heywoodu 13,502 Posted December 15, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 15, 2018 The 2018-19 season is starting EVERYTHING is different: after four seasons we have the generation 2 car, meaning there's no more car changes in the middle of the race. The season starts in Ad Diriyah today (next to Riyadh), where there's three days of rain per year.....of course one of which is today Qualifying is starting now after being postponed due to rain, this is gonna be interesting. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Monzanator 3,569 Posted December 15, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 15, 2018 The Mario Kart rules will probably be shit. No series can handle the lack of overtaking but FE makes it even more difficult given all the street circuits. Races will be 45 mins + 1 lap. That's borderline trash if you want to upstage F1 as the best series on the world. That's a glorified sprint but hey, old man Massa won't complain. He finally has a chance to speak as the 'Alpha' driver which wasn't the case in F1 Besides, F1 goes all sensitive with removing the grid girls (but not the sponsors' models) and FE kicks off in Saudi Arabia, the most human-friendly country in the world!

"Sorry, you're a woman so you can not do this job", F1 went back like 60 years with that.

It is indeed closer than F1, generally speaking. Most races are way closer and there's often more than only six realistic podium contenders.

Technically all 22 drivers should be able to win these races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is what Massa said.
