Apparently Mr. France pulled the "Don't you know who I am!" card. I wish I was the arresting officer so I could've replied "Yeah you're the guy who f***ed up NASCAR." Also Brian is out indefinitely and Jim France, his uncle, will take over in the interim. Source

Greg Hodnett wins Night 1 of the Knoxville Nationals, and sits 8th in points. That might not be good enough to lock him into Saturday's Main Event.
Kyle Larson currently leads the overall points, and Donny Schatz (dear lord, anyone but him...) sits 2nd.

Brad Sweet (#49 : Kasey Kahne Racing/Grass Valley, CA) is YOUR 2018 Knoxville Nationals champion.
Unfortunately, none of my PA boys did jack shit.
Feel free to point and laugh.

Fernando Alonso has announced he’ll be leaving Formula 1 at the end of the year, presumably to commit to a proper IndyCar run and a few years of trying to win the Indy 500.

www.autosport.com/f1/news/138025/alonso-will-not-race-in-f1-in-2019So it looks like Fernando Alonso will not be returning to Formula 1 in 2019.. Honestly, I'm not that surprised.. The fact that he has been doing things like IndyCar and the Le Mans 24 hours pretty much suggested he was looking for options outside of F1. A 2 Time champion but it arguably should have been atleast 5.. Could have won with McLaren back in 2007 and there were atleast 2 that got away in 2010 and 2012 during his time at Ferrari.. It's a shame his return to McLaren was pretty unsuccessful and it pisses me off to see how far back they have fallen. Was never a big fan of the guy but I can't deny he was pretty damn good.. If you only got into Formula 1 in the past 4 years or so you wont know just how good he could be.

Alonso retiring is such a loss for the sport. Genuinely one of the greatest of all time and the best of his generation in my opinion.

Kasey Kahne is now announcing he will no longer race full-time after this season. Wonder if he tries buying up one of the PA Dirt Tracks. He's already established ties to the 410 Sprint scene here, so it's not entirely out of the question.

Sainz to McLaren confirmed with heavy rumours of Gasly to Red Bull and McLaren loaning soon-to-be F2 Champion Lando Norris to Toro Rosso. Other, less corroborated rumours include Kimi to Haas as a replacement for Grosjean who is let go and Nirei Fukuzumi to Toro Rosso as Hartley gets the boot.

20 years after the rain caused chaos for the race in Belgium, it's making things interesting for the end of qualifying.

By the way, officially Force India is starting again as a new team as of this race due to going bankrupt and being bought out (they only had time over the break to buy the assets, not the whole team). They lose all Constructor points for the season to date though the drivers do not.
By other teams sportsmanship the new team (Racing Point Force India) are gifted the prize money Sahara Force India had.

We're about ready to race in Spa. There's no rain predicted, but you never can tell at this place.
