I've got a long road trip coming up for a move to Virginia, I'll have to see if I can't download the season from Netflix to watch during times I'm a passenger. I've heard that it's been a decent improvement over season 3, and I'm hyped enough for the next season I'm sure I'll enjoy it regardless.

I wonder if the Ferrari engines are cheating again. 😄

Finally! as a Ferrari fan it was a long wait for some fireworks. 

Besides that.. and only watching the first 20 laps of the race, I'm not sure yet if the changes impacted positively in easier overtakes. On paper the cars now suffers less dirty air behind another car, but it was hard to see that on track.

Another good race for Ferrari. I think Perez got a little screwed or he would have been on podium with Max but...no dice. I have to say, it's strange watching Hamilton drive around in a car that can't compete. Someone's head is gonna roll at Mercedes.

Ha ha. One of the visor tear-offs got stuck to Max's car and casually at 180+ MPH he tries repeatedly to get it off.

Ferrari and Mercedes both had the most "wild" car concepts for this year, with the two of them being so opposite one another (maximum sidepod vs virtually no sidepods), and it's fun to see that one of the really unique car designs is (so far) the most successful of the pack. I would have never guessed that a pair of bathtubs on either side was the ideal design, but they're definitely getting results.

Yeah, but… at the same time, Red Bull is still faster in the straights than even Ferrari. Which is interesting, because that's where Red Bull wasn't great last year, while they were really fast in the corners.

I was hoping for a better result from the Haas cars. After the first two weeks I thought maybe they could compete with the other mid-level teams. They still might.

It's going to be interesting to watch development for the coming months, and even the coming year or two. It will be interesting to see how upgrades shake up the order, particularly as teams figure out how to better solve porpoising issues with improved suspension designs. I'm more interested in seeing how the budget cap affects the development of various teams, with big names like Mercedes, Red Bull, and Ferrari used to spending more than twice as much as they're allowed to nowadays with other teams more accustomed to slimmer budgets. It will be interesting to see if the larger names have better efficiency or just had deeper pockets, and whether that helps keep things constantly fresh or if it just locks in a set order for the regulations with not enough room for innovation to overcome initial disadvantages.

A good weekend for Red Bull. Ferrari took a dump on their home track. Not really a fan for or against Ferrari so it doesn't really matter to me. Still waiting for Haas...

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      By boogielicious · Posted

      The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
