Welcome to Tuesday\u2019s edition of the RaceFans round-up.<\/p>\n
Is Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali\u2019s strategy alienating long-term viewers of the sport? DB-C90 makes a compelling case:<\/p>\n I\u2019m one of those.<\/p>\n It started with me abandoning the sprint abomination weekends and has now morphed into not watching or attending any at all.<\/p>\n My only connection with F1 this year was keeping a regular eye on this site and Oscar Piastri news (I\u2019m an Aussie).<\/p>\n I\u2019m not into \u2018highlights\u2019 just like I\u2019m not into T20 cricket, (but I\u2019ll watch a test match) \u2013 short term gratification does nothing for me.<\/p>\n Over the years I watched a heap of corporate entities burn bright by being \u2018creative\u2019 to get new, temporary customers only to blow up their regular customer base and ultimately crash and burn. I can see this happening with F1. Social media and links<\/p>\n Ferrari F1 2026, quando sara presentata. Vasseur su Hamilton: ‘Con lui ho sbagliato alcune cose’. E Adami e in dubbio (Corriere della Serra – Italian)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘Will Riccardo Adami still be his race engineer? Vasseur replies: ‘We are evaluating all the options.’ This applies both to the car and to the people.’<\/p>\n Why F1 fans around the world fell in love with Silverstone (Car)<\/a><\/p>\n Silverstone CEO Stuart Pringle: ‘We are now dealing with a legacy of 40 years of underinvestment in the structure of Silverstone. The good news is the business is now consistently profitable. The amazing thing about the BRDC is it chooses to operate on a not-for-profit basis, and it puts almost all of what is earned back into the infrastructure for the good of all motor sport, including the grass roots and not just F1.”<\/p>\n IndyCar 2028: The new engine formula, explained (Racer)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘If output targets of 800hp with the pistons and 100hp with the batteries are hit, the 2028 powertrain will combine to put 900hp to the ground, an improvement of approximately 100hp over 2025’s hybrid package, with headroom for that overall number to grow towards 950hp or more as IndyCar ventures into the 2030s.’<\/p>\n FIA (and) ACO open tender for Hypercar tyre supplier from 2030 (Sportscar 365)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘Michelin, which recently signed a contract extension with IMSA to be the \u2018Official Tyre\u2019 of the WeatherTech Championship through 2035, also currently serves as the WEC Hypercar tyre partner, in a deal that expires at the end of the 2029 season.’<\/p>\n Who was fastest in FIA Formula 3 2025? (Formula Scout)<\/a><\/p>\n ”With the new car, where there was a big question mark for everyone on where are you going to start,’ reflected Camara, one of the field\u2019s rookies. ‘Let\u2019s say that we got the right information (from testing) then we knew already the direction to go.”<\/p>\n RaceFans always endeavours to credit original sources.
