I had to clear the app cache and local storage before it would work. Cache alone didn't work.

/r/snakes was surprisingly active given our fairly niche position in the greater pet community.

Liftoff hasn't acknowledged me as logged in when voting or commenting for the last day, despite showing it on my user tab. I'm assuming that's related to the recent hack, but I've tried clearing the cash, logging in and out, and restarting the app with no success.

I'm not talking about advertising money, I'm talking about them contributing to the fees paid to the FIA to host the actual Grand Prix. The organizers lost money on that race most years. It ran, and 2019 was no exception.

One of my friends has truck nuts on his 70's moped, and it gets a laugh out of people wherever he goes.

I'd like to believe my Honda Ridgeline is the exception to this, but truck bros don't acknowledge it as a real truck anyway.

GM has stated plans to build their own Cadillac-badged F1 engine starting in 2026, provided the bid gets approved.

Mercedes the company put a boatload of money into the German GP and lost a fair amount of it.

There can't be more than one GP with the same name, which is why we've had names like the Luxembourg, San Marino, European, Pacific GPs, etc.

The rest of the teams don't want to expand the grid because they believe it'll make their entries less valuable should any of the owners decide to sell.

Who on the grid does? Ferrari, Alpine, Honda, and Mercedes build engines, outside of that the rest of the teams are building tightly regulated cars. Andretti is one of the biggest names in American motorsport, they're attempting to bring in a new engine supplier and one of the biggest car companies in the world, and they have the money to do it. What more can be reasonably asked of them?
