To be honest it reminds me of when the Premier League changed logos and everyone hated it for two months and talked about how much better the old one was and now nobody even talks about it anymore because it looks fine. https://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/new_logo_for_premier_league_by_designstudio_and_robin_brand_consultants.php

It might be my americanism speaking but I can see why they did the new logo if only for the merchandise. I'd actually buy like, one of those track map hoodie mockups they have pictured there (especially an Abu Dhabi track map hoodie as a gag gift for F1 Thread Secret Santa)

AUDI sent an Audi to kill him, but failed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zsd4vjJND24&t=20s, and then fired the guy who drove that Audi). So he won, ended up in F1, and yeah....there's that. I didn't know anything actually happened in DTM op.

My main memory of that incident was that it was the only interesting to happen in DTM for like 10 years and everyone got banned for it or something, presumably for the sin of having something actually happen in a DTM race

I actually have heard DTM has been OK the last few years though apparently nobody goes to the races anymore. Also the rise of WTCC and the NASCAR xFinity/Nationwide Series mean that DTM is no longer the worst racing series on the entire planet.

I like TouringCarTimes trying to sell me on the "thrilling" WTCC finale and it's in loving Losail. I wouldn't watch WTCC race at Losail at gunpoint.

They should just move the MotoGP Japan race to Sugo, where the Superbike race used to be. RIP World Superbike. You were a good series and then the MotoGP promoter bought you and you died (1500quid DO NOT READ)

Between about 1996 and 2000 there was a good argument for World Superbike being the best racing series in the world. The 2007-2010 period was also quite good (and SBK 2007-2010 was definitely better than MotoGP was in that time period FWIW).

Human Grand Prix posted:What is the difference between the 2? Superbikes are based on production motorcycles while MotoGP chassis are purpose-built prototypes. More or less: MotoGP = F1, Superbike = GT racing. That's why MotoGP adopting road-bike-relevant 4-strokes hurt Superbike so much in 2002.

Bad circuits can produce good races on occasion. loving Valencia had the best F1 race this decade that wasn't Canada 2010.

Dorna more or less bought World Superbike and deliberately ruined it in an attempt to boost flagging MotoGP grid numbers. (Aprilia and Suzuki returning to MotoGP was more or less a direct result of them loving with the SBK regs, I think the only holdout is Kwak at this point) The Spaniard fraud company must be destroyed.

This has left them somewhat rudderless during a race weekend and things have gotten slack. Hot take: Williams haven't been very good because their drivers are an elderly brain patient and Lance Stroll.

If anyone wants some good bad posting check the new F1 logo thread in Autosport, which now features multiple people asking why a multi-billion dollar corporation decided not to save money and offer the new F1 logo to "designer student f1 fans" as free spec work.

The absolute best thing about the new F1 logo are the posts on Autosport where people post awful mockups that people say are so much better than the one F1 actually used.
