What turn are you hanging around? Or are you running around with a photo jersey? I missed out on camping passes but have been coming in in the morning and hanging out all day.

Sorry, I forgot to check this thread. Was in the media center most of the time, but also hung out at turn 3 and turn 10 a bit.

They made more than a few, and I am kind of sad they didn’t go forward with making the engine for fellow at-the-time GM satellite Lotus in F1.

But they did make a V10. Go look that one up on your own.

This may hinge on whether you call the Trooper a "Truck".

Yeah I saw a Bathurst recap and that race ending was insane. Driving sluice rain and 90mph racing, real knuckle stuff.

For people reading certain sections of the media today, I feel the need to point out Joey Mawson is an Australian racing driver.

Is there a rally thread or is this it? I'm at the Central European Rally but had almost no downtime for posting. Only caught some rain moving between countries, but not during stages thankfully.

Yeah this is pretty much the "catch all that isn't f1/NASCAR/indycar" thread for racing

Thanks! Seems like it's pretty dead anyway though :v:

I was only able to attend two morning stages on Sunday and they canceled the first one after Neuville crashed into a bridge: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9scbq8

This was only my second time at a WRC event, this time I didn't get any tickets/passses. Overall all the spots I've found were pretty good except one forest place in CZ where I couldn't see poo poo. I do feel like you miss a bit of the atmosphere not being part of the official fan zones and events, some of the concerts and shows last time were fun.

They posted some onboards a few days ago, and I think I must've been there at 7:11 on the right or maybe moved to the left there. Around 7:21 is also a good spot.

With yesterday’s results in Bahrein, Ferrari bagged both driver and constructor championships. It’s kinda fun to see AF corse doing good results with a tenth of the investment or less of the f1 team which is just a money pit. Good luck to Peugeot and Alpine for next year since they are finally starting to get competitive results.
