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?
NASCAR's Daytona 500 is this weekend and thus, is the big news. NASCAR likes to start its season with its biggest race, and this is it. Speedways like the 2.5-mile Daytona course force drivers to rely much more on teamwork and drafting than other courses, so expect close racing and the potential for big carnage, should someone get bumped in one of Daytona's big banked turns.
NASCAR may dominate the weekend, but NHRA hits Phoenix and the Superbike World Championship heads to Phillip Island. AMA Supercross also continues its early weekly schedule.
If you know about anything we missed, or about good livestreams out there, let us know in the comments below.
