Once again
last weekend saw plenty of action in the Grand Prix, Hamilton taking the spoils
but having to work for it. A new era of sportscar racing began at Spa, with the
first outing for the new Hypercar regulations. Only three entries started in
the category and we saw Toyota on top again the rules having nobbled the true performance of the more exciting better supported LMP2 class… Reigning champion Scott Dixon and young Mexican Patricio O'Ward won the two Texas Indycar races but it was the amazing performance of rookie ex-Supercars champion Scott McLaughlin that caught the eye. This weekend sees the F1 teams head across the border from Portugal
into Spain. There’s also Formula E, NASCAR, Aussie Supercars and the first round of the BTCC to enjoy.
