I think the most shocking thing is that 20 hours of it is being shown on TV (and all the same channel too!)

https://jalopnik.com/monster-jam-is-going-to-war-with-mattel-1831623802 This is out of my wheelhouse so I'm not very familiar with this but TLDR: Monster Jam, the preeminent monster truck circuit in the US for some reason ended it's contract with Mattel to make monster truck toys, so Mattel literally just started up it's own Hot Wheels Monster Truck series so they can keep making toys. Lawsuits ensued.

So when Alonso wins this, Sebring and Le Mans in the same year are we gonna have to put an asterisk on it since it will be the WEC sebring? *edit* I assume no but Alonso isnt doing any other races for WTR, right? Basticle fucked around with this message at 15:30 on Jan 27, 2019 |

https://racer.com/2019/02/10/first-privately-entered-ford-gt-tipped-for-le-mans/ A Privateer Ford GT is racing in GT Am at Le Mans. Hopefully we get more of them after that since Ford is ending the factory team after this upcoming season.

Is this constant nonsense due to the ACO being idiots or is the FIA to blame as well?

So I somehow missed this but apparently the SRO & FIA is adding a new class to the Blancpain GT series next year called GT2. The cars have more horsepower and less downforce than the GT3 cars they're currently running, and are apparently meant to be driven by amateur and "gentleman" drivers, which seems like literally the worst idea ever????? Initially only the Porsche 911 GT2 RS Clubsport was entering it, making it a single-make series, with Aston Martin, Mercedes and Lambo considering it. But a couple of days ago Audi unveiled their version of the R8 for the class and holy poo poo  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PBlLecmpsk
