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.

@wismut nice write up of Korea 2011 in the roundup! I’m going this year and I’m staying in Gwangju. Where did you find the bus straight to the circuit from Gwangju? That sounds really handy! View

Keirdre commented on the post, Verstappen clinches his second championship in F1's slowest-ever race 5 months, 2 weeks ago
See the finale of the second Formula E season to see why this rule exists. Buemi and di Grassi essentially had a fastest lap shootout at the back of the race for the championship. Sit in the pits, come out into […]

Races will be run every Saturday from April 28th to May 2nd
I assume you mean from MARCH 28th to May 2nd…

They get constructors money for 10th place in the championship regardless, don’t they?

Why are they bringing Marrussia into it?
Keirdre commented on the post, F1 Fanatic presents new podcast Motorsport Extra 6 years, 10 months ago
This is exactly the podcast I’ve been looking for. Professional, well-informed, wide-ranging, and not ruined by poor Skype lines and ‘funny’ sound effects (I’m looking at you Downforce Radio!)
Great work. […]

A rubbish end to a rubbish season. I’ve never been so pleased to see the end of the calendar. Bar a few highlights, utterly dismal.
Keirdre commented on the post, Who will be eligible to race in Formula One next year? 8 years, 2 months ago
Drivers can return to F1 if they’ve had 15 races in the past 3 years? So Schumacher wouldn’t have been eligible for his comeback?
Keirdre commented on the post, Korea's surprise return means record 21 races in 2015 8 years, 3 months ago
I know! Worst location imaginable. And Mokpo just can’t handle the volume. I stayed in Mokpo the first year (on a friend’s motel room floor) and Gwangju in 2012 and didn’t bother with 2013 (didn’t fancy the […]

I’d have preferred they sent two cars out and tried to ensure that Bianchi’s two points in Monaco were not in vain.
Keirdre commented on the post, Hill wins as crash crushes Lotus's recovery hopes 8 years, 6 months ago
I haven’t seen the incident. How did they hold up the Ferrari for that long? Were the pit boxes too close to each other? Usually a hold up is only brief as a car enters or exits its box.

I remembered the colour scheme from that Focus, but I didn’t associate it with Martini. It doesn’t seem to be so prominent as the other cars.
