What are you guys' headcanons for what the foxes' majors would be? (as in alternative majors that you think they would take, not their canon ones)
#I'm actually just curious#personally I'm an english lit andrew truther tho I can also see him doing law#aaron seems like a civil engineering type of guy or pharmaceutical science maybe#I'd say physics for neil#history suits kevin too well so idk but perhaps archeology????#social work for renee? or maybe anthropology#wait actually neil also fits linguistics#I genuinely think allison would major in art history or architecture#dan: education#matt: geology (don't ask why)#nicky: philosophy or communications#I forgot katelyn#anyway I think she would do forensics tbh#aftg#all for the game

ROBO-MATES
In a future where humans utilize, hire, and even befriend machines, an eccentric engineer is looking to find a robot partner of her own. (Her classmates laughed at her back in kindergarten for even the idea- but look at the world now.)
However, her methods for getting a robot love are quite... extreme. She developed a program called Robo Mates, which allowed people to share robots to quote unquote "be paired with their one true match", when in actuality all the robots went to her.
With her being picky however most of the robots ended up killed in the end. And the engineer still ends up with most of the funds.
But two strange events happen: one, she comes across a busted robot in a dumpster who she calls Blue Betty- B.B. for short, and who she thinks is the one after all the failures.
The second strange event? B.B. seems to be in love with the engineer's sane friend, Allison... and much to the Engineer's shagrin, Allison seems to feel the same.
Of course, if she's killed dozens of robots to find her one true love, one measly friend won't stand in the way, either.
Rated TV-14 for violence (and some dialogue).

So, it happened. Here’s the thing: Binotto out doesn’t necessarily have to be a bad thing.
And no matter which way you spin it he just wasn’t a good leader and should never have been in a Team Principal position, not to mention he certainly should never have occupied the Technical Director and Team Principal position at the same time, that’s madness. But he wanted to be the top dog so bad they let him get what he wants just so he wouldn’t leave. And his tenure was... a mixed bag.
2019 looked promising, until it became obvious that they can’t quite mount a title challenge like they could in previous years. Then the “illegal engine” fiasco. By all means, create an ingenious grey area solution to make your car faster, no problems there. But then have the political prowess to defend it. Maybe it’s an unpopular opinion, but I can’t see RB or Mercedes being hit so hard by the “illegal engine” saga, I mean, to the point where they end up in the midfield? Come on. Nothing happened with Merc’s DAS, they were allowed to use it for the rest of the year even though the technology officially became outlawed for the future. RB gets away with basically a slap on the wrist for creative accounting. TD039 (this year’s technical directive) was introduced after Mercedes pushed for it. Who did it hit hardest? Ferrari. Like them or hate them, Horner and Wolff are both strong leaders who will pull out all the stops if they see an opportunity for their respective teams, and the consequences are usually minimal.
So, Binotto is given credit for getting Ferrari out of a midfield rut (you can question whether they should’ve avoided ending up in that position in the first place). Great. Carte blanche for 2022, he can do whatever he wants, as long as he delivers the ultimate goal (the championship). Because that... was the goal, at least at the beginning, and it came from his own mouth. Of course, that was the problem with Binotto, this inconsistency, contradiction, constant verbal moving of the goalposts. Maybe a handful of victories is enough. Maybe just showing up to compete is enough. Who knows.
A few promising victories followed by a string of reliability issues (which are, to be honest, forgivable, considering it’s year one of the new regulation cycle), bizarre strategy calls, lack of authority regarding team orders (this is the same man who wasn’t afraid to pull the trigger Piglet when it came to Seb and Charles in 2019 btw, and that wasn’t a title contending year), lack of clear driver hierarchy, modifications that actually make the car slower (but more comfortable for one of the drivers, such success), a dogged defense of said bizarre strategies to the media (including a childish shunning of any journalist who dared disagree that Hungary was a resounding strategic success), patronizing behaviour and frequent undermining comments regarding one’s own driver (the finger-wagging incident and borderline gaslighting whenever Charles suggested the strategy/tyre wear/etc. might’ve been what failed them). And all of that to deliver a grand total of four wins in a twenty two race season (but I thought there’s no reason they can’t win 10 races in a row? 🤔).
Now. Do Ferrari’s problems extend beyond Binotto? Yes. Should they, ideally, continue overhauling the trackside team (starting with Rueda)? Absolutely. That doesn’t mean, however, that one man should be virtually “unfireable,” especially when he proves he’s unfit for the position he currently occupies. Being a skilled engineer doesn’t necessarily make one suitable for a public, media-facing position. He doesn’t have the pull, the charisma, for that. And that’s fine! But it does become a problem when he had insisted on taking that role. Ideally he would’ve returned to the factory to continue being an engineer, resuming his pre-2019 role. Perhaps he was offered such a position, we don’t know. I doubt Ferrari wanted to lose him altogether. Unfortunately, it seems his personal ambition and ego stood in the way of him accepting anything less than full-blooded leadership, which is why he resigned.
#formula 1#discussions and predictions#long post#im sure they would've liked to keep him on as an engineer but he doesn't want that!! he wants power he wants to be king of the hill!!#honestly i'm just concerned he's spiteful enough to purposefully fuck up the 2023 car as revenge or whatever#yeah he might go to another team and that might be a loss. like james allison turned out to be a huge loss#but james allison isn't staging coups to usurp toto wolff y'know. and binotto couldn't even if he joined merc because they'd never let him#so if he does go elsewhere he's going to be just another engineer nothing senior nothing special#and that might be enough for him - to land somewhere else that isn't ferrari and try to beat them that way#but he evidently had ambitions for something beyond being stuck in a factory so idk

Well there's one turbine engine (mostly) disassembled :] If I remember right, this little guy has 600 horsies inside, that's a lot of ponies!
Still got more to do with Allison's specialty tools. Going to take these turbine sections and the compressor down to it's basic parts. Fun stuff! Can't wait to start playing with the other types of big round engines here in a few weeks. 😁

I wonder if Sanchez left Ferrari on his own accord for a better position elsewhere or if he left by "mutual agreement" because they're cleaning up the team 👀
#*2016 was flashbacks*#to when allison left and a bunch of engineers left soon after as well#internal restructuring etc etc#anyways Sanchez was a Binotto man#so 👀#f1#Ferrari

Discussion of Vasseur having difficulty hiring in boffins due to previous treatment of recruited employees under prior management.
Frederic Vasseur is trying to renew Ferrari's technical team and is looking for new specialists. So far he has reportedly managed to attract Mercedes performance director Luc Serra. Through him he tried to talk to Red Bull technical boss Pierre Vaché, but there was no success. Even if he found good engineers, however, the Ferrari boss was having problems. According to the famous Italian journalist Leo Turrini, one of the reasons for them is that in Formula 1 they are well aware of the treatment of James Allison while he was technical director of Scuderia."
Linking to a reddit thread as it includes the english translation (via deepl) and indicates related references. This particular bulgarian source is unfamiliar to me but cites a Leo Turrini piece from summer 2023 which i can't be arsed to track down atm no doubt others can call to hand.
ETA. It was on Turrini's August 17, 2023 blog. Is this just him throwing shit at the wall? IDK. Obviously the newly bereaved Allison was in a special circumstance and I'm sure the complicated politics / revolving management wouldn't make it easy for anyone.
