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.

Tenerifeman commented on the post, Mercedes unlikely to choose between Russell and Bottas before end of season – Wolff 1 year, 11 months ago

Maybe it’s a carrot to ensure that Bottas performs well this year. Perhaps the williams Merc swap is already agreed but VB doesn’t know?
Tenerifeman commented on the post, Exclusive: How a 'dream' chance to lead Williams put Capito's retirement plans on hold 2 years, 2 months ago

I assume when you say “this guy” that you are referring to Dieter Rencken.
Tenerifeman commented on the post, Exclusive: How a 'dream' chance to lead Williams put Capito's retirement plans on hold 2 years, 2 months ago

Terribly written? As an old man who abhors the general standard of both written and spoken journalism nowadays I can understand and make allowances for Dieter’s non first language writing, his content is usually superb.
Tenerifeman commented on the post, Why Grosjean's crash escape wasn't just a matter of 'luck' 2 years, 6 months ago

I have to say that I really appreciate your various articles Dieter, as an old fogey ex driver I must admit that I was a critic of Stewart in his early safety campaign days….. however time has proved me wrong. […]
Tenerifeman commented on the post, Farewell to Sir Frank, Claire, and the era of independent F1 teams 2 years, 8 months ago

I like the idea but why not allow a single engine from another source? 3500 cc naturally aspirated?

Simple answer … different engine!
Tenerifeman commented on the post, Hamilton says Albon clash was "racing incident", Wolff calls penalty "harsh" 2 years, 11 months ago

WHY o why didn’t Merc order Bottas to let Lewis through after the penalty? That would have allowed Lewis to make up time on those behind and allow Bottas to remain within 5 sec of Lewis and the result would have […]

Anyone else remember the Aston Martin/Rothmans/airline captain ads?
Tenerifeman commented on the post, Could Vettel be an Aston Martin driver in 2021? 3 years ago

That race suit … yuk, BRG ok but the yellow? Lotus to me. Am I showing my age?
Tenerifeman commented on the post, Wolff: Vettel would have marketing appeal but Mercedes has long-term strategy for drivers 3 years ago
