#62This reminds me of a principle I like: Once you understand your key traits and the key things customers come to you for, it's good to embody them everywhere! F1 is largely about speed. (I fondly remember going to various races as a child with my grandparents, in Melbourne. Everyone seemed in awe of Schumacher). So of course your website should be about speed! This could then apply to everything: ticket turnstiles tha…
There should be a DRS button on the website too!
Sure, but you can only use it if you arrive at the website within a second from the visitor before you.

Very cool but is it possible that there are not links to the actual websites?

#64We really didnt care at all about the load-time for this marketing gimmick made by some one-time contractor. We built fast cars instead.

My favorite real world example of this was adding a bunch of 2-tone graphics to a website that looked like hand-drawn sketches. The designer insisted they have to be SVG because vector graphics scale better. The SVG was 20MB. The PNG version at huge resolution was 20kB. PNG is really good when you have a few flat colors. SVG is really bad when you have lots of fine detail.
Fine detail isn’t really the metric to use when thinking of SVG size. 20MB just sounds like a catastrophic degenerate export from shitty software
They said halftone, so I imagine every pixel became a circle.

The website does not fall under the budget cap, there is plenty of money to go around which cannot be used for racing anyway.
Indeed! Ferrari literally started racing again in Le Mans Series because they didn't want to have engineers sitting around or fire them due to the F1 budget cap. Instead they redirected (very successfully) their additional resources elsewhere.
Didn't know about this, what a totally cool result of a normally mundane action (re-allocation of business resources)

Totally honestly, it was a lot of work, I got bored, and it was diminishing returns for the later parts.

Fair enough, it was still a fun read!
