Noticed they are covering the practice sessions as well. Not that familiar with it but at this time of year I'll watch anything. Does Penske still run a team? No, Penske pulled out at the end of last season rather surprisingly, think with his ownership of the Indycar series and Indianapolis as well he was cutting back of a few things (pulled out if IMSA as well). The Superview is actually really good value, just over £35 for the full season, includes practice, qualifying and races live and on demand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't stay up till 0400 but it was being repeated on Fox506 this afternoon during half time in Saints game so couldn't stick around for the rest. Decent iptv is a wonderful thing. Formula E on also but doesn't really do it for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy boo Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 As much as I love Nascar, it infuriates me how they will throw a yellow flag for no good reason like in the Xfinity race there with a couple of laps to go and someone brushes the wall!! Some support race now from Mount Panorama has my heart racing. Due to it being one of the best race tracks in the world obviously. No way will I last till 0400... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Competition yellows absolutely ruin NASCAR and IndiCar for me. Ovals are boring enough, but knowing the first 498 laps are essentially meaningless because a yellow is going to get chucked to contrive a close finish just tops it off. Mind you, 'mercuns like NBA basketball, which is pretty much the indoor version of the same thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 There's a difference between Yellows thrown for genuine safety reasons and 'competition' yellows. It's risible how often a yellow gets thrown in the last handful of laps because the officials have suddenly spotted a tiny piece of carbon fibre on the infield that's been sat there since lap 1. I have no problem with genuine yellows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Wish JLOC would come back. The highlight of the first hour was always guessing exactly when the camera would cut to a Lambo sitting smouldering by the side of the track. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Sabine Reck/Schmitz has passed away after a lengthy battle with cancer. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/motorsport/56420308 I'm absolutely gutted. One of a very few female racers who was genuinely as quick, if not quicker than most of her male co-drivers. She served us once in her family's restaurant and was an absolute pleasure. No ego at all and happy to sit chatting away for ages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Bristol, Tennessee which is a half mile concrete oval which usually provides plenty of thrills and spills. It's like a bullring with massive grandstands all the way round. For some reason Nascar have decided to cover it with dirt as a nod to their sports roots which started out on dirt tracks, some of which are still used to this day for minor race categories. Ill be watching but not sure what to expect....probably crazier than ever. ETA...just watching Truck Series practice. When I say watching it's through what looks like a sandstorm so can't see anything. Commentators love it though...surprisingly Edited March 26, 2021 by jimmy boo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
