Derani and team-mate Felipe Nasr have won three of the past four IMSA races in their #31 AXR Cadillac, following their first win of the year at Watkins Glen with further triumphs at Road America and in the most recent round at Long Beach. That has brought the Brazilian pair to within 19 points of WTR
It may have been a far cry from the strategic thriller of Austin or the late-rain chaos in Russia, but the Mexico City Grand Prix was nevertheless another chapter in the story of this year’s championship fight. Max Verstappen took another step towards his first F1 crown with a crushing win against Lewis Hamilton, delivering
Alongside the full-time #79 entry raced by Cooper MacNeil, Matt Campbell and/or Mathieu Jaminet – the trio will be reunited this weekend – WeatherTech/Proton Competition will enter the #97 driven by Porsche’s Kevin Estre, Michael Christensen, and Frederic Makowiecki. “Together with Porsche we wanted to try and give the IMSA GTLM class a proper send-off,”
The Monegasque and his team-mate were locked in a tight fight with AlphaTauri’s Pierre Gasly throughout the Mexico City race as they battled for fourth spot.

Four-time NASCAR Cup champion Jeff Gordon says that 2021 series winner Kyle Larson has done “amazing things” in his first season with Hendrick Motorsports.

Miller was overtaken by the charging LCR Honda of Marquez on lap 12 of 23 in Sunday’s red-flagged Algarve race, but finally found a way through again on lap 21 when Marquez ran wide. The Ducati rider suffered several moments in the latter stages when he reclaimed third from Marquez, with the Spaniard right on
The Joe Gibbs Racing driver, who finished second in 2018 with Furniture Row Racing and again in 2019 with JGR, led for 72 laps on Sunday and hit the front in stage three after undercutting his title rivals at what should have been the final stop of the race and cycling him back to the
Having won out in the ‘regular season’, Hendrick Motorsports’ Larson continued his impressive form throughout the playoffs, and capped off an excellent season with a strong defensive drive from Martin Truex Jr, who was looking to claim his second Cup Series title. Larson led the most laps at Phoenix, but had fallen out of lead
Polesitter Bottas and Hamilton had locked out the front row for Mercedes, with the team hoping to use that opportunity to exert control on the Mexico City race early on.

Red Bull Formula 1 team-mate Max Verstappen took a dominant victory at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, leaving Perez to challenge Mercedes rival Hamilton for second place.

Foggia came into the Algarve race 21 points down on long-time championship leader Pedro Acosta and had spent much of the Portugal Moto3 race in the lead. Acosta overtook Foggia on the last lap into Turn 3, which would have been enough to secure the Ajo KTM rider the championship if Foggia couldn’t find a
After the first qualifying segment at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez had been suspended following Lance Stroll’s heavy crash at the Peraltada midway through Q1, the remaining cars began to queue at the end of the pitlane when the near half-hour stoppage was about to end.

Red Bull had been in a commanding position ahead of qualifying at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez after topping FP2 – and completing favourable long run pace compared to Mercedes in that session – and leading FP3 by over 0.6 seconds with Sergio Perez.

Sebastien Buemi, Kazuki Nakajima and Brendon Hartley head the field in the #8 GR010 Hybrid, having been let through by the sister #7 car driven by Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Jose Maria Lopez at the beginning of the second hour.

China was the first race to fall foul of the coronavirus pandemic back in 2020, and it failed to make it back on to either last year’s or this year’s schedule.

The F1 world championship leader produced a 1m17.301s to top FP2 by an impressive 0.424s from Valtteri Bottas, who had been fastest in the first practice session, with Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton slotting into third place. That meant home hero Sergio Perez had to settle for fourth place in FP2, but did recover from a
Truex has won four races this season – second-most among the title contenders – and won the spring race at Phoenix Raceway, the venue of Sunday’s title race. Yet Truex seems to have flown under the radar because three of his victories came early in the season. While he had to fight and claw for
Suzuki’s Joan Mir set the early pace in FP2 with a 1m41.495s, with LCR’s Takaaki Nakagami edging ahead of him with a 1m40.985s just over six minutes into the session.

Following Ferrari’s GTE Pro victory at the Le Mans 24 Hours in August, the boost pressure of the 488 GTE Evo was lowered significantly in Bahrain last weekend, robbing the car of 25bhp. This change was made outside of the auto BoP system that has been in place in the WEC for several years, with
Larson, 28, was indefinitely suspended from NASCAR and fired from Chip Ganassi Racing in March 2020 for using a racial slur over the radio during a public iRacing event.
