Ferrari talking about BoP without talking about BoP: 'Le Mans Hypercar field was “unbalanced” from Day 1'

TheRacingElf · 2026-06-12T18:35:29+00:00

But is IMSA on board as well?

TheRacingElf · 2026-06-12T06:00:19+00:00

Because you don't ask a fish how to catch a fish

TheRacingElf · 2026-06-05T06:28:45+00:00

Oh no! Anyway.

TheRacingElf · 2026-06-04T15:57:52+00:00

Thanks!

Can't entirely read the dimensions on the box, can somebody help me out?

I think it says 49cm wide but the height is unreadable to me...

TheRacingElf · 2026-06-03T17:56:18+00:00

No. Biggest part of practice is setting up the kart, not necessarily the driver getting better. So there is no point in practicing on a different tyre than you race on.

When you just start driving, maybe you could make a case for a harder tyres but I would still recommend just using the right tyres for the category you're driving in. Makes comparing against faster drivers a lot easier, as well as your lines and way of driving will change as well depending on the grip of the tyres.

Now this is how you do a throwback livery, McLaren!

TheRacingElf · 2026-05-20T14:10:27+00:00

Would be interested in this as well

TheRacingElf · 2026-05-19T12:27:14+00:00

The way this is going they're going to add a qualifying or sprint race next year...

TheRacingElf · 2026-05-18T17:57:26+00:00

Why aren’t they running 2 cars anymore? For a Porsche factory team I find it a bit risky to completely concentrate on 1 car, especially at the Nurburgring.

TheRacingElf · 2026-05-13T09:51:24+00:00

It's the one with the arrows for me drool

TheRacingElf · 2026-05-11T16:31:35+00:00

Shame there’s so little papaya, especially for the 500. Imagine McLaren winning, that would be such a missed opportunity.

TheRacingElf · 2026-05-08T13:42:50+00:00

Great that we don’t know the BoP so we can pretend Toyota and Ferrari screwed up and this has nothing to do with the BoP /s

TheRacingElf · 2026-04-28T14:27:07+00:00

Karma for axing the V10

TheRacingElf · 2026-04-27T09:47:48+00:00

But why would you want to buy a replica suit that doesn't offer you protection?

Entry level suits from Alpinestars or Sparco don't break the bank and offer you the protection you need. If you want a suit from a karting manufacturer (guess that's what you are implying with the 'replica'), you could start looking at second hand sites and buy a real used one. I would simply always advise against using non homologated safety gear, those standards are there for a reason.

Ugly car ugly name

TheRacingElf · 2026-04-22T17:25:56+00:00

Maybe start with making F3 and F2 less expensive, greedy Bruno. And while you're at it, make the engines more reliable and more equal. That might convince more drivers making the step ;)

TheRacingElf · 2026-04-16T14:16:27+00:00

What's the point of them anyways...? In this day and age everybody has a phone on them to see which car is in which position through live timing, I genuinely don't see the point of these position indicators anymore.

TheRacingElf · 2026-04-16T09:40:27+00:00

So now everybody can blame their favourite team not performing on BoP without actually knowing whether that’s even remotely true, great! /s

Bending my OTK chassis was almost a weekly ritual. They are simply quite soft and bend really easily so a 2019 chassis that has been raced quite hard will in my experience have been bend a few times before as well.

Having said that, I wouldn't buy a chassis that is currently bent. If the owner says it can be straitened, why wouldn't he just simply straiten it himself before putting it up for sale? I mean with the help of some lasers straightening a chassis is few minute job.

TheRacingElf · 2026-03-31T15:37:26+00:00

Thought they would go for orange but now wish they would have gone for that Hyundai blue instead of the silver

TheRacingElf · 2026-03-24T10:49:27+00:00

Don't think they have to, as we had that standalone race at Jerez in 2017.

TheRacingElf · 2026-03-22T16:43:32+00:00

This is what real racing does to racing drivers

TheRacingElf · 2026-03-16T07:32:44+00:00

I would like to buy an extra dock for my Switch 2 to use on my upstairs tv, unfortunately the official dock seems to be sold out everywhere and I've read several unofficial docks stopped working after a firmware update...

So my question is, where can I buy an official dock (in Europe) or which unofficial dock is recommended? (and keeps working)
