Why Aston Martin is right to return to Le Mans

Why Aston Martin is right to return to Le Mans

Ferrari returning to the Le Mans 24 Hours was arguably the biggest motorsport story of 2021, while the famous Italian marque’s victory in the French classic will probably stand as this year’s feel-good moment. This week’s Aston Martin announcement should be viewed in a similar way.For sportscar fans, Aston Martin’s comeback is a big deal and – whisper it – endurance competition is the ...Keep reading

He's suing Andretti?

[prime pine]

Wait what

[uneven coral]

What for?

[prime pine]

I thought when he posted that it was just a statement hes leaving andretti

Wtf

[uneven coral]

(Yeah, I've read the statement and I know he's doing that, but what for?)

[prime pine]

Thats

Thats odd

Well his contract did end short

[uneven coral]

What does "arbitration'" mean in this specific context?

[prime pine]

They cut his contract but they shouldve give him money for right

[prime pine]

No clue

But all i know is that his contract was cut short

[wispy latch]

They are rumoured to join at some point

WEC:

Car manufacturers:
Toyota 2
Ferrari 2
Porsche 2 (3 for Le Mans)
Caddy 1 (3 for Le Mans)
Alpine 2
Lamborghini 2
BMW 2
Aston Martin at least 1 (2025)
Peugeot 2
And potentially Honda/Acura at least 1 (2025)

Non Car Manufacturers:
Glickenhaus 1 (potentially leaving tho for full season + 2 for Le Mans, rumours say that they will race Spa to be eligible for Le Mans)
Vanwall 1

Customer Entries:
JOTA (Porsche) 2
Proton Competition (Porsche) 1

Car manufacturers:
Caddy 2 (3 for Daytona 24)
Acura 2
Alpine 1 (2025)
BMW 2
Lamborghini 1
Porsche 2

Customer entries:
Proton Competition (Porsche) 1

[prime pine]

wait jota 2?

I thought they said they wouldnt run another one

Or did it say they wouldnt run a 2nd car to race IMSA?

[wispy latch]

Potentially McLaren, Veloqx and Audi and Ford if they can have money after the F1 programme before the last homologation process in 2026

[wispy latch]

That, no IMSA car but 2 in WEC

[prime pine]

Ohh

[prime pine]

So basically this is group c just not very expensive so there are actual teams competing for the long term

And close racing

[wispy latch]

Yeah

But the class dies in 2027

[buoyant shale]

basically its not that Romain will sue them or itll go to court or that shit

its basically where they hire a guy to solve the dispute

outside of court

since most likely its that Grosjean and Andretti are not on the same level in terms of Grosjean getting compensated (or probably moreso, how much) for his contract being broken early

so they get a guy to look at all the facts and shit and stuff and then itll seek a thing where both parties are like sure bueno and everyone will hopefully leave satisfied-ish

i think

not sure im not a law expert

its basically an alternative if you leave on good enough terms to not go full lawsuit but still have some dispute to solve i think lmao

[wispy latch]

It is?!

First time I hear something about them cancelling the project

[final swallow]

What does this mean?

I'm too NA education to understand (American)

[brittle sentinel]

from a few sources i read yes

but idk if they are reliable or not

but let's be fair i'm not optimistic of these small manufacters entering hypercar class even tho i wish they would

already Vanwall for me it's a miracle they are there, after 2 years of unsuccessful entries

[dusty lantern]

God it’s cold here

[buoyant shale]

Its more of an American thing then anything else lmao

But basically from this i think

Not sure tbh, I'm watching through ziggo sport

[marble ingot]

i got it

is the replay going to be anywhere?

[dusty lantern]

I’m here atm and yeah it’s mainly just been spins and stuff, Moffy smacked the wall down at the Dipper, Hiemgartener’s car was on fire so it’s been a mix

[fierce grove]

You gotta get their streaming service

Unfortch

[cunning stratus]

man i missed 84 laps already

[fierce grove]

It’s been a good race so far

[cunning stratus]

i can imagine

[dusty lantern]

Cmon Mozzie

[cunning stratus]

svg 🙏

[marble ingot]

are these the second drivers?

[cunning stratus]

i think yeah

[marble ingot]

cant be, whincup is driving

[cunning stratus]

but also svg is not driving the 97

[marble ingot]

is he just going on a long stint?

[cunning stratus]

i dont think everyone is with their second driver

yea might

[marble ingot]

why isnt this more popular in america

this shits awesome

[fierce grove]

Fecking hard to watch in the states

Pretty much everywhere in the world tbh

[cunning stratus]

it most likely will be in the next couple of years

because svg went to nascar and won

but also yea its hard watching it

when youre on the other side of the world

[fierce grove]

Yeah only problem is it’s not on cable and not packaged on motortrend

And well

The time of the races

[marble ingot]

but f1 is popular

[fierce grove]

It’s a shame tho, supercars are always good fun

[marble ingot]

from what ive seen the racing is excelent

[fierce grove]

F1 is primarily in Europe friendly timezones, which are mornings for Americans

[marble ingot]

yeah

[fierce grove]

Not dead of night on weekends for Americans

[marble ingot]

its still saturday in america

[fierce grove]

Ye I’m in the americas lmao but it’s not like I have weekend nights free and want to stay up into early dawn to watch racing instead of like…. going out and stuff

[marble ingot]

but its good ass racing

[fierce grove]

Tis indeed lmao and I watch my fair share of supercars but it’s just a niche sport in an even smaller market in the US

[marble ingot]

they had a race at cota

bring some more

[fierce grove]

They should.

[marble ingot]

it seems like a sport that us americans would love

[fierce grove]

They should also MAKE A DEAL WITH MOTORTREND

[marble ingot]

a race at the ims would be cool

[cunning stratus]

oh lead battle

[fierce grove]

Bc even if it’s not a madly expensive streaming service all the subscriptions are death by a thousand cuts

[marble ingot]

i would pay soo much money to see a race at road america

cool suit fail must be one of the worst feelings ever

specially in an endurance race

[cunning stratus]

lets go

[dusty lantern]

Cmon Mozzie

You’ve done well mate

[cunning stratus]

the braking and throttling is so precise, i dont know how you do this flawlessly for 4 hours without messing up

[dusty lantern]

I’ve done it a lot, in the training rig tho, it’s a lot different when your actually doing it tho

[dusty lantern]

Also muscle memory, most of these guys have been doing this for like 20+ years

[marble ingot]

that heel-toeing is just sexy

[cunning stratus]

yeah i guess

but therse so much stuff they do with their pedals in one corner entry its wild

[dusty lantern]

Like James Courtney, he’s been doing this since the late 90’s

[cunning stratus]

and ive heard these cars are really hard to drive as well

[dusty lantern]

Yep

You get one thing wrong and your off in the barrier

[cunning stratus]

yeah

[dusty lantern]

Ehhhh

That’s just normal for a race car

I’m planning to get into Hyundai Excel Cup Cars

So ya gotta learn heal and toe for that

Let’s gooo Mozzie

Got Goldie

[dusty lantern]

Mozzie 2nd

[cunning stratus]

does reynolds have to pit yet

[dusty lantern]

I would think so

I think so would Shane

[native copper]

Didn't Shane pit like 15-20 mins ago?

[cunning stratus]

oh no

the 8 caught air

[native copper]

Also, I might have messed up time difference

I missed 110-ish laps

[dusty lantern]

This stop is for fuel probably

[cunning stratus]

well at least you didnt miss the finish

[native copper]

FR FR

Good thing Singapore is about 3 hours behind

[dusty lantern]

8? That’s out

You mean 5, JC’s car

[dusty lantern]

That’s the position he was in

And still is

[native copper]

Must be on a delay

I'm on 131 bud

[dusty lantern]

One lap behind then

[native copper]

I cannot imagine F1 pit crew members adjusting brake ducts in a stop

[dusty lantern]

Nah

[cunning stratus]

well i would imagine they would

[dusty lantern]

They don’t

[cunning stratus]

make the cars and brake rotors in a different way

so you can take them out easily

should had probably said that in one message

also how many wins does svg have this season

[dusty lantern]

Nearly all of them

I’ll check though

[cunning stratus]

damn

[dusty lantern]

Oh no nvm, he’s won 4

[native copper]

5 if you count the NASCAR Cup series race in Chicago

[cunning stratus]

yes

[native copper]

Nah but really

SVG is a stud

[cunning stratus]

is that a good thing

[dusty lantern]

Ehhh

[native copper]

He's certainly up there as one of the world's best racing drivers

Not all time. Just right now

[cunning stratus]

certainly

when he goes to the trucks series next year in nascar i do not doubt he will win 1 or 2 races

the truck series is like nascar's formula 3 btw

[dusty lantern]

Mmm yes

[native copper]

They'll also do a race on Chicago's streets for the truck series right?

[dim raptor]

@grizzled palm @marble willow

[naive smelt]

@grizzled palm @marble willow I mean to be fair you don’t have to support the driver you think it’s best it’s ok to be lucid about how good they are and still like them

Talking about what you said about rins, JP

I literally support quarta because he’s french and that’s what got me into MotoGP

He’s the first french WDC

[grizzled palm]

What?? No way, if I support a driver they are obviously better than everyone ever. It’s the rules, sorry.

[marble willow]

I supported Fabio since 2019 because I thought of him as a worthy rider of dethroning Marquez, and in the end he did.

He did what Andrea Dovizioso couldn't. (well, of course there was lorenzo's title in 2015, but that's different)

[dim raptor]

Quartararo has more titles than him

[naive smelt]

LMAO fair enough

Me with leclerc 😌

Would obviously absolutely FUCK Schumi, Prost, Hamilton and Lauda in equal machinery

[dim raptor]

The thing is: Quartararo did not face Marquez in a title fight so you can't say he dethroned marquez

[naive smelt]

Bro I remember when Bagnaia fell

[grizzled palm]

I don’t currently like any F1 driver currently. A bunch of rich kids who haven’t had anything go wrong to them.

[dim raptor]

Yoooo same

[naive smelt]

And I called my sister and I was like “HE DID IT HE FUCKING DID IT”

[naive smelt]

Ocon? Leclerc?

[marble willow]

Maybe I should’ve worded that better.

I was trying to say ‘a rider capable of beating marquez’

[naive smelt]

Hamilton

[grizzled palm]

Hamilton is the only one who Id even consider.

However, their parents bent over backwards for them their whole life, and had everything spoiled for them since day 0.

Even in the case of Ocon/Hamilton.

[naive smelt]

Leclerc literally had to stop racing because of the lack of funds

And before that, his parents had already had to pick between him and his brother

[grizzled palm]

Sargeant nearly did, doesn’t mean he’s from a poor family.

[naive smelt]

Then why

Your parents bending over backwards for you to realise your dreams is different than being rich

[dim raptor]

Ah yes Leclerc who got fked over all year in 2022 for the title by ferrari is a rich kid who had nothing wrong

[naive smelt]

Well that’s different he wasn’t a kid then

[grizzled palm]

Just because you don’t have the money to compete in F2/GP2 doesn’t mean your family isn’t well off.

[grizzled palm]

That’s irrelevant.

[naive smelt]

No that was in karting lmao

By F2 he had his sponsors and Jules

[timber umbra]

Bagnaia winning a fluke championship this year

Marquez will show who is really the best next year

[grizzled palm]

Yes, but I mean in general.

[naive smelt]

Yeah but I don’t think you can generalise this

[grizzled palm]

I would support Ocon but he comes off a bit much on track for me.

[timber umbra]

Oh wait he is not because he is bottling it

[naive smelt]

He’s a max Verstappen x RB case without the Verstappen 🤭

[timber umbra]

Anyway I just care about the goat

michele pirro

[naive smelt]

Yeah but who’s there to grab it when he does

[timber umbra]

Martin

He is just like five points behind

[naive smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/rubbing-hands-together-we-bear-gif-21574731

Can’t wait

[grizzled palm]

I will say I do like the way Leclerc drives, and I do like him more than a fair few drivers, but I wouldn’t say I’m a supporter.

[naive smelt]

It’s fine you can also not support anyone in particular and enjoy the sport

[naive smelt]

Didn’t he just hurt himself

[timber umbra]

Yes

[grizzled palm]

I used to support Mclaren before the Ricciardo saga. They truly fucked that man over.

[timber umbra]

I think Marquez will still show that he has it next year because even this year he has just been running circles around all other Honda riders

I expect him to do some nice stuff on that bike

[grizzled palm]

Marc will be competitive but he’s not winning another title.

[naive smelt]

Why not

He’s shown he still has it

[timber umbra]

If he shows he still has it next year then he will have new offers from multiple teams for 2025

Which seems to be his own plan too since he turned down a multi-year for just a one-year

Penultimate race of the season.

And it's GTWC Eu Sprint cup.

[prime pine]

Ouh

Title says GTWC only

As well has thumbnail

[uneven coral]

Well, yeah, but there's no such thing as just "GTWC".

COMTOYOU AUDI HAD AN OFF

[tight quiver]

HE IS OFF

RAFFA

S3 is so wet

[uneven coral]

That's so uncharacteristic of him.

But hey, we have a race in our hands now that he's going to climb the order.

How is that looking for the #88 in the C'ship?

[frank lodge]

what

[uneven coral]

We forgor.

[tight quiver]

he is struggling

[uneven coral]

Championship Implications or the #88 still has the championship lead?

[tight quiver]

it goes to tomorrow

[uneven coral]

Well, Feller is leading the race so I assume it's the former.

[frank lodge]

me when i wait for 2024 wec

[uneven coral]

It was a great opening lap by Marciello up to that mistake.

[tight quiver]

mari is outside the points

[uneven coral]

Interesting.

[tight quiver]

SC in this lap

[uneven coral]

Can Costa finally get a win this season?

I hope so.

This is why Valencia wasn't real.

[tight quiver]

can we get hail

that would be funny

[uneven coral]

lmao

[tight quiver]

S3 is so tricky

we had hail pre race

[uneven coral]

Can S3 just dry up now xx.

[tight quiver]

its funny

especially when the championship leader goes off making it even more fun

ohh niederhauser

weah

comtoyou and #32 touched

#77 and #14

kissy

weah understeer

#46 and #14

[uneven coral]

Good racing so far.

[tight quiver]

OH

#44 OFF THE RAOD

for a bit

[uneven coral]

I think Raffa will make it to the top 8.

[tight quiver]

yeah but timur will throw it

[uneven coral]

Welp, Heinrich.

Vanthoor tried to switchback but it didn't work.

I kinda like the story where the BMW is very fast around Zandvoort but it can't go up in the order due to the nature of the track.

I don't like it when it harms the #30 BMW though. 😔

Heinrich caught up to Costa and Feller.

Tresor pitting early might end up affecting their race.

I knew it.

Knew EFR were going to overcut Trésor.

[tight quiver]

fcy

oh

#54 too

and #112

OH

CRLASH

I LOVE GT RACING

OH

DRUDI AND VERMULEN

DRUDI AHEAD

[uneven coral]

Tomorrow's race is going to be an all-timer.

And so is this finish, I feel.

Go on Thierry.

Trésor wins.

[tight quiver]

The more i watch rallye, the more I wanna do rallye

[wooden patrol]

I'm registered

[magic egret]

This Las Vegas race is stressful. Its stage one. Calm down.

[autumn briar]

Nemechek looks fast jfc from last to the top 10 in like 25 laps

[magic egret]

That crash at the stage 2 restart gave me a Nam flashback

Grala’s motor went

Oil everywhere

Red Flag

[autumn briar]

damnit

[magic egret]

I am so glad those were not open wheel cars

Like

Nothing bad happened

But that scared the ever living crap out of me

[thorn marten]

fucking hell

[solar narwhal]

epic

also yikes

[wooden patrol]

I have 1month and a half to train

if I manage to go through all qualification stuff and manage to do the final, I have a chance to be one of the 2 ppl selected

and the 2 ppl selected are offered a full paid seat for France rally championship for next season

I'm realistic, I don't think I'm good enough for that

but

who know?

it's only 20€

I'm not gonna die

and imagine if I do it

just imagine

[solar narwhal]

as in you actually compete there or just get to go to all the rallies?

[wooden patrol]

wdym?

all races of the championship

of the next season

[solar narwhal]

you said that the 2 people selected get a full paid seat for the French rally championship

[wooden patrol]

yes

[solar narwhal]

full paid seat as in passes to all the rallies?

[wooden patrol]

to drive on all the rallies

I don't understand what you don't understand 😭

[solar narwhal]

ohhhh

I did understand, I was just asking to be sure

[wooden patrol]

ok ok

[solar narwhal]

yea it would be awesome if you get it

[wooden patrol]

yes

racing is the thing I love the most in life

it's my passion

[solar narwhal]

I hope you get it, that would be so epic I'd imagine

[wooden patrol]

when I'm racing in karting I forget everything

I'm just happy

that's the only time I forget everything

I'm just focused on driving

overtaking

going faster

[solar narwhal]

yea I can imagine, it feels like that sometimes when playing the F1 games

granted it's obviously not the same thing but I had something similar when I played some last summer

[wooden patrol]

my absolute dream is to be a proffessional driver

and tbh I'm pretty good at karting

[hard tree]

I guess this is one way to overtake your championship rival

[solar narwhal]

oh damn, that's epic

[wooden patrol]

1st of woman

46th in everyone

on about

30.000 ppl?
