2011 Motorcycle Racing Kicks Off In Portimao On Wednesday

For dedicated motorcycle racing fans, the months of December and January are the toughest of the year. Other than the occasional team launch and the odd private test - which are often rather secretive affairs - very little stirs in the world of motorcycle racing, and the events which are taking place are no substitute for real motorcycles posting real times on real tracks. So fans are forced to grit their teeth and hang on, waiting for better times.

That wait is almost over. On Wednesday, January 26th, the 2011 pre-season kicks off - more or less - officially, when the first official World Superbike test starts at the spectacular Portimao circuit on Portugal's Algarve coast. All of the major World Superbike contenders will be present, with the exception of the factory BMW team of Leon Haslam and Troy Corser, who are currently on their way to Australia, where they will be taking part in a private test.

Rolex 24 at Daytona

Rolex 24 at Daytona

It?s finally here. Racing season officially starts TODAY
The Rolex 24 at Daytona begins today at 3:00 ET only on Speed. And while Speed will have televised coverage of a lot of the event, in the wee-hours of the morning the Rolex 24 at Daytona will not be televised.
So if you find yourself having difficulties sleeping tonight, if you can?t watch the event live, or if you just get sick of the endless commercials, fear not! We?ve got you covered with LIVE timing and scoring of the Rolex 24 at Daytona

Date: Jan. 27, 2011
Event: 49th Rolex 24 At Daytona (Round 1 of 12)
Series: Daytona Prototype division of the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series
Location: Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway (3.56-mile, 12-turn road course)
Pole Winner: Jorg Bergmeister of Flying Lizard Motorsports (1:40.099 at 128.033 mph)

SunTrust Racing: Second by Max Angelelli (1:40.133 at 127.990 mph)

The No. 10 SunTrust Chevrolet Dallara of Wayne Taylor Racing will start this weekend?s 49th renewal of the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series season-opening Rolex 24 At Daytona from the inside of the front row after qualifying Thursday afternoon at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway.

Italian driving ace Max Angelelli, who?s co-driving the SunTrust Racing prototype with regular full-time teammate Ricky Taylor, IZOD IndyCar Series star Ryan Briscoe and team owner Wayne Taylor, clocked a lap of 1 minute, 40.133 seconds (127.990 mph) around the 3.56-mile, 12-turn superspeedway road circuit, second-fastest among 50 car-and-driver combinations entered for this weekend?s 24-hour endurance classic. Angelelli, the polesitter in the SunTrust Racing machine at last year?s Rolex 24, was just 34-thousandths of a second off the record-setting pole time of fellow former series champion Jorg Bergmeister in the No. 45 Flying Lizard Motorsports Porsche Riley today. Nonetheless, Angelelli qualified the SunTrust car on the front row for the fifth time in eight Rolex 24s since SunTrust joined the series in 2004.

Tony Stewart on Way Back to US After Reported Scuffle in Australia

Filed under: , ,



Two-time NASCAR champion Tony Stewart is reportedly en route to the United States a day after reports that he scuffled with a track owner during his final weekend racing in Australia.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Stewart threw his helmet at track co-owner Brett Morris during an alleged dispute over track conditions at Sydney Speedway. The newspaper said Stewart received a black eye in return from Morris, who the paper described as "not slight in size.''

Stewart's public relations manager Mike Arning said Saturday he was still trying to sort through the news but had spoken with Stewart, who was reportedly detained briefly by the local Rosehill police department for questioning about the incident. Although he was released and cleared for his already-scheduled departure Saturday, the paper says a local official confirmed there is ongoing investigation..

Stewart has been in Australia for the past four weeks -- the second consecutive year he and several other prominent American sprint car drivers have spent the off-season racing sprint cars.

The owner-driver is scheduled to drive his No. 14 Mobil 1-Office Depot Chevrolet in a three-day test session at Daytona International Speedway beginning Thursday.

Ashley Force Hood Expecting Baby, Will Sit Out 2011 NHRA Season


National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) star Ashley Force Hood formally announced Tuesday that she is pregnant and will take a "temporary hiatus" -- sitting out the 2011 Full Throttle drag racing championship.

This will be the first child for the two-time NHRA U.S. Nationals champ Hood, 28, and her husband, Dan. Force Hood's father, 15-time NHRA Funny Car champ John Force, announced that 2008 Rookie of the Year Mike Neff will return to the cockpit to fill in for Hood this season in the John Force Racing Mustang. Dan Hood will be his tuner.

In addition to Force Hood's news, her father announced that 2009 Funny Car champ Robert Hight has been promoted to President of John Force Racing, which has won 17 of the last 21 NHRA Funny Car titles. Force will hold the title of CEO.

"This past November, after watching my dad clinch his 15th championship, Dan and I decided we would try to start a family,'' said Force Hood, who will take over as president of John Force Entertainment during her racing sabbatical.

"We felt that if God wanted it to happen, it would happen. Well, God didn't waste any time and I am pregnant and due at the end of the summer.''

Force said she still plans on representing her sponsors this season and will work closely with your younger sister Courtney, who is planning to make her NHRA pro class debut this season.

Spy Shots: Brammo Empulse RR Testing at Thunderhill

Yesterday was a sunny day in the San Francisco/Bay Area, with weather in the mid-60′s. Just recently getting my bike back from a tune-up, I was itching for a ride and decided to pack things up early for the day, and go for a quick jaunt up to Thunderhill Raceway to gatecrash Brammo’s latest testing session with the Empulse RR electric race bike (close-up shots from Laguna Seca last year�here).

Official FIM 2011 Provisional MotoGP Rider List - Not So Provisional At All

Below is the "provisional" MotoGP entry list issued by the FIM. Given the cost and complexity of a MotoGP entry, it should be regarded as anything but provisional, as all of the names are confirmed, and no new entries are expected, despite rumors that other manufacturers may make a surprise return.

2011 WSBK Portimao Test Friday Session 2 Times: Little Change In Tricky Session

The weather conditions were once again the main protagonist on the final day of testing for the World Superbike class at Portimao, with few riders managing to improve their times from the morning session. Only Noriyuki Haga and Eugene Laverty made any significant progress, moving up into 3rd and 4th respectively in the combined times from both of Friday's sessions. 

The World Superbike riders now turn their sights towards Australia, and the opening round of the WSBK season at Phillip Island. Before that, though, there is a final test at the Australian track, to prepare for battle to commence in earnest.
