(I hope these symbols are ok in this historical context)

[buoyant shale]

I think it's fine(?) In this context

[lone zodiac]

when was the track created/opened

[buoyant shale]

70s I think

[fiery girder]

i would say its fine because of the context

[buoyant shale]

Used to have a underpass

[tacit garden]

the first race was in 47

[buoyant shale]

1947 lol

[tacit garden]

yeah it had an underpass and in some historic version the hairpin was further back as well

actually, funny story; the entire site is basically nazi buildings.

and there's a former transformer-building

[buoyant shale]

And well modern

[tacit garden]

that building is now a burger king but you can still tell a certain shape used to be on the wall

[buoyant shale]

HMMMMM

Problem is you probably can't get that off either

[hearty marten]

A nazi Burger King hmmm

[tacit garden]

it's even stranger when you consider that with some imagination the Burger King flag has a certain resemblence https://static1.bigstockphoto.com/4/0/1/large1500/104437499.jpg

[hearty marten]

Omg

[buoyant shale]

Also fun fact it's called Norisring, Noris being the Latin word for Nuremberg because well, Nurembergring would cause confusion with a little bit more well known German circuit

[tacit garden]

I think they had a joke about that on the Grand Tour

[buoyant shale]

Nürnbergring*

Nuremberg is English version of the city name

Yeah Nürnbergring and Nürburgring... Easily confusable

[tacit garden]

they should bring F1 there and rename it to Norrisring

[buoyant shale]

oh god the fanboys would go wild

[tacit garden]

[buoyant shale]

And man the continues haha they named circuit after Lando Norris jokes

Basically happens every time you bring up the Kymiring in Finland

"They named a circuit after Kimi haha"

[lethal yacht]

"James, this is not the Nurburgring. This is Nuremburg"

[tacit garden]

Oh turns out lando did race there in F3

and I was there

[eternal ravine]

and you were Lando?

[buoyant shale]

Which btw actually was named after the river Kymijoki

[tacit garden]

of course

I also saw him at Hockenheim in Formula Renault

he almost lost it and tapped his opponent on the rear wheel

[midnight kite]

Yeah... don't rely on a single rider to carry the whole team... otherwise he might end up out of the scene for a whole season and show how much of a stone age is the R&D on your bike

[viscid radish]

Grosjean is actually making me interested in Indycar

But yeah why are backmarkers allowed to defend against people lapping them

i.e. Grosjean vs Johnson

In F1 that would’ve been blue flags

Instead we saw Grosjean sending it catching air off the curb and bouncing past Johnson

[midnight kite]

The JJ48 and Grosjean wheel banging at the Corkscrew had CART 2001 vibes

[viscid radish]

Holy shit that was the Corkscrew?

I watched a heli replay

So it all looks flat lol

I was thinking I don’t remember Laguna Seca having an Esses section like that

[midnight kite]

Oh wait... wrong race, the JJ48 vs Grosjean wheel bang at the corkscrew reminds me more of Zanardi vs Herta in 1996

[tight quiver]

I love this

i hate blue flags

really pushes the drivers lapping since they have to push more

did anything change?

[tight quiver]

yes

[fluid cobalt]

But like... Why's that... Whack? Tho?

[viscid radish]

Im the total opposite

From an F1 perspective, imagine having to lap Mazepin, Magnussen or Maldonado in the past

Also, consider what happened in NASCAR between Brad Keselowski and Carl Edwards

Edwards was 150 laps down when he came back out on track, just to wait for Keselowski to come around again so he can send him into the wall

I tried googling and got nowhere😂

[fiery girder]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs-trk42vFo

this is one difference

[fiery girder]

they have a engine manufacture championship

[foggy fulcrum]

I swear to fuck if iracing tries to charge me for this imma buy the Tundra

But otherwise damn that looks sexy

[buoyant shale]

the entire way the iracing pay system is laid out is preventing me from getting it

[foggy fulcrum]

It’s expensive

[buoyant shale]

I dont have too much time to spend on simracing and its too expensive

So currently no

Even if i think it looks like a fantastic sim but

[foggy fulcrum]

Like personally it’s absolutely worth it, there literally is nowhere else with better racing

But yeah it’s several hundreds of dollars minimum

[fiery girder]

more expensive than all my racing games put together

[foggy fulcrum]

And that’s like, if you stick to one kind of racing lmao

[buoyant shale]

If it was less expensive, wasnt subscription... i wouldve gotten it

[foggy fulcrum]

Technically I’ve spent more on Gran Turismo but that’s because I bought a PS5 for it

[fiery girder]

if it was $200 but not a subscription i think it might be more reasonable

[buoyant shale]

I dont necessarilly mind paying for tracks and cars, just the entire subscription thing i really dont like

[foggy fulcrum]

Yeah it does kinda suck it’s both

But whatever what can you do

The pricing is a large part of why the racing is as good as it is so

[buoyant shale]

in ways yeah that only leaves the most hard core simracers most of the time but on the other hand your making it very hard for simracers who dont want to spend as much on it to enter it

[foggy fulcrum]

If you report something, a human looks at it. And in 10% of reports, someone ends up with a ban.

That’s really what you’re paying for at the end of the day

[buoyant shale]

getting banned /s

[foggy fulcrum]

The fear of getting banned is real

It works

People don’t fuck around because you literally can just get temp then eventually perma banned for that

[buoyant shale]

Ive tried AC open lobbies once and i got kicked from a race for something i think i wasnt at fault at

[foggy fulcrum]

ACC lobbies are garbage

Finding them is impossible, and the racing quality is trash

[buoyant shale]

Yknow Seca the awkard as fuck left hander before the Corkscrew, yeah side by side through there, i was on the inside and we just made contact while i left enough room, but in any way the other driver spun due to that

Anyway we should probably move this to #racing-games if we’re gonna keep going lol

There's no such thing as IndyCar team standings but they are a part of the Big 3

Or well, kinda becoming Big 4 slowly

Andretti, Chip Ganassi and Penske have historically been the best teams in IndyCar

Arrow McLaren might be close to joining them as a 4th big team tho

Andretti is like the 3rd best team imo

I see them like Red Bull during 2016-now

Chip Ganassi definitely the Mercedes of Indycar right now

Is the andretti team the strongest in Indy?

[brittle sentinel]

one of the strongest

[obsidian fulcrum]

Cool

Grosjean set for wins

Would be funny if there's Haas Indy team and he drives for Haas even after F1 though

How does this work, are the cars numbered?

[random compass]

cars are numbered by team preference

[obsidian fulcrum]

Why is the car called "No. 28 DHL Honda" then

Do they sponsor the individual car?

[eternal ravine]

In Indycar; the numbers stick to the cars, not the drivers

[fluid cobalt]

Numbers are essentially bought by Teams, to then be tied to sponsors

[paper brook]

change the bikes

it’s almost always the lower classes

because they rely so much on slipstream due to the low power and top speed

close slipstream reliant racing with inexperienced teenagers is a recipe for disaster and people have been calling for change for years

it’s total inaction on the organisers side and it’s 100% on their hands

they kill teenagers

for entertainment

[fluid cobalt]

What engines do the lower classes have?

[zealous spindle]

how did dean berta die??

[old snow]

Apparently he was run over

[paper brook]

300cc engines so similar to moto3 bikes

[zealous spindle]

oh god

[old snow]

It’s been quite common this year

It’s really unfortunate

[open raptor]

Yeah and a lot of them have been so young…

[fluid cobalt]

Humst...

I guess the idea is more torque then?

[flat steeple]

Im honestly shocked

[paper brook]

u either change the bikes, get rid of it altogether or let more teenagers die

[weak pendant]

Man

Shocking news

They need to change the engines

And the safety regulations

[exotic meadow]

how can you improve bike security

unfortunately getting run over isn't something you can svoid

It's like getting t boned in open wheels

[fluid cobalt]

So uh... 700cc's that rev lower for more torque for the same power so they all have the go for helping the slipstream issue?

[exotic meadow]

yea but how is that related to getting run over

[fluid cobalt]

Because you're less likely to get run over if you're less close together at that level

[exotic meadow]

its a spec series

ofc theyll be close to each other

and btw

the guy who hit him was very far from him

he was getting up when he got hit

[buoyant shale]

This is just step 1 of his masterplan to win the championship

Next step is bribing someone to DNF Palou and Pato

[plush quarry]

@tight quiver

[plush quarry]

even better: power starts behind pato and alex 💀

this could actually be such a fantastic race tomorrow

[buoyant shale]

Also

If Newgarden wins + most laps led
Palou can still finish 24th, doesn't have to DNF

Newgarden will win championship on countback

[plush quarry]

and it's newgarden

when he's up front with no reliability concerns

he'll dominate

Pato O'Ward (@PatricioOWard)

We had enough for the fast 6 today. Yellow flag = slow down. Maybe next time what we should do is not slow down and actually complete the lap that was going to transfer us just like others did.. who btw DID NOT GET penalties. stuck with 8th for tomorrow. #LongBeach @IndyCar

As per @RACERmag, Tatiana Calderon is under consideration for an #INDYCAR drive as AJ Foyt Racing may expand to three cars in 2022.

Both AJ Foyt Racing and Calderon are backed by ROKiT and Calderon had an encouraging test day with Foyt at Mid-Ohio this summer.
