The Motor Racing Saga and Everything You Need To Know

If you are considering watching automobile racing and have no idea where to start, here is a guide. This article will give you a brief tour of what car racing and air racing are, the major car racing events of the world, and the different types you should keep track of.

 

Car Racing 

 

For any automobile company, Car Races are an integral part of their business. Big companies like Mercedes, Ferrari, and BMW spend money on drivers and cars. There are various types of car racing that the companies are involved in. Some of them are as follows:

 

1.   Open-Wheel 


This is a type of racing where most investments are made both on the driver and the car. Under the open-wheel car, racing comes some of the biggest races in the world. Formula 1 and Formula E are all part of open-wheel racing. In this type of racing, the cars have a single-driver cockpit, exposed wheels, and a mid-engine layout. The cars on the track are worth millions of o dollars.


2.   Sports Car


Second, to Open Wheel, sports car racing is one of the iconic races where most companies roll their cars. Any big company you have your eyes on, like Lamborghini, Nissan, Ferrari, or Porsche, are all present in this type of racing. 


3.   Touring Car


This type of racing is most prevalent in Germany, the UK, Austria, and a few other parts of Europe. There is very little differentiation between the cars; hence, the drivers play an essential role in this type of race. 

 

Air Racing

 

Coming Air racing is a type of motorsport that, as the name suggests, involves airplanes. The most famous motorsport is Formula one Air Racing, which is famous in the USA, and there are also the Reno Race and the Great Red Bull Air Race.


All these Air Racing events are popular among the crowd, and they get a lot of cheer. However, like car racing, there’s not a lot of craze for air racing, and the audience of air racing is niche. 

 

Air racing involves actual pilots, and it is also an adventure sport; however, the intensity of air race is much less than that of car racing.

 

Conclusion

 

We have tried to give a detailed description of the car and air racing. Every automobile company has invested a considerable amount in these races in recent years, and their pride is directly tagged with these events. The drivers have become the brand ambassador and the face of the company, and failing to perform affects their business significantly. Therefore it is not just a sport; it sometimes turns into a war for survival.
