Just because I drive a Subaru it doesn't make me gay (I am gay, but that's beside the point). ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ I like to talk about two- and four-wheel racing, sim racing, music, vexillology, planes and just want to enjoy being on the internet!

I think NASCAR's dam of legitimacy has been broken and there really has to be a major overhaul for next season. What doesn't need an overhaul is Zack's YouTube thumbnails, he absolutely cooked with this one ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Finally got around to watching this - 2015 MotoGP really was like 2021 Formula One. Two absolute titans of the sport kicking each other around ...

Thank you so much, your comment has actually made my day!! ๐Ÿซถ

The new job has been a pretty brutal learning curve, but at least I'm comforted by the fact Connor Zilisch won the Xfinity Series champi.... ummmmmmm ๐Ÿ˜‚

Life's been pretty big lately for me - new job, new relationship, lots of different feelings - but the most overwhelming feeling I have is one of relief that Corey Heim actually won the Truck Series championship yesterday

like from 5:52 to 9:20 of the video is just them going to war with each other at Silverstone 2019, absolute pure cinema ๐Ÿ”ฅ

oh wow I actually forgot how many great battles Charles and Max have had over the years, you can tell the respect that they have for each other in how they race one another

a Denny Hamlin championship win would be a sport-ender, so of course he'll lead 300 laps at Phoenix and still lose to NASCAR 25 cover star William Byron ๐Ÿ˜‚.

loved the stats you two sprinkled in throughout the ep, thank you kings ๐Ÿ‘‘

I think the poetry of Dennis winning after everything that has happened would be fitting of this year, and would be a big middle finger to NASCAR. If it's not him, I'm fully on the JGR train and want to see Briscoe reach the top!

It would totally cook. A short bullring of a street circuit where using the bumper is advised? Hell yeah, let's finally get that long-awaited replacement for Champ Car! (we won't mention A1 Grand Prix that was announced but never raced there ๐Ÿ˜‚)

I love aggressive racing car drivers. Brodie Kostecki doesn't give a single fuck and is a joy to watch

I tend to agree tbh. WRC cars are limited to quite a low top speed compared to what the Nordschleife is used to, and I'm sure there's other tarmac roads they could use instead that would highlight the true abilities of the talented drivers and cool cars

At least Adelaide isn't a winner-takes-all scenario like Phoenix, the most consistent overall driver will still probably claim the title. That's what makes the potential of NASCAR playoff changes for next year a bit exciting!

I will admit I was being a little bit silly with my comment ๐Ÿ˜‚. But I still find it easier to understand than the NASCAR points system - someone finishes sixth and earns more points than a race winner isn't the greatest invention imho ๐Ÿ˜…

These Supercars are super reliable, so it's bizarre to see Ryan Wood and WAU have two mechanical failures in consecutive races, once running P2 at Bathurst and now while leading at Surfer's. Now that sucks.

No one actually knows how they work, it's a mystery that will stand the test of time ๐Ÿ˜‚

Not me crying watching Supercars' tribute video to Garry Rogers, what an absolute legend of Australian motorsport ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

Ohhhh damn, Kostecki's out of today's race? That sucks, but that was a very hard hit. That makes tomorrow a must-win to advance to the next round.

Brodie Kostecki at Surfers Paradise ๐Ÿค Ryan Blaney at Martinsville - both need walk-off wins to advance ๐Ÿ˜‚

We got a track blocker in Carrera Cup Australia! That's a whole lotta destroyed metal right there ๐Ÿฅด

I'm fucked if I know what's going on with Bagnaia now. Pole position at Sepang, having just gone two seconds a lap slower than everyone else each time he got on the bike at Mandalika and Phillip Island. I'm so confused haha

I say that, and it's now a Ducati 1-2-3 in qualifying lmao

Does anybody actually know anymore what Ducati Pecco Bagnaia is actually riding? Is it a GP25? Is it a modified GP24? Is it a GP25 version 6.0? This ongoing saga of the factory Ducati team not scoring any points in the last two weekends is such a fascinating storyline

I can't wait for Mark Webber to stamp his authority on the 2010 championship, surely nothing will happen in the race that decreases his chances of becoming champion ...

The 12 Hour field has been dominated by Audi, Porsche and Mercedes in recent years, I think because they've been the most accessible GT3 racecars in Australia? So seeing a Corvette a Mt Panorama is gonna be incredible, and yes I will thank Jess Dane for this ๐Ÿ˜‚

I can't believe it's been 14 years since Marco Simoncelli died at Sepang. And iirc, it was one week after Dan Wheldon passed away at Las Vegas. I remember that period of time so vividly, losing two larger-than-life characters that could not, and have not, ever been replaced. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

Verstappen and Red Bull have so much momentum now it's crazy. And with McLaren fumbling and bumbling and trying their best to lose this previously unloseable championship, it's gonna be an interesting run to the finish.

Also, yay for F1 chat on the GRP! ๐ŸŽ๏ธ
