What Would Your Ideal Motorsport Coverage Look Like?
What Would Your Ideal Motorsport Coverage Look Like?-October 2024

Image for article titled What Would Your Ideal Motorsport Coverage Look Like?

If you’re anything like me, you have frequently grumbled about the absolute state of motorsport coverage lately. Sometimes it’s just boring. Sometimes it just feels too out of date. Sometimes I’m sitting here asking myself, “how is that news?” So, while I have some neat ideas on how we’re going to revamp the way we cover racing at Jalopnik, I want to put the idea out to the readers: what do you want to see?

Do you want more interviews? More hot takes? Less hot takes? The occasional foray into the wildest moments of the past? Are you as frustrated about the lack of fan experience in racing coverage as I am? What series have we been neglecting? Where should we go? What do you, the readers, want to read?

One of my biggest complaints about racing coverage is that it can just seem so disconnected from the actual fans who are watching. Even the series themselves seem to make drastic changes based on literally no fan input at all (like, did anyone ask for the dumb tire graphics on the F1 broadcasts, because they do not provide any accurate or interesting information). I’m still young, I am still Hip With the Kids and like to think I know what will interest people, but I also can’t speak for everyone.

Now's your time to share. Dream big! Go wild! I'm here to make all those outrageous ideas come true.

Volvo Once Absolutely Dominated Rallycross
Volvo might be the most sweet, staid, unassuming car company in existence. Little did I know that they used to absolutely dominate the completely manic door-to-door smashing and bashing world of European Rallycross. Above is the diminutive Volvo 343. It looked like just about any other weedy little rear-drive hatchback...

New Year's Resolutions For These Drivers: Suck Less, Win More
Some years just don’t go as expected, in good ways and bad. But thankfully for professional racing drivers, each year brings with it a points reset and a new chance at the championship title—or to finish higher than 30th. Either way. Some drivers couldn’t stop finishing second and some couldn’t...
