Sebring is already off, as teams and drivers can’t get there, FE has also postponed races.

According to the reports the McLaren team member was tested after he experienced symptoms, so it is very likely that he contracted the virus in Woking.

Am I the only one who is surprised that there is an infected team member? A race team with a nine-figure budget should be able to get 50 people isolated and tested before departure. Even if insurance/government don’t cover it, it would be a neglible cost compared to the risk to both employees and their own business.

Not quite sure what exactly Utah laws say, but i’d be surprised if that is possible with a vehicle that is registered for road use

The best thing about this rule was always the fact that about a year before it was introduced a german website ran it as April fools joke.

Has everyone forgotten the canadian and austrian GPs?

The problem so-called city-EVs is that people who live in the city often live in apartment buildings and for that reason have difficulties charging at home, thus rendering the car pointless

While this should influence front right height a bit, this looks like it is more beneficial to tyre management than aero

Road cars are cost-driven and ride height behaviour is pretty irrelevant for their performance(unless we’re talking hypercars, where costs wouldn’t matter), so the motivation for using such things is pretty small.

They have to cross-check with vision, if they relied on maps alone a temporary speed limit(for example in a construction site) would get ignored if there are not enough other cars around. However, this raises further questions: Can the car understand conditional speed limits? In Germany, there are speed limits that…

I think the biggest problem the Supra has is the F22 BMW

Somewhere in a BMW warehouse there are transmissions that would work, and also for the 3.0l. The B58B30 engine was sold in europe with a manual in the M140i/M240i for about two years from the facelift/engine change until when WLTP became mandatory. That might explain why there is no manual Supra

Over here a used M240i with B58B30 and manual is about 30k€, and because they were only built for about a year they are so rare that depreciation should be very limited, and it does have some practical value as it does have a back seat.

The fuel used by the cars is almost neglible, its less than a percent of total emissions.

Not sure how it is done in the US, but in the EU there is a maximum allowed length for trucks, so to maximize cargo space you have to use a cabover

Making H2 cars light is not as easy as people might think. A fuel cell car always needs a buffer battery, similar to a Plug-in hybrid, because of the fuel cells bad transient behaviour, and the tanks are also quite heavy.

Ionity didn’t raise the price of charging 500 times.

Now, what do you do with C8 wheels?
Currently, you can’t really sell them, as they should have part numbers that don’t exist yet.

Two more interesting things about this car:

Considering Teslas reputation for emloyee rights it will be very interesting to see IGMetall roll into town when this factory opens.
