IndyCar’s marketing has been a letdown for a long time. But yeah, tyres seem to be fine, it’s been two races but I hope we don’t see the situation where mediums last an entire race. Tracks like Monza and Baku will be critical, the straight in Las Vegas as well.

BUT… I’ve got no idea what’s going on anymore. It’s just too technical.

I get things like push-to-pass, KERS, all that, but this is way to much over the top. There’s barely any skill in some of these passes, as they say it is Mario Kart, and it wouldn’t surprise me if they quietly clamp down on this pretty quick.

Had a bit of a laugh watching quali in China too it did seem like the broadcast was cutting away from onboard shots right when super clipping was happening so it wasn’t as obvious.

And if China is meant to be a “good track” to show this tech off, I’m a bit worried. What’s this going to look like at Spa? Lifting through Eau Rouge to charge up the hill, then backing off halfway down Kemmel to save for the next section, down a gear through Pouhon at 70kph down from last year, that doesn’t sound great or a great look.

I’m actually kind of excited for Monaco. If it’s dry, this could end up being the most interesting Monaco race since what, ‘92?

What gets me is teams were calling this years ago (Red Bull, Ferrari, etc) and got told they were just fearmongering. Now here we are. I get Audi and GM have committed to this direction, but if fans start switching off and the bad press keeps building, the FIA will have to do something.

I’ll hold judgement for a few more races. But if it’s still like this by round 5 or 6, I reckon a lot more people than just me will start tuning out. And just like Max, more drivers will start sounding off and losing interest too.

If IndyCar don’t absolutely nail their marketing around the 500 and the championship this year, they’ve missed a trick.]]> torana_05 F1Tue, 17 Mar 2026 11:00:31 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181201#msg-1181201 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181201#msg-1181201
'Battery wars' with people overtaking each other every lap seem fun at first (before they manage to get out of the battery reset/lag/gap I'd imagine), but it is artificial way to make entertainment as liberty was declaring since they acquired the sport. Their motto is 'People need entertainment, not boring competition or true sport' and this year i dont see myself watching this anymore. Thankfully i have some gp4 ai championships to follow on youtube (ff1m is the most delivering by far, highly reccomend), and my own fantasy championship once i'll have time for that...

Most fun observance for me was that now modern f1 is very very close to gp4 somehow. Anyone who saw enough of gp4 races can confirm that if md file has driver errors set to high values, you'll see lots of cars suddenly going twitchy which results them getting slower, hard breaking, slamming into one another or slightly going wide or out the track. Now the modern f1 engines manage to switch between electric and oldschool modes to catch drivers into uncomfortable moments. I saw qualy today and Bortoleto's crash was exactly like gp4 incident when car suddenly gets loose and this is simply cause modern engines are annoying to say the least. But those 1st rounds are good for my bank account tho. Betting on Mercs win and less than 17 cars finishing the race delivers for now.]]> hasbeenbannedfromuse F1Sun, 15 Mar 2026 18:23:43 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181189#msg-1181189 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181189#msg-1181189 Parachki F1Sat, 14 Mar 2026 22:47:17 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181174#msg-1181174 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181174#msg-1181174 hasbeenbannedfromuse F1Fri, 13 Mar 2026 23:19:25 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181172#msg-1181172 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181172#msg-1181172-------------------------------------------------------

The bigger issue is Cadillac, they are gonna introduce their engine 2 years later so FIA can’t just decide to change the rules in 5 years time as that would mean Cadillac spent all that money and time on a short-lived engine]]> Parachki F1Fri, 13 Mar 2026 19:29:29 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181167#msg-1181167 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1181150,1181167#msg-1181167

And he did it with an illegal overtake with all four wheels off track over Tsunoda, having two british stewards (one of them Derek Warwick, the same of the 2021 British GP) helping him to avoid a penalty.

Note that at US GP in 2024 he got a penalty for doing exactly the same with Max.

And also at US GP iirc Vettel got the same penalty: 10 seconds.

FIA just did not have the courage to punish him because they were not interested in Lando fans insulting them like Lewis fans are insulting them since 2021 even though Michael Masi followed the rules as they were written back in 2021, and also followed a teams agreement since Spa 2021 for the races to end in a green flag unless there is a force majeure (safety issues). Mercedes agreed with that, so they cannot complain.]]> Castello F1Wed, 17 Dec 2025 13:00:55 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1179615,1179711#msg-1179711 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?3,1179615,1179711#msg-1179711 George90 F1Fri, 12 Dec 2025 20:45:25 +0100
