Official Motor/sp/ort General: Dog days issue

Racing this week:
WRC - Deutschland
Xfin - Road America
Indy - Gateway
DTM
MotoGP - U.K.
IMSA - VIR
Trucks - Canada
Supercars - The Bend

I'd highly recommend praying for rain and then tuning into the Xfinity race for absolute comedy and entertainment.

You got rags? They're always welcome, but FUCK divegrass.

Post news as you get it.

Daytona 2020

24H series at Barcelona next weekend, but no one cares about that

Dubai 2020

Creventics next week like said and Thunderhill later in the year, no major races for the rest of the year. If here talking 2 wheels Bol D'or is next month, should be fun.

Pocono is officially one of the ONLY ovals on television in any series to get ratings growth every year AND attendance growth AND it was yellow flagged for 40 minutes.

Meanwhile Reddit is circle jerking for it to be removed becuase their AMAZING ROOKIE Robbie Wilkins couldn’t keep is car under control trying to pass in turn 2 Lap 7.

Meanwhile they shit on Taku, a veteran, for allegedly racing too hard on lap one.

Fuck Reddit. Taku is based, exonerated, held his line. Fuck Rossi.

I won’t be watching the Onions INDYCAR Series race streets of Vietnam brought to you by blacked.com if they drop a super speedway. The series is dead to me. Drop a Detroit and add an oval. Drop St Pete add Daytona.
Quit being pussies and quit doing gay street races. Let Formula 1 ruin itself with those

not really anymore. After Taku's onboard came out mostly everyone is just saying its a racing incident from being overly aggressive on lap 1

Literally most people there are saying they want it back but whatever.... It should be back though, good attendance, owners want it back. Robbie wants it gone because of his injury, but the incident he was in was pretty much his fault not the track. Max Chilton wants it gone too but he's just an F1 reject and won't do any ovals.

>franchitti for defending sato and the track
>dixon, power, pagenaud for defending the track
>rll for defending sato and telling possi to fuck off
should we add felix for being tough as nails and not falling in the blame game?

Ferrucci for being the only zoomer with the balls to face the ovals like a man

Fuck that, street races are awesome as is the Detroit double header. I'd rather they do away with the Indianapolis GP. They need more tracks, not the same or fewer, there's enough breaks as it is. They need to add another superspeedway, maybe even an endurance event.

I can see maybe doubling the safer barrier height around the turns, and a repave to tame some of the banking. Safetyfags GTFO, they'll have us watching drone cars after the next fatality if they got their fucking way. The 500 used to kill 3 people a year regularly, and they would still finish the race.

Yes Rosenqvist didn’t go on tv or twitter and cry at anyone or the track like the fag wickens or worse chilton

Indy GP is good because they’re already there anyway. It’s not really anything but a bonus race and it was Kino this year too

Other than it takes up yet another week where they could be somewhere else.

They’re in Indy for practice that month

Bathurst now not implementing the SRO's shitty rules for next year's race

>>franchitti for defending sato and the track
this should really seal the deal for people hating on Sato. Franchitti generally loathes Sato's existence so his statement was quite telling

Rosenqvist will be sponsored by Monster Energy

Xfinity has had the best grids of the three national series this year. Decent cars have gone home multiple times and their backmarkers aren't nearly as bad as the others.

I'm fucking amazed that Takuma Sato is still racing, it seems like an age ago that he was in F1.

nigga is 42 and better than he ever has been

Spec racing should exclusively be karts, Legends, and speg Miadas. It's fucking retarded spending $7m/year to race identical cars with 25 year old technology.

Attached: s101_003.jpg (960x640, 122K)

>$7m/year
That's a hell of a lot less than the $120m - $410m that F1 teams spend, though (those are the smallest and biggest amounts spent by F1 teams last year respectively; $120m was spent by Racing Point and $410m was spent by Ferrari).

Any idea if and where Suzuka 10 Hours is gonna be streamed? Does it usually get english commentators?

On youtube like all SRO stuff. Last year was a disaster in terms of English commentators but it seems to be better this year, Sam Collins is supposedly one of them.
You could also watch the Japanese stream you just need a VPN to start watching it but you can turn it off after that, assuming it's the same as last year.

Alright, thanks. Pretty hyped for this since they got Mika Häkkinen out of retirement too.

If you're talking two car teams it's $15m, with only $2m in prize/entry money. F1 that $120m comes with $60m in FOM money. So you're really talking about $13m vs. $60m for a series with around 30x the audience and exposure.

Having a 20 race world championship on 4 continents rather than 15 venues mostly buttfucking the great lakes inherently drives up budget considerably to start with.

That $7m sounds much crazier compared to $15,000 or whatever to race a Miata.

I'm bitching because the radio ads are annoying as fuck. The only almost decent radio station I know out here has those ads all the time. Either way I don't really mind the store; my local one has a few qts who cashier and they usually have what I need. It's not too far from my house either.

>F1
I so desperately want Hammy to be sentenced to run in a low-tier team's car just to see how he does without literally the biggest budget and best every goddamn thing else. That, however, is unrealistic until he catches syphilis from some thot or other and/or Mercedes suddenly becomes less competitive.

>CSBK tire test at Area 27
mite b cool

I mean if they raced there, Calabogie and Mont Tremblant instead of Shannonville (which will never ever be taken off the schedule though) and St. Eustache (which is kill now) and actually repaved AM it would almost be a respectable championship. It's really amazing how a country can have like 4 actual good tracks total and only one of them is on a "national" championship schedule.

Mind you Area 27 is 4h+ from any major population center and has never held any kind of race before, so still kind of shitty option overall.

How Drag Racing Died, Pt. 1

There will be a time when these trucks are forgotten because all relevant online articles have 404'd, but let me tell you about the NHRA Pro Stock Truck category and how the NHRA got sued by these dudes.

The NHRA's answer to the NASCAR's craftsman truck series was putting 850hp V8's into little S10's and Dakotas, which was about as insane as it sounds. E/T's were in the 7.4 second bracket at ~185 mph and they'd scream through the trap at 10,000 rpm. Trucks were surprisingly cheap to run, with the cost somewhere between $70,000 and $180,000.

The class exploded in popularity and pretty much everywhere they went, they had huge fields. Guys like John Lingenfelter (pictured) would run the season basically as a hobby. The class started in 1998, and by 2000 it had full manufacturer support from everybody. It was the single fastest growing auto racing championship in history, faster even than Formula E.

If you understand how the NHRA works, it's not one main "Monster Energy Cup" championship, but four "pro" championships. You have your Dragsters, Funny Cars, Pro Stock, and then Pro Stock Bike. Pro Stock Truck at the time made it five, so the NHRA adjusted payouts accordingly. Races in other classes freaked the fuck out at slightly reduced payouts, so in a rash decision, the NHRA announced, without warning, that Pro Stock Truck was done after 2001.

Imagine waking up and reading that Formula E is done after the next season, and the pandemonium that would follow. Think of how assmad the teams currently building a Formula E program, or in the middle of R&D tests, would be at that news. Exactly what happened in drag racing.

Every major PST team, which had the backing of Jegs, Summit, Mopar, Chevy, etc, sued the NHRA. The group of team owners won and it financially crippled the NHRA by the mid 2000's. They recovered, of course, but lost a lot of their upward momentum.

Hope Braun can continue racing

How Drag Racing Died, Pt. 2

Okay, so it's the mid-2000's. The NHRA has been fucked by the PST class action lawsuit, but Coca-Cola has stepped in to sponsor the series.

Brief history of drag racing: similar to stock car racing, there are two main sanctioning bodies - you know of the NHRA, but there's also the IHRA. No backstory needed, it's comparable to NASCAR & ARCA. Same cars, same classes, just different tracks.

Enter Torco Race Fuels. The company was run by a shitposting boomer who wrote in all caps on myspace, but had an absurd amount of money. If your first assumption is that this guy must be committing some sort of tax fraud or money laundering scheme, congratulations, you are smarter than 99% of professional drag racers in 2006.

This is the most prolific sponsorship that has ever occurred in auto racing as he would throw decals on pretty much everyone's car, and by 2006-2007 was sponsoring the entire IHRA championship himself. Payouts were also luring people away from the NHRA, which made for a really bizarre scenario where drivers were beginning to defect from the "big" established series in favor of IHRA events. Picture Monster Cup teams dragging their entire operation, cars and all, to Toledo for the ARCA 200. Nothing like this will ever be seen again in professional level auto racing.

Of course, shit hit the fan eventually. It started with the Pro Stock class boycotting the Canadian events, because the payouts were randomly cut one season and it made the trip to Toronto/Edmonton not worth it. That was the canary in the coal mine. It all fell apart just a few years later, and Evan Knoll went to jail for tax fraud. Several professional racers were potentially liable for paying the sponsorship funds they received from Torco, back to the government, but this never materialized.

By 2010 the IHRA was no longer a championship, but a touring exhibition series owned by the same people that ran Monster Jam.

>Gass also said that the DTM had held discussions over having multiple drivers share the running at Fuji, but he explained that the difficulties in accommodating each driver's set-up - as well as the complication in explaining the rotation to TV audiences - meant such a scenario was unlikely.

LITERALLY TOO DUMB FOR DRIVER SWAPS

>dtm

Attached: 1549244837637.png (482x355, 181K)

To be slightly fair, 99% of people in any racing do not give a single fuck where the money comes from ever. You'd have a hard time finding people who have been in pro sports car racing for any length of time and have never been paid through outright illegal funding. Kevin Conway went through 4 teams despite his dick pill sponsor consistently not paying. Amateur motorcycle racers will both use and shill random unknown brand safety equipment made in Crapistan because they got a shitty discount. Fucking Rich Energy happened and that's one of the more minor sponsorship scandals in F1 compared to shit like Moneytron.

Given the tenuous economic viability of motorsport most people involved are either completely retarded or outright amoral when it comes to financial dealings.

>Quite the contrary to GRT Yamaha, with several reports linking WorldSSP frontrunners Federico Caricasulo and Randy Krummenacher (BARDAHL Evan Bros. WorldSSP Team) to Marco Melandri’s soon-to-be-vacant seat.

Just seems weird for Yamaha to let Lowes go when he's so good at Suzuka. But Johnny can have his all britbong lineup instead of having to share with a dirty turk now I guess.

>Where would all this leave the duo of Alex Lowes and Michael van der Mark? For now, all remains quiet over the Pata Yamaha front
The wsbk article does somewhat contradict the motorsport one, but it is older. In the end everything is just a rumor for now, we have to wait and see what actually happens.

Day done. Sordo with a gearbox/clutch problem and Ogier doesn't seem happy with the car, looks like it's gonna be a Neuville and Tanak fight for the win.

a win for Sato is a step closer of honda indy japan at suzuka

that would be wonderful

Problem is they haven't had a Japanese driver beside Sato since Hideki Mutoh eons ago, and Sato is old as fug, so it's distinctly likely there will be no Japanese driver in American open wheel for the first time in decades pretty soon.

they'll probably bring Matsushita over after he fails in europe

That varies alot from person to person. The ones i regularly watch are WEC, IMSA, ELMS, Indycar, V8 Supercars, WRC and big endurance events like Bathurst 12h. I have also been getting into motorcycle racing recently especially EWC and MotoGP with a bit of WSBK aswell.
Aside from that i watch pretty much whatever is on if none of those series are on: NASCAR, DTM, Blancpain, MXGP, etc.

stick to nascar

was there even any passing in BoPLM?

Oh i forgot i also started following Super Formula this year.
1 or 2 between Vette and Ford.

Man, so much stuff. Guess I'll try to look into IMSA, ELMS and WEC at least. I'm trying to get more into WRC and F1 too, especially since I have a way of watching F1 now.

How's the popularity of IGTC?

>American telling someone to stick to Nascar

While IGTC is technically a championship most people don't really care about it, people watch each race as a unique event. Some of the races are fun though, Bathurst 12h is spectacular, Spa 24h is also good, the American round has been irrelevant so far, Suzuka is a decent race and Kyalami is gonna be run for the first time this year so who knows how it will be.

Sports cars is great but you have to be careful because the skill levels are all over.
Currently WEC, IMSA are the only two you NEED to watch.

WEC this season is basically on life support so I’d advise skipping desu.

IMSA is always good, factory teams and the best privateers come. Ordinarily I like WEC better but given the series is in full collapse until hypercar just ignore outside Le Mans.

Also, IMSA has really great tracks. WEC has great tracks as well but again with the recent collapse they race the bare minimum to meet world championship requirements and that’s it. And that means some lame tracks in the Mid East and China.

What's the problem with ELMS then? European drivers being worse than US ones sounds weird. Also, which of the IMSA cups is the one people watch, or do they have overlap?

ELMS doesn't have pro classes

Ah, I see. Well, thanks for the info. I think I can start watching stuff based on this.

>That little slide ruined Mark's whole day

LMAO

People should watch it regardless because the racing is very good.

IMSA used to be AMLS but it’s much bigger and the name was changed because it weirdly competes with WEC over ELMS.

Nothing wrong with ELMS or Blancpain tbqh. Very good and at times better than WEC. It’s just there’s a lot of gentleman drivers and it’s quite hard to get good coverage and follow without dedication.

Also, keep in mind the WEC and even F1 via FIA decided that they were no longer ‘european’ series and were ‘global’ ‘world’ championships.

Well the same guys running the european series took some money from places like Bahrain and host a race there. The audience is largely european and it’s run by Europeans and raced by Europeans using european engineering.

The guys just decided they were a world championship and it’s all branding. They do have the races on 4 continents but The races in China for example are usually paid for by the government and have empty stands.

IMSA meanwhile says international in the title but only races on one continent. The competitors and manufacturers are european and American and Japanese. Which is about the same level as WEC but IMSA doesn’t do races in Europe or Asia obviosuly. Thé US and Europe and Japan have the only good tracks desu. WEC should just fuck off with the World part and race in Europe and the US and Japan. Europe has a bunch of 10/10 tracks that are ignored by WeC in favor of shit in the Middle East. IMSA atleast stops at all the 10/10 US tracks which makes the series worth it

I’m just saying don’t fall for the marketing gimmick to think WEC has more prestige. It’s a facade. The whole series would be deader than ever without Le Mans which is the only event keeping Toyota and co funding cars for it.

When you see a Brazilian car manufacturer and a Nigerian car manufacturer racing we can deal it ‘world’ for now its euros deluding themselves in some weird post Cold War idea of global harmony.

I watch WEC IMSA Blancpain and the 24 hour races.

I recommend IMSA

Bitch please there is nothing Japanese about Mazda or Acura.

Funding

Fuck I missed VIR gimme a QRD.

You faggots suck also. We have 3 fags in here that watch IMSA/WEC when we should have weekly rave threads.

youtube.com/watch?v=basNjtv1FH0

Seems like Toyota Team starts day rather stupidly. Just giving away lot of time and saying they are takeing easy and drive safe. But they do not calculate fact that their opponents do not drive safe and not even normally, they push couse they need atlest defend posions from thouse who are back and that way they also take time back from leaders, so Toyota is no so smart.

Call me retarded but has anyone noticed that Formula E is really struggling from a popularity standpoint?

The Subreddit has 23.5k followers but as of now there's only ~50 people online. Most posts have 0 replies at all, with a few threads struggling to get only 5-10 replies, and the most recent race thread having only 175 comments.By comparison, the race thread for the NASCAR Xfinity Series at Road America had 1,300 comments, with the post race thread having a further 900 comments.

Minor league NASCAR is obliterating a major open wheel series in terms of fan interaction. Yet fE continues to have massive amounts of funding and shilling thrown at it.

I think it's a in house commentator team, atleast i recall something like that when the tv channel was still up. See if they have previous races archived, you could use the free trial to see how it is.

dailysportscar.com/2019/08/27/toyota-get-further-weight-increase-for-silverstone.html
>A further 14kg has been added to both Toyota TS050s ahead of Sunday’s four hour Silverstone opening round of the 2019/20 FIA World Endurance Championship.
>That sees the minimum weight of the Toyota TS050 Hybrid sit at 932kg for Silverstone, 14 kilos up from Barcelona, which was itself 14 kilos up from the final round of last season.
>The latest change sees the TS050s running at 108 kg heavier than the pair of Rebellion Racing R13 Gibsons, and 99kg heavier than the Team LNT Ginetta G60-LT-P1s, the non-turbo and turbo-powered non-hybrids still featuring different EoT values.
Toyota got a bit overweight during the break.

Why did they drop Phillip Island?

>As previously reported, Queensland Raceway and Phillip Island were tipped to be omitted from the schedule as the championship looked to condense its calendar while welcoming back a night race at Sydney Motorsport Park after it was dropped for 2019.
They better have not turned Sydney into another "Night race" like Barbagallo.

The Perth night race is early because Perth is two hours west of the bulk of the country. The Sydney one doesn't have that problem. It does have the problem that Sydney is no fun allowed town so who knows.

The problem with Barbagallo was that they had so much light illuminating the track it almost looked like the sun was out. Sydney had a very good balance in 2018 so i hope they haven't done anything to it.

Formula:meme is literally in existence because Dieselgate and German board execs are green fanatics who think it will convert people from Christianity to bro-liberal greenism.

It’s sort of a missionary mission trip style thing of Grunism and a money pit but worth it in their eyes because they think you will use Al Gore lightbulbs and pay $40k for a car that has 500 double A batteries lined up in the floor boards if you watch it.

Based, love will power, please record it.

Based pls record wills reaction

Hes a shit driver and total meme, and I lived in his hometown. He sucks. Why hire a total midfielder ever? Better to take a risk on some euro fag from F2 than pay a guy with no money to get top 20s all season.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he has the highest finish in the Carlin car this year with 6th? Hes been steady getting top 10s every race this year with almost no prep since he doesnt even know where hell he working in 2 weeks. Also, what do you care if a guy brings money, pay drivers like Chilton make a mockery of the sport

Carlin has always run pretty good ovals. Chilton was running too 5 at Indy last year or the year before. I’m looking at Daly’s performance since he started INDYCAR 5 years ago. He’s just not going to ever be a top driver. Even running Andretti stuff this year he was meh.
Id i was going to hire a driver for my team id go F2 at this point. Or try to bait a Porsche factory driver over.

wtf

I'm new to racing, can someone redpill me on Nascar cup, xfinity, trucks and arca?
My uncle was super into Nascar, but I was a kid and not. (American expat) I was just going to start watching races from the current season, but there's four series?

Chilton was in a ganassi car when he had that run at indy. He finished 22nd last year and DNQ this year. Conor took that same car to consistent finishes . And he was running really well at indy for most of the race until that final restart. He might not be a championship driver, but hes better than several drivers currently in the paddock with full time rides

Monster is the big one. Xfinity is the minor league and Trucks is a tier below that. But the good drivers like to dick around and race xfinity and trucks too, which pisses some people off.

ARCA is a competitor.

NASCAR is actually cool, I didn’t appreciate it until iRacing. But desu, IMSA and INDYCAR are what I watch.

>NASCAR Cup
This is the top series and what most people refer to when they say NASCAR
>Xfinity Series
This is the next highest level. Regulars in this series are often poised to become cup drivers, or older drivers who never really made it in cup. Current cup drivers will still compete in some of these races
>Trucks
The lowest "national" level series. These are young drivers starting their career or truck series veterans. Kyle Busch is really the only cup driver that runs these races to pad his wins. Still a very entertaining series though
>ARCA
just acquired by NASCAR recently. Its considered lower level than the trucks, but sometimes xfinity or trucks drivers will run some of the races. This is the first big track stock car racing experience for a lot of NASCAR drivers

You shut your whore mouth. The fact that he's competitive at all in a Carlin vehicle tells you all you need to know.

The super license system mostly makes sense, but one of these is a joke.
>FE on the same level as WEC, Indycar, and F3
FIA is trying way to hard to push FE. How the hell is FE closer to F1 than Super Formula? The cars, tracks, and competition share literally nothing with F1.

If the point of the super license if to probe that you can handle an F1 car, then how is youtube.com/watch?v=ztcJUL8_LOo more relevant than youtube.com/watch?v=MO1KZ5kZqog?

Here's a more up to date list. As for your question i'd say the level of drivers in the series is probably a reason for it.

How long until WSBK has a higher percentage of British riders than BSB

Racecars are gay

about as long as it took the gp categories to have more spaniards than cev

I like how MotoAmerica was created to be a feeder for the world championships but it's just like IndyCar where most of the competitive people ran out of money and opportunity in Europe and settled for the local shanty hut to avoid retiring, and all the kids still try to get into CEV or something.

How is racing able to exist without a ton of spectators watching it? Do enough people watch it on tv justify to sponsors that it's worth throwing money at?

Every sport is becoming a tv sport

Racing is barely that, outside of like F1 and maybe peak redneck like WoO and monster trucks (if urbanization doesn't get them) it's going to be a country club amateur sport like golf, equestrian, sailing, etc. pretty soon. As a grassroots spectator sport it's all but dead in most of the world.
