He’s still won 4 of 6 races this year and 19 of 22 races last year….. he’s won 23 of last 28 races….. not to include the 14 he won in 2022.

it’s been boring as fuck the last 3 years and now watch he’ll go on to win every single race the rest of the year. And it will continue to be boring and unwatchable

and we still have one more year of this shit. The regulation changes and engine development freeze doesn’t get lifted until 2026

 

I’m very aware of this. I was just saying the “finally” read a bit weird when Sainz won three races ago.

 

Very, very excited for the WEC's race at Spa this coming weekend

 

That new McLaren in fast, which gives me hope. Considering that Miami shouldn’t be great for them on paper, makes me think they’re going to be very competitive

 

It still doesn’t matter when he’s won as much as he’s won and the only reason sainz won is cuz max dnfed

 

NASCAR had its closest finish in Cup Series history last night. Kyle Larson beat Chris Buescher by .001 seconds. Two of the four closest finishes in series history have occurred this season.

 

So apparently Trump stopped by the McLaren garage this past weekend and spoke with the team and took photos. That team is now dead to me

 

The hybrid Indy cars will make their debut at mid Ohio

 

They have to get rid of Monaco from the F1 calendar; absolute trash of a "race".

 

Indy 500 has had like 4 cautions already and it’s not even 60 laps in

 

First back to back winner at the Indy 500 in 20 years

 

I hate Newgarden so much.

 

I get the history of it but these cars can't pass there and the cars are just getting bigger. Two passes the whole race is just pathetic. I believe I read that the last on track pass for the lead was 1996.

 

Meanwhile, the Indy 500 was an absolute banger. Still gutted for Pato. Still very annoyed at McLaren for fucking up Rossi’s chance at winning by pitting him too early making him have to save fuel.

 

I’ll take Indy car over f1 7 days a week with the current state of both

 

I do wonder tho how much Indy car will change with the hybrid cars that are coming in a month

 

Stewart-Haas Racing announced they will shut down their 4 car team at the end of the season. Front Row Motorsports has an agreement to purchase 1 of the 4 charters and will expand to a 3 car team next year. Amazing how far this team fell.

 

I'm guessing maybe Haas will plow the money freed up from this into his F1 program

 

With all that money they’ll go from 7th in the constructors to 7th in the constructors

 

When ownership isn’t around and doesn’t care, things fall apart. Harvick and the 4 team held that entire organization up with duct tape.

 

This weekend is the biggest GT3 race of the year, the Nurburgring 24 Hours; will be live-streamed starting on Saturday on Youtube for free
