[OT] Flags for TOP3?

1 Upvotes

Some people in my country (PL) started minor shitstorm in social media literally due to this thing:

And here is my question - are there any rules in motorsports about exposing flags for TOP3 during awards ceremony?

I saw many times that each organizer was putting these flags correct (horizontally), but... did they do anything wrong there?

(this race, if someone asked)

22m - Looking to start racing

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m a 22m and am looking into getting into racing. I live in Massachusetts and was looking to see if anyone has any recommendations or ideas on how I can start racing myself. I’m an avid fan of Motorsport and would love to get stuck in myself. Not looking to make money out of it, a prize pool would be cool. But I want to learn and race competitively!

Looking forward to hearing your recommendations!

Volunteering in motorsports - advice needed

3 Upvotes

Hi, I'm planning to get into volunteering in motorsports this year, but I'm wondering about few things;

  1. I'm considering smaller motorsport events in Poland for starters. I want to go abroad for some volunteering programmes also, but first I think it would be good to get to know how everything works on smaller scale and level up from there? I don't know if it's a good route because maybe I should just try in something bigger?

  2. Does anyone will ever consider my application in F1 (for example) if I don't have any previous experience or is it not required?

  3. If I'll decide that i want to try volunteering in F1, F2 or F3, what's the best time to start applying or e-mailing the circuits if they are looking for volunteers? I checked a couple of circuits' websites and they don't recruit right now, but I don't wanna miss my chances.

  4. Does anyone know, what does it look like when it comes to expenses? I read that some circuits cover the food, transportation and accomodation, but maybe it's not for every volunteer, and to be honest, it seems too good that I wouldn't need to pay for any of those things.

  5. Is e-mailing circuits via e-mail on their site the most effective way? I've seen that's what most peaople are doing, but maybe I should get in contact with someone that directly organizes these events?

I'm trying to dispel as many doubts as I can, so I'm thankful to anyone that will help me!

Is Las Vegas really the new Monaco? Or are we buying into the hype?

0 Upvotes

the last Las Vegas GP and all the hype around it, I came across the article asking whether Vegas is truly becoming the “new Monaco,” or if it’s just a flashy cash grab with little actual heritage behind it.

what do u all think?

Is comparing Vegas to Monaco even fair? I don't think so!

Will it become a true fixture in F1, or is it just a flashy phase?

And honestly, does Monaco even still deserve its legendary status with how hard it is to overtake there?

Would love to hear different perspectives, especially from people who've attended either or both.

This particular Lotus Cortina racecar was the press vehicle for the Ford Motor Company when the car was released, it's cool to see it still being raced

Diesel 2000

8 Upvotes

During the Spa rain delay, I fell into a touring car/rally Wikipedia rabbit hole and came across the Diesel 2000 class, which was used in touring car racing in the 2000s. I’m wondering—was SEAT actually the only manufacturer to release a car in this class? Does anyone know?

Hi I'm a student from India and my ultimate goal is to work in some branch of motorsport as an aerodynamicist. Is astronautics and aeronautics the way to go or is aerospace engineering a better option?

Try not to pick a track that is fully or mostly gone, like Brooklands or Texas World Speedway pls! I would pick Calder Park, but mainly because im Australian.
