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.

jsmith944 commented on the post, Hamilton says title is "theoretically" possible but "we need a second and a half, soon" 1 year, 1 month ago

Is there anyone still out there claiming Mercedes are sandbagging lol
jsmith944 commented on the post, Grosjean feels "like being alive again" after ending 10-year wait for pole position 2 years ago

I like Grosjean but he wasn’t a top driver in F1 and this performance shows how low the standard of Indycar currently is compared to F1.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Rate the race: 2020 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2 years, 5 months ago

Easily the most boring race of the season.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Perez rebounds from 18th to take first win after heartbreak for Russell 2 years, 5 months ago

Hmm Brundle said the same on commentary but I have zero faith in the stewards making correct or consistent decisions on anything to be honest. It could be anything between no penalty and DSQ who knows lol.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Perez rebounds from 18th to take first win after heartbreak for Russell 2 years, 5 months ago

Didn’t say it wasn’t a penalty, just saying a similar thing happened before. Yes I also think a penalty is possible.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Perez rebounds from 18th to take first win after heartbreak for Russell 2 years, 5 months ago

Not unprecedented, it happened to someone at Spa a few years ago. I can’t remember the outcome though.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Who will Mercedes pick to replace Hamilton at the Sakhir GP? 2 years, 6 months ago

He is contracted to Mercedes they decide who he races for not Williams!
jsmith944 commented on the post, Who will Mercedes pick to replace Hamilton at the Sakhir GP? 2 years, 6 months ago

Because he is contracted to Mercedes and only on loan to Williams.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Renault expected to announce Alonso's return for 2021 season 2 years, 11 months ago

You are correct about Lauda but Prost hadn’t retired at that point, he had been fired by Ferrari and took a sabbatical.
jsmith944 commented on the post, "1994: The Untold Story" reviewed 3 years, 4 months ago

I have read the book and I agree with your comment. It is very strange that the author states that they are unbiased and then throughout the whole book was defending Schumacher and Benetton, while accusing pretty […]

Yeah the same happens to me, its not playing the team radio quiz.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Hamilton unsure if early pit stop was the right move 8 years, 2 months ago

Which some may say amounts to arrogance on Mercedes part.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Hamilton unsure if early pit stop was the right move 8 years, 2 months ago

Very true but also very predictable and mercedes should have considered this before making the stop. I think this poor tactical decision was made because mercedes thought they were much quicker than ferrari when […]
jsmith944 commented on the post, Hamilton unsure if early pit stop was the right move 8 years, 2 months ago

The early pitstop is exactly what cost them, it was a big tactical error which cost them the win.
jsmith944 commented on the post, Roberto Merhi to make F1 race debut for Manor 8 years, 2 months ago

Kmag for round 2 onwards if Alonso is back in the McLaren?
jsmith944 commented on the post, Rules place too much emphasis on engine – Newey 8 years, 3 months ago

*for aerodynamics read wings and downforce
jsmith944 commented on the post, Rules place too much emphasis on engine – Newey 8 years, 3 months ago

Whilst I respect Newey as one of the greatest designers ever in F1 he is wrong in this case. F1 needs to be relevent to the real world and aerodynamics have no application on road cars however especially in these […]
