I didn't have time to read all the responses - but my F1 fans (the few watching) said, Bowyer knocked out my boy...They were talking about oversteer - understeer LMAO

Gotta love them with their F1 terminology. They watch NASCAR for the giggles

chefsos 06-01-2014 03:04 PM

LMAOThey didn't talk about Kyle chasing Bowyer past the field under caution, trying to retaliate, while his radio was blaring, "Stop, Kyle. Kyle! Kyle! Stop!"

chefsos 06-01-2014 03:09 PM

Can't help but think all those guys who pitted are gonna eat up the ones who did not. Cluster****, incoming.

chefsos 06-01-2014 03:12 PM

Never mind. 48 checks out.

They are watching the race from outside of the U.S. They are not listening to radio chatter. A few subscribe to Race Buddy, However, I read two posts, and stopped when I read oversteers and understeers.

chefsos, Did something happen in the cars corners?

Dylan 06-01-2014 03:18 PM

Good Job Jimmie!

Congratulations!

Not sure what you mean. Please clarify your query and resubmit.

Dylan 06-01-2014 03:31 PM

Oh well, Bowyer apologized to Kyle during the post race interview.

Things happen.

chefsos 06-01-2014 03:37 PM

Yeah, what he said is pretty much what I saw. Kyle had a little piece of fender outside him, and the spotter said, "clear." (Assuming FOX had the audio and video synched up here) He wasn't. Pounded Kyle into the wall good.

That chase down the front straight was funny, though.

Did the crash take place shortly after the cars came off the corner?

I was curious why they used the terms oversteer and understeer describing the crash between Bowyer and Kyle.

Oversteer and understeer are the way a car corners. However, NASCAR doesn't use that terminology.

It sounded like it was a racing deal after listening to Bowyer describe the crash.

I have to subscribe to NASCAR's RaceView Audio. I usually do - It's fun listening to the chatter during a race.

Oh, OK. yeah. They were coming off turn 4 when Kyle got outside of Bowyer, and he got run into the wall at the beginning of the front straight.

Tell 'em, "tight" and "loose". I remember Buddy Baker once described the difference: "When you are tight, you see the wreck."

Dylan 06-01-2014 03:52 PM

Thanks, chefsos!

I appreciate you taking the extra time to answer my question.

Love the Buddy Baker reference.

There is some heavy (kind of funny and crazy) stuff going on between two teammates (Hamilton / Rosberg) that F1 fans and the international media cannot stop talking about.

Next F1 race is in Canada. Sparks will fly, again, between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg. One of these drivers will most likely win the Formula One World Drivers' Championship in November.

F1 schedule have 19 races per year.

The terminology is interesting and not hard to learn –

‘Team Orders:’ There is always a plan before and during a race between team owners and teammates.

One example: ‘Hold Station’ which has been banned from Formula 1 early 2000. However, it is still used today – Although, it is worded differently over the radio. Those words are supposed to determine winners or position on the track between teammates for various reasons.

Teams usually hire a No. 1 and No. 2 drivers to pilot their machines. Nevertheless, when a team hires two No. 1 drivers, it is pure drama on and off the track.

I believe the way to be hooked in motorsports is getting to know the stories about the drivers.

Got any recommended links for F1 411?

I like watching, but never know when they're on. I think David Hobbs would be a great person to meet at a pub somewhere. It's worth watching an entire broadcast just to hear him say "he's done blowed up."

TIA
