For the third and final time this season the stars of the iRacing.com Street Stock Series made a stop at the South Boston Speedway for some good short track online racing.� The final week of racing during Season Two saw a total of 925 sim racers participate in an official race during the seven days of competition.� Although over 900 sim racers attempted to master South Boston, the crown could only go to one driver and that was Elmar Erlekotte (DE-AT-CH) who earned the most championship points for Week Twelve. Weekly High Strength of Field Erlekotte’s week was a very triumphant one as he crossed the checkered flag first in the week’s highest Strength of Field (SoF) event.� The 2551 SoF featured Erlekotte leading all of the event’s 40 laps [...]

Calado fastest as Bacheta crashes
James Calado grabbed top spot in final seconds of the first GP3 free practice session of the weekend at the Hungaroring. The Briton was one of the final cars across the line before the chequered flag, and that meant that his lap was the last of the significant runners. Lewis Williamson and Tom Dillmann had both enjoyed very brief spells at the top, but Calado then put a significant chunk of time between himself and the field with his final lap.

Teams seek clarification on 2014 rules
Formula 1 teams are set to seek clarification from the FIA about the status of the 2014 regulations, amid concerns that details of the new rules having not been formally approved by them. New rules are supposed to be supported by F1's Technical Working Group and the F1 Commission, before being rubber stamped by the FIA's World Motor Sport Council. Although the principle of the 2014 rules - which include the switch to 1.6-litre V6 turbo engines and aerodynamically different chassis - have received backing from the teams and were approved by the WMSC in June, it is understood that some of the specific regulations have not yet been officially approved.
