All in all, I thought it was a fun race to watch. For a city street race there was a lot of passing. The part that got me is people voting Max as the drive of the day??? He started 2nd, lost control of his car and spun, worked his way back to the lead and then ended up a sad 5th after Oscar and...
Anybody following this series? Instead of GT3 cars which are purpose built race cars, GT4 cars start life as street cars. The are a bit slower than, and heavier than GT3 cars. In their first 2 races at Sonoma Raceway last weekend a Toyota Supra won them both! Decent racing with 6 different...
His contract with Red Bull is thru 2027, but I bet Red Bull and McLaren reach a deal to move him at the start of 2027 instead.
Or will Red Bull just be pricks and not let him work at Red Bull or McLaren during 2027? They call it Gardening Leave.
I'm sad for you. I got Apple TV and get way more coverage than ESPN gave us thru SKY TV. And the racing has been great. I love the fact that it's not just one pass and it's over as in the DRS days. I pass you, you pass me back... fun to watch.
I agree. Honda thinks being in F1 and Indycar is good for them. But they really don't have a very good line up of cars for a racing/driving enthusiast to buy!
I love the new cars. I don't give a crap about the fact that they may be a bit slower.... they are WAY more fun to watch! They get more over steer than they did before. They are more often squirming around more than before. There is more passing and more to think about than before.
I'm sure...
I read that Honda can NOT do anything to fix their engine until after the 6th race, and then can only change 2 things. And 6 races will be deeper into the season if the April races are cancelled. How will Aston Martin ever recover anything this year?
I agree completely about Norris holding off Max. I think maybe, for right now, Merc & Ferrari are pretty even at the front and McLaren & Red Bull are pretty equal and just a tiny step behind. Racing Bulls, Haas and Audi look to be the best of the rest. And now, maybe all 4 of the top teams have...
That was a fun race to watch. And although Max had a good drive, I think the drive of the day belongs to Ollie Bearman who fell to the back of the pack and came back to be the 'Best of the Rest' and finish 7th (behind Max) after a big battle with Linblad in the Racing Bull (who also had a great...
I'd love to see Haas and GR be the best of the rest. It's been a long hard road. But I think Guenther Steiner didn't do a very good job for Haas while he was there. They sure seem to have gotten a lot better since he left.
This is pretty much just wild ass guesses since I haven't seen anything of importance yet!
My list for basic qualifying at the first race:
Mercedes
McLaren
Ferarri
RedBull
HAAS
Racing Bulls
Alpine
I think
Williams
Audi
Aston Martin
Cadillac
WDC at the end of the year:
George
Lando
Charles...
I agree completely and really hope you are right.
As somebody who owned 4 different Mk1 MR2's, 2 for the street (1 was supercharged) and 2 that raced in the SCCA, I think the twin rear deck is much more practical.
I used to love Porsche 911's, but they used to be beyond my budget. Now I could afford one without breaking a sweat, but I've lost interest in the brand. I love my 2025 Supra, but if the MR2 has 250+hp and is close to the current Supra in comfort and tech features, I'd be shopping for one ASAP!
