Welcome to the Jalopnik Weekend Motorsports Roundup, where we let you know what's going on in the world of racing, where you can see it, and where you can talk about it all in one convenient place. Where else would you want to spend your weekend?
Last weekend was a bit of a dud because of the holidays, but we're making up for it this weekend. I think everyone except me is racing something, somewhere. If you need someone to drive a Porsche slowly, I should be pretty easy to find since we're at MotoGP in Austin.
What else is happening this weekend? NASCAR goes to Texas Motor Speedway, home of multiple post-race spats and artery-clogging creations. The World Endurance Championship season officially begins with 6 Hours of Silverstone, and we can actually watch the whole thing in its entirety on TV. Hooray! IndyCar adds its first permanent road course race track in years with this weekend's trip to NOLA Motorsports Park. Formula One is in Shanghai for the Chinese Grand Prix. NHRA goes to Las Vegas. Race all the cars!
