Good work in Super GT Honda.

Repsol Honda had a double retirement in MotoGP so it was a great weekend all around.

If Alonso wins the 500, maybe not this year but sometime we could see him and Montoya teaming for Le Mans to get the triple crown together.

Five P2 protos, all worthless. Lordy.

Kinda funny that if the courts moved quicker, they would likely have gotten 4x the price on a lot of this stuff. Even then it would still be a drop in the bucket compared to the billion dollar fine he got, but still.

It was in P1, but it finished a whole 0.110 seconds ahead of the #13 Rebellion in Practice 2.

Even the WEC homepage is being pessimistic about the Kolles' chances:

Yeah, good fun at the end there. Balance between the P2 cars seems pretty good and they've got a good spread of cars, as opposed to WEC.

Hello! I see you.


Watching the second Formula V8 3.5 round from Silverstone and drat, this field is a pretty sad sight. The series has been practically dead since Renault pulled their backing at the end of 2015, and I'm not sure why they even bother at this point.

I've made a huge mistake.
Horrendous accident in a BTCC F4 support race. The director switched to an in-car poo poo in time for the driver to slam in to a broken down car at unabated speed.

Drivers still getting medical attention.

very late to react to the rain (or just trying to push through a quick shower?) but yeah Are Kamui did something silly.

I don't think they lost a ton of time, and still half a race left for those damned Porkers to break things to happen.

There's video of the F4 crash on Youtube and gently caress it's nasty. You literally don't see the slow car until about half a second before impact. Nothing he could've done to avoid it. Apparently he's got serious leg injuries and it took 2 hours to get him out the car.
