  • Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0

    Echoing sentiments of fans around the world, Porsche's CEO Matthias Mueller has called Formula 1 "not interesting," and "simply too expensive." Instead, the company will be putting its racing efforts toward a new FIA endurance racing category to come in 2014. Porsche already backs many GT-class cars with variants of its 911 in series around the world, including Le Mans, so the endurance racing decision is a natural move from that perspective. It also resonates more with fans in its key markets, according to Mueller. Rumors have placed Volkswagen, Audi, or Porsche at the helm of an F1 program...

  • Red Bull Racing at the 2011 Formula 1 Belgian GP

    Conditions are overcast today at Spa-Francorchamps, the home of the 2011 Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix, but there’s only a 20 percent chance of precipitation despite the hilly 4.35-mile track’s tradition for wet races.

The thermometer reading currently is a chilly 48 degrees F, and top temps are only expected to reach 59 degrees. Nevertheless, if it stays dry, we should see a good race between two champions...
