Found out this morning Fred is doing ANOTHER 24hr race so I wanted to compile a list of all the things he’s been up to this year:
Completed:
- Formula E rookie test (Mahindra)
- 24 hrs of Daytona online: (Mercedes AMG Esport - podium: P2)
Ongoing:
- F1 Reserve Driver: Mercedes (and technically Mclaren)
- SIM development Driver: Mercedes
- European Le Mans (LMP2, Cool Racing - 2/6 races completed, one P2 podium)
- Occasional Super Formula iracing streams
Upcoming:
- 24hr of Le Mans: (LMP2 (pro/am), Cool Racing)
- 24 hrs of Spa GT World endurance (GT3 pro cup, Mercedes AMG Team gruppeM)
———
In conclusion, Lil dude is playing musical chairs: pro mode, with all the seats he’s diving for. He’s quietly stacking his 2025 F1 seat CV with labels and showing how adaptable he is. I’m impressed and slightly intimidated with how much he’s doing

Tumblr media
Scott is known as a friendly and humble guy in the paddock who seems to get along with most drivers. He's got a playful personality. He likes to celebrate his wins with a "wombat roll", or doing a somersault in victory lane when he exits his car. While appearing in inflatable costumes and a pink "Glamping Squad" t-shirt in episodes of Bus Bros, Scotty still has fun without his partner-in-crime Josef Newgarden; he wore an inflatable Pikachu costume to a race in Australia during the 2022 IndyCar offseason, and his wife wore a matching Pikachu hoodie dress. Scotty might be the easygoing guy everyone wants to have a beer with off-track, but on track he is a fierce competitor. He and the Thirsty 3's (his #3 Penske squad) enjoy a cult following.

F1 related news and updates from the past two days
FIA announced the Bahrain testing times for all three days (10am to 7pm local time, which should be 8am to 5pm CET if I counted correctly)
Verstappen joined Team Redline in driving iRacing Daytona 24 hours and won the GTD class with the team
[This one is very brutal, please skip if you don't like car crashes] apparently a driver lost control of their car when driving near the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami and fell from the exit ramp on an overpass to the track of the gp
The Pitt movie should feature scenes from Daytona 24 Hours as well
FiA is considering an Electric Championship in Africa to promote motorsports on the continent
Komatsu (new Haas tp) admitted if he made the team from style, he would do it differently and having part of the team in the USA, part in Italy and part in the UK is far from ideal, so in long term future they are expected to make some changes to fix this and they cannot expext to be that competitive right now
He also said this year's car should suit Magnussen more than in 2023
Sainzes have been discussing Audi because Sainz sr knows "how seriously they take the project" (full quote below)
From fan's point of view: both Seb and Oscar are alive and well, Mick apparently got himself a tiktok account, Charles enjoyed some ice cream but more importantly he shared a video of himself playing a piano, so let's hope it means another single!

Racing roundup: NASCAR (Ford, too) blew it by not suspending Deegan
New Post has been published on https://grgdoorfix.com/racing-roundup-nascar-ford-too-blew-it-by-not-suspending-deegan/
Racing roundup: NASCAR (Ford, too) blew it by not suspending Deegan
Christopher Bell won the NASCAR Cup race Sunday on the road course at Daytona while the best race – and story – of the weekend came Saturday when Joe Gibbs’s grandson, Ty Gibbs, won the first Xfinity Series race he entered, which put him in some very select company indeed. But first, The Sermon.
Last winter, Kyle Larson used the N word while playing an iRacing game. He was immediately fired by Chip Ganassi Racing and suspended for the season by NASCAR. He was ordered to take sensitivity training. And that, by the way, was the proper way to handle that situation.
Over the course of the 2020 season, NASCAR showed a commitment to race relations that might not have been possible even a few years ago. It banned the Confederate flag from all properties where NASCAR races. When a noose was found hanging from the garage door of Bubba Wallace’s team at Talladega, it threw its support behind the young Black driver and the scene when Wallace pushed his car to the front of the line on pit road and was followed by every other driver, car owner and pit crew member was both inspiring and unforgettable.
To show that 2020 wasn’t a fluke, or a PR exercise, the invocation and the U.S. national anthem at Sunday’s NASCAR Cup road course race were both performed by African-Americans.
Now, this January, Hailie Deegan, a rising young woman racer, used the R word while iRacing. She wasn’t fired and although NASCAR said she was suspended, it was only while she took sensitivity…

Tumblr media
Called “The Iceman” for the way he stays calm and collected under almost any circumstances, Scott Dixon is a methodical driver, knowm to be able to extract the most fuel mileage from his car. A Six-time series Champion, he has earned 52 wins, 130 podiums and 32 poles in his long career. One of the older drivers in the field, he shows no signs of slowing down. He is as competitive as ever, an elder statesman bestowing his wisdom on his teammates.
Off track, he is said to be one of the nicest guys around, family focused but still able to find time for fun with his friends. But early in his career he wasn’t quite as straight-laced as he appears now, known for committing pranks and getting into mischief with Dario Franchitti and Tony Kanaan. Both remain close friends all these years later.
I’ve avoided mentioning wives and girlfriends for the most part in these Lore posts, but one cannot discuss Scott without mentioning his wife, Emma. Outspoken and sometimes brash, Emma has no problem calling out the series and other drivers when she sees what she perceives as an injustice being done to her husband. But she is also very friendly, taking new drivers’ wives and girlfriends under her wing. Her Instagram (especially her comments on other drivers’ posts) can be very entertaining at times.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fanfic Lore
Historically paired with Dario Franchitti. In groups with Dario Franchitti, Tony Kanaan, and Marco Andretti
His wife, Emma, is his biggest shipper (she seems to pair him with Dario Franchitti and Tony Kanaan most often) and is frequently horny right on social media about him. Because of this, she is one of the rare WAGS that show up in fanfic occasionally.

iRacing Daytona 24
Tumblr media
Some hail it as the “Home of American motorsport”. Others claim it is the “Best race on the endurance calendar”….yet it is also said that “Its an oval, with a bit of squiggly stuff in the middle to break up the monotony” either way there is usually an “ITS ALWAYS THE DP!” added on the end. However, say what you like about Daytona, it is a sure thing that the annual 24hr race on iRacing is a…

Win Mazda’s new iRacing challenge to get a test in an MX-5 race car
Tumblr media
Enlarge (credit: Mazda)
I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say it has never been easier to get into motorsport. A plethora of grassroots endurance racing series have sprung up in recent years, making wheel-to-wheel racing cheaper than it has been in decades. However, even this route isn't exactly cheap; in addition to your safety gear you'll still need to either build a car to the rules or rent a seat in one. For those without the mechanical skills, space, or budget to build their own race car, there are still other options: video games. After all, unlike most other games, a good racing game teaches you skills that do translate well to the real thing.
Arguably, it all started in 2008 with the first Nissan Playstation GT Academy, which used Gran Turismo to find new racing talent. GT Academy proved the concept, and, as racing games have improved, more and more motorsports programs have started taking the idea seriously. Perhaps the best example is McLaren's World's Fastest Gamer competition, the winner of which got a contract as the Formula 1 team's latest simulator test driver.
Mazda is the latest company to give it a go; the winner of its new Hot Lap Challenge will get a test next spring in the Global Mazda MX-5 Cup car. There are two ways to win. Starting on Friday (April 13) at the Long Beach Grand Prix in California, Mazda is holding seven "at-track" qualifying rounds, bringing two simulators running iRacing to each race for that purpose. Whoever sets the fastest overall lap across those seven weekends wins a trip to the 2019 Rolex 24 at Daytona and becomes a finalist for the race car test.

Win Mazda’s new iRacing challenge to get a test in an MX-5 race car

I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say it has never been easier to get into motorsport. A plethora of grassroots endurance racing series have sprung up in recent years, making wheel-to-wheel racing cheaper than it has been in decades. However, even this route isn't exactly cheap; in addition to your safety gear you'll still need to either build a car to the rules or rent a seat in one. For those without the mechanical skills, space, or budget to build their own race car, there are still other options: video games. After all, unlike most other games, a good racing game teaches you skills that do translate well to the real thing.
Arguably, it all started in 2008 with the first Nissan Playstation GT Academy, which used Gran Turismo to find new racing talent. GT Academy proved the concept, and, as racing games have improved, more and more motorsports programs have started taking the idea seriously. Perhaps the best example is McLaren's World's Fastest Gamer competition, the winner of which got a contract as the Formula 1 team's latest simulator test driver.
Mazda is the latest company to give it a go; the winner of its new Hot Lap Challenge will get a test next spring in the Global Mazda MX-5 Cup car. There are two ways to win. Starting on Friday (April 13) at the Long Beach Grand Prix in California, Mazda is holding seven "at-track" qualifying rounds, bringing two simulators running iRacing to each race for that purpose. Whoever sets the fastest overall lap across those seven weekends wins a trip to the 2019 Rolex 24 at Daytona and becomes a finalist for the race car test.
