NASCAR Season Review and Look Ahead to 2012
It’s been a great year in Nascar. We’ve seen a lot of great stories unfold, new winners and emerging names throwing their hats into the ring for future sprint cup championship contention. We saw the season open with a very memorable Daytona 500. This race premièred to the masses the new style of racing at the super [...]
La Vuelta 2011 Review
This year’s Vuelta was a really exciting race and definitely a great introduction to the event for me. Unfortunately I didn’t really get back into cycling in time to catch the Giro D’Italia this year but I was treated to a great Tour de France and a great Vuelta. The race was one of surprise [...]
Leopard Trek, RadioShack Merger Confirmed
I don’t know why companies keep doing this recently, but just yesterday or the day before it was reported on cyclingnews.com that Leopard Trek had denied the reports of them merging with RadioShack, but then today they confirm it. Why they didn’t just keep quiet rather than denying things I don’t understand, but regardless, we [...]
The Cycling Signing Season
This is the time of year in many sports where rumours of signings and team changing goes into overdrive, and cycling is no exception. It’s pretty exciting to speculate and see all of these moves being made, new teams coming and and existing teams merging. Of course, things are made more interesting because of the [...]
What is my Passion? Do I even have one?
Does everyone have a passion? One particular interest that provokes intense feelings and takes over your mind like no other subject can. I’m sure they can and do, but I feel kind of fickle in that regard. Until recently, I had convinced myself that photography was my passion. It’s certainly an activity that I take [...]
Will Mark Cavendish go to Team Sky?
Mark was on BBC Radio 5 Live on Tuesday morning and in the interview he was pressed heavily about his decision to potentially move teams. He confirmed that he has made a decision and that it will be made public in the next few weeks. Despite the fact that going to Team Sky would reunite [...]
Imola 6 Hours and ILMC Becoming FIA Championship
When I heard that the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup was to become an official FIA sanctioned championship next year I was really pleased. Endurance racing deserves to be on par with the likes of F1 and WRC in my opinion, and from next season it will be. It’s a fantastic decision. The official name of [...]
Le Mans 2011
Le Mans 2011 This year wasn’t the first time I’ve been into the Le Mans 24 Hours, but it’s the first time I’ve obsessively watched the entire race from start to finish. I just felt that because I love it so much, and because I want to experience the entirety of Le Mans to its [...]
My View on the Lewis Hamilton Controversy
I think Lewis really needs to change something in the way he mentally tackles a race. He’s said before that he won’t change his driving style regardless of what happens because it’s just the driver he is. That’s all well and good, but he has to ask himself if he wants to win another championship. [...]
F1: Turkish Grand Prix Thoughts
The Turkish Grand Prix in Istanbul extended F1′s streak of exciting races to start this season. While we still had the same winner and pole sitter, that didn’t stop it from being an enthralling race in which you couldn’t predict the podium result until right near the end of the race due to predominantly the tyres. People [...]
