Jesus, I hope they can piece a campaign together in the few remaining months

I didn't think you could make a handy 1-2 and a maiden win feel this awkward, but here we are!

Yup, the lab could tell a difference! Shiney side (so mill roller facing, as opposed to the dull side which faces the other layer of aluminum) was marginally more reflective, but I believe (and a former coworker also remembered it as) it was less than a tenth of a percent (<0.1% for the visual folks)

Anyone who says it affects cooking time or something is mistaken, I'd wager.

Former process engineer in an aluminum factory. Aluminum foil is only shiny on one side and duller on the other for process reasons, not for any "turn this part towards baking, etc" reasons.

It's just easier to double it on itself and machine it to double thickness than it is to hit single thickness precision, especially given how much more tensile strength it gives it.

Also, our QA lab did all kinds of tests on it to settle arguments. The amount of heat reflected/absorbed between the two sides is trivially small. But if you like one side better you should wrap it that way, for sure!

That was a fun hot ones. Struggled, but sent it anyway. Nothing to promote or sell. Some fun anecdotes. I liked it! Hope more F1 drivers get to go on the show.

This is why you keep your safety features consistent. If they want bag close mode, then make it where you hold instead of press a button or something. It "happening automatically" is just unpredictable to most, not magical

Man, that move to Merc looked sooooo dumb from the outside, and it was obviously one of (or the) best F1 career move there's ever been.

If he gets that right twice, Ham is 100% the goat of career management

Wow, this is wild.

Go to Williams you coward!
