We should probably start putting links to where to watch this stuff in the OP, like WEC, WRC and Supercars all have their own streaming services now and a shitload of series' stream their poo poo on Youtube like Blancpain and British GT. Probably not WTCR this season though.

It's not too surprising that a team caught tampering with their fuelling system would get the book thrown at them.

He's basically in every WEC race that doesn't clash with an F1 weekend. Time to see how strong the Alonso curse is.

drgitlin posted:Not only that, but the new date clashes with a Super GT race, which screws over two of Toyota’s own drivers! (Kaz and Kamui will have to miss the SuperGT race just so Alonso can make it to Fuji.) Yeah about that...they're changing their dates as well. The racing world bends so Alonso can hotlap a Toyota for 2 hours.

It also doesn't help TCR that they keep running these giant grand prix circuits and there's no sadder sight than touring cars on a circuit way too big for them.

an oddly awful oud posted:the speed of the 919 Evo is breathtaking and it's a major accomplishment, but I can't see that record standing after this year's F1 qualifying. those cars are definitely going to find a second over last year This is probably the funniest thing that they're going round taking lap records that probably are going to last a few months.

Super Formula and Super GT races I've watched at Fuji have generally been pretty good. Silverstone though has always been one of if not the worst racetrack in the UK.

The best race on the same day as the worst race often produces some really fun articles on Monday about why Monaco is actually important and not just a shitpile of a track F1 only still goes to because all the drivers live there for tax reasons. Sportscars at Lime Rock is always a good time though.

Macau has a history though and also they're going to race there regardless of whether the FIA's around. Literally no-one else races at Vila Real.

Jacques Villeneuve basically will race in any series that's getting some press and then quit after a few races when he's not winning.
