not true at all, in 93 mansell came over for a full season as the reigning f1 world champion. There have been absolutely kino 500s in the last decade as well

Why has Britain shitted up /f1/ so much since the season began, especially these last three Grand Prix's. In the offseason it was only me shitting up /f1/.

>>75933933
Yes. The series merged again almost 10 years ago but the original fanbase has never come back (except a few lifelongs like me). Seems to finally be picking up a little steam in recent years though, and the races are quite nice

>>75933986
that's not saying much

it's very easy to beat 7 years nowhere near the points in dtm

why not go the whole hog and say that winning a fuel saving race, with half of the field not there, is a greater achievement that carmen finishing last in every gp3 race for three years

>>75934047
>What are the chances that Toyota comes back to F1?

Actually I've read some rumors about something something like a gazoo team or however is called being a viable option

>When

Likely with new engine formula there might be new teams and manufacters interested, like VW and mabe, Toyota

>>75934047
I hugely doubt it will happen any time soon

2020 might offer an opportunity, because that's when the engine regulations change. If FOM come up with an engine formula that is cheaper and a bit simpler, then it might attract more manufacturers.

But yeah Toyota are almost certainly not going to join before 2020, because they would have to develop a hybrid V6 turbo from scratch, and it would only last a year or two, so I think hell will freeze over before that happens.

>>75934061
You're not me

>slander and impersonation on an anonymous Taiwanese cockfighting forum where nobody cares who you are anyway

wew, some of y'all take this way too seriously

>>75934050
It's worth noting that Helio Castroneves was leading the race and all of a sudden he was called in for fuel. A very confused Castroneves argued a bit with his strategist(Roger at the time I think) after having been told previously and repeatedly that he was hitting the fuel mileage he needed.

Danica was gifted that win.

>>75934074

It's just weak b8. Ignore his cancer.

>>75934069
Yeah, Gazoo is the Toyota WEC team. They've put together some pretty good cars in the top division, the Le Mans Prototype one, which is why I was wondering if they would do an F1 comeback soon. Engine development isn't really the problem for Toyota IMO, they're already at the top of that in endurance racing.

>>75933990
>Danica was decent in single seaters tbqfhfamdesu.
No she wasn't. She was just mediocre. And afterwards she totally destroyed what was left of her reputation along with her cars in Nascar.

If you're implying that this means they would be able to knock together an F1 engine for the current formula without breaking a sweat, you're wrong

2020 is the absolute earliest that they might consider joining F1, when the formula is renewed.

>>75934146

Not really m8, in WEC they took years to develope their engine and same would have to be done for F1, just look at Honda.\

Plus, besides Haas supporters, no one here is probably supporting a team since the beginning

I don't think so, nips situation is really weird, they are really loyal to their fav team. If I remember correctly in 2008 Honda or Toyota fans chimped out because Japan GP was held at Fuji and not in Suzuka that was a rival's circuit

>>75934219
Stewart-Haas racing, a team much too good for her, but the sponsor money must be too good to pass up. Rumor is she's retiring at the end of the season, on social media she doesn't even talk about racing anymore just yoga, her clothing line, and vegan recipes

>>75934234
And winning a race in Japan with a weak field, on fuel mileage.

No new manufacturers will enter F1 for a while, certainly not during the current regulations. Simply not worth it and Honda killed off any potential interest anyway. If the new engine regulations are something a bit less autismal, I could see manufacturers like Chevrolet and another Japanese one (likely Toyota). Don't underestimate the power of Japanese power-struggles in motorsports, see what happened in WRC in the 90's.

Maybe even something branded from the VW group if they don't get kill by diesel for good and realize Formula E is still shit that no one actually watches

Chevy is already in Indycar, and their market is not only the US. They have put quite a bit of effort into the European markets at least, and produce a fuckton of very bland "generic European" looking cars that just happen to be Chevrolets. I don't think it would be too much of a leap for them and the obvious Haas linkup would be great PR if they don't choke.

What does everyone else think? Haas has made it clear that they don't wish to be a Ferrari Junior team for forever. Red Bull are with Renault only out of necessity. They already had something of an agreement with Audi before the dieselgate thing happened. McLaren might actually lose patience with Honda eventually, Mercedes might just declare themselves eternal dominators of F1 and fuck off after the current regs because they have "nothing more to prove" (and because the new regulations aren't 100% made for them). North America is the biggest growing market for F1, which is why it might begin to be appealing to a US-manufacturer as well. Even the likes of Ford is toying around with Euro-based racing stuff now.

Maybe we could even get a cheeky BMW return, plenty of options for them, Williams, Sauber, why not whatever Force India becomes once Vijay is found dead in an Indian prison? But fuck BMW and the people who drive them tbqh lads

I honestly am not convinced Formula E will become the spectacle that manufacturers seem to think it will

Her looks will wane in the next 5-10 years.
Danica is there purely to show that "Women can do things 2 silly men!" and at the same time be a thinly veiled attempt at sex appeal. She's basically modern feminism.

She'll get to be 38+ with no kids and be miserable her whole life from then on not having fulfilled her biological imperative.

I reckon Ford will come back, as Ford this time.

What would GM do if they enter? Brand their cars as chevy? rotate it based on where they're racing (Holden in aus, Buick in China, Chev in europe etc.)

>>75934272
Formula E will become big when it gets more big manufacturers like Mercedes and if they continue their current advertising strategy. Right now it's a very easy league for new racing fans or fans looking to branch out to watch because all of the races are free and they have a lot of quality content for free outside of the races, too. They just need big names and that's coming with Mercedes.

I do want to see Chevy in F1 but to be honest I think I would rather have BMW or Alfa Romeo come back than see Chevy enter for a bit and then become mediocre and leave. McLaren will end up with Mercedes, also, by my predictions.

Really I just either want Toyota or an American team that doesn't have ties to a team like Haas, since I'm a Penske fan.

>>75934234
She won 1 (one) Indycar race. It was the first series after the merger & they couldn't redo contracts with promotors, so half the teams & drivers were in Long Beach, while the other half was in Japan, where she won.

The series was even worse than it is now, basically.

>>75934343

I somehow doubt that, Ford has been pretty staunch about only wanting to be in series that have road car relevance.(With the exception of NASCAR)
A purpose built racing engine that has no connection to their road cars is not something they're interested in.

Formula E has a devoted following among cucked tech nerds. I'm not joking.

Are you familiar with The Verge (tech website)? I used to love them, but in recent years they have become a leftist hellhole of degeneracy. Funnily enough, this coincided with a large increase in the number of female writers on their staff. What a coincidence.

Anyway, they seem to be obsessed with Formula E and they write about it all the time. Very little mention of F1 though. Formula E is seen as "super progressive green futurist happy smiley future gay space communist", I guess.

Ford has more than often changed their strategy on a dime. I think, it will depend on regulations and how they evolve. If there will be a push to make Formula 1 more car manufacturer friendly, Ford might reconsider, although I agree, that the company would probably need a new sporty marque... or they buy one. VW is probably the most likely candidate to send something forward, be it in the form of Lamborghini or Audi or Skoda or Seat or Bugatti.
The madmen will probably go with a Lamborghini team and Audi engines.

Zach is like the ultimate manlet, how much ballast will the team have to add to his car to get him up to the minimum weight?

>>75934556
It's gonna be interesting.
These top drivers you're writing about all came into racing during the time of Senna and Prost - at the time when Motorsport was the most popular and it was already prohibitively expensive - that only has gotten worse, and Motorsport just isn't as popular because of the decline of many series, safety (consider all of these kids having parents) and stuff like that. We will see more autistic racing children with rich ex-driver dads though, like Verstappen. Families still invested in Motorsport with the capabilities to let them train enough to be decent.

Why are Indy drivers was much worse than F1 hand me downs?

>>75934527

It's honestly one big "into the fences" style crash at an oval away from being banned for good.

The drivers drive respectfully but accidents can happen. In F1, accidents usually have no consequences because the barriers are so far away and there's always ample room to slow down momentum. Indy is like having a barrier right at the edge of 130R or Copse, except they take those corners like 50-60 km/h faster than F1.

It's particularly intense at Indy where you get all these random 1-off drivers participating in this race, who sometimes don't do any sort of other racing in the meantime.

Truly awesome but really fucking crazy

I also don't exactly understand what there is to gain for CNN to sponsor a team like Caterham. I'm sure they didn't have to pay a lot for that deal, but still, its not like CNN isn't a globally recognized brand

They don't even really do anything sports-related and are blatantly left-leaning so why would they care about motorsports at all?

https://realsport101.com/news/sports/racing/f1/renault-need-to-move-on-from-jolyon-palmer

>New driver Nico Hulkenberg, who came over from Force India in the winter, has scored 14 points, has qualified in the top 10 three times and brought the best out of the car every weekend. On the other side though, is Jolyon Palmer, who has had more trips into the wall than he has race finishes. Palmer is without a point this season, has retired twice, and been an expert at having accidents by himself.

>So far this season Palmer has been an average of 1.655 seconds off the pace of Hulkenberg in qualifying. While a big chunk of that comes from a disastrous Australian qualifying, he is still yet to be within a second of Hulkenberg on a Saturday. That margin is extremely worrying, and is far and away the biggest between teammates this season.

>Williams’ rookie Lance Stroll is around four-to-six tenths off the pace of his vastly more experienced teammate Felipe Massa, but he is continually optimistic and positive about his development. He is also only 18, Palmer is 26. If he doesn’t have the pace now there is almost no chance that he will ever have it.
