I thought the whole thing with diesels was they had more torque than petrol cars of a similar engine size

You forced me to google Torque.

How is the below related to a car?

Torque is a measure of how much a force acting on an object causes that object to rotate. The object rotates about an axis, which we will call the pivot point, and will label 'O'. We will call the force 'F'. The distance from the pivot point to the point where the force acts is called the moment arm, and is denoted by 'r'. Note that this distance, 'r', is also a vector, and points from the axis of rotation to the point where the force acts. (Refer to Figure 1 for a pictoral representation of these definitions.)

Compression ratios or some such malarkey.

Have you referred to Figure 1?

scored from 2 in the last game

There's some stat that says we've scored more goals from corners than any other PL side in the last 2 seasons

something, something about hitting the first man...

Olaf Thon on Aubameyang “Anyone who drives such fast cars and then comes too late to training, well there is something wrong there,”

Hmm, he has a point.

The speed of your car is not massively relevant if you live in a city where the traffic congestion restricts you, and of course you adhere to the speed limits.

I doubt the direct path between his house and the training ground is 100% autobahn. Olaf Thon sounds like a silly man, a bitter man perhaps as PEA rides off to inevitable success in the PL and Carabao Cup.

Yes.

It makes sense now.

Diesel engines have more power down the rev range which feels good but then you have to change up sooner than a petrol.

Anyway none of the above matters, diesel engines are for lorries, buses and boats. Anywon aged 5+ should know that imo

I drive a diesel Barry so I would expect an apology whenever you get the chance.

Yes.

Glad that's all resolved

Higher torque means better in-gear acceleration, useful for over-taking or if towing trailers/caravans
