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.

Wonderduck commented on the post, Halo would have been "welcome" in crash – Alonso 7 years ago
New to racing I see…
Or, y’know, he looks around at just about EVERY OTHER CIRCUIT ON THE F1 CALENDAR and sees acres upon acres of tarmac in the runoff area and wonders “Hm, why isn’t this one paved?”
One […]

We did? Gosh, I must have missed that part. Dial back on the Eurocentric rhetoric a tad, please.
Wonderduck commented on the post, Schumacher returns home to continue recovery 8 years, 6 months ago
I’ll admit that I thought they’d already announced that he’d returned home some months ago. Hmm.
Well, either way, while I was never a Schumacher fan and actively rooted for somebody… ANYbody… to beat him […]

Don’t talk down a person in a much higher position than you.
He wasn’t.
Wonderduck commented on the post, Three key changes expected on next year's F1 cars 8 years, 7 months ago
the skid blocks are being altered to ensure they are… …fixed in a way which will make them less likely to detach.
Has this been a problem in the past? I saw a… I think it was a GP2 accident… recently […]

Meanwhile, those of us with NBCSN (or CNBC this week) get to watch in HD on our 51″ big screen TVs while we sit in our nice comfy couches. Enjoy that laptop!

Please, please, PLEASE let it be Paul Stoddard. He’s exactly what F1 needs these days.
Wonderduck commented on the post, Vettel told to 'raise his game' by Marko 8 years, 9 months ago
Does he race with the child in the cockpit with him? If so, then I can definitely see how it’d affect his concentration (and slow the car down, to boot… all that extra weight for the crib!).
Otherwise, I […]

Wonderduck commented on the post, Too many teams "throw money" at F1 – Haas 8 years, 11 months ago
F1 requires something from the sole
What does the bottom of a foot have to do with F1, other than what’s used to push the pedals down?
Wonderduck commented on the post, Vettel and Button at odds over engine noise 9 years ago
I’m fairly sure that Seb Vettel would like the engine noise more if he could hear it for more than a handful of laps at a time.
Wonderduck commented on the post, Some corners 'special cases' in track limits disputes 9 years ago
…certain corners on certain circuits that require special treatment…
Then change the track limits, change the corner, or hold the drivers to the rules. Don’t screw around and say that they deserve “special […]
Wonderduck commented on the post, Some corners 'special cases' in track limits disputes 9 years ago
But it is the only one that the FIA (and we) are concerned about.
Wonderduck commented on the post, Williams can be second-fastest team – Massa 9 years ago
And as Toto Wolff, Mercedes’ motorsport boss, pointed out this week, we cannot afford to ignore our fans.
F1 have mostly ignored their fans for the past decade or longer, why stop now?

Useful response! Thank you for your insightful input.
In fact, others in this very thread has posited the exact same scenario as f1lauri, and knowing Red Bull’s history, it wouldn’t surprise me in the least to […]
Wonderduck commented on the post, Do F1's new engines have the right sound? 9 years ago
I love the new sound. The V8 shriek may as well have been someone sticking a dentist’s drill into my ears. By comparison, the V6Ts grumble-and-whine sounds like sweet sweet music.
Wonderduck commented on the post, Mercedes' "slight lead" won't last – Fernley 9 years, 1 month ago
Tell me: how exactly would a thirty second update read by the hospital PR person endanger Schumacher’s life?
Not that it matters, of course. As I said earlier, what the fans want don’t matter.
Wonderduck commented on the post, Mercedes' "slight lead" won't last – Fernley 9 years, 1 month ago
No, no, Dr H is entirely correct: it really IS unfair to the people that made Michael the celebrity he is. The thing he’s missing, however, is that the wishes of the fans don’t matter.
It’s just that simple. […]
