Isn't 'stock car' terribly inaccurate at this point, too?

I've actually had a growing interest in Nascar lately. Boring to watch if you don't know what you're looking at, but after doing a bunch of oval on iRacing the last few weeks and beginning to understand all the nuances of oval racing I'm really enjoying it

If there's an F1 Driver that can step into Nascar and succeed, it's Kimi. You need to be ruthless and surgical and he's the best at that.

Villeneuve was just ruthless and aggressive in his lil stint.

The new engine regs look promising. Really wonder what they will sound like.

I agree DoubleK, could be a focused return to the ear bleeding V10 spectacle with the removal of the MGU-H and a new V6. They beefed the MGU-K to nearly 469HP...these cars are going to be beastly to drive. Need a delicate right foot.

Also saw that for 2024 onwards, no tire blankets!! That makes me happy. Now fix the red flag rules allowing car changes/repairs and I'll be a happy man.

Unfortunately that ship has sailed. Not only is anything other than V6s not gonna happen but they aren’t even gonna make the V6s louder. From what I recall, as long as they use low fuel flow V6s and have limited revs, they’ll never get louder.

Kimi ran good. Was as high as 9th on strategy after one of the stage breaks.

Got wrecked after Ross Chastain ran out of talent (again).

Gotta wonder what Kimi thought of the complete lack of track limits.
