Andretti was originally going to buy Sauber, but the deal went sour when Michael said he wanted control of the team.

It’s because current Sauber leadership is retaining control. Andretti wanted full control of the operation which Sauber management didn’t agree with.

That’s a W198 300SL roadster. Now why they decided to have a photo of one in an article about the Pagoda (W113), I have no idea.

Disney realizing that nothing of value would be lost by removing it.

I mean, all their previous engines were based on the Nissan VRH35.

Meanwhile, ASICS is straight up sponsoring Tokido (a former Evo champ) and even has him in one of their commercials.

It’s such a crime that Slam Dunk never aired on TV in the west. The series shows such a great love for the NBA, from drawing inspirations from NBA stars to drawing inspiration from clips and magazine covers for certain panels.

It’s not about “opening them up to everyone,” it’s about opening them up so you can have your choice as to who repairs it and not having to continue to pay John Deere like they have your livelihood hostage.

My favorite Paul Newman memorabilia related story is still that of his Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. This was the watch that Joan Woodward had given him as a present with the words “Drive Carefully Me” engraved in the back, as a reminder for him to stay safe when he was racing. That watch eventually became one of the most…

FWIW, it looks like they’re running F2 cars, so they can always just claim that it’s meant to be some other event that’s not F1.

Apparently, Gaiman has stated that it doing the eyes that way didn’t look right and it robbed Sturridge of his ability to use his eyes to act.

Except Mario Kart had its own drift mechanic, which in earlier installments was open to even more levels of git good with snaking.

Alonso timed his move for maximum chaos. Looks like he was aware that Piastri’s contract was ending on the 31st of July so announced his move to Aston just as that deadline expired, all while knowing that the latter (and his manager Mark Webber) were talking to McLaren.

I keep wondering if America just doesn’t have enough of a cultural connection to Godzilla for a western release to have the same level of story as something like Shin Godzilla. That Japan’s post-war culture and the big G’s place in it make it easier for creators to do more with the character, and with Kaiju films in…

Imaishi is a big part of why I’m looking forward to this.

This isn’t just Taylor, a lot of private jet owners loan them out to help offset the cost of ownership/maintenance.

Four hours after the flag is still longer than two hour s and forty minutes. Spa last year was longer despite taking only 2 laps.

Besides, the point still stand in that why is an endurance racing series running a sprint in such an iconic track, when it could have had a proper endurance race at Indy.

The IMSA Battle on the Bricks will be a two-hour and forty-minute race

Stuff like this happens in sports as well, even in the big ones. Just look at the Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix where a the race director—the guy with final say on all decisions—made a very questionable interpretation of safety car rules that went against standard procedure, and essentially affecting the outcome of…
