The Taxman posted:The cars can apparently go quite quickly but the tracks aren't built for speed Yeah they could top out somewhere around 190 if allowed to I think. Wouldn't run as long on the battery of course, the calculations rely on something like 25-30% extra capacity from regen even at those speeds.

That's fine, just bring back car swapping during the race

Their new car for this year is leading to very good action. I don't really get the hype for Iwasa. IMO Lawson is the top tier talent that should get the next AT seat. I've always been mega impressed with his pace.

The key to F2 is not to try and spot the next standout talent, but just enjoy them binning themselves in moves that would be considered stupid in even the most rudimentary of racing video games.

But it doesn't matter how good you are at winning a spec series, if you don't get into the right drive in a non-spec series it doesn't matter for poo poo. Verstappen, for example, was not dominant at all in F3000 but to give him his due he was insanely entertaining at throwing his car around and look where he is now. Meanwhile, the winner of that series that year is charismatic no-mark Esteban Ocon (who Verstappen hilariously tried to push around a few years back lol).

don't remember if i mentioned this but big thanks to whoever recommended that Super Speedway imax movie awhile ago, it was great. some really good in-car footage though the sound was a bit too faked imo. still an awesome watch

Standard chassis, some places they can change (mostly the shocks) but also one of two engine suppliers. Between this and Super Formula, the actual racing action is probably better than F1. the milk machine posted:don't remember if i mentioned this but big thanks to whoever recommended that Super Speedway imax movie awhile ago, it was great. some really good in-car footage though the sound was a bit too faked imo. still an awesome watch I haven’t watched it for a while but it was absolutely mind-blowing stuff in the mid-90s and probably holds up given how proper IMAX films were shot.

Logan Sargent doesn’t even move the needle for me as an American. If you want me to break out the flags and hoot and holler every F1 race, give “Stingray Rob” a seat.

Will Power is kind of an all-timer of a racing name, plus he’s a proper maniac off the track. Dudley posted:To be fair that's mostly because F3000 stopped existing when he was 8 years old. And Max skipped a lot of the ladder, only spending a year in old pre-merger European F3 before going to Toro Rosso.

Yeah, it's really not hard to still see the angry little kids in karts in F2, they're small enough to easily drive 3 abreast on an F1 track which can only encourage the kind of passing that leads to spectacular results and a good number of current F1 drivers haven't shaken off that mentality. So why not go to the source?

they can just break his driveshaft from the pit wall, it's a much more economic way of issuing team orders while also recovering much more of the car than the sistema ferrari
