Ricciardo’s Warning Message To Everyone Watching
McLaren’s new duo of Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris are often seen as two of the most easy-going and fun-loving drivers on the current grid and as teammates, there are expectations from fans that these two will form some sort of a comedic pairing. Daniel Ricciardo feels otherwise and he has now explained why to Sky Sports Link to poll: https://www.youtube.com/post/UgyhSAavorwqEZZDEhF4AaABCQ 0:00 - Ricciardo Warns Against Fan Expectations 1:26 - Fast Feed Ricciardo started off reminiscing about the podiums he scored with his former team Renault “I mean, generally, I am happy, I really am. I feel like there was certainly a lot of pressure externally and even internally to get the podium and we managed to do it twice” He then emphasised the importance of those podiums “I can honestly leave here feeling fulfilled. I think importantly for myself feeling like I contributed something back to this team. Really it was the podiums, and just to see the joy not only on my face but also on the team’s face. It had been so long” He then addressed the expectations fans have for his upcoming stint with McLaren alongside Lando Norris “It's something I want to reiterate to everyone watching, and every fan of McLaren in particular” “It's not going to be a comedy show. I'm going there for business, I'm going there to improve the car” He signed off by reemphasizing his point of view "My personality won't change so I think I do enjoy doing what I do... but I'm certainly not going there to be this meme power couple or whatever it's described as these days!” Fast Feed Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz has joked that his career isn’t following a trajectory similar to that of Alpine’s Fernando Alonso as he has “already driven at Renault, but” he “didn't get the two world championships” He added that Alonso “has been an extremely strong driver, and there will never be another Fernando Alonso” He also explained that Alonso “was the first, a pioneer in many ways, and” that he is “just trying to make” his “own career” He further stated that he has his “own way of doing things, of seeing things, of driving and” he “will see where that takes” him 2009 world champion Jenson Button has suggested that “there are so many positives to” the Extreme E championship and he’s “really excited about it” He confirmed that he is “looking forward to racing against the best in the world, in places that most people have never been” to Former F1 driver Jos Verstappen thinks that they “were fighting more with the car” during their time “because they weren't as balanced” He, however, accepts that “the G-forces experienced with modern Formula One cars are much higher” He further feels that “if you are good, you can adapt to any car. Whether it's a Formula One or a GT, you just have to adapt to the situation” Fernando Alonso “had other things on” his “mind, and” his “head was busy with IndyCar and the 'Triple Crown' goal” when he previously decided to step away from F1 He added that he “had too many things in” his “head that were not F1 related. F1 was not attractive to” him “at that time, it didn't offer what other series offered” He further “thought this was the right time to come back, even with the new regulations in 2022” “after completing some of those challenges” he had set for himself “missing only the Indy500” Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto has confirmed that “Maya Weug will compete in a Formula 4 championship, which is considered the first step in single-seaters on the road to Formula 1” He added that “this is a key moment in the history of Scuderia Ferrari and its Academy” “Thanks to the collaboration with the FIA in the Girls on Track: Rising Stars program, for the first time a female driver will join the Ferrari Driver Academy” McLaren’s Technical Director James Key has divulged that the character trait that he finds most impressive in Daniel Ricciardo is the “massive amount of determination he has” He further pointed out that this is “particularly when he’s driving; you can really feel and see that. He’s a very different character to when he’s out of the car and relaxed” Are you expecting Daniel Ricciardo and Lando Norris to become an F1 “meme power-couple”?
Would Leclerc Leave Ferrari For Mercedes?
As the record-breaking seven-time consecutive Constructors’ and Drivers’ Championship winners, Mercedes are considered by many to have the most coveted cars on the grid today.

All I want now is to take our engine and car back to the highest level. I am pretty sure that we will be able to do that” Fast Feed Prince Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia feels that his country “was criticised for being closed off to the world” but they have now “opened up” He further added that if they “can use sport to bring people together and understand Saudi Arabia, why not?” after Saudi Arabia was confirmed as one of the race locations for 2021 Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto confirmed that “next year” they “will probably get a completely new engine, according to the rules” He further divulged that this “engine is currently on the dyno and” thinks “the feedback, around performance and reliability, is very positive“ 2009 world champion Jenson Button is of the opinion that Red Bull’s Max “Verstappen sets up the car in such a way that it is undriveable for other drivers” AlphaTauri team principal Franz Tost has stated that F2 driver Yuki Tsunoda “was immediately familiar with the car and once it got dry, he also managed to improve his times very quickly” during his test with the team He is also “positive that” they “will have a competitive car in Istanbul” Yuki, meanwhile, stated that he thought he “had a strong neck, but now it turns out it is not strong enough” He further elaborated that his “head always went forward when” he “braked.

Grosjean Openly Reveals Why Haas Didn't Re-Sign Him and Magnussen
While it was rumored that Haas will be dropping one of their drivers, they have now confirmed that they will be replacing both drivers. While many reasons have been suggested, the outgoing drivers and team principal Guenther Steiner have now revealed the real reasons why the team chose to go down this road Link to poll: https://www.youtube.com/post/UgzFdvDW3Yi547naFDx4AaABCQ 0:00 - Haas Looking At Drivers With Money 2:02 - Fast Feed I'm your host Dillon Shelley and first up on Formula World: Haas Looking At Drivers With Money Romain Grosjean began by explaining how he already knew that the writing was on the wall and why he was still surprised “I knew probably one of us would be out at the end of the year, just because the situation around the world and Covid has made it very hard financially for a lot of companies around the world, so I knew one of us would go out” He then divulged the reason Steiner gave him for dropping both drivers “I said to Guenther on the call when he called me that I was expecting one of us [to leave], and he said, ‘No, for financial reasons, I need both of you out.’ So, fair enough, I fully understand. It's been a tough year with Covid in a lot of industries and companies have suffered from it. The team is going a different path and I wish them luck and the best for the future” Kevin Magnussen then shed some light on his situation “I can't bring the kind of backing that you need in Formula 1. I have sponsors and I have partners, but it's not at all big in this world, and it's not enough to make a difference really, for me” Guenther Steiner offered more details including what they could be looking for in their future drivers “We wanted some change going forward. We just need to see how we go forward with the budget cap, where we invest best our money and what we do. So that was the reason, we want to make a change to what we are doing and we need to get prepared for the new regulations in 2022 when it is a new world for everybody” He further elaborated on this while adding that financially backed drivers will be on their list “We could be [looking for a driver with money and talent] as well. Talent always needs to be there, not only money, talent is more important, but some people have got sponsorship they bring with them so we are looking at all the options out there as well” He signed off by hinting at the timeframe for an announcement on their future driver line-up “The market is pretty small this year, I think we have lucked into that one this year, which is why we are not in a hurry to make the announcement” Fast Feed Racing Point’s Lance Stroll feels that “in hindsight, yes” he “should have got tested” but at that time, he “didn’t think” he “had Covid” His teammate Sergio Perez has said that if he joins another team in F1 “the team must have a nice project. Otherwise” he “won't go” Williams’ George Russell has stated that he has “a contract for next year. From a contractual point of view, nothing has changed with the arrival of the new owners” He added that he hasn’t “talked to the new owners about” his “contract yet, mainly because” he’s “not worried about that” The FIA has confirmed that in view of the current pandemic, they have reduced points required to get a super license from 40 to 30 A driver can score 30 points by finishing in the top four of the Formula 2 championship or by winning the Formula 3 championship Kevin Magnussen accepts that he hasn’t “won any races in seven years and it wouldn't happen in 2021 if” he “continued in Formula 1” “That is why” he is “now looking for a new challenge in other classes” added Magnussen Ferrari’s Head of Performance Development Enrico Cardile feels “that the rear end offers the biggest margin for improvement” on their car He added that this is “because it's the area of the car where pretty significant changes have been introduced in the technical regulations” and “because of the way” their “car is laid out” He also added that “it is essential that” they “know the concepts” they “are working on now are the right one, so as not to lose time in 2021” Guenther Steiner “would like to thank both Romain (Grosjean) and Kevin (Magnussen) for their hard work and commitment to the Haas F1 Team over the past seasons” He added that “Romain was a fundamental part of” their “company as” they “tried to get a driver on board with both speed and experience” He further stated that “When Kevin joined a season later”, they “saw an immediate return with both cars scoring points” He also appreciated “their input and experience to continue the team to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in December” Do you agree with Haas not sign signing either of their current drivers for next season?
Why Alonso Was Surprised After Driving 2020 Renault Car
Initially when it was announced that Fernando Alonso would be making a return to F1 with Renault, many felt that it wasn’t a wise decision as Renault weren’t seen as overly competitive. However, they have been improving steadily and have since scored a podium finish. Alonso also got a taste of the 2020 car during a filming day recently. He has now given his opinion on the current Renault car Link to poll: https://www.youtube.com/post/UgyYswg7mPB79D0UhJJ4AaABCQ 0:00 - Alonso Surprised By Renault’s Progress 4:51 - Fast Feed Alonso began by describing how it felt to drive an F1 car again It felt amazing to be able to drive these cars after two years and feel the speed again, how everything comes so fast, corner after corner, the performance under braking and all the things a Formula 1 car has to offer. To feel it once again felt nice. The filming day was held in Barcelona which happens to be Alonso’s home track. He gave his thoughts on that Of course. It made it special to be back in Barcelona. I remember the year 2000, I drove the Benetton here with the Enstone guys. Now, in 2020, it’s with Renault, so it’s a special track and I have lots of good memories here. It’s a track I know very well, so it’s been a good day. Alonso then elaborated on everything he did during this test program Most of the day was a little bit of filming with some drones on track and some action behind the camera. At the same time, it was about working with the team to do a couple of laps and for me to find comfort in the seat, the steering wheel and the pedals. These are things for next year which, over winter, could be very tight. It’s our first steps. He then explained why the car and the engine surprised him while accepting that he couldn’t push the car to its limits I think the car was a nice surprise. We know the car is performing well at the last couple of races and I felt the grip and certainly good potential in it. Also the engine, the last time I drove a Renault engine was in 2018 and I felt a step forwards, which is quite important there. Everything felt good. I wasn’t able to maximise the performance of the car because I’m not up to speed yet, but I’m happy with the day. He further explained how he is already feeling at home with the team I felt at home already from day one. There is this atmosphere at Enstone, and in this team, that everything is so simple and logical in everything they do. I’m comfortable here with Renault. A lot of the people who worked today, worked as mechanics in my days in the team. When you know the faces and the team, everything comes a little easier. Alonso then gave his impressions on the team’s recent performances including Daniel Ricciardo’s podium Absolutely, I watch every race. I’m in the weekend even from a distance. I follow every lap. The podium was very well deserved, finally. I’m so happy for everyone. Cyril might be a bit worried for the tattoo but, other than that, it was a fantastic moment. He also revealed how he congratulated the team after their first podium in 10 years Yes, absolutely. I was waiting for the last lap. I was so happy for everyone. I wrote the message and then had my finger on send until Daniel crossed the line. I didn’t want to send it in case for luck reasons! Alonso signed off by responding to whether the podium makes him more excited for his return next year I’m still the same after Sunday. I know what the team is capable of and I know the prospects for the future are good. The podium is a thing that had to happen. Most important thing is to follow the trend that we see now, keep the momentum into next year, especially for 2022, and I think we know how to do it. Fast Feed Renault’s Daniel Ricciardo stated Hamilton “has been in the sport for over a decade now and it is not easy to keep showing that level of consistency” He also feels that “the gift he received, one of Michael's helmets, is one of the coolest gifts” he has “seen in the sport” Sidelined F1 driver Nico Hulkenberg has explained that “everything happened so fast” during the race at the Nurburgring McLaren’s Carlos Sainz has divulged that he “didn't feel comfortable in the car” after the latest upgrades were installed His teammate Lando Norris reaffirmed this by stating that when he “had the new parts on” his car and he “never really felt confident” Ferrari's sports director, Laurent Mekies feels that their junior drivers “are at the point where” they are getting close to the level of Formula 1” Toto Wolff has said that “from a sporting point of view” the suggestion to reduce race weekends to just Saturdays and Sundays gets his “vote” His driver Lewis Hamilton agrees as “it means that 22 days a year, 20 less cars will tear around the track and pollute the air” Sebastian Vettel, however, feels that “the preparation for the Grand Prix will then take place behind closed doors” which won’t be good for the fans Which Ferrari junior should be first to get an F1 seat?

Enter at this link before the end of the month - https://formula.world/100k-giveaway/ Link to poll: https://www.youtube.com/post/UgzpZoWJ_sQFsNpaQdt4AaABCQ 0:00 - Ferrari Need To Make A Very Very Very Very Big Step – Sainz 1:35 - Fast Feed I'm your host Dillon Shelley and first up on Formula World: Ferrari Need To Make A Very Very Very Very Big Step – Sainz While speaking to Sky, Sainz began by giving his thoughts on the current performance of the Ferrari cars “Yeah obviously not good. I know they are the first ones that are not happy with the performance this year” He then explained why Ferrari is struggling so much at Spa and elaborated on how it isn’t the normal trend in F1 “When you lose so much power from one year to the other which is actually not the normal trend in Formula 1. Normally you are expecting to stay the same or gain but when you lose so much power you know that in Spa you're gonna get in trouble” “So, I think it's an abnormality to see Ferrari so far back. But it is normal after what we saw in the first race how much they're losing on the straights” He then went into the details of what he will do as soon as he becomes a Ferrari driver “I’m going to be completely honest, of course, I want [more power]. I mean I’m the first one that will be there in the factory pushing to find more power and I’m pushing everyone as soon as I get there” “Ferrari has a lot of resources, a lot of power benches so I’m sure they are there at the factory working extremely hard to get the power that they've lost from one year to another” He summed up his words by putting forward his thoughts on what Ferrari need to do while reaffirming his faith in the team to turn things around “And it's a long way, they need to do a very very very very big step in order to get back to where we all are but I think if someone can do it is Ferrari” Fast Feed Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel revealed that they “tried everything that” they “can and a lot of effort went into” car “to try and make things better” but it’s “not enough” Mercedes’s Valtteri Bottas feels that he needs “to attack if” he “still” wants “to keep the title hopes” Reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton divulged that he “woke up to the news of Chadwick Boseman passing away and that news broke” him and that “it wasn't easy to get back in focus but” he “wanted to drive to perfection for him” Renault’s managing director Cyril Abiteboul reiterated that he has “always said that” they're “not desperate for a customer team. But of course, it would be better to have partner teams in the paddock” He further elaborated that “it would be important for the further development of the engine - and also politically” Red Bull team principal Christian Horner thinks that Mercedes “love to hype up how others are the favorites” but “they’re going to be tough when they turn their engine modes up” He also added that Red Bull “also have the right countermeasures in the pipeline, which hopefully will work out well” in closing the gap to the Mercs He also pointed out that “Mercedes is like a well-oiled machine, a machine in which a lot of money is put into it. Their total package is simply very good” Toto Wolff, meanwhile, is of the opinion that they “are 30 points ahead. That's nothing” and that they “always knew it wouldn't be easy and” they “can't sit back and relax” Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto indicated that they “lacked grip when braking and accelerating and therefore performance in the car” He also accepted that they “certainly weren't competitive” Former F1 driver Giedo van der Garde feels that "surely” Ferrari “have something to show” why they are slow as “there has to be something behind it” If you were Sainz, would you be doubting your switch to Ferrari?
Stephen Curry All 402 Three-Pointers Full Highlights (2015-2016 Season Three-ilation Part II)
The campus of Oxford University was quiet. In the chilly early-morning air, the only disturbance was the nearly inaudible rustling of Stephen’s clothes as he attempted to find a way into the history building. Stephen squinted up at the rows of windows. One of them had to be left open, somewhere; given the temperature in the building yesterday, it was a safe assumption that the place had never been retrofitted with air conditioning. The clouds obscuring the moon made it difficult to see very much, but Stephen was thankful for them; he was able to carry a ladder underneath his arm with little fear of being seen by a sleepless student glancing out a window. After walking around the entire building and scrutinizing it carefully, Stephen saw the outline of a swung-open windowpane on the building’s southern wall. Wasting no time, he propped his ladder against the wall and climbed up. Soon, he was standing in an office on the third floor. Still taking pains to be quiet, not knowing whether housekeeping would be working this late, he went down to the ground floor where Professor Martin Doyle’s office was located. Stephen was glad to find the door unlocked; he would not have to waste time picking the centuries-old mechanism. He entered the dark office directly, taking out a small, dim flashlight to search for what he sought. Doyle’s aversion to any discussion about the three-point amulet had betrayed his knowledge of it; Stephen was hopeful that there would be some notes or correspondence on the matter. In contrast to the office itself, Doyle’s cabinets were all locked, but a solid whack with the butt-end of the flashlight rectified that inconvenience. Stephen searched with as much haste as he could afford, not knowing when activity in the building would resume In one of the cabinets, tucked behind endless academic journals and hard-copy departmental memos, he found a yellowed, crumbling manuscript. Carefully extracting it from its hiding place, Stephen read the title: “Concerning the Creation and Ensorcellment of Magickal Objects, the Techniques thereof, and how Practitioners thereof Must be Qualified.” There was no publisher or publication date listed, but Stephen did not doubt that he was holding an authentic copy of a 15th-century occult text. Inserted between the cover page and the first page of text was a handwritten note, presumably left by Doyle himself: “I have given Dr. Bird the information he requested from the ‘Magickal Objects…’ text. I am, however, beginning to question his credentials, given the uneducated manner in which he writes his letters; I would not like to damage a relationship with a fellow scholar of the Medieval cabalistic arts, so I keep my concerns to myself. I can only hope that his interest in enchantments is purely academic, as he claims…” The picture was becoming clearer. Larry had indeed spoken to Doyle all those decades ago, and he had used the gained knowledge to create an enchanted three-point shooting amulet just before the NBA would institute the three-point line. Doyle had somehow become aware not only of the amulet, but also its insidious effect on any who dared wear it, and he was determined to never again let such an object be created. But now, the arcane manuscript had been discovered, and its heretical secrets would soon be divulged. Stephen picked it up again and opened to a random page, awed by the intricate diagrams and captivated by the obscure writings… “What are you doing in my office?” came a cold voice from behind Stephen’s seated position at the desk. Stephen’s heart sank as he realized that he had become so lost in the manuscript that it was now fully morning, sunlight streaming through the window. Wordlessly, Stephen tucked the manuscript under his arm and charged at the door. Rather than get run over by the younger, more athletic man, Doyle stepped out the way and grabbed feebly at Stephen’s retreating form. “Stop! Stop!” the scholar yelled, but Stephen knew that he could not stop. Campus security would be called at any moment. He would be detained and his precious document would be taken away from him. No, the only choice was to keep running. “I know who you are!” Doyle accusingly shouted from far down the hallway. “You’re Stephen Curry!” Stephen was so stunned that, for a moment, he had to resist the impulse to stop running. How did the man know his identity? There was no time to think. He burst through the front doors of the building and ran towards the Oxford city center. Finally, he reached a dingy alley where he could catch his breath. The police would have been called by now, surely. He had precious little time to get out of the country. But the inconvenience of being hunted by law enforcement paled in comparison to the new power that Stephen felt surging through his body, power borne in the knowledge that the secrets of the three-point shooting amulet would soon be unveiled before him.
