The WGP will truly crown the world’s fastest car.” Basically trying to show how equal and fair everything will be. Then immediately throw it away for the Porto Corsa race by saying Francesco grew up racing on this track. Like why even say that? Or why even say the other if you wanted to say that?

      @@harrisonkelly-kj7kf While he does look nearly similar to one, Rip is a 2005 Formula 6000 Racer which is an in-house design. Similar to Lightning McQueen, Jackson Storm or Mater, he is not based on one particular model, but rather draws inspiration from more than one car.
      The engine types of the racers are normally related to the racing cars from the discipline they're based off of. Rip's engine is a 3.5-liter DOHC V8 with 650 hp, an engine commonly seen in IndyCars from 2003 to 2011. From an older concept design of the racers, he was supposed to look like an Indy which means that while he has influence from cars like the Hulme F1 and Caparo T1, his actual basis is a late 2000's IndyCar, specifically a Dallara IR-05. This would be true because the racers are meant to represent popular racing series and IndyCar is one of many. The model year of the characters, specifically the WGP Racers, also have some connection to the car they're based on.
      For example Raoul is a 2006 Global Rally Car Racer, a Pixar in-house design based on the Citroen C4 WRC. The year 2006 was when the Citroen C4 WRC was introduced at some Paris Motor Show.
      Lewis Hamilton is a 2009 Grand Touring Sports Special GBG, an in-house design based on a special prototype model of the McLaren MP4 12C. 2009 was the year that this car was first unveiled and a special prototype model was made available from 2009 to 2010.
      Shu Todoroki is a 2006 Le Motor Prototype J8 which is based on Peugeot 908 HDi FAP. 2006 was when Peugeot 908 HDi FAP was first introduced.
      Carla Veloso is a 2009 Le Motor Prototype B12, an in-house design based on the Drayson Lola B09/60 Judd. 2009 was the year this car first came out. The B12 name she gets is from the Lola Drayson B12/69 EV, an electric racecar based on the B09/60 Judd.

    I have a theory on Cars over that "Mazda..." (who currently appears to be a Nissan Fairlady)
    ...that appears that cars could change their bodies. For example, one may appear like the common daily hatchbacks you see on the street during weekdays, but on weekends, they switch to being a pretty sporty coupe. Another example is that as a racer retires, they change their body from a race car to a normal road car. Sorry if I can't explain pretty well.

    Shu's coach isn't a Mazda... it's a Datsun/Nissan [Fairlady 240-280]Z! (Prod:1970-1978) I'm just surprised it's not blue one...! ;)

      Shu Todoroki's official biography calls his coach a Mazda. Why Pixar write this, I don't know. However, you are right about the car model. Kind of left a comment about Shu's and Carla's real life cars.

    I have to pick about Franchesco’s 0-60 time being only 2.5 seconds. It actually takes a long time for F1 cars to get up to speed. To the point where a human could outrun one for the first 10 metres. That’s why all F1 races are from rolling starts instead of at a starting line.

      Bro… all f1 races have standing starts. 0-100 kph in 2.5 and 0-200kph in 5.
      They only do rolling starts when there is a safety car.
      F1 cars are literally the fastest ground vehicles on earth.
      There is no car that can match them.
      The amount of downforce they create is huge.
