if you win a indy car championship or two could you make the leap to f1 driving?
yes
could you explain more? Like how yes? Also what is a junior driver programme
:newspaper: | Why Andretti’s slow start in IndyCar in 2022 raises questions
anyone can do f1 as long as they have a super liscense
are you trying to go to f1 lol
yes
through indycar, nearly impossible
teams sign junior drivers so they have a program to get new people into the sport
how do you get to be signed?
go fast
good cv
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.
for one you need to be mind bogglingly rich or a once in a gen talent
yes I understand that
and unless you have won legit everything in karting you arent going to get to f4 straight out of karts
what do you do after karting then
formula vee or formula ford
tax
do i recommend him one of the mods
isn't formula ford almost the same as f4
no
indy car would be a good way to get there but I don't like oval racing
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
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
?
could you potentially go to europe to race
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
karts, formula vee, formula ford 1600 (depending on your local series formula vee and formula ford may run ovals) formula renault, f3,f2,f1
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
It looks like Richard Childress Racing and Team Trackhouse are going to be real forces to be reckoned with this season.
so is their formula ford/vee near me? then I can leave for europe and get throught the others
guys the list of events this week will be tomorrow, couldn’t do it earlier because of lack of time
the only formula vee series and ford series i know of are run by scca which is only in america
im not sure about canada
working hard on myself and for the entrace tests that are in 2 weeks
but anyway let’s keep it #motorsports
money probably
be rich or be the next goddamn lewis hamilton
💸💸💸💸
oh no no no you still need the money
you've probably got to be both
even karts are fucking expensive
how did most f1 drivers get to f1
most good shifters will be 10 grand
like what were Norris's steps on becoming an f1 driver
parents were pretty rich
Coughs in Brandon Jones
how about max?
dad was a driver
This is the other motorsport series channel
so also rich
Why can’t we talk about that instead?
i mean it is related to feeders and other stuff
There is a channel for that.
is their any other motorsport series that aren't moto gp and nascar that are watched and get paid a lot
k guess I'll just give up bye
honestly the only motorsport that north americans can get into is nascar or indy
unless of course your dads Michael Latifi
Yeah. The Europeans don’t like yanks in “their” sport
im betting scott speed left a bad taste in their mouths lmao
Maybe. That wouldn’t have happened had they chose Allmendinger.
wait allmendinger was up for the drive
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID8dv7o045A&ab_channel=Kaaveh5 tomas Scheckter appreciation post
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...
we love latifi
It takes a sacrifice.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
Yes and it turns out there are many of them near me

I mean, it's a big deal.
iracing was the only reason I had a decent shot at getting a formula vee drive
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.
i got sponsored for iracing and they were willing to give me a good portion of the cost to go to formula vee
By whom, if you don't mind me asking?
but i couldnt get the other funding secured
I'm just exploring options, myself.
I want to know who to reach out to.
Do teams hand out iRacing sponsorships?
teams dont companies who make sim products do
buttkicker was the main one
How do you make that connection happen?
big name leagues and road to pro in iracing
I figured that's what I had to do.
unless you get into f1 esports getting the connection is nearly a nonexistent chance
Hopefully people look at the iRacing MX-5 Cup. That's what I've wanted to focus on.
I was lucky enough to get into a podium esports event and did well
people mainly look into nascar road to pro and dirt racing for sponsorships
I guess I don't have much of a choice, then.
due to road being so big there is a lot of good drivers out there
Yeah, I can imagine.
:newspaper: | Honda, Chevy satisfied by first track test of 2024 engines
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
I'll have to see what works out. I still need to upgrade my setup to something better.
would it fit in a miata tho
Yes you can fit a damn V12 in there
has anyone done it yet
I doubt anybody in oublic has access to a Honda MotoGP engine

@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.

it was still a stupid decision to move Daytona away from July 4th weekend
daytona 500 ends up going to a night race just cuz of how many crashes we see
Coke 600 is night
its also run same day as Indy 500
I wanna go now
but uh some drivers try to do the "Indycar NASCAR double" where they do the Indy 500 and then the same night they do the coke 600 Kurt Busch did it before
6th in the indy 500 that night and then won the coke 600
been to 2 Daytona exhibition races they were awesome
its better in person
Hot
you smell the fuel burning (idk if others like that scent might just be a redneck thing lmao)

What time is Italy for Gt world challenge
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
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
Thanks. How are the GT World Challenge series related if they're regional to continent?

excellent save
yeah it was very well done
hhhhhhh
can someone tell me about Le Mans?
its a 24h race
5 classes 3 types of cars
3 drivers per car
and in 2023 a modified nascar is gonna race
takes place on a semi-permanent, semi-street circuit called Circuit de la Sarthe near Le Mans, France
since 2018, Toyota has won Le Mans
Look F1 is cool and all, but road racing can be just so much more fun to watch
a Hybrid would take around 3 minutes around the track
seems interesting
I am gonna have to get more into other motorsports I just dont know where to find it

yes
Since GT racing seems pretty accessible, compared to something like F1, it seems there's alot of races and championships with confusing names. Compared to series that have one type of race.
How would you keep up with it? Do you just watch GTWC Europe?
Or like, just the 1 hour sprint races and none of the endurance races?
Ah nevermind I think I found a universal schedule with all the races from each continent.

i really don't get how that happened
i mean they're all under SC and still far away from the restart
was there too much effort to red flag it
and it doesn't look like the Lambo is suddenly slowing down
so instead of red flagging you stop on track and half

but im gonna watch Moto2 and MotoGP
Where do you watch MotoGP + Moto2
you can probably find that information on their website
yeah giving local information isn't particularly useful
Its on NBC but its only like 5 racers, and the video pass thing is expensive

What’s the difference between GTE and GT3 cars
GTEs are about three times as expensive, tend to have more complex aero and no one really wants to race them anymore
they also don't have as many driver assists as GT3 cars do

how many cars are there even in GT2?
14ish

Lol
ferrari in some places
14 cars
Yeah and it was pointless then lmao
If they combined GT2 hp with GT3 downforce it would be sick like the old GT1s used to be
At least if they were racing older GT3 or 4 cars it’d make some sense
old bloke has cash wants to race
but doesnt have enough money for comeptitive racing
gt2 it is
Well, but also doesn’t want to do something cheaper
It fills a niche that barely exists
Hence why only 14 cars show up and it’s a snoozefest when they do
But that logic doesn't make sense as a GT2 car would be harder to drive and put more strain on the engine
You can't say it's better than GT3 for gentlemen drivers when the additional power puts more strain on the engine and less downforce makes it harder to drive
And did Chad just call this a packed house?
Like I don't know why in the hell Nascar switched this to a day race this year as the attendance was going to drop through the floor

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

:newspaper: | Albert Park S5000: Mawson wins Race 1 thriller
what does the original even want to say??
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.

Porsche then pulled the shutters on its endurance operations at ...Keep reading

Can someone explain the appeal of nascar? I'm new to autosports but f1 seems so much better
the diff nascar tracks are just different ovals
seems like there's less variables
There's also road courses, but some people just prefer stock cars, same way you prefer F1
Im not personally a fan, but I can see why some are. Still watch the Daytona 500 though
IMSA long beach quali time
I see so it's more about the style of car instead of the track
Basically some people prefer raw straight line power versus tech tracks

Man, Ty Gibbs is such a pussy
If your gonna fight someone you have to take the helmet off
OOF
WE’VE GOT PUNCHES… at a NASCAR race? 😳

The video of the fight
how come this is relatively common in nascar (compared to other racing series at least)
nascars can take more beats and bangs so usually more conflict between drivers
And its also part of the culture, Nascar originated from the white blue collar south where brawls are more common in society, that's just how it is
while in open wheel one tap and ur done for and no more fighting
well yeah but "take more beats" should refer to the cars, not the drivers
Ty Gibbs also doesn't know how to lose yet. He's a 19 old that's won half the season so far because he runs through people and drives for his grandfather who owns one of the best Nascar teams. He has to learn a thing or two before he can move up to the cup series
well since the cars can survive more hits it’s more likely that the same 2 drivers will keep on hitting each other
especially since the races are long and tracks like martinssville are small
that might explain his temper
And if you're gonna fight someone you have to take your helmet off, its another one of those unwritten rules of Nascar
Just heard about Jimmie's injury
I hope he recovers real quick and get back into the car asap.
the ending to the V8 supercars race was bloody crazy
James courtney and Chaz had a nice tangle up on the final corner on the final lap
Ty Gibbs and Sam Mayer met for about 10 minutes in the NASCAR hauler, NASCAR's Wayne Auton told The Athletic. Gibbs and Mayer shook hands on their accord before leaving the hauler. NASCAR considers the matter over.
Congrats @gleaming totem, you're now on lap 15
Just the contrast
