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.

plushpile replied to the topic One thousandth Grand Prix in the forum Formula One 5 years ago

South of France wouldn’t be too bad in April next year – Paul Riccard for the 1000th race?
plushpile commented on the post, Wolff impressed by "efficient" Ricciardo 5 years, 1 month ago

As an Australian I’ve always liked the (normal) 10pm race start time for the European races, means I can have a full weekend and then the F1 race is the cherry on top. Would love more races in this timeframe.
But […]
plushpile replied to the topic Your questions: What do you want to know about F1 TV? in the forum Formula One 5 years, 3 months ago

This is a great question – they definitely need a robust second screen option, I don’t want to be locked out of using live timing on my phone/tablet if I’m streaming the race on my TV.
Would be really powerful to watch the main race feed on TV and then to follow a particular driver’s onboard on a second screen, with live timing on a 3rd.
plushpile replied to the topic Your questions: What do you want to know about F1 TV? in the forum Formula One 5 years, 3 months ago

Which commentators are they using?
What kind of historical content will be available, full races, race summaries or highlights?
plushpile replied to the topic Going to the 2017 Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang International Circuit in the forum Going to the Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang 5 years, 8 months ago

It took over two and a half hours to get back to KL Sentral from the track.
Am I just spoiled by having been to races with easy trams in Melbourne, or did something go wrong today?
The shuttle bus from the circuit to the station was nearly an hour in itself.
plushpile replied to the topic Going to the 2017 Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang International Circuit in the forum Going to the Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang 6 years, 2 months ago

Looks like I’ll be going to the Malaysian GP this year. Really looking forward to it.
Any recommendations on where to stay while in town for the weekend?

plushpile commented on the post, F1 'should be unpredictable like Race of Champions' 7 years, 6 months ago

When was the last time a kart race ran on the support bill to a Grand Prix?

I remember watching SuperKarts at the Aus GP in Adelaide as a support race.
plushpile replied to the topic How to watch F1 in your region in the forum Formula One 8 years, 2 months ago

@thecollaroyboys
The other part that’s really difficult is there is really poor advertising of what race is shown on Foxtel and what’s available on Ten.
Can’t say there’s any logic to the races that have been chosen, would have thought Ten would have wanted the Malaysian race given it’s at prime time in the eastern states…

I just can’t…[Read more]

I’m going to Friday’s sessions solo, so if anyone feels like catching up with another F1 Fanatic I’ll be walking laps of the track, so happy to meet you wherever

plushpile commented on the post, New Williams 'not massively different' – Bottas 8 years, 3 months ago

Completely agree with the COTD.

With Australia mimicking the UK’s free to air/pay TV mix this year I’m almost certain that I’ll end up streaming races again. $600 + install fee is a lot of money when I’d only […]

plushpile replied to the topic 2014 Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in the forum Australian V8 Supercars 8 years, 7 months ago

They won’t release the full race on YouTube unfortunately, V8 Supercar stopped releasing full race videos after the introduction of their online streaming service V8SuperView.

It’s a subscription service, but races are at least available on demand there if you’re outside Australia and NZ.

From memory that race was only red flagged once as well.
plushpile commented on the post, Sponsor Watch: 2014 Singapore Grand Prix 8 years, 8 months ago

Is this the first sponsor watch article?
I like the idea and hope to see more of these, but it’s also somewhat of an indictment on the current state of F1 that we need to have such a series of articles too.
plushpile commented on the post, Hamilton's third hat-trick makes him title favourite 8 years, 8 months ago

As did Hawthorn.
plushpile commented on the post, Sochi holds first race weekend ahead of Russian GP 8 years, 8 months ago

While it might be a one-off for this event rather than a reimplementation of FIA policy, I’m glad to see a circuit host a test event of some sort before the F1 circus rolls into town.
Would certainly have […]
plushpile commented on the post, Double points "really artificial" – Rosberg 8 years, 10 months ago

I see @Paeschli ‘s point. Peraltada really isn’t all that different to any corner on an oval circuit. Surely there’s other ways of making it safe without neutering the corner.
plushpile commented on the post, Hamilton's home win ties him with Stewart 8 years, 11 months ago

The standing start was the official race start, and while the cars sat on the grid for an hour it was effectively just 1 safety car lap. Unlike previous Lap 1 red flags the first start wasn’t annulled.
