Think it'll be fairly chill at Alpine, Sauber and Williams and Alonso and Lawson will toe the line. Ferrari definitely has potential but LeClerc seems to blame himself more than anyone else. I could see Piastri being an issue for Norris this season. Bearman and Ocon will get on until they hit each other.

Tried something new today, carbon rear wheel, lighter front wheel stolen from the Arkose and some 35c slicks. Maybe it was the heavy load on the front mixed with dropping a tooth on the rear but it felt pretty sluggish. Might try some 30c road tyres with a view to getting a disc hub on the carbon track wheelset but for now I reckon this'll go back to the 38mm GKs and a lower gear.

These look interesting, will see if i can get them to drop into the office.

No worries. that's a G95 porcelain in the photo which i like as you have less glare at full output with the larger surface area. If you want a trad style/size go for the A60.

Which dim-to-warm bulbs are you using?
Zico. I've tested quite a few lamps including Tala and Calex and these are the best per £ i've found. They dim a lot better than Tala and the porcelain E27 lamps maintain uniform brightness when dimmed unlike others that just go gloomy. They work well with high end controls (DALI/DMX) but i have them working nicely on basic Varilight rotary dimmers in my home.
Couple dimmed/warmed samples below in a £5 Ikea pendant.

So much better than mine with that massive drop. The uplight is a bit ugly on the ceiling as i only have a 300mm drop and it needs more. What bulb are you using?
I have the Hay globes with large dim to warm bulbs, Factorylux rose and cables. Less than £100 and are much nicer than a lot of expensive kit that i come across.

What would look good here ?
Are you willing to trade light levels with aesthetics? A PH lamp would be nice but is fairly hopeless for anything other than daytime photos to be posted on LFGSS.
I love a paper pendant if you have a decent bulb. Akari probably not 500 times better but Hay might be 50.
Excuse image quality, a nice memory courtesy of Google. 7 years ago up a big hill in Wales apparently. Going to start mapping out 2025 road trips soon, be great to get out to BPW.
