I would choose the minimum number of F1 laps, not because I'm cheap, but because driving the F3 car would be the more fun part of the experience. It would be far less intimidating (though you still won't touch its potential) and you would get a good number of laps to improve and feel like you're going fast. Getting in the F1 car is more for the experience of being in the cockpit, hearing the engine, and being impressed by the immense power of the engines and the brakes. If you actually tried to go fast in it, you would be utterly exhausted after two laps anyway.
100% spot on. I did the F4 program at Barber and even those were exhausting for a newb.

Nurumburg 24 starts in a couple of hours... I'll drop a link when it pops up. They are doing warmups now.
Some interesting quotes out of Max this weekend. Paraphrasing some quips
Nothing else to really accomplish in F1
All of his Sim racing he does is GT, none if F1
Grew up with his dad doing this type of racing
Has a real passion for endurance and other racing
Doesn't want to wait til he's 40 to do other things

They looked out of position at the start. Unsure if they'll get dinged for that.

Lambo lucky as shite to get puncture there and not have to go 15 miles on a flat

How competitive should the old Z4 be overall?
Was watching it in the warmup earlier and Son and I decided it was a cool one.

Oh shite, forgot the M3 wagon and all those EVO AMG cars are racing too. This is the coolest race ever.
Posted on 5/16/26 at 8:17 am to s14suspense
Probably not all that competitive. They're in SP9 AM, which doesn't have a lot of cars in that class, but they'll be towards the back of it.
Posted on 5/16/26 at 8:22 am to BottomlandBrew
Oh ok. I just heard SP9 = GT3 top class basically right. Is AM amateur? Little bit under top class?
Posted on 5/16/26 at 8:25 am to s14suspense
It's basically the third tier of the GT3 class. There's a pro, pro-am, and am. Looks like there are only six cars in the SP9-AM class.
Live timing, for anyone interested.

The Z4 is running almost a minute down per lap compared to the next closest GT3-AM, and more than 2 minutes down to the top GT3s.
This race usually has a handful of old fan-favorite cars running. Think like a Garage 56 at Le Mans, only instead of experimental, it's weird/old.

Did anyone see the onboards and teaser of the Madrid circuit? Halfway excited about a new track. Nice banked turns integrated.

That link just quit working.

Only stream I can find on YouTube is the Pitlane stream

I’m watching a Mustang GT3 #67 in car stream now. I think I heard them say in the US it streams exclusively on Racer.com’s paywalled site.
