3rd place ! Let me tell you, this was a true relief after the poor couple of races we went through. I almost thought I had it and could win this win... hopefully my first victory will come soon...by Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
Didn't post anything here the past weekend, I went out to get some fresh air before getting locked up home (I'm in Italy, the government asked people to stay home the next few weeks, everything is closed). Being in quarantine, I'll get back into this this week !by Calligaris - Grand Prix 4

SEASON 6 ROUND 1 - BRITISH GP - RACE "After a long wait caused by broadcasting issues, the first Formula L publicly broadcasted Grand Prix is about to begin. Ezequiel Padovano took Pole Position ahead of the race (and thus the first championship point of the season) and will start alongside reigning champion Manuele Piccirillo. The fight for the title is on ! For the complete starting griby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4

Thanks ! I'll run the race this weekend I think.by Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
SEASON 6 ROUND - BRITISH GP - QUALI RESULTS No highlights for the qualis, I'll just share the starting grid and a few comments. There will be race highlights though. 22 - A.Rafferty, Not a great start for the Irishman, last on the grid on his Formula L return race. 21 - M.Bradley, Having both a works and an engine customer car on the last row is not a good sign for Mercedes.by Calligaris - Grand Prix 4

SEASON 6 ROUND 1 - BRITISH GRAND PRIX - SILVERSTONE The teams gather at Silverstone for the first round of Formula L's 6th Season. Silverstone hosted the very first FL Grand Prix in Season 1. That first race was won by Sandro Calligaris, who still holds the record for most podiums scored at the British Grand Prix. Japanese Arata Maki, though, holds the record for number of victories,by Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
The Italo-Argentinian De Tomaso team holds the record for most points scored over all 5 seasons of Formula L. Never far from the top spots, this outfit can never be ruled out for the championship, and they are hungry for victory after Ferguson interrupted their run of consecutive constructors titles last season. They will need to bridge the rather large gap that separated them from Ferguson lby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
Brabham has gained a reputation for building great-handling cars with underpowered engines. They also always relied almost solely on their star driver Ezequiel Padovano to get results, signing a long list of disappointing number 2 drivers, who never achieved any satisfying results. Now though Geoff Brabham, who is taking over the team’s leadership from his father, has vowed to change that. Laby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
RAM Racing was once a backmarker like Team Vaillante, battling for the last positions a few laps down on the leaders, but they too slowly managed to improve over the years. As the two teams climbed up the order a small rivalry started to build up between them, the two fastest growing outfits on the grid. In Season 4 the battle between them reached its peak as they both stepped up their game aby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
15th then... still need to get used to the rain I think.by Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
Team Surtees started its life in Formula L (back in Season 1) as one of the "Big Teams" along Ferguson, De Tomaso and Lec. Their lead driver, Ante Roosevelt, finished third in the championship and looked like he had the pace to become runner-up with a little more luck. It quickly became clear, though, that Surtees just couldn't keep up with the leaders. They fell down to 5th plby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
Ford's "All-American Racing Team" enters its second season spearheaded by their star driver and FL legend Parker Hooper. Their rookie season was the best rookie season ever achieved by any team (except Season 1 of course) as they finished 6th in the constructors standings, beating Escuderia Real's previous record of 8th. The championship ended particularly well as they achby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4

Team Vaillante started its history as a backmarker, they were so uncompetitive throughout Season 1 they would often find themselves being lapped by the next worst car. The team slowly got closer to the opposition, but it wouldn't score its first points until Season 3, when Duff Sergeant managed three points finishes: two seventh and an eighth place. The car was still extremely unreliableby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
Thanks Turbo ! This small Italian team is the second most recent addition to the FL grid, they joined in Season 4 as fellow countrymen Scuderia Italia left the championship in response to worries over the team's owner running Formula L. Their first season yielded not points and a 10th place in the standings, but they were always close to the midfield and first driver Ottaviano Nervi hby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
Did you ever hear, dear reader, the tragedy of the Lec Racing team ? Lec was a Formula L team so powerful it once won the Constructors Championship, but throughout the seasons, the team fell backwards through the grid. In Season 4 it had to let go of both its drivers because of financial problems after Season 3 saw them going from champions to 5th in the Constructors Standings. The team managby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
FORMULA L SEASON 6 PREVIEW Here are all the teams taking part in Season 6, I'll showcase them a few at a time starting from the back of the grid. Mercedes joined the FL championship in Season 3 after Spyker and Shadow retired from the series. They came with high hopes, being a renowned engine manufacturer and the only "works" team on the grid, signing promising German driby Calligaris - Grand Prix 4
