A fantastic interview with David "Dai" Llewellin: Factory WRC driver for Audi, MG, Toyota, Nissan and 2x British Rally Champion - by longtime WRC journalist Mark James

Genuinely one of the most fascinating interviews I've heard about rallying, right up there with the ones that Nicky Grist has done recently. Dai gives a great account about what cars like the Audi quattro, Metro 6R4 and Nissan Pulsar GTiR were like to drive and compete with, as well as what the British rallying scene was like back in the day...

Another angle of Fraga's airborne crash at Fuji Rd.4

From here you can see just how close Fraga's car came to the pit wall... just glad that everyone is ok, I've never seen a car get airborne like that in modern GT.

I wonder if this incident will prompt some changes to GT500 aero regulations, like mandating something similar to DTM's HYLO rear wing, or adding more openings to the wheelarches

Old interview with Giampaolo Dallara on how his company got into designing Indycars, and the appeal of Indycar as a sport[ENG Sub]

Thought this would be interesting for those who haven't seen it before, a short interview with the man himself on how his legendary company began its foray into producing Indycar chassis during the split era.

Interview I think is from 2019-2020ish, and its in Italian, but there are English subtitles, make sure to turn them on!

This video is just part of the full interview, where Dallara also talks about his early years working with Ferrari, Fiat, Lamborghini, Lancia, designing his own cars, starting his own company, and even some views on the future of motorsports. Playlist for the full interview is on Davide Cironi's channel, I highly recommend watching if you're a fan of motorsports in general.

Dallara is one of the greatest visionaries in all of motorsports imo, I think his impact is probably just as much, if not even greater than people like Enzo Ferrari or Roger Penske. It's a shame his story isn't talked about more.

Louis Rossmann: Fake support is worse than real opposition, what I learned watching SKG California

Rossmann brings up some interesting advice on the principles of lobbyists. I'm sure people involved in SKG are probably already aware of this, but I thought the stuff in this video gives an insightful perspective for anyone who is interested in this movement.
