At the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Toyota’s LMP1 squad is basically the Highlander—and we’re not talking about the truck. There can be only one...factory hybrid LMP1 team remaining in Le Mans’ fastest class. Thus, we’re not that surprised to see the No. 8 Toyota TS050 Hybrid set the fastest time in the first qualifying…

The fastest ever year of the IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship’s fastest Prototype class continues, this time, with a new Prototype class lap record at the 12 Hours of Sebring. Tristan Vautier will start Sebring out in front after claiming pole position with a 1:47.432 lap time in the No. 90 Spirit of Daytona…

In a retirement season where little has gone right for him, Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be starting from pole position for today’s Alabama 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. Despite having won at Talladega six times before, this is his first-ever pole position at the track.

If there’s one thing I’ve gathered from trying to badger various Porsche LMP1 team personnel about what they’re doing next year, it’s that all their energies are focused on going out with another championship until they figure all that out. And holy crap, they are quick.

Somehow in this year of oppressive engine penalties over in Formula One, NASCAR wants to institute annoying engine penalties of their own in 2018, reports ESPN. Granted, they’re less complex than F1’s, but if your favorite driver has to change an engine over a weekend next year, oof. I’m sorry.

To no one’s surprise, this year’s faster, crazier Formula One cars smashed the track record at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps. Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton claimed pole for tomorrow’s race with a 1:42.553, setting a new track record and matching Michael Schumacher’s record number of 68 pole positions claimed in F1.

One team at Le Mans has a huge bone to pick with last year’s results. Toyota’s car broke down from the lead last year right before its final lap, causing it to not even get classified as a finisher. This year Toyota brought three cars, one of which set a new lap record in qualifying. That new record gave their No. 7…

This year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans is shaping up to give us one ultra-close fight between Toyota and Porsche. First, Porsche was fastest in the first free practice session of the weekend. Now, Toyota went the fastest in the first night qualifying session. Less than a second separated the fastest Toyota from the…

You know that part in Star Wars where they go speeding through a narrow channel to blow up the Death Star? That’s what the Monaco Grand Prix circuit feels like at speed, except with Formula One cars. It’s absurdly tight and narrow, and you should enjoy its ridiculousness in this onboard of Kimi Räikkönen’s…

Two-time Formula One champion and Indianapolis 500 rookie Fernando Alonso made it into the top Fast Nine in today’s qualifying session for the 101st Indy 500. Qualifying points are assigned by starting position, so no matter where Alonso lands in the top nine qualifiers tomorrow, he’ll score more points in an orange…

Dale Coyne Racing IndyCar driver Sébastien Bourdais had been one of the fastest drivers in practice, setting the fastest time of Fast Friday. He was on track to set the fastest Indy 500 qualifying run of Saturday, but crashed hard into the wall after completing only two of his four qualifying laps, flipping in the…

If you’re just now following the Indianapolis 500 thanks to the appearance of a two-time Formula One champ on the grid, the Indy 500's qualifying system may look completely foreign to you. But it’s okay! We’re here to help you figure it all out, and it’s not as hard to follow from home as it may appear.

There’s no doubt that two-time Formula One world champion Fernando Alonso is the best driver in the worst car, with a McLaren that failed him on his out-lap in Free Practice 1. Bizarrely, that McLaren F1 car held it together long enough to make into the final Qualifying 3 session and nab a seventh place start.

The same car that’s won all of the past three WeatherTech Sports Car Championship races this year is at it again. Here in Austin, Ricky Taylor just took the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Cadillac DPi-V.R to a pole-grabbing lap of 1:54.809, 1.59 seconds faster than the next top Prototype-class car. That’s quick.

Honda’s Marc Márquez isn’t interested in letting anyone else in on his MotoGP dominance at the Circuit of The Americas. After a morning that featured the Spaniard dumping the bike twice in practice, Márquez grabbed his fifth consecutive pole position for the fifth-ever running of the race.

Christian Fittipaldi would have tried to fit in one more flying lap to try for pole position at the WeatherTech Sports Car Championship’s 12 Hours of Sebring on Friday, but he ran out of gas. Fittipaldi lost out to Neel Jani’s record-breaking fast lap by a mere 0.095 of a second, so he punched the first punchable…

If the lap times set in qualifying are any indication, we could see one of the fastest 12 Hours of Sebring races in years. Lap records were broken in all four classes, thanks largely in part to new cars and newer, grippier tires that were rolled out for this year. Lap times were ridiculously close between the cars,…

We’ve been waiting for months to discover just who exactly is the fastest out of all the brand-new prototype racers for 2017—in a true qualifying scenario, with all the sandbags (real or imagined) out of the car. Qualifying for this year’s Rolex 24 just wrapped up, so now we know: it’s the Cadillac!

World’s fastest selfie enthusiast and three-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton just crushed the old qualifying lap record at Circuit of the Americas to win pole position for this weekend’s United States Grand Prix.
