  • I mean, the thing they can do in real time is not routinely go off the track. And if that means fucking up a lap and going slow, then that driver has to accept that they can’t drive quite as fast on this track. If they want to build a new track that’s a couple feet wider on a few corners, go for it - but it wouldn’t be the Redbull Ring. Here, in Austria, you have to go at a speed at which you can stay in between the white lines. Some managed it. No sympathy for those who didn’t, it’s either a choice or a skill issue, neither of which I mind penalising.




  • I have to say I’ve never seen people let their water sit or boil it, and I’ve been all over the place since 2010 in Spain. I know for hard (not heavy :)) water you can install (expensive) systems between the incoming water and your taps that can soften it, but I don’t know how common they are. I would drink the tap water from any town in Spain without a second thought. Wouldn’t you? A finca in the countryside, I might be sceptical, or a service station in the middle of nowhere, maybe not, but any “built-up” area, for sure.
