Anything to drown out the flood of people going "OMG THE DOCTOR THE DOCTOR" when Valentino Rossi shows up.

I was thinking more along the lines of seeing Max's ability to dodge kangaroos, but that's a pretty good reason for Max to show up at Bathurst too.

Id love to see Max do the Barthurst as it's probably one of the best racing events in the world for those who truly love racing with rarely ever being dull for an endurance race. Much how I believe all true racers should at least do LeMan, The Indy 500, id add Bathurst in those pivotal races.

Verstappen going for the Triple Crown sort of a deal? Or just going for a WEC push in general?

Max is on record saying he doesn't like the speed indycar races at for Ovals. Despite all the nascar=turn left jokes people love to make, european drivers tend to be remarkably skiddish about proving just how easy they think it is. He's definitely gonna try and go for Le Mans as soon as possible.

I would love to see Max go for the Triple Crown. I still haven't totally given up on seeing Fernando try for it either

Is there even an overlap between four-wheel racing drivers and people who joke about nascar?

Nope, actual race drivers tend to respect all forms of racing. You'll never hear Max or Alonso hating on oval racers.

"Race fans" hating on NASCAR is just the typical anti-American Euro smugness and most of them are DTS-like casuals anyways.
 
Nascar is awesome. I went through a phase a year or two ago of binge-watching videos mainly from about a decade ago about Kyle and Kurt Busch. It was great because Nascar seemed to encourage drivers to be more open and confrontational. It was so much fun.

Anyways I guess it ended when the other kyle retard went and dropped nigger on stream. Now whenever i watch nascar stuff it just looks so bland and boring in comparison.

slapshoes on youtube is a great channel also https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuyD0SAhBfxwHLvbOF3RFCg

DTS ill admit introduced me to F1 but quickly I outgrew it as it doesn't go into the nuances of a race team and what it's really like to be a racer. The documentaries of old that are raw, crude, and truthful like the old Jordan ones really wish they were the primary style.

I don't know, it seems kind of woke to me. They just suspended a driver for doing the same "gay voice" you and your friends have done a billion times. Bubba Wallace was a huge nigger and the noose incident made me turn my nose up at oval racing because NASCAR media dragged Southerners as movie villain racists. They made Danica Patrick a thing. I assumed they abandoned their fanbase for "the modern fandom" that probably don't watch races or buy merchandise/tickets.
 
Biggest f1 lolcow still malding and threatening not to watch (he will)

Mercedes are being investigated for a technical infringement after Ferrari raised the issue with the FIA.

The active aero on the front and rear wings must move from open to closed in under 0.4 seconds. footage from China shows both cars exceeding that with times of upto 0.8 seconds recorded.

Makes sense Ferrari would call it out. I think they're struggling with the macarena wing for this exact same reason.

New reports say it’s McLaren not Ferrari

I’m all here for McLaren going independent and creating their own engine in 2031
