The team's debut race livery is set to be revealed at the Berlin event, just under 50 days before the first race of the 2026 season.

The film reveals how a small racing team managed to send American stock cars all the way to Japan. While Legacy Motor Club is not one of the biggest names in the Cup Series at present, Johnson aims to change that and plans to expand next year. The film, titled "The Climb to Mt. Fuji," captures Jimmie Johnson's team accepting a personal invitation from Akio Toyoda, Toyota's Chairman, to bring NASCAR to Fuji Speedway for the Super Taikyu event.

20+ min ago (405+ words) Pierre Gasly's Formula 1 career didn't end when Red Bull let him go. It started again. The Frenchman turned one of the sport's most public rejections into a blueprint for personal and professional growth that now defines his second life in F1. Gasly's 2019 demotion from Red Bull was the moment that reshaped him. He described that season as "sad," adding that there was no support from inside the team. The move back to Toro Rosso, seen from the outside as a step down, became his reset point. He admitted the change brought relief, not frustration. It gave him the freedom to rebuild his confidence and performance without the shadow of comparison. That clarity became the foundation for everything that followed. Gasly's return coincided with the hardest chapter of his life. The loss of his close friend Anthoine Hubert at Spa forced him…...

22+ min ago (623+ words) For nearly a decade, Max Verstappen's car number has been part of his identity, and from the bold 33 that followed him through his rise to the No. 1 that confirmed his place at the very top, the number on the Red Bull has always carried meaning. That is why his latest decision has caught the F1 paddock slightly off guard. As the sport looks ahead to 2026, Verstappen has confirmed he will race with a new number, and after years of running either his trademark No. 33 or the champion's No. 1, the Dutchman is switching things up. Verstappen arrived in the sport as a teenager in 2015, and by the time he became Red Bull's lead driver, he had already built a reputation for being fearless and fast. Four world titles later, he is still the driver everyone else is chasing in the modern era…...

25+ min ago (708+ words) At the heart of this optimism is the car itself. The new and revised 2026 machines will be smaller, lighter, and more agile, reversing a long trend that left drivers wrestling with bulky designs that punished close racing. Shorter wheelbases (down by 200mm), a reduced width by 100 mm, and simpler bodywork promise cars that respond more directly to driver input. Furthermore, reduced reliance on intricate ground-effect floors and a shift toward flatter underbodies should usher in a new era, one that says goodbye to the old "perfect setup" era, ultimately opening the door to varied driving styles once again. Reflecting on the revision, one enthusiastic fan couldn't contain his excitement. "This is literally what F1 has been since 2020. 2021 was also only saved by all the politics and drama between 2 titans of the sport. I see 2026 changing all of that. Right now, nobody can…...

Red Bull's four-time world champion raced with the 33 until his first title in 2021, the number also appearing on a multitude of caps and shirts " and even some fan tattoos. "My favourite number has always been three, apart from number one," the Dutch driver told Viaplay. "We can now swap, so it'll be number three." He added: "Number 33 was always fine, but I just like one three better than two. I always said it represented double luck but I've already had my luck in Formula One." Australian Ricciardo was Verstappen's Red Bull…...

But a recent development has many fuming at the hierarchy, namely Jim France, Steve O'Donnell, and Steve Phelps, again. What went wrong this time? Fans had been calling for more practice time, but it has been confirmed that NASCAR will not make the changes they were hoping for next season. Bob Pockrass confirmed that the 2026 Cup Series will stick with its existing practice format, a decision that has sparked mixed reactions among fans. Meanwhile, the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series and the Truck Series will offer drivers longer, uninterrupted 50-minute practice sessions. NASCAR reduced the practice time in 2020. Back then, the series scaled back from three 50-minute sessions to two 20-minute ones. Then COVID hit, and practice time was eliminated in the 2020 and 2021 editions. "You show up…...

Located within the Ferrari garage, Shell's travelling trackside laboratory houses a mobile chemistry suite packed with high-precision instruments, humming software, and, on any given day, a pair of analysts testing hundreds of fuel and lubricant samples. To step inside the lab, as I did at the Circuit of The Americas, is to walk into a world where chemistry, engineering, and adrenaline collide. "This laboratory goes around the world," explained Shell trackside analyst Lauren Singer, who has spent her three Shell traveling with Scuderia Ferrari HP. "The lab itself doesn't change, but the minute you step outside these doors, everything is different. The cities, the…...

As revealed by French publication Ouest-France, the famous footbridge, which has been synonymously linked to the French endurance classic, will no longer be called Dunlop beginning next year. This is because Goodyear sold the Dunlop brand to Sumitomo Rubber Industries earlier this year, which includes the brand's assets in Europe, North America and Oceania, in a deal estimated to have been priced at $701 million. While Dunlop had been a stalwart tire supplier at Le Mans up until the 2010s, its competition rubber was rebranded…...

There are few people who better understand the value of feeling at home on the road than those in the motorsports world. At every level of racing, both in America and abroad, the track isn't just a place to compete; it's a place to live during race weeks. That's why, when it came time to upgrade his family's decades-old trailer earlier this decade, American open-wheel racing legend Michael Andretti knew something special was needed. "We have to be there early in the morning," Michael told Robb Report. "We're there until late, till late at night. So, you know, for us to stay at the track, it makes it so much easier." Robb Report has seen its fair share of luxury travel trailers, but the Zenith…...
