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.

The FIA will use any excuse to make the cars even bigger!!!

“Jack, run faster. I don’t think we’re getting the aero benefit at this speed.”
Brian commented on the post, 2019 Australian Grand Prix race result 4 years ago
When they put LEC on the hard, I was thinking VET was on a two-stopper. That would have been the smartest thing to do, but who said they were smart?
Brian commented on the post, 2019 Australian Grand Prix race result 4 years ago
Ferrari strategy terrible for both. Pitted VET too early and then should have pitted when VER passed. LEC probably stayed out too long and then should have pitted late to get fastest lap.

63 for Russell? Does that number have a special meaning for him? Reminds me of a number a September call-up in Major League Baseball would have. You don’t expect those players to be with the team for very long.
Brian commented on the post, Red Bull will be "very strong" in race, Ricciardo predicts 4 years, 11 months ago
The RB guys do seem to talk too much. I think it’s more likely that their comments are just published more often than others.

Clearly it should be BOT. RIC deserves DOTW as much VET did in Australia. Race was won on strategy.
Brian commented on the post, "Incredible" F1 lap times prompt Pirelli to change tread depths 4 years, 11 months ago
Thanks for pointing that out. Now my head hurts. Is this like changing the rules in the middle of the game? Have the teams tested these different tires? I’m sure some teams and others have not. Is this now giving […]
Brian commented on the post, Does Hamilton really want grid girls back?: "I couldn't care less" 4 years, 11 months ago
I thought it was funny that he was asked that question. Could we please stop being so hyper-sensitive about everything? I guess that’s where we are now with social media. His response was a little defensive. So […]
Brian commented on the post, 2018 Australian Grand Prix Star Performers 5 years ago
I think the gap to those 3 was still growing even before MAG pitted. I thought the gap was large enough to pit without losing position. Assuming these 3 would pit before VET, Ferrari could keep him out until […]
Brian commented on the post, Red Bull pushing Renault to develop qualifying engine mode 5 years ago
It’s just a backhanded approach to get engine parity. That’s all it is. He better hope the Honda engine has a “super ninja mode”.
Brian commented on the post, 2018 Australian Grand Prix Star Performers 5 years ago
Agree
Brian commented on the post, 2018 Australian Grand Prix Star Performers 5 years ago
Excuse me if someone has mentioned this elsewhere, but don’t you think Ferrari’s strategy was to have VET go long enough to go SS for the final stint? He only went to the S because of the opportunity with the VSC. […]
Brian commented on the post, Ricciardo's fastest lap shows Red Bull's true pace – Horner 5 years ago
In this day and age of fuel, engine, and tire conservation, how relevant is the fastest lap when predicting true pace? Didn’t McLaren Honda have the fastest lap at Monza one year? I like RB, but all this big talk […]
Brian commented on the post, ESPN apologises to US viewers after first F1 broadcast attracts complaints 5 years ago
They did seem to have commercial breaks at the least appropriate times. Does this apology mean they will actually improve the coverage or is it just lip service? I also wish the post race coverage was longer. I […]
Brian commented on the post, Hamilton preferred a later pit stop in fight with Ferrari 5 years ago
This just shows how important it is to have BOT up front. After bottling it in qualifying, I think going forward he should be conservative in qualifying. The Mercedes is a beast in qualifying and he is guaranteed […]
Brian commented on the post, Hamilton's Q3 surge surprised Vettel: "I don't know what he did" 5 years ago
You’re right. HAM nailed it, VET did not. I think the gap is more like 0.3 sec between Mercedes and Ferrari. Start tomorrow could be crazy with VER and Haas trying to get to the front.

Add DRS to the tunnel in Monaco. Now that could be fun!!!

Exactly. I only need to know two things – who do I send my money to and how can I watch it on my TV.
