Remembering BTCC great and 24 Heures du Mans racer David Leslie, born on this day in 1953. Hailing from Annan, between Gretna Green and Dumfries, David is probably best known for his 219 BTCC races between 1987 and 2003 for Ecurie Ecosse Vauxhall, Honda Team MSD, Vodafone Nissan Racing and PETRONAS Syntium Proton. In that time David took took 9 wins. 35 podiums, 16 pole positions and 17 fastest laps, many of which were in a terrific 1999 season when he finished as runner up to Laurent Aiello. He also competed in the British F1 Championship in 1979, two races in the Swedish Scandinavian Touring Car Championship in 2000 and 7 British GT Championship events that year. The Scot drove in 3 runnings of the 24 Hours of Spa with a best result of 7th in 1998, and competed in 24 Hours of Le Mans on 10 occasions between 1984 and 1995 with Ecurie Ecosse, Mazda, Aston Martin, Jaguar & Marcos alongside the likes of Mike Wilds, Martin Brundle & David Sears. In 1993 he raced the Jaguar XJ220 alongside Win Percy & Armin Hahne, retiring with engine failure while in contention for the lead of the GT class. A hard racer but a really lovely, affable guy, David was tragically lost in an aircraft accident in 2008. He is greatly missed. Rest In Peace, David 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #happybirthday #restinpeace #BTCC #lemans #f1 #legend #scotland 📸 Michael Lee

On this day 32 years ago the F1 world saw a familiar occurrence, an occurrence that had happened 40 times before. Little did the world know the 41st time would be the last. On November 7th 1993 the great Ayrton Senna won a Grand Prix for the final time. It was also the last time he finished a GP, took a podium and scored an F1 point. The Drivers Titles had already been secured by Williams' Alain Prost who was driving in his final GP. His seat in the team would be taken by Senna, who had one more race with McLaren in the season closer at and ahead he took his first pole position of the season, breaking a run of 24 consecutive poles for Williams. He was joined on Row 1 by Prost ahead of Damon Hill & Michael Schumacher, but the race only got underway at the 3rd attempt. First Martin Brundle was left on the grid in his "art car" Ligier before Ukyo Katayama stalled his Tyrrell. Then Eddie Irvine stalled his Jordan after missing his grid box - he and Katayama were sent to the back as the race finally began. Senna eased into the lead early on, maintaining a gap and then extending it through the stops, after which he emerged with a healthy advantage after retirements for Johnny Herbert, Mika Häkkinen, Schumacher & Irvine early on. Hill & Prost tussled for 2nd with Hill attempting a pass on lap 61, a move that was blocked by Prost and caused Hill to spin - he dropped back but maintained his position. Senna took a 9-second win from Prost with Hill a distant 3rd, while the Ferrari's of Jean Alesi & Gerhard Berger were a lap down ahead of Brundle who recovered to take a point in 6th. Riccardo Patrese (8th) & Derek Warwick (10th) both retired from F1 after this race, Patrese having competed in a then-record 256 Grands Prix. After Prost & Hill joined Senna on the top step in an easing of tensions in a famous rivalry, a Tina Turner concert provided the traditional post-race entertainment - during Senna joined Turner on stage. despite having already played the song, she dedicated a 2nd rendition of "Simply The Best" to the Brazilian. None of knew how poignant it would be just 6 months later... 🇦🇺🇧🇷

🚨🗞️ F1 is preparing to return to a 2.4L V8 hybrid engine, combining a naturally aspirated engine with 220–240 kW of hybrid output, Auto, Motor und Sport (AMuS) reports. That’s in between the current electric output and the 2026 numbers. The goal: simpler, more affordable, and more engaging power units. But Audi and Honda are pushing back against an early switch, citing their heavy investments in the 2026 V6 hybrid program. The FIA, F1 and engine manufacturers will meet after this weekend’s Italian GP at Monza to discuss timelines, with 2029 emerging as the earliest realistic target.

Front wing comparison in Formula 1: 2018 vs 2025 2018: Extremely complex designs, full of flaps, slots, and winglets. The main goal was to push airflow around the tires and maximize downforce — but it created huge turbulence, making it hard for cars to follow closely. 2025: Much simpler and cleaner. Bigger, smoother elements designed to keep strong downforce while reducing dirty air. This means closer racing and better on-track battles. 📸: Xavier Bonilla / NurPhoto via Getty Images | Motorsport-Magazin.com #F1 #Formula1 #FormulaOne #F1News #Formula1News #F12025 #GrandPrix #MotorSport #Race #Racing We do not own the images or videos.

With it being Brazil GP race week, we thought it would be good to remind everyone that the Road To F1 has seen four Brazilian champs in the last four years 🤷‍♂️🇧🇷

Red Bull RB21 – Aerodynamic configuration comparison At the #AzerbaijanGP, the car ran with a slimmer engine cover, aimed at reducing drag and improving straight-line speed. At the #SingaporeGP, the car featured a wider engine cover with larger cooling exits, improving airflow extraction from the engine bay and ensuring stable performance in hot, slow-speed conditions. 📸: XPB Images #F1 #Formula1 #FormulaOne #F1News #Formula1News #F12025 #GrandPrix #MotorSport #Race #Racing #RedBullF1 We do not own the images or videos.
