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.

thespuditron commented on the post, F1 to trial using DRS through Zandvoort's banked final corner 9 months ago

I wonder will they ever decide to run a race/sprint race with no DRS to see what happens with these new regs?
thespuditron commented on the post, Why the Gran Turismo 7 backlash should make EA think twice about microtransactions in F1 2022 1 year, 1 month ago

Full disclosure before I say anything. GT7 was a gift from a friend, for which I am very grateful, so I did not pay any money for the game itself.

Now, a couple of gripes I have:
1: You cannot sell cars you […]
thespuditron commented on the post, F1 tweaks Safety Car un-lapping procedure following Abu Dhabi controversy 1 year, 3 months ago

@jerejj This is true, but they will have fallen behind on the road and will still need to make up the gap.
thespuditron commented on the post, F1 tweaks Safety Car un-lapping procedure following Abu Dhabi controversy 1 year, 3 months ago

That the lapped traffic drop to the back of the field.
thespuditron commented on the post, F1 tweaks Safety Car un-lapping procedure following Abu Dhabi controversy 1 year, 3 months ago

Sebastian Vettel and Martin Brundle have already given the ideal solution for the whole safety car and unlapping cars thing.

But, I suppose, what would they know…. 🤷🏻‍♂️
thespuditron commented on the post, Steiner prepared to deal with possible impact of Ukraine crisis on team 1 year, 3 months ago

I loved the Lotus from 2012. Out of all those stepped noses, Team Enstone’s was the most elegant.
thespuditron commented on the post, Thrustmaster T248 steering wheel & pedals reviewed 1 year, 4 months ago

Perhaps when I grow up one day, and don’t have other adult duties or things I have to pay for, I’ll be having one of these. It really is the only way to experience driving games. *So* much fun. 👌🏻👌🏻
thespuditron commented on the post, Mercedes tease their new car for F1's radical 2022 rules 1 year, 5 months ago

The wheel fairings look a bit weird, but they have a function, so I’m ok with them, but the new front and rear wings look absolutely class. Hopefully they will have the intended effect. Fingers crossed. 🤞🏻
thespuditron commented on the post, Latifi condemns "extreme" social media abuse and death threats over Abu Dhabi GP crash 1 year, 5 months ago

@f1frog Thank you. It is absolutely disgusting. If someone end up throwing abuse at someone else, either online or in real life, then they seriously need to question their life choices. Sadly, the people that do […]
thespuditron commented on the post, Latifi condemns "extreme" social media abuse and death threats over Abu Dhabi GP crash 1 year, 5 months ago

While I believe most people are really quite decent, a small minority of people are absolutely horrible and I sometimes wonder why any celebrity would bother with social media, if this is the sort of thing they […]
thespuditron commented on the post, Did F1 race control make correct decision over last-lap restart? 1 year, 5 months ago

Regardless of the winner, my issue is with the race director not following the safety car procedure correctly. That was absolutely crazy, considering the procedure is written clearly.
thespuditron commented on the post, Vettel disqualification hearing to take place on Monday 1 year, 9 months ago

I partially stand corrected:

Very first paragraph from the Wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_Grand_Prix

Jordan Grand Prix was a Formula One constructor that competed from 1991 to 2005. The team […]
thespuditron commented on the post, Vettel disqualification hearing to take place on Monday 1 year, 9 months ago

**crosses fingers**
Hopefully the outcome is a positive one for the team formerly known as Jordan.
thespuditron commented on the post, Raikkonen may miss test following heavy crash 8 years, 11 months ago

If Massa has complaints about the Merc’s slowing down too much at a safety car restart, I’m sure he’ll be pretty irked by their having to stop completely after a safety car next year.
