  2. The FIA and ACO have announced finalised technical regulations for the top class of the World Endurance Championship, which has been dubbed 'Le Mans Endurance Hypercars'. On Friday, ahead of the 87th running of the Le Mans 24 Hours, the governing bodies held a joint press conference to confirm the new technical rules which will allow manufacturers or privateers to develop a 'clean-sheet prototype design of their own choosing' or develop an existing road-going hypercar. If using an existing road car, a minimum of 20 units must be produced over a two-year period. There will be a minimum weight of 1,100 kg, with a powertrain average of 750 horsepower and a sole tyre supplier, with the ACO estimating a Le Mans laptime of 3m30s. Hybrid systems will be optional and managed by "deployment thresholds" and can only be activated at speeds over 120km/h in dry conditions. They will be limited to 200 kW (270 HP). Balance of Performance (BoP) will be utilised and can be adjusted throughout the season to ensure a level-playing field. It's hoped the introduction of hypercar regulations will attract a number of new manufacturers, with the likes of Ferrari, McLaren and Aston Martin having already shown an interest. https://www.motorsportweek.com/news/id/23209 Toyota and Aston Martin have already officially announced their participation! Toyota is building a new hybrid-powered prototype based on the GR Super Sport road car that they are currently developing and testing (first released renders): Aston Martin announced that it will run a minimum of two factory Valkyries in the WEC in the inaugural season of the new category (most likely a joint programme with Red Bull); always wanted to see that car on the race track! V12 Glickenhaus is joining too: Porsche, Ferrari, Ford, McLaren are all said to be interested in joining as well from 2021/22. Hopefully more manufacturers will join too. @Cannabis @Tommy @BartraPique1932 @RandoEFC @Eco @MUFC

  4. Have you watched it yet? Just watched it myself... Season 1 was really enjoyable I must say; looking forward to Season 2 already! Loving all the characters and aspects of the show. Chinese Tongs, Irish gangs, corrupt politicians and cops, all the scheming and plotting; a very fascinating dynamic and it's much more complex than I thought it would be once I started watching it. Fight scenes are of course fantastic as well.

  5. Hopefully people don't get drawn in to believing US rhetoric like when Irak occurred and so many others beforehand. When are people going to see that this is an eternal reoccurring situations for decades and decades in the Middle East. Vilifying the Iranian regime when we have much worse in the region with Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the Isreali government in power is where you should keep you thougts locked in when you are watching or reading the news, What's going to be interesting from a personal perspective is how England acts in the present desperation to catch every drop of shit that falls from America's bottom... How much should we please them?

  6. @nudge @Bluewolf NASA spots "Star Trek" Starfleet logo on Mars Sophie Lewis NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) has spotted an unusual symbol on the surface of Mars — the iconic "Star Trek" Starfleet logo. The MRO captured a series of strange chevron symbols on a Martian sand dune in the southeast Hellas Planitia region. The MRO HiRISE (High-Resolution Imaging Science Experiment) camera team at the University of Arizona highlighted the discovery Wednesday, though the image was acquired by the team April 22. "Enterprising viewers will make the discovery that these features look conspicuously like a famous logo," the camera team behind the MRO HiRise image said. According to the team, the shapes on the red planet were created by wind, lava and dunes. They began as large, crescent-shaped dunes that were surrounded by lava after an eruption before solidifying. As wind blew over the dunes, it displaced much of the sand, and eventually left behind "footprints," also called "dune casts," that record the presence of dunes that were surrounded by lava. Latest shots from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter The MRO has been exploring Mars from orbit since 2006, capturing some of the most detailed images of its surface. Hopefully, it finds some aliens sporting Vulcan salutes next. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/techandscience/nasa-spots-star-trek-starfleet-logo-on-mars/ar-AACR14W?MSCC=1560497143&ocid=chromentp
