RedBull to race at LeMans and WEC?


2021 is set to witness one of the biggest rule changes in F1. The FIA has planned a new breed of futuristic cars and plenty of "behind the scene" changes. The aim of this larger than life change is to make the sport fairer and more competitive. Instead of quick fixes, this time the changes will be at the grassroot level in terms of a more equal pay structure for teams to prevent team size and money from being the decisive factor in success.  However, if a cost cap like this one is introduced, a lot of bigger teams might protest since most of their staff would have to be laid off.

RedBull has said that if such a situation does arise then the extra staff would be put to work on other projects. With the WEC also making a grand rule change in 2020 with its hypercar-based LMP1 replacement category, the idea is that the team could start a program based on the Aston Martin Valkyrie hypercar that Red Bull technologies played a big part in designing.

The cheaper f1 car is still a concept since Liberty media and the FIA are pushing in favour of sticking to what engines and cars F1 currently has. For Redbull hasn’t been in great form since the start of the hybrid era, an opportunity like this might have given RedBull the boost they needed.

F1 Friendships/Bromances

In the title i used the word 'Bromance', if you don't know what bromance means well to put it simply it friendship between men . It's not hard to tell that it's the combination of two words 'brother' and 'romance'.  There are bromances in everywhere and F1 is not an exception.They maybe rivals while on track but off track it's a little different.  1.Fernando Alonso/Mark Webber  Mark webber might have retired form Formula one but that doesn't mean that his friendship with fellow driver Mark webber would halt. They share a common love for cycling and are often seen together in the paddock ,F1 or Le Mans.    P.S their "shipped name is webbando"             2.Sebastian Vettel/Kimi Raikkonen   Now teammates these two have been friends ever since Vettel's entry into F1 in 2007.

What Happened to Scuderia Ferrari in 2020

It’s no secret that the start of Ferrari’s 2020 F1 season has been disastrous. The team is seriously lacking pace and can barely match Racing Point—let alone Mercedes or Red Bull. Ferrari has traditionally been the main challenger or the No. 2 team during the Mercedes-dominated hybrid era. However, the lingering question is: why hasn’t Ferrari been able to consistently challenge the likes of Mercedes and Red Bull in recent years? Despite having multiple world champions like Fernando Alonso, Kimi Räikkönen, and Sebastian Vettel in their lineup, the team has failed to return to its former glory. Ferrari’s main issues seem to stem from its tendency to favor one driver over the other and its poor internal communication. They continue to make mistakes that shouldn't happen at this level—rookie-level errors. A prime example is Canada 2019, where Ferrari allegedly failed to inform Charles Leclerc about his teammate's five-second penalty. And let’s not even start on their questionabl...
