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.

Corey commented on the post, Hamilton drags Mercedes to victory after last-lap puncture 2 years, 8 months ago
@hoshino I actually think running softer compounds will be the better option. It will require them to do two stops. This makes the stints themselves shorter. Today, they had the hardest compound Pirelli even […]
BasCB commented on the post, Vietnam's European visa rules change adds to doubt over race 3 years ago
pushing the lines, pushing the lines. This is one of the parts of F1 the teams never get enough of – protesting, copying, etc. Yes, F1 is back @hoshino :-)
Sensord4notbeingafanboi commented on the post, Rate the race: 2019 Azerbaijan Grand Prix 3 years, 11 months ago
@hoshino the rule is a bugbear but Ferrari strategy was awful. the tyres were lasting so no point in starting on the medium, only when degradation is terrible that leclerc strategy makes sense, medium and then […]
Fer no.65 commented on the post, Sainz given grid penalty for "careless and potentially dangerous" Grosjean collision 5 years, 9 months ago
@hoshino completely different incidents. So different to one another that it’s quite incredible that you’re drawing any kind of comparison.
For starters, Max touched Seb already on the corner, the first one of […]
JamieFranklinF1 commented on the post, Giovinazzi to make F1 debut in place of Wehrlein at Sauber 6 years ago
@hoshino I think Sumedh means that Ferrari don’t charge them anything for some engines by giving their test driver a go, as opposed to circumventing the rules.
dragoll commented on the post, Who will be first to grab Rosberg's vacant Mercedes seat? 6 years, 3 months ago
@hoshino the question is, has got enough points for a super license yet?
BasCB commented on the post, Hamilton proud to 'knock down walls' to F1 6 years, 10 months ago
indeed @hoshino. It clearly points to the fault in design being in the basic concept they start from, a great racing track just is not a priority factor in the overall design.
Forrest commented on the post, Stewards are harder on me – Maldonado 7 years, 3 months ago
@hoshino It looks like the car will feature a lot of yellow. I’ve read a few things about Subway possibly being a sponsor, and a yellow car would fit with that also.
Thomson commented on the post, Stewards are harder on me – Maldonado 7 years, 3 months ago
i think they said that will have a yellow livery @hoshino
Though i would personally like to see them having a Red Livery?
Keith Collantine commented on the post, FIA publishes overhauled 2016 tyre rules 7 years, 3 months ago
@hoshino I understand the teams have until the 17th to make their first selection, not the 13th as originally written (amended above).
Guilherme commented on the post, Verstappen targets Schumacher's championships record 7 years, 3 months ago
@hoshino And both are cringeworthy…
pSynrg commented on the post, Vote for your 2015 Brazilian Grand Prix Driver of the Weekend 7 years, 4 months ago
@hoshino As much as I love watching Max do his brilliant thing. His passes were all tyre + DRS assisted.
He was on fresher tyres than all the cars he passed. He was able to close on them by having superior grip […]

@hoshino, they just do the exact same thing F1 has done:
Keith Collantine commented on the post, Forget surveys, here's what F1 can learn from Monaco 7 years, 10 months ago
@hoshino You raise a good point – no one wants to see people losing their jobs. And the big teams are resistant to cost controls partly because they don’t want to be laying people off.
But I’m talking about […]
mateuss commented on the post, Forget surveys, here's what F1 can learn from Monaco 7 years, 10 months ago
@hoshino Haha! Yeah, Keith wants to ban everybody involved in F1, starting with grid girls, then the team personnel, then the drivers?
I don’t agree with him on this point.
BJ commented on the post, McLaren-Honda relationship improving – Boullier 7 years, 11 months ago
How are the sparks artificial, @hoshino? They look very real to me and titanium was the skid block material that we used to see in ye days of olde.
montreal95 commented on the post, McLaren-Honda relationship improving – Boullier 7 years, 11 months ago
@hoshino So, you think then that the sparks 25 years ago were also artificial? Because they were achieved by exactly the same means. The reasons for the return of titanium skids instead of the heavy steel skids […]
