The Campos team won the second race at Valencia as well and once again fortune smiled on them. Lucas di Grassi collected the win.

The GP2 sprint race once again provided more talking points than the feature race after a controversial crash between two former team mates and another twist in the championship battle between Giorgio Pantano and Bruno Senna. Read more…

The GP2 feature race at the Circuito Urbano Valencia came to a surprising end as title rivals Giorgio Pantano and Bruno Senna both ran out of fuel on the final lap.

Pantano had run away with the race from pole position and was poised to win when his car rolled to a halt on the final lap.

Bruno Senna had been running fifth and went passed his rival but his iSport car also slowed having run out of fuel. He made it across the line in ninth place - losing what would have been a valuable point for eighth plus pole position for tomorrow’s sprint race as Luca Filippi passed him. Read more…

A1 Grand Prix has taken further measures to help its less experienced and less capable teams narrow the gap to the front runners.

In the 2008-2009 season it will make the telemetry available from the car that sets the fastest lap in practice and qualifying.

But will it actually help the teams at the back of the grid get on terms with the leaders? Read more…

The TV commentators sucked their teeth and said things like “ooh, it’s a bit hard to tell what’s happened from that angle.”

What garbage. They were looking at footage of a collision between Jason Plato and Tom Onslow-Cole in this afternoon’s third British Touring Car race at Knockhill.

Plato is chasing Fabrizio Giovanardi (Onslow-Cole’s team mate) in the championship and had moved down the inside of Onslow-Cole at the hairpin. Plato appeared to have left enough room at the exit for Onslow-Cole, but the Vauxhall driver slewed into the side of Plato’s seat, tipping him straight into the barrier. Read more…

Sebastien Buemi snatched victory from Andy Soucek

Lucas di Grassi scored his first win of 2007

A moment’s misjudgement by Giorgio Pantano at the Hungaroring cost him vital points in the championship. And it handed Bruno Senna an opportunity to reduce the gap between the pair in the title race which the iSport driver did not waste.

Senna finished third behind winner Lucas di Grassi and Andreas Zuber, the pair nose-to-tail for much of the second half of the race. Read more…

The 2009 Indy Car calendar has been announced and there are three big changes.

The Nashville oval is out and two of the top ex-CART/Champ Car venues join the schedule. Both are street tracks: the first is Long Beach, the iconic CART venue once used for Formula 1, which will hold the second round of the season.

The second is the popular Toronto course, the second Canadian addition to the series after Edmonton joined this year. Here’s the calendar in full: Read more…

Scott Dixon won once again in the Indy Racing League thanks to rapid pit work by his Ganassi pit crew and a slice of fortunate with the race distance.

Dixon had a quiet race until the late stages when one of his Penske rivals was knocked into a spin and the other fell back in the pits. Read more…

The former Champ Car drivers in the Indy Racing League have enjoyed their best qualifying session of the year at Edmonton. It’s the only time the IRL regulars and the ‘transition teams’ will compete together at an ex-Champ Car venue this year.

Penske duo Ryan Brisco and Helio Castroneves locked out the front row but seven of the next nine cars were from former Champ Car teams.

However Paul Tracy failed to shine on his return to racing. He set his best time after the session had ended, leaving him 16th of the 27 starters. Full grid below. Read more…
