F2
Formula 2 is considered the foremost single-seater feeder series to Formula 1. F2 has existed in three different guises over the years. Until 1984 the championship was an open series for manufacturers of different chassis, engines and tyres. However that championship was phased out and replaced by Formula 3000. F2 was later revived as a one-make series between 2009. However the series failed to attain the prominence of GP2, which had replaced F3000 and raced almost exclusively on the F1 support bill. The new F2 lasted just four seasons. In 2016 Liberty Media took over the running of F1 and purchased GP2, then rebranded it as Formula 2 in 2017.

IndyCar
The most famous IndyCar race is the Indianapolis 500, held annually at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in front of huge crowds. However American open-wheel racing has a chequered history. The championship reached its peak in the late eighties and early nineties under the sanctioning body CART. It attracted huge international attention as Formula 1 champions including Nigel Mansell, Emerson Fittipaldi and Mario Andretti competed in it. However the creation of the rival Indy Racing League in 1996 created a split which badly damaged the championship. CART, which rebranded as Champ Car, fell into decline. By 2008, with Champ Car on the bring of collapse, the two series finally merged, but the damage had been. Nonetheless today’s IndyCar championship retains a reputation for spectacular racing with its single-specification chassis and features a broad range of circuits including road, street and traditional American oval courses.
FE
Formula E is a recent additional to international motorsport. The all-electric single-seater racing championship was set up by the FIA in 2014. The series races exclusively on street circuits.
WEC
The World Endurance Championship is the leading worldwide series for prototype road-based sports cars. The series’ signature race is the Le Mans 24 Hours, held annually at the Circuit de la Sarthe in France.

Simon Lacey commented on the post, McLaren's pre-season a "huge amount better" than in 2022 – Norris 3 months ago

I’d be happy to drop Will Buxton
Simon Lacey commented on the post, Horner given official warning over "rogue marshal" comments 1 year, 6 months ago

I didn’t mean what I said, now that I’ve been called out on it…
Simon Lacey commented on the post, Ferrari has "best line-up of the entire pit lane" – Binotto 1 year, 9 months ago

On a reductive basis, Ferrari being so close to McLaren with what has potentially been the slightly better car, suggest McLaren have possibly the slightly better pairing even though Ricciardo has clearly been […]
Simon Lacey commented on the post, Ferrari now support engine freeze, suggest possibility of 'converging' performance 2 years, 6 months ago

If you want engine parity, then surely the best approach is to all use the same engine? Preferably by an independent supplier. Could cut costs too :)

Can’t help feeling engine parity through fuel flow is open […]
Simon Lacey commented on the post, Could engine 'quali mode' ban arrive this year? Five Spanish GP talking points 2 years, 9 months ago

Not sure about that specifically, but pretty sure there was a restriction against changing engine mode during the first lap to avoid the use of launch maps. They could do something similar, just changing it to you […]

You’ve been a very naughty boy.
Simon Lacey commented on the post, Was F1's Virtual Grand Prix series a success? 2 years, 11 months ago

The Race Legends series was my favourite of the ones I watched in terms of racing (such a great field of drivers for the Indy race). I thought the IndyCar and NASCAR coverage was really good too (the dynamic […]
Simon Lacey commented on the post, Verstappen tips Sainz over Ricciardo for Vettel's Ferrari seat 3 years ago

Sainz seems comfortable at McLaren, and Ferrari would be a risk, but one possibly worth taking with rule changes benefitting manufacturer resources. If he was to go, would be fun if he was replaced by Russell (ok, […]
Simon Lacey commented on the post, Norris spins and wins in dramatic IndyCar iRacing debut 3 years, 1 month ago

I enjoyed that far too much. Hope Lando can make next week.
