July 2023 Motorsports Highlights

July was packed with fast‑talk and hot topics at Motorsports Academy UK. We broke down the big questions fans keep asking, from the Olympics to endurance drives, and gave our take on the sport that draws the biggest crowds. If you love racing, you’ll find something useful here.

Why Isn't F1 an Olympic Sport?

First up, we tackled the puzzling idea of Formula 1 joining the Olympic Games. The short answer: it just doesn’t fit the Olympic model. F1 is driven by manufacturers, not individual athletes, and the cost of building a full‑scale Grand Prix circuit would blow the Olympic budget. Plus, the Olympics celebrate human physical performance, while F1’s edge comes from high‑tech cars and engineering. So, while the idea sounds exciting, the reality keeps F1 in its own pit lane.

Can a Car Be Driven for 24 Hours?

Next, we asked whether a car could keep going for a full day. Technically, yes—if the vehicle is in good shape, the driver takes regular breaks, and the road conditions are safe. But pushing a car nonstop stresses the engine, brakes, and tires, and driver fatigue becomes a serious safety issue. Our advice? Plan rest stops, keep an eye on fuel and fluid levels, and never sacrifice alertness for a record attempt.

What Is the Most Popular Type of Auto Racing?

When it comes to sheer popularity, Formula 1 still wears the crown. Fans love the blend of speed, strategy, and glamorous locations. The sport’s global reach, big‑budget teams, and star drivers create a magnetic pull that other series can’t match. That doesn’t mean other disciplines are irrelevant—NASCAR, MotoGP, and rallying each have dedicated followings—but F1 remains the headline act for most casual and hardcore fans alike.

Hollywood’s Most Foolish Star – A Controversial Pick

We also stepped outside the track to talk about celebrity culture. A recent post sparked debate over which Hollywood star might be the “most idiotic.” The piece wasn’t about personal attacks; it looked at public mishaps, careless comments, and off‑screen blunders that shape public perception. It’s a reminder that fame brings scrutiny, and actions—good or bad—travel fast on social media.

All together, July gave us a mix of racing theory, practical driving advice, and a glimpse into how pop culture intersects with the world of speed. Whether you’re curious about Olympic chances, planning an endurance road trip, or just want to know why F1 rules the fan polls, we’ve covered the angles that matter to you.

Stay tuned for August’s lineup—more race analysis, driver interviews, and behind‑the‑scenes looks at the motorsport world. Got a question you want us to answer? Drop a comment and we’ll tackle it in a future post.

Why isn't F1 an Olympic sport?
Alright, folks, let's dive into a question that's been doing laps in my mind - why isn't Formula 1 an Olympic sport? Well, it's a pole position question, alright! First off, F1 is a manufacturer-dominated sport, which is a bit of a tricky gear shift for the Olympics, which typically revolve around individual athletes. Second, the infrastructure required for F1, with all its high-octane needs, is so vast and specific that it would drive the Olympic budget into overdrive! And lastly, adding F1 to the Olympic lineup would be like trying to fit a square tyre onto a round rim - the traditional Olympic sports are more about human physical prowess, not about who's got the fastest car. So, even though we all love a good race, it looks like F1 is stuck in the pit lane when it comes to the Olympics!

Can a car be driven for 24 hours?
In theory, yes, a car can be driven for 24 hours straight, but it's not exactly a walk in the park. The ability to do this depends largely on the vehicle's condition, driver endurance and road conditions. However, prolonged driving can cause significant wear and tear on your vehicle and is generally not recommended. Moreover, it's crucial to consider safety aspects as driving for such a long period can lead to fatigue and compromised attention. So, while it's possible, it's essential to take regular breaks to rest, refuel and maintain safety.
