Now that the schedule is out I'm pretty surprised by the short turnaround between Michigan and Mexico. That seems like a logistically nightmare although maybe they have multiple transportation teams so that it is easier to get the trucks and vehicles down to Mexico?

Cool that their going back to Rockingam in the Xfinity/Truck series. Lime Rock tried to get a Truck race when the series began in the mid-90s. Almost 30 years later, they got one. That's cool.

Sounds like Homestead is probably final race in 2026 with renovations planned for after 2025 race so that's why the race is early in year. More time to complete renovations.

A lot of the pit equipment is transported en masse from track to track so that shouldn't be an issue. Being a road course the cars could be on the road ahead of michigan.

Too bad for SVG. I didn't see a replay but it looked like he got a bit out of shape on his own in the bus stop which allowed for Buescher to get to his bumper and create that shove situation.

I thought it was a pretty good race, exciting finish. Finishing on a GWC is tough with 35 cars heading into turn one, surprised it only took two attempts. Leaders raced each other pretty clean.

Super annoying question, I'm sure: Where/how do I watch motorsports?

Like, for example, if I want to watch all three parts of the triple crown (monaco, le mans and indy)... is there a single streaming service that would allow that or do I have to sub to a different service for each of WEC, F1 and Indy?

What about GT events?

I love cars and I love racing, but I'm a total newb to actually watching any of it. (I don't want a cable tv package.)

I just subbed to F1TV and I'm watching the Mtl GP from July, but it dawned on me that it's probably not going to show me the other races I want to see.

No, you would need three streaming services to watch those series.

Ty Dillion getting a full time Cup ride with Kaulig is a bigger travesty than Stroll being in F1.

Grandpa must be giving Kaulig race engines for free.

I'm heading up to Skagit tonight to watch 55 laps of IMCA mods racing for 10k.

They made some significant track changes if I'm not mistaken so it will be interesting to see how that impacts the race.

The hairpin is going to be worse than turn 1 at COTA.

Alex Bowman got DQ for not meeting minimum weight and was eliminated from the NASCAR playoffs.

Joey Logano is elevated to 8th.

I'm in Vegas this weekend and am trying to decide between Cars Tour on the bullring or the Xfinity race. Leaning towards the bullring.
