What’s with the gratuitous Supra hate? Especially with regards to Han’s Veilside RX-7*, probably the most hated car in the early series. I could understand people being upset if a CG Brian O’Connor were driving around in a MkV painted to resemble the “ten second car” from the first film, but the attitude here seems to…

Why would they need to supply their own power units in order to be considered a “works” team? McLaren doesn’t supply their own power units. Lotus got their engines from pretty much everyone.

A byproduct of the deal is that Racing Point is going to become the Aston Martin works team:

“I’m giving you 1 star.”

Don't forget that the current Mercedes team used to be Honda before they were (briefly) Brawn GP.

Porsche at Le Mans. Quite a few times at that, as they were so dominant in the ‘80s that even after they scuttled the factory team, privateers continued to win it for a few years after. Same story with Ford at the end of the ‘60s. After ‘67, Shelby American pulled out and left it to the Brits to win with a Mk I in ‘68…

The point of the article is: clearly not Bugatti. Also reflected in his stewardship of Lamborghini, given the number of one-offs and limited edition runs they produced and sold at insane prices. Ferrari and McLaren also both have to know the fate that awaits their bespoke designs (let's all try to forget about the…

Kind of feel like this interview didn’t age well. Thinking that listening to your co-driver and caring what they have to say is how you end up not doing shit like this:

Yep. Exactly. I feel like if a WRC Yaris went off the same way that RS200 did, it probably would have resulted in nothing more than some dented bodywork.

Congrats to WTR! Glad Kobayashi is getting another chance at winning Daytona, Sebring and Le Mans in a single year. Bummed the Corvettes didn’t do better, but it was the first race for the C8.R.

I keep coming back to that Tanak crash thinking about all the Group B footage I’ve seen. If this had been 40 years ago, their fuel tank would have probably ruptured when they hit the tree and exploded on impact. The fact that Tanak was giving interviews today where he seemed annoyed more than anything else is just a…

I discovered that I could watch the coverage on NBCSN at 5:55pm... five minutes before their TV coverage ended. 🤦‍♂️

I’ve seen a few videos of presenters getting to drive Formula One cars (Richard Hammond on Top Gear is probably the most famous). The amount of skill you need just to NOT STALL these things is epic. It’s crazy how if you drive the cars too SLOWLY through a corner you can end up with not enough downforce or heat in the…

McLaren said if they could race a single car at both Daytona and Le Mans, they’d build one. COME ON, ZAK BROWN. GIVE US A RACECAR.

I always thought they were designed to hold standard depth grocery bags. I could swear I've seen ads showing them used to that effect.

That rear weight bias tho. 

This has been a bad year for motorsport calendars.

Setting aside the religion discussion, two stars on Charity Navigator is pretty abysmal

They should do more of this.

Damn, this song has been anthemic for me a few times in the last few years. I feel such sympathy for Sufjan Stevens for those crazy scary health problems he endured, but HOLY SHIT, Age of Adz was an incredible by-product and way to transmute that suffering.
