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.

Proesterchen commented on the post, F1 drivers didn't miss Catalunya's chicane, but did they find overtaking easier? 5 hours, 29 minutes ago

Few things are more boring than the endless medium and high-speed corners strung one after another that the Circuito de Barcelona has now, again, been reduced to. Formula 1 needs proper deceleration zones. […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, The pressure is off Perez now points gap to Verstappen is so large – Horner 13 hours, 54 minutes ago

Surely, I didn’t mean to say 2017 when it was 2007 I was referring to. 😜
Proesterchen commented on the post, The pressure is off Perez now points gap to Verstappen is so large – Horner 13 hours, 56 minutes ago

It’s always awkward for everyone else when someone who clearly cannot perform at the level of his teammate pulls stunts like that. No one gains. Not even the driver with the counterfactually overinflated […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, The pressure is off Perez now points gap to Verstappen is so large – Horner 1 day, 10 hours ago

Webber was quite consistently up thereNo, he wasn’t. Mark didn’t even manage to finish directly behind Seb once in their five years together at Red Bull Racing. Heck, Mark got himself beat by Seb in 2017, […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, The pressure is off Perez now points gap to Verstappen is so large – Horner 1 day, 11 hours ago

Does Checo suddenly no longer believe that Verstappen is the toughest team mate but I have the speed to beat him?
Proesterchen commented on the post, Verstappen dominates Spanish Grand Prix to win ahead of Mercedes pair 2 days, 6 hours ago

By doing the Alonso in Sochi 2021 thing.
Proesterchen commented on the post, Verstappen dominates Spanish Grand Prix to win ahead of Mercedes pair 2 days, 6 hours ago

Doesn’t matter as long as the cheques keep clearing. (and the lead in the WCC is there)
Proesterchen commented on the post, Rate the race: 2023 Spanish Grand Prix 2 days, 6 hours ago

I’ve had a 10/10 nap from about lap 12 to 46.
Proesterchen commented on the post, Verstappen easily takes pole in Barcelona as Perez fails to reach Q3 3 days, 5 hours ago

Everyone loves the cost cap. Especially the hundreds of people no longer working at highly successful teams because the company leeching not-quite-half of the sport’s revenues wanted the teams to be profitable […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, Verstappen easily takes pole in Barcelona as Perez fails to reach Q3 3 days, 5 hours ago

Albon should be brought back now that he’s experienced.Experience doesn’t make you any quicker. So replaying that particular experiment is pointless unless Red Bull Thailand feel like supporting Red Bull Racing w […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, Verstappen easily takes pole in Barcelona as Perez fails to reach Q3 3 days, 5 hours ago

… and the only person apparently surprised by that is Checo himself. 🤷‍♂️
Proesterchen commented on the post, Verstappen easily takes pole in Barcelona as Perez fails to reach Q3 3 days, 6 hours ago

Hats off to Carlos and Lando. (and I would have included Pierre, if not for his multiple times impeding others) Also, time to have a chuckle: “Verstappen is the toughest team mate but I have the speed to […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, Ferrari took a "tough decision" to change sidepod design – Vasseur 4 days, 5 hours ago

It should never be tough to get rid of an underperforming solution and replace it with one with a better track record. But Ferrari aren’t alone in their reluctance and can claim to have been fooled by their […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, Verstappen leads Perez by seven-tenths as times tumble at revised Catalunya track 4 days, 8 hours ago

This version of the track seems quite unsuited for Formula 1 racing. And with the current difference in pace, I guess everyone is reduced to praying for weather to intervene once again.
Proesterchen commented on the post, F1 drivers speak up for Catalunya track amid rumours of Madrid bid for Spanish GP 4 days, 23 hours ago

Must be a case of Stockholm Syndrome. We’ve literally had decades of terribly boring races at Circuito de Catalunya, with no signs of improving.
Proesterchen commented on the post, Hamilton and Russell asked Mercedes why W14 didn't look like rivals' cars 5 days, 6 hours ago

I wonder if we’ll get to know who it was that didn’t just lead the team into a cul de sac initially but also thwarted any and all opportunities to change direction between the on-track debut of the W13 on Feb 19, […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, "We can" win every race this year says Verstappen, but it's "very unlikely" 5 days, 8 hours ago

Good to have goals, given the dire competitive situation in the World Championships.
Proesterchen commented on the post, Now Catalunya's chicane is gone, which tracks would we 'fix'? 5 days, 11 hours ago

Rather than singling out any one specific circuit, I’d like to put forward that Formula 1 is big enough not to have the circuits it’s racing on mangled by bike-specific changes. I wouldn’t mind giving the […]
Proesterchen commented on the post, Now Catalunya's chicane is gone, which tracks would we 'fix'? 5 days, 11 hours ago

I agree, especially when the changes to T10/T11 made things actively worse for car racing. (much like the bike-inspired Silverstone changes, as well as those in Sepang)
Proesterchen commented on the post, Aston Martin's pursuit of works Honda deal no reflection on Mercedes – Wolff 5 days, 12 hours ago

My point being that Force India and the current Aston Martin F1 are not the same entity.
