  1. Wow, what a talented girl. To think that someone her age races open wheel cars is already jaw dropping, but she also holds a FIA Formula 4 lap record at Okayama, and that's at 12 years old!!! Unbelievable.
  2. So now that Porsche are not competing in WEC's LMP1 category anymore, they decided to do some fun stuff with their three-time Le Mans and 6 times WEC title winning prototype car in a spectacular "what if" scenario to give it a proper send-off before retiring it completely, and sent Neel Jani to do a test lap on Spa with it. The result - a new unofficial circuit record of 1:41.7, but apparently their goal is 1:36, and they are planning to do the same on other classic circuits too. Next up is a demo lap on the Nordschleife next month just before 24 hours of Nürburgring, I wonder if they are going to beat Stefan Bellof's record too They went completely bonkers on the car and basically freed it of all fuel- and aero-restricting technical regulations (free fuel flow, larger front diffuser and larger rear wing with DRS, modified floor and added side skirts for more ground effect) so the 919 Evo is now lighter (849 kg, so 39 kg less), more powerful (720hp + 440hp from the hybrid system instead of previous 500hp + 400hp), and the downforce and grip level is just enormous (53% higher than previously, and higher than that of an F1 car), and even then it doesn't fully exploit its technical potential. Just take a look at the lap record video, the way it climbs up Eau Rouge/Raidillon is just unbelievable and the cornering speeds are incredible! This is so cool... I want Group C back...
  3. Gasly taking the piss out of Alonso "Now we can fight"
  4. Yeah, the English title and the description are just generic and sound stupid... Give it a go, I'm sure you'll like it.
  5. And enough titanium in his leg to set off security scanners at airports!
  6. @El_Loco Season Two is now out, and it's quality!
  7. The mechanic seems to be doing better!
  8. He underwent surgery in Bahrain, but it seems that Vettel helped organise his trip back with the private jet, so still very nice of him.
  9. For me, Márquez (yes, put the accent there for you ) is too reckless and too dangerous with his all-or-nothing mentality at times. There's being fierce and aggressive (you have to be if you want to win), and then there's taking it over the top - and he does it often, and did in lower classes already. Can be a loose cannon at times and put others in danger, somewhat similar to how Simoncelli was (RIP).
  10. It also probably has something to do with Rossi not really being known as a reckless dirty rider in general.
  11. Gotta love it how Rossi's garage told MM to fuck off though
  12. Yes, multiple leg fracture check the F1 thread
  13. Fully agree, but that's favouritism for you... Bloody ridiculous.
  14. 30 second post race penalty for Marquez
  15. how he still hasn't been black flagged, this is fucking ridiculous
  16. He's a complete nutcase, going to get someone killed one day...
  17. Fuck off, now he pushes Rossi out too.
  18. Miller defending well, but I doubt he'll manage to keep it until the finish... Rins having a good race.
  19. Now we only need rain, would be perfect
  20. What the fuck, now he's pushing others out of his way
  21. Still should have started from the pits instead, this is by far lesser punishment And yes, rooting for Miller for sure!
  22. yeah just posted it at least they didn't let him get away with it.
