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.

It’s not as if D’Ambrosio was blown away last year.

7/10

Yes we had a surprising result, but it wasn’t overly exciting for me personally.
xtophe commented on the post, Chandhok expects to remain a reserve driver 11 years, 5 months ago

Could? Should!
xtophe commented on the post, What did F1 fans like least about 2011? DRS 11 years, 5 months ago

Exactly. As long as F1 opts for DRS, I hope they are able to refine it so passing is within acceptable boundaries. In the long term however, I hope this is just a stop-gap for a better and more durable solution.
xtophe commented on the post, Vettel crowned champion at FIA Gala 11 years, 6 months ago

Actually, you would say that. Your translation doesn’t capture the meaning of the phrase at hand. You’re saying: I voted aswell. He’s saying: I voted for F1F aswell. You’re trying to literally translate from […]
xtophe commented on the post, Top ten overtakes of 2011: Vote for Pass of the Year 11 years, 6 months ago

Vettel on Alonso in Italy and Jenson Button.
xtophe replied to the topic Your best and worst moments of the 2011 F1 season in the forum Formula One 11 years, 6 months ago

Best:
– Canada was great because of the weather (made it more apocalyptic) and the situation Button had gotten into
– Hamilton slowly catching Vettel in the Chinese GP and Webber’s comeback in that same GP
– Vettel going around the outside of Alonso at the Curva Grande in Monza
– Nurburgring was entertaining as a whole aswell

Worst:
– The…[Read more]

Good to see Hamilton smiling in the race-edit.
xtophe replied to the forum topic Is DRS an ideal gadget/device for F1? What do you think? in the group F1 11 years, 7 months ago

I think Australia was actually one of the better showings of DRS. It didn’t grant drivers a free pass, but instead enabled them to challenge the car ahead towards turn 3.
xtophe commented on the post, Rate the race: 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 11 years, 7 months ago

6/10

It wasn’t that exciting for me personally. It was less boring than the previous two iterations. As said before, there was more passing, but not that much actual overtaking.
xtophe commented on the post, Drivers given longer DRS zone for race 11 years, 7 months ago

xtophe replied to the forum topic Rememberance day in F1? in the group F1 11 years, 7 months ago

Button and Hamilton both had poppies pinned to their race overalls in the press conference. Aside from that I’m not sure.
xtophe commented on the post, Hamilton: Yas Marina will suit McLaren 11 years, 7 months ago

I had no idea this many PR-marketing nonsense could be fitted in such a small amount of text.

All you’re saying is that the track looks great and is hard to master. Well boohoo, there are dozens of tracks that […]
xtophe commented on the post, HRT to use Williams KERS in 2012 11 years, 7 months ago

“our target is still to finish in the top ten in 2012”

Is that as in 10th team (best of the backmarkers) or as in scoring points? I hope they mean the first.

Sector 2 just looks awesome with the onboard cam. I love the flow and can’t wait to see the dust clear next year so we can have some brave braking approaching the wide corner-entries.
