if you win a indy car championship or two could you make the leap to f1 driving?

Is Andretti Autosport’s sluggish start to the 2022 IndyCar season a temporary blip, or the portent of an unrewarding year? Team COO Rob Edwards spoke with David Malsher-Lopez.

good cv

river yew
#

So, I live in canada and am 14 years old and haven't started yet but im going to be starting soon. Before you say im to old to start, Litifi started karting at age 13 and is in f1. I want to do f1, what would be the best way to get their. should I just climb from karting to f4,f3,f2, then to f1 or should I do it differently because of my scenario.

exotic wing
exotic wing
#

and unless you have won legit everything in karting you arent going to get to f4 straight out of karts

river yew
#

what do you do after karting then

exotic wing
dry atlas
#

tax
do i recommend him one of the mods

river yew
#

isn't formula ford almost the same as f4

exotic wing
river yew
#

indy car would be a good way to get there but I don't like oval racing

exotic wing
#

as someone who thought they hated oval racing its hella fun once you do it

#

i ran karts at elko speedway which is a 3/8 mile and it was the best time of my life

river yew
#

can you give me what you would do to get to f1 the easiest for me? like a step by step process of climbing the ranks

#

?

exotic wing
river yew
#

But then what would I do?

#

is the best way to go from karting to f vee, f4,f3,f2, then to f1? is that the only option

exotic wing
#

thats if you wanna go to europe

#

if not karts, formula vee, formula ford ,usf2000,indy pro 2000, indy lights, indycar then f1 if you get a shot

#

getting to f1 is a astronomically low shot

magic egret
#

It looks like Richard Childress Racing and Team Trackhouse are going to be real forces to be reckoned with this season.

river yew
#

so is their formula ford/vee near me? then I can leave for europe and get throught the others

brittle sentinel
#

guys the list of events this week will be tomorrow, couldn’t do it earlier because of lack of time

im not sure about canada

brittle sentinel
river yew

is there a quicker way to get to f4?

or f3

you've probably got to be both

im betting scott speed left a bad taste in their mouths lmao

magic egret

Maybe. That wouldn’t have happened had they chose Allmendinger.

exotic wing

wait allmendinger was up for the drive

magic egret

Yes

#

RedBull picked Scott Speed over AJ Allmendinger and Ryan Hunter-Raey

Tomas Scheckter passes SEVEN cars in one fell swoop entering turn 3 at Indy a few laps after a restart. This pass was actually setup a lap or two previous as the spotter at the time, Pancho Carter, told Tomas that traffic was starting to bunch up ahead of him and that he should get a nice opportunity to pick off quite a bit of them pretty quick...

I'm twenty, still in college, and I've been making plans to pull off a last-ditch effort to fulfill a childhood dream.

#

I have money on-hand, but no more than twenty-thousand. I've been fortunate enough to have my education covered by scholarship, so I've tossed around the idea of putting it into a kart, or a budget racer in a lower SCCA class.

#

Of course, that's the gamble I wanted to mention.

#

You should never put your eggs all in one basket, but if I don't try now, I probably won't ever be able to.

#

This is probably the situation you're going to be in, especially in high-school.

#

You won't have as much free-time until you've graduated, but still, that's six years more than I have.

#

Make good use of those six years.

#

It's too stressful if you wait as long as I did.

exotic wing
#

as someone who made a balls to the wall attempt to get into to formula vee as a 14 year old its really hard

#

and I didnt get it

vivid stream
#

I think the most important thing to focus on is getting someplace, rather than somewhere, if that makes sense.

#

I'd love to get into IMSA, but realistically, that probably won't happen.

#

If I can at least race in one SCCA race, I think I'll be happy.

#

The fact that you at least tried is something to be proud of for life.

#

Not many people take the initiative to put a dream into action.

river yew
# vivid stream It takes a sacrifice.

thank you man, this is really helpful, but most importantly its encouraging. I think I have a new plan, start karting just for fun, then if im good at it try formula vee/ford/4, if I'm good at that I'll go higher and higher and who knows I might make it to f1! But I am not going to feel pressured to be an f1 driver, I'll do it for fun! See if I'm good enough but also not going all in and dealing with a huge amount of stress of not making it. I think you way of thinking is the right way, thank you very very much much and I hope I will talk to you again.

vivid stream
#

Public karting places are a good way to start with the time you have.

#

During the winter, I spent some time in them just to stay in touch.

river yew
#

Yes and it turns out there are many of them near me

vivid stream
#

Always mess around on sims, as well.

#

We should never take them for granted.

exotic wing
vivid stream
#

I mean, it's a big deal.

exotic wing
#

iracing was the only reason I had a decent shot at getting a formula vee drive

vivid stream
#

Never before have we had people jumping so far up the motorsport ladder so suddenly.

#

We have people our age, even younger, getting right into proper cars after several virtual championships.

exotic wing
#

i got sponsored for iracing and they were willing to give me a good portion of the cost to go to formula vee

vivid stream
#

By whom, if you don't mind me asking?

exotic wing
#

but i couldnt get the other funding secured

vivid stream
#

I'm just exploring options, myself.

#

I want to know who to reach out to.

#

Do teams hand out iRacing sponsorships?

exotic wing
exotic wing
vivid stream
#

How do you make that connection happen?

exotic wing
vivid stream
#

I figured that's what I had to do.

exotic wing
#

unless you get into f1 esports getting the connection is nearly a nonexistent chance

vivid stream
#

Hopefully people look at the iRacing MX-5 Cup. That's what I've wanted to focus on.

exotic wing
#

I was lucky enough to get into a podium esports event and did well

exotic wing
vivid stream
#

I guess I don't have much of a choice, then.

exotic wing
#

due to road being so big there is a lot of good drivers out there

vivid stream
#

Yeah, I can imagine.

floral urchinBOT
#

The initial test of the 2024-spec IndyCar engines from Honda and Chevrolet has wrapped up at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s road course, with both manufacturers declaring it a success.

exotic wing
#

but people find oval racing boring because they think its just cars in circles

#

so a much less group of people who do it and are good it at

vivid stream
#

I never really wanted to be a stock car driver, but I guess it's something I have to try.

#

I don't have many options.

exotic wing
#

only thing road has going for it is special events where you wont be noticed unless you win in top split against a big name

vivid stream
#

I was hoping to take advantage of the smaller MX-5 Cup brackets.

#

I know iRacing has sent some winners off to teams, there.

#

That, and it's the league I wanted to aim for, anyhow.

#

After all, it's a step below GT.

exotic wing
#

i mean right now if your brain fuckingly fast at the glen in the f4 you have a reasonable shot of having a irl skip barber f4 drive

vivid stream
#

Skippies and the MX-5 Cup cars were what I wanted to focus on.

#
  • Primarily the Cup.
#

I guess I'll have to throw in an oval race, just for the greatest outreach possible.

exotic wing
#

if you get a class oval you can do road to pro races where you have a shot of being in the official nascar iracing series

vivid stream
#

I'll have to see what works out. I still need to upgrade my setup to something better.

@river yew, I completely forgot to mention the Micra Cup, which is a big thing in Canada.

This is the one league I wish we had in the United States. If I'm not mistaken, it's the most affordable car league in operation.

#

It might not be an open-wheel league, but it's something.

#

I think they might be switching to the Sentra soon, but still, it's extremely affordable.

What time is Italy for Gt world challenge

clear field
#

Question! So I'm getting into watching GT racing, but there's a few confusing names and series.

I started watching Formula 1,2, and 3 this year, but I also tuned in to every IMSA and WEC race this year so far.

#

I see there's GT World Challenge and GT America, but the World Challenge is separated by continent, so there's also a GT World Challenge America series

There's also the FIA GT World Cup

What are all the differences

slate halo
#

GT World Challenge series (which are GT World Challenge Europe, Asia, Australia and America) are managed by SRO, FIA GT World Cup is supporting Macau Grand Prix and GT America is like support series for some IndyCar races I think

How fast is an F1 car compared to IndyCar, WEC, Super Formula and more

This all started from us being irritated. Back in 2016, the first time Autosport undertook a project to rank the world’s major categories based on lap time, the impetus came from the annoying crowing of a cluster of so-called motorsport authorities that LMP1 cars from the World Endurance Championship were faster than Formula 1 machinery. Not that we dislike the WEC – far from it, we love it ...Keep reading

Right, time to settle some arguments. Where do the world’s and UK’s leading categories stack up on lap time? Here’s our take on it, using data from 2021

In modern day Nascar most drivers need multiple primary sponsors to run the whole season, and since Fastenal in this case only sponsors around half the races its awkward to see them use two of them in the same race by displaying it on both racecars on the team. However, people have made memes about it saying how this practice isn't as uncommon as he thought it was.
