Grand Prix Rejects

To answer a question from one of our owners: If you are competing in GTD, the default is using cars and engines from the same company - that's how you can get sponsorship from the company, after all. However, since there are third-party engine manufacturers and the possibility of building your own e...

NAMSA Announces 2022 Unified Schedule One of the promises of the North American Motor Sports Association (NAMSA) - formed by the merger of France and Penske interests - has already come true with the announcement of the 2022 American Racing Calendar. Because of the move to 200-mile NASCAR Saturday/...

The Google sheet has been updated with sponsor information. A manufacturer sponsor can cover a full team, whether that be one or two cars. A brand sponsor can only cover one team. Feel free to suggest your own sponsorships, especially if you have a driver who brings sponsorship. We'll now begin pick...

Jimmie Johnson in the rain was even worse than I feared. I'm sure he's having fun and he will probably do well in the 500, but I don't understand a seven-time NASCAR champ deciding to run street and road courses in IndyCar when he wasn't any good at them when he had the best equipment on the track.

Scuderia DePaolo Votes: 1. In light of the fatality of famous Pietro Bordino, should there be a maximum amount of qualifiers for any given race in the future? b) No - simply let everyone race who enters! Without traffic, there is no racing. 2. Due to the growing amount of participants in the World ...

Done.

I am interested in fielding both a GTP or GTD/eGT team, with first preference to GTP. If there are not enough entries I can run a GTD or eGT team as well. I propose for Miami-based Kronstadt Technology Team to make the jump to the new GTP format. The team, a part of the German conglomerate Kronstad...

Budgets The starting budget for a Prototype (GTP) team will be $500 per car. For Grand Touring Daytona (GTD), it will be $400 per car. For Electric Grand Touring (eGT), it will be $500 - but remember while GTP and GTD need one car per team, eGT needs one car per driver. That's two for a three-hour ...

It is time for the 2021 IMSA SportsCar Championship season! This will be the 51st IMSA season and the end of an era. The 2022 Keto Technologies SportsCar Series (KTSS) season will be sanctioned by the new North American Motor Sports Association (NAMSA), formed in 2020 by the merger of properties ow...

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Roger Penske and Jim France, two of the most powerful men in American motorsport, made a stunning announcement on Friday that will change American motorsports as it is currently known. However, their show was stolen by a special guest. France and Penske were at the Indianapolis...

We (still) have an issue with the wiki not sending out confirmation emails for new accounts, so until that is fixed I'm keeping all account requests on hold. Approving them could easily mean the temporary password you should use to log in for the first time would just vanish into cyberspace. Once w...

Sounds interesting, to me when it comes to a touring cars series the more variety the better, also I guess stock cars are the CLOSEST things to touring cars in the USA? Yeah, but that just becomes NASCAR... Jim France is 77. Knowing he can't turn the family company over to his nephew, he decides to...

Requesting a Wiki account. (Have also done so on the Wiki.)

In this timeline, I don't have to hate Eddie Irvine forever!

This looks amazing, but the record-keeping is going to be a monster. Or is there a GPR spreadsheet to handle all that?

What was the last team to die a reject?

1: Bianchi
2-9: No one deserves to be that close to Le Grand Jules.
10: The Hulk for that last tyre run.

1 - K-Maggs. Second place on debut. Outstanding.

2 - Bottas. Who says you can't overtake in F1? He had something like 25 passes in one race.

Bronze: Lotus, for going from a race-winning team to one excited because they made it to the halfway point before blowing up. They couldn't even get the Pastor on track for qualifying. Silver: Kimi Raikkonen. Kimi, the fact that the track has a Corner 10 usually means there is also a Corner 9. At so...

Noooo! Bottas was brilliant!

Neither Marussia or Lotus is going to be on the grid. Both Red Bulls are having issues on the formation laps.

No Vettel hate here - that was just an amazing drive by Ricciardo on the intermediates, plus you've got both Magnussen and Kvyat starting near the front of the grid.

And a Caterham starting on the back bumper of a Red Bull.

Daniel Ricciardo just crushed Sebastian Vettel in qualifying. He's in row 1 with Seb in 13th. Magnussen was much better than Button. This season is going to be fun.

With 60 seconds left, Vettel is over 5 seconds off the top.

OK, who had a Caterham surviving Q1?

I'm going to nominate the Associated Press news agency, for falsely reporting that Massa's injury was life-threatening. Although in intensive care, Massa is stable, and there has been no indication that his life was seriously in danger the way AP made it out to be. As such, for letting the fox into...
