So how does one watch more of these cars with racing

[south flower]

[celest merlin]

DACIA

[jade ruin]

It’s been running like for so long now

[south flower]

keep tuning into nls races for the rest of the season

[dusky trout]

Watch le mans this year

[noble palm]

waiting for that max verstappen ig post when he subtitles it with some bullshit like “Rough end but some pace was picked up 💪😁”

[south flower]

watch spa

[heady sorrel]

Lesssgooooooo dacia 120th is gooood for that car

[dusky trout]

Its gonna be fun if ferrari wont sweep everything up again

[jade ruin]

Beat p1 like 20 times

[dusky trout]

Is the team american?

[jade ruin]

🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

[dark slate]

Was this due to some of the drivers being american?

[south flower]

@twilit laurel you seeing this stuff or did you sleep

[dusky trout]

Seems like the team is

[zealous torrent]

Winward is German

so idk

[dusky trout]

Whos the american of the team

[south flower]

no american on winward, right?

[jade ruin]

3 of the drivers were german, 1 was belgian

[zealous torrent]

Winward has a US division but this is Winward Europe. They’re German on the entry list

idk why they used the US anthem

[dark slate]

Why was that the US anthem then

[jade ruin]

Not sure

[south flower]

agh glad i missed that why they playing that for winward europe

[zealous torrent]

because we should always be grateful for the usa

[plain vector]

ig windward identifies american now

[jade ruin]

Maybe because the team as a whole is American

But they registered as german

So yeah

[plain vector]

this is the europeam windward no?

[jade ruin]

The guy with the beard and long hair

[frosty vapor]

winward racing, is us based

[crude token]

It's ||the trophy||

[naive portal]

I'm confused why they played the American national anthem. I don't know how they normally do it at the 24HR Nurburgring. There's 4 drivers, and then there's the team. How do they pick?

[zealous torrent]

Yeah HTP (German) combined with Ward (Texan) so it’s like half American but still should be Winward Europe

[jade ruin]

Won the 6 hours of Le castellet

[quartz mesa]

Just glass with the 24h logo and gold bronze and silver on

[dark slate]

Winward is Texan based?

Toro Rosso #80 won the race, #84 made a recovery drive, Dacia finished 120th, #3 car imploded and the American anthem was played for some reason

[unreal plinth]

toprak, fernandez and rins also got penalties for tyre pressures

what an absolutely wild weekend of motogp this has been

[agile thunder]

Yeah I hope none of those accidents get repeated. I don’t watch and I’m kinda glad I don’t because I’d be stressed until I knew they were okay. People were saying they wanted to introduce street circuits too?

[main urchin]

From what ive seen, every fan instantly yells out 'NOOOOO' whenever street circuits are proposed

[agile thunder]

Fr

Street circuits are okay in IndyCar and F1 sometimes but mostly they’re boring and dangerous. Can’t imagine if those happened on a street circuit

[main urchin]

Walls that close would be disastrous

Alex's crash was so severe because thats a place where crashes arent expected to happen to the wall was right there

I hope for their sake that they don’t go ahead with street tracks for MotoGP

[hardy relic]

i have a query, if F1 cars face the superclipping on straights to charge up the battery, why doesnt the same occur in Le Mans Hypercars?

is it just because the Hypercars have sufficient power to charge the battery and reach higher speed?

[opaque marlin]

superior doctor doom would know

[viral warren]

Front axle regen + not 50/50

[hardy relic]

how does front axle regen affect superclipping on the straights?

[viral warren]

Means that if you have 2 back to back straights or a straight with a chicane in the middle then you’re not going to run out of battery on the second one

Well you might still run out but you’ll have more energy

[sturdy vortex]

most braking force is in the front tires, not rear tires. more braking force means more regen so more times the battery is not empty

[quartz wadi]

Interesting, I was under the impression it was just the 50/50. Any reason why the F1 cars don't have front axle regen?

[viral warren]

Yeah

Their logo consists of rings

[twin holly]

Because most manufacturers rejected it since Audi does have experience with this tech

[twin holly]

I would add that since WEC is about endurance and the main strategy is about conserving the equipment and fuel, most of the time we have LiCo before the end of straights

Plus, the amount of Kw/hp deployed by the electric motor is just a big higher and around the same figures that ERS had last year

Which ends up being less than F1's figures given BoP does touch with energy deployment

This will be such a game changer

[foggy fulcrum]

Romain Grosjean the only wrong choice

[trim hare]

It is

Severe illness, he will miss the Coke 600

Austin Hill (From RCR’s Oriley series program) will substitute

[astral knot]

Please tell me there is another option

[trim hare]

The decision has been made

Jesse Love is rumored to be the backup for the 78 of Legge

Who’s doing the 500 600 double

So…. Yeah

[viral warren]

[astral knot]

Jesse Love is right there man

21 year old reigning O’Reilly Champ (rightfully Zilisch’s title but whatever) vs 32 year old who has never won an O’Reilly title

[mortal cedar]

[heavy void]

Wow

[mortal cedar]

[old osprey]

[heavy void]

Deaths like this puts life into perspective

[half kiln]

[sly moat]

[prisma urchin]

This biggest death in Nascar since Dale Sr. RIP Kyle

[astral heart]

Awful time but that’s a great pfp

[sly moat]

i wonder how brexton will do without him

[timber storm]

Reports saying he had a Brain Aneurysm

[heavy void]

What a loss for the motorsport community

[half kiln]

i immediately thought it would be something like that, or a stroke

[prisma urchin]

First The Biff, then Rowdy

Wtf 2026

[heavy void]

Let's not speculate if poss

[prisma urchin]

Agreed

[half kiln]

yeah

his family didn’t say for a reason

[old osprey]

his illness is not yet confirmed according to the nascar site so

don’t just make stuff up

[sly moat]

austin hill in the car full time?

[old osprey]

or rather, it hasn’t been disclosed

[manic palm]

It just popped up on my YouTube recommended and I legit thought someone pressed the wrong button or something, wtf man

[astral heart]

You gotta think it’s just gonna be empty out of respect right?

[sly moat]

yeah

[old osprey]

there’s no way they’re using the car this weekend at least

[heavy void]

Boy that radio call from May 10th just got a lot more sinister

[astral heart]

If they don’t I’d lose all remaining respect for the series. After everything he’s given

[old osprey]

it’s too close to the 600

[heavy void]

Maybe sinister isn't the right word

Ominous

[sly moat]

at least if they do enter a second car change the number

bring thr 29 back maybe

[heavy void]

Kyle on track 10 days ago asked his team to find him a doctor post race

[astral heart]

[dense fractal]

As a nascar fan I was a huge fan of Kyle busch ever since 2014 sad to see him go so fast

During the truck race at dover During the interview he was coughing a little

[trim hare]

Signs were there, but I don’t think anyone could have imagined this would be the result….

It shows just how good he was though

Winning races even as his body unknowingly started to fail him

[dense fractal]

Yea no one expected this fs

[ocean mural]

Indianapolis Motor Speedway:

[trim fog]

it's insane i cant believe it

[versed leaf]

I’m just shocked he was my favourite driver

Almost didn’t believe it

[dense fractal]

I almost didn't either a friend texted me that he passed and I double checked and gasped all the emotions came in at once 😭

[gaunt elm]

Kyle's been my favorite NASCAR driver basically ever since the first race that I ever watched. This is super heartbreaking.

[languid pond]

same

also i have the diecast of this car

gonna hold onto it forever now that kyle's gone

[dusky trout]

Holy shit kyle busch is dead

His fuckin m&ms car in gt5 will always be remembered

rip

[versed leaf]

I’m playing Forza Motorsport rn with the Kyle bush number 18 mms car

[obsidian knoll]

it doesn’t even feel real oh my gosh.

[versed leaf]

Please let this be a nightmare he’s too young

[lapis dove]

i refuse this timeline

literally NASCARs most popular driver dead its not possible dude

[versed leaf]

It’s Greg biffle all over again

[lapis dove]

I think this is bigger because we haven't had a full time active cup driver die since earnhardt

both are absolutely tragic tho fuck

[magic egret]

There is now not a single NASCAR Cup Series race where every driver is currently living.

[trim hare]

Crazy stat

[broken moat]

It's been over 2 decades since an active cup driver died during the season

crazy

[trim hare]

Not since 1978 has a NASCAR cup series race happened without a driver with the last name Earnhardt or Busch

48 years

[weary canyon]

what the fuck

i woke up 5 minutes ago

What happened???

[jovial kernel]

The 1978 NASCAR Cup Series season is the only season since 1960 that either Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, Jeff Gordon or Kyle Busch did not win a race.

[twilit laurel]

we won't have moments like this anymore 😭

[weary canyon]

i dont believe this

how did this happen??

[twilit laurel]

yeah nobody does

he got terribly sick out of absolutely nowhere

[weary canyon]

i woke up to this im trying to process it

[weary canyon]

OVERNIGHT??

[twilit laurel]

he was admitted to hospital literally mid day

[weary canyon]

HE WAS FINE LIKE 10 HOURS AGO WASN’T HE?

[twilit laurel]

it was a few hours between the bad news and the terrible news

[weary canyon]

what the fuck..

[twilit laurel]

yeah i still can't process it

[weary canyon]

oh my god so i slept, it was fine. 9-ish hours later and he’s just gone?

what??

oh my god

[alpine void]

theres a whole bunch of rumors related to it and I dont wanna speculate and such

[twilit laurel]

yep.

[alpine void]

I mean.. when he was hospitalized, they used the term

"serious illness"

but i'll go with what AP have said lately

[trim hare]

Reports were that he was in the Chevy race sim on Wednesday

[weary canyon]

oh dear lord

[trim hare]

When he suddenly fell unconscious

[onyx harbor]

Man

[weary canyon]

wait so he genuinely was just

fine

[trim hare]

He was rushed to hospital but…Well…..

[weary canyon]

and then

gone

?

[onyx harbor]

I'm not a Busch fan but...

41 is way too young

[trim hare]

Not sure

[weary canyon]

too young…

this is terrible bro omg

[alpine void]

yeah people are saying it may be related to when he was sick at watkins glen 2 weeks ago or dealing with a sinus issue

[onyx harbor]

Shit makes me reflect on how valuable and short life is

[onyx harbor]

Wasn't the announcement of Busch missing out on Charlotte yesterday?

[alpine void]

yeah but, hold on

Busch was thought to have had a sinus cold While racing May 10 at Watkins Glen, Busch radioed his team requesting a “shot” from a doctor after he finished. Per the TV broadcast, Busch had been struggling with a sinus cold that was exacerbated by the intense G-forces and elevation changes at the New York road course.

It’s unclear if that issue had something to do with his death.

From the associated press article

[coral hatch]

I cannot believe Kyle Busch is dead.....

[alpine void]

completely unrelated to the charlotte stuff,

[weary canyon]

Yeah did he not have a sinus infection earlier??

I read about that like a week ago

[weary canyon]

indeed

gosh i cant believe it

[alpine void]

I mean this does seem like it came out of nowhere.. theres video of him go carting with his son a few days ago on the kids birthday

[onyx harbor]

He literally said this days ago before his passing...

The timing is just terrifying-

[onyx harbor]

Oh so it's been an issue weeks ago?

[alpine void]

We dont know. Literally

[weary canyon]

god

[weary canyon]

i this is terrifying..

[weary canyon]

yeah.

[onyx harbor]

Dude I know-

[sacred pelican]

I made this image on TikTok I'm sorry if it's rushed

[versed leaf]

I guess will have to wait until further word and speculate on what caused his death

[alpine void]

Well this is the latest that we found out about

https://x.com/i/status/2057659066487296314

Racing Territory (@RacingTerritory)

The Associated Press is reporting that Kyle Busch became unresponsive while testing in the Chevy simulator on Wednesday.
