Jack Doohan ‘horrific’ 185mph practice crash

Jack Doohan is “shaken” but “unharmed” after suffering a high-speed crash during Friday practice at the F1 Japanese Grand Prix. The Australian, who sat out of opening practice as Alpine opted to run reserve driver Ryo Hirakawa on home soil, lost control of his car and spun off into the barriers at Turn 1. Doohan suffered extensive damage to his Alpine, including losing two wheels, and was seen gingerly walking away from the scene of the huge crash. He was uninjured in the accident and did not suffer a concussion, having been cleared following a trip to the Suzuka medical centre. The shunt was clocked at 185mph, according to Alpine, who are continuing to assess the cause of the accident. “If you were watching free practice two you would have seen the quite horrific accident of Jack Doohan into Turn 1,” Sky Sports F1 pitlane reporter Ted Kravitz said. “We haven’t seen a crash of this speed and with this kind of impact, certainly in the whole of 2025 and I can’t think when back to 2024. “185mph. Just think about that. Think about if you’ve been on the motorway and been naughty and done 15mph over the speed limit at 85mph. Think […]

James Hillier on OMG Racing withdrawal

OMG Racing’s withdrawal from racing has had knock-on effects on WTF Racing. James Hiller has discussed the ‘shock’ he felt when it was announced that OMG Racing and WTF Racing have both withdrawn from racing. Hillier has ridden for Alan Gardner’s OMG Team on the roads since 2022, when he first piloted a Yamaha R1. However, since then, the road racing team has been named ‘WTF Racing’ after OMG Racing became the official Yamaha UK BSB team. The one-time TT race winner was set to return with WTF Racing for the 2025 road racing season. This year, Hillier was set to pilot a Honda CBR1000RR-R, but the recent announcement means that he is now ride-less only weeks ahead of the season. “My phone’s been pretty crazy since [Tuesday] afternoon when the news was released,” Hillier said in a video posted to his Instagram account. “That was honestly a big shock, I really didn’t see that coming; it’s not great timing, especially on April Fools’ Day. “I wished it was a joke but unfortunately it isn’t. “I also want to say a big thank you to Alan Gardner for all the effort and time he’s put into racing; with OMG and WTF – the whole […]

Max Verstappen “not happy” after Liam Lawson exit

According to Helmut Marko, Max Verstappen is “not happy” with Red Bull’s decision to replace Liam Lawson after just two race weekends. Red Bull motorsport advisor Helmut Marko has revealed that four-time champion Max Verstappen is “not happy” after the team decided to drop Liam Lawson ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix. After just two race weekends of his rookie Formula 1 season, Red Bull announced that Lawson is moving back to its sister team Racing Bulls, and Yuki Tsunoda will be taking the spot alongside Verstappen from the Japanese Grand Prix onwards. The Milton Keynes squad assessed both Lawson and Tsunoda in the latter stages of the 2024 season to decide who would replace Sergio Perez in the team for 2025. Despite the Japanese driver’s four-year experience in Racing Bulls, they opted to sign Lawson, citing his ability to consistently perform under pressure. However, after just three races, including the sprint race in China, the team has made a U-turn on this choice. After the announcement was made yesterday, Marko has revealed to De Telegraaf that Verstappen is not happy with the decision. He explained: “We know Max is not happy. But we need two cars at the front. Not only for the constructors’ championship but also to help Max […]

Liam Lawson officially dumped after two races

Liam Lawson has sensationally been axed after just two races, with Yuki Tsunoda promoted to the main team ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix. Lawson will see out the season at Racing Bulls, returning to the team at which he started 11 grands prix prior to his promotion this season. The move was heavily rumoured during the Chinese Grand Prix, where Lawson qualified last for both the sprint and the feature race. He finished well outside the points for both and far behind teammate Max Verstappen, who pinched a podium in the short Saturday race. It compounded his difficult maiden in Australia, where he crashed out of the race after starting from pit lane. The Kiwi had been inducted to Red Bull Racing to replace Sergio Pérez, who struggled badly last year, scoring just 13 points in the final nine rounds. Lawson has now fallen on his sword just 13 days after first suiting up for the team for first practice in Melbourne. “It has been difficult to see Liam struggle with the RB21 at the first two races, and as a result we have collectively taken the decision to make an early switch,” Red Bull Racing principal Christian Horner […]

Martin long injury recovery “killing me”

Jorge Martin’s recovery process is taking longer than he anticipated, delaying his 2025 race debut. Aprilia Racing rider Jorge Martin has given fans details behind his ongoing recovery from his injuries sustained ahead of the 2025 MotoGP season. The reigning champion suffered from a horrific crash during testing in Sepang, injuring his right hand and left foot. After undergoing surgery, he returned to the bike, aiming to make the season-opening race in Thailand. However, a further crash left him needing further surgery to his left wrist, which has since seen him out of the 2025 season so far. Updates on the Spanish rider’s recovery have been few and far between up until this point, but Martin has now given a glimpse into his intense recovery during a vlog on his YouTube channel. He explained: “The first two weeks were pretty hard. You have doubts. You say ‘maybe I won’t be the same as before.’ But I’m starting to see the light now I can train again. “Those weeks without being able to leave the house were killing me. I don’t know when I’ll return, but I’m already in the process. I’m eating well, I can laugh, I can cough – because before the […]

Eddie Jordan former F1 team owner dies aged 76

Eddie Jordan has passed away at the age of 76; Jordan had an F1 team for 15 seasons, winning four races; The Irishman recently oversaw Adrian Newey’s transfer from Red Bull to Aston Martin and led a consortium that bought rugby union club London Irish out of administration. Jordan had an F1 team, Jordan Grand Prix, from 1991 to 2005 and was a former shareholder of Celtic Football Club. Last year, the Irishman revealed he was diagnosed with an “aggressive” form of cancer. Jordan said he suffered with bladder and prostate cancer which spread to his spine and pelvis. A family statement on Thursday read: “It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Eddie Jordan OBE, the ex-Formula 1 team owner, TV pundit and entrepreneur. “He passed away peacefully with family by his side in Cape Town in the early hours of 20 March 2025.” They added: “EJ brought an abundance of charisma, energy and Irish charm everywhere he went. We all have a huge hole missing without his presence. He will be missed by so many people, but he leaves us with tonnes of great memories to keep us smiling through our sorrow.” Jordan’s team won […]

Five race development plan for Red Bulls Lawson

The Australian Grand Prix didn’t go to plan for Liam Lawson but Helmut Marko won’t pass judgement on the Red Bull rookie until he’s completed “three to five” races with the senior team. Promoted to Red Bull for the F1 2025 championship after 11 Grands Prix with the junior team over two seasons, Marko made it clear before the campaign that Lawson’s job was to “help” Max Verstappen win the titles for Red Bull. Alas, Race One didn’t go to plan. Lawson was knocked out in Q1 at the Albert Park circuit after aborting his final flying lap in Q1 when a wayward moment through Turn 10 was compounded by a slide at the penultimate corner. Down in 18th place on the grid and with rain forecast for the Grand Prix, Red Bull bolted a different specification rear wing and rear beam wing onto the New Zealander’s car but it came to nought. Lawson added his name to the list of non-finishers when he crashed late in the race, the Red Bull driver one of four rookies who didn’t see the chequered flag along Isack Hadjar, Jack Doohan and Gabriel Bortoleto. Spinning off on his slick tyres as others pitted […]
