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.

S2G-Unit commented on the post, IndyCar's wet weather tyres are better than Formula 1's – Grosjean 3 weeks, 1 day ago

Pirelli’s wet weather tyres have been horrendous. We’ve had cars loosing control behind the safety car.

S2G-Unit commented on the post, Hamilton disagreed with decision to delay start of Monaco Grand Prix 1 year ago

I’ve been saying for years, we ever only ever had these safety car starts & so many issues racing in the rain ever since Pirelli came in to F1. We have seen so many drivers loosing control even behind the safety […]

@qeki
With Liberty Media, you forgot to add “sponsored by Verizon Wireless, 5G now available”
S2G-Unit commented on the post, Pirelli's investigation into Qatar tyre failures indicates kerbs caused punctures 1 year, 6 months ago

@macleod I cannot understand why people keep defending Pirelli. According to @gt-racer Pirelli is no longer required to make tires that degrade. Even if the tires don’t last very long (cannot even handle a full […]

@canadianjosh

ever since pirelli has been around there has been a ridiculous amount of safety car starts and red flags.
S2G-Unit commented on the post, Hamilton: Perez's Red Bull move will make life "much harder" for Mercedes 2 years, 5 months ago

@didaho As long as Sergio is on the pace, preserving his tires & in the fight, they won’t need to favor another driver. Max has just been too fast & people need to get it out of their heads that RedBull is […]
S2G-Unit commented on the post, Liberty planning 24-race F1 calendars with some events rotating 2 years, 6 months ago

@black The biggest issue I’ve had with the calendar the last few years is not having Brazil as the final race. Changeable weather, amazing passionate crowd makes for an amazing final event. Instead we get Abu […]

@stefmeister Thank you! Exactly!
S2G-Unit commented on the post, 'We need more grip and better safety': Hamilton puts fresh pressure on Pirelli to improve F1 tyres 2 years, 9 months ago

@greenflag

Given free reigns on designing whatever tire a manufacturer wants. I don’t think Pirelli would have many teams choosing them based on all super positive comments I’ve read about Michelins in WEC & […]
S2G-Unit commented on the post, 'We need more grip and better safety': Hamilton puts fresh pressure on Pirelli to improve F1 tyres 2 years, 9 months ago

ALL the drivers have been complaining since Pirelli’s second year. Schumi said “it’s like driving on eggshells”. Their new contract doesn’t force them to make tires that degrade, nor did they have to degrade via […]
S2G-Unit commented on the post, 'We need more grip and better safety': Hamilton puts fresh pressure on Pirelli to improve F1 tyres 2 years, 9 months ago

@ryandixon Pirelli does have that freedom. When they re-signed their contract in 2016, they weren’t forced or told to make the tires degrade the way they do. For years they have been crap. Based on what the teams […]
S2G-Unit commented on the post, Drivers concerned over "dangerous" slow out-laps in qualifying 2 years, 9 months ago

@roger-ayles Pirelli’s new contract never mandated these crappy tires. They have the freedom to do what they want but their clearly have a terrible product because drivers can’t even do 1 full lap in quali without […]
S2G-Unit commented on the post, Drivers concerned over "dangerous" slow out-laps in qualifying 2 years, 9 months ago

@bulgarian Yep, I think it was Bahrain 2012 where Schumi said it was like driving on egg shells. Pirelli is no longer forced to make tyres that degrade the way they do but their tyres still overheat, can’t last a […]

Try another tyre supplier!
S2G-Unit commented on the post, Hulkenberg was Mercedes' second choice for Hamilton's seat – Brawn 2 years, 9 months ago

@pastaman I had to comment!

I honestly don’t think he would have been as fast as he was without Lewis’ data. I’ve felt that way for years. I’m sure Hamilton did find things on certain weekends to improve his […]
S2G-Unit commented on the post, Will softer rubber make a thrilling race – or 52 laps of tyre management? 2 years, 9 months ago

@spoutnik From what I read, they ditched the 2020 tyres because they were worse in many ways.

@kbdavies
I agree 100% & I have been saying the same thing for years.
