For the first driver you can understand, but the drivers after should really see that and not make the same mistake. 4 minutes ago, Tommy said: Rain and Karts on slicks. It's basically like they're on ice. Brakes and steering is like 90% reduced. Also if you're aquaplaning, you're not supposed to turn the steering wheel or hit the brakes anyway, just hold it straight and gently ease your foot off the accelerator. Doing anything else will just make it worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not too far from reality The "other guy" is actually the driver of the car, he got out of the burning car, ran to the barriers, got the extuingisher and put it to work before the marshall was there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted June 6, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted June 6, 2021 Grello wins! What a race though... Too bad we missed so many hours due to weather conditions, but so much action nevertheless. Battle for P3 between 4 cars on the last lap was thrilling. Kevin Estre is such an incredible driver.

Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted June 19, 2021 Moderator Share Posted June 19, 2021 Just watched the Formula E Mexican GP. Wehrlein lead from start to finish, and as soon as he crossed the finish line he got disqualified for technical infringements.

Moderator Tommy 12,616 Posted June 25, 2021 Moderator Share Posted June 25, 2021 Did some reading up on Alice Powell. She was actually quite successful in Formula Renault, GP3 and F3.

Eco 3,008 Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 @nudge - Did you get a chance to watch the Porsche SuperCup Practice just now?

Don't really watch Porsche SuperCup, already have too many series on my watchlist And yeah, hopefully there's rain all over the weekend, would spice up the race even more.
