Is prototype sports car racing about to shit the bed again?
>Audi pulls out >lmp2 becomes a spec series >Porsche running Le Mans test aero everywhere because Le Mans is all they care about >lmp1 field dwindling with just a joke private entry outside of the factory cars >same joke entry is the only taker for the ginetta lmp1 package >no manufacturers interested in coming in any time soon, BMW doing a GT program instead
Carson Ward
In Europe/WEC, sure. IMSA is about to git gud with the Penske-Honda DPi - that's four manufacturers racing each other in the same class which happens very very rarely in protos. Those DPis wouldn't exist without the spec P2s as base chassis so that's good too.
You know I've been thinking. Obviously Indycar will benefit a lot from Alonsos one off. But do you think it will be better for Indycar if he wins the race or just does well enough to not embarass himself?
Ian Howard
If Alonso wins the 500 after Rossi winning it on fuel coasting it'll look a bit bloody silly now. Then again Monaco is a meme event too. Honestly can see more F1 drivers going over to Indycar to wrap up their careers. HAM will retire to America for sure
Matthew Ward
FORMULA 1 ON STREAM COPYRIGHT STRIKE SOON
Robert Diaz
I'm sorry, nigger (black, subhuman), but F1 has a thread in
Oliver Gray
Top 10 in the mix but not winning would be best. He might come back and it increases the profile of the 500
Luis Moore
Is Alonso the only Indy rookie this year or is this really a special test
Jonathan Adams
All rookies are allowed one additional day of testing at any oval. Indycar is just making the most of the opportunity with Alonso
Carter Powell
So Alonso will still do the Rookie Orientation Day?
Asher Lee
>65 thousand people
Zachary Carter
It's because his team has a chance to win and Alonso if trained can pull it off.
Juan Powell
>72 THOUSAND PEOPLE
Austin Miller
Yes, these are two different things
Logan Watson
GOATLONSO
Connor Hill
72 thousand f1 retards
Luis Wilson
making IndyCar relevant again desu
Camden Smith
Forget what I said, this is his Rookie Orientation day already. If I remember correctly, they are allowed to do an additional test at an oval, though
Jonathan Nelson
threads are shit now
Wyatt Williams

that's all we need, is more dull grey manufacturer liveries in sportscars

Liam Cook
>His father and mother are separated after Sainz Sr struck her Didn't know that. But doesn't surprise me.
In his defense his car broke 300 meters from finish line of the last rally that he needed to finish 4th to be the champion. Literally gave Makinen and Mitsubishi the championship on gold plate. Yes it's a Toyota.
Landon Murphy
Lelgano hit with a L1 penalty cause of a rear suspension setup violation (AKA Everyone was right about cars swerving hard after the race is over). NASCAR is calling Richmond win an encumbered finish and Logano has had his automatic playoff spot and playoff points taken.
Good. The Penske cars are more blatant cheaters then Chad Knaus and the 48 team are
Landon Anderson
FUCK I have to travel tomorrow and i'll miss the Arca race REEEEEEE
Oliver Powell
Rain forecast for Dega' tomorrow morning and afternoon, so there's a possibility start time will be moved back or run on Saturday depending on track drying as it's expected to clear during the evening.
lmao whats new. im sure more was illegal on it but the hard downshift fixed that.
Alexander Baker
Brad's car was also obviously illegal, but I guess hes safe
Ian Bennett
>the hard downshift fixed that.
What, exactly, is a hard down shift supposed to hide?
Jaxson Rivera
How Joey tried to "fix" his car was the aggressive spinning donuts and burnout he did. It probably has the same effect as weaving really hard like the Gibbs cars do.
>WTCC race 1 at Monza >front row car stalls >penalty for the car behind for avoiding Nice """"touring car"""" series, boys.

Benjamin Hernandez
what did he mean by this
Gavin Hernandez
>In addition to fuel capacity adjustments for GTE-Pro cars, BoP changes have been made to GTE-Am this weekend, with both the 2015-spec Porsche 911 RSR and 2016 Aston Martin Vantage GTE receiving a 10kg minimum weight reduction and a 10kg increase for the Ferrari 488 GTE car. Additionally, the Porsche now has a mandated minimum ride height of 45mm. >The changes come amid a frozen Balance of Performance for the GTE-Pro class, which utilizes a baseline BoP for the opening two rounds prior to the full rollout of the new automatic system beginning at the Nürburgring in July. >According to ACO Sporting Director Vincent Beaumesnil, fuel capacity does not form part of the auto BoP. >GTE-Am is not subject to the automatic process. >Both the 2015-spec Porsche 911 RSR and 2016 Aston Martin Vantage GTE have been given a 10kg weight break, with the Ferrari 488 GTE handed a 10kg weight increase; Porsche is now mandated to run at a minimum ride height of 45mm.
of course the "auto-bop" is a fucking joke
In other news, Estre and DHH crashed at Les Combes. Kevin smashed up the Porsche pretty good but the DHH Gibson was only a spin.
Elijah Davis
Logano/Penske fanboys are the absolute worst
Sebastian Brooks
he's not going to win. screencap this.
Logan Rogers
what the HECK
Ryder Gutierrez
I was just thinking how Estre looked a lot better this year compared to 2016, lel. He has been garbage since leaving Mclaren
