    Time for the Champagne 2.0: An F1 Timeline

    True, I'm considering doing that. At the very least, I've noted it down for use in any possible future edits that'll come down the line once I've got the 1975 F1 season complete. And haha, that is also true. It wouldn't be F1 if they didn't mess things up every now and then (*cough* Abu Dhabi...

    Time for the Champagne 2.0: An F1 Timeline

    Thank you, I appreciate the source! I've been relying on online sources like MotorSport magazine and other databases, so it's very cool to read something from a text source. I do agree that the difference seems to be the flag; that being said, I am still of the opinion that what I've written for...

    Time for the Champagne 2.0: An F1 Timeline

    That is true and a good point! That said, from what I've read online, it was only from the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix onwards that a red-flagged race that didn't restart was reset to two laps before the red flag. Even then, there are irregularities to that, as seen with the 1991 Australian Grand...

    Threadmarks: Interlude — Points of Divergence (Chapters I to III)

    Hi everyone, I realize that not including the PoDs in the updates so far means that it may not be easy to understand to keep up with what's different between OTL and this story. Moving forward, each update will include information at the very end that explains some of the changes, but for the...

    Oh, agreed. Arguably, it shouldn't have even run in 1975 because of concerns with safety that existed even IRL, but hey, we'll see how things go with the track in this story

    True! I suppose you'll have to wait and see what's been planned for his (and others) careers 😉

    Thank you! Yes, the plan is to keep him alive; seeing his friend not only alive but also enjoying himself will be one of the reasons why Roger decided to stick around in F1.

    I’m glad to hear that. I really do hope that I can do some of the ideas that I have justice. And for sure, I’d appreciate that! While I know more about IndyCar and its history now than when I started the first version of this story 4 years ago, I may just ask you (and others who chime in) for...

    Threadmarks: II. The Heavens Open Up

    Author's Note: So, I'm actually going to be away from home for the next week or so, so I won't really be able to work on this story as much. With that in mind, I figured that it would be a good idea to post the next part of the story now. The next update after this one should come around next...

    Hopefully, I'll be able to actually get to that point (I've already planned out for up to around 1980, looking to go further), but in the meantime, thank you for joining in on the ride!

    Also, side note, but I feel like I'll finally be able to, you know, write an actual TL/story (my F1 timeline about Team Penske) without abandoning it for once!
