Van Gisbergen Filthy about San Diego Race

A massive crash on Lap 32 dramatically altered Sunday’s NASCAR Cup race in San Diego, erupting as the field funneled into Turn 1. Front‑row starters Connor Zilisch and Austin Hill made contact when Hill overshot the corner and missed the apex, sliding up the track and into Zilisch. Both cars slammed the outside wall, and Shane van Gisbergen, running directly behind them, had nowhere to go and piled in. Hill radioed, “Sorry guys, locked up the rear brakes,” after the incident. The wreck destroyed both Trackhouse Chevrolets and heavily damaged Hill’s No. 33. A chain‑reaction collected several others — Daniel Suárez, Ryan Blaney, Michael McDowell, Riley Herbst, John Hunter Nemechek, and Ty Gibbs — with varying degrees of damage. NASCAR immediately threw the red flag to repair the Turn 1 wall. After roughly ten minutes, the race returned to yellow‑flag conditions. Van Gisbergen, visibly frustrated, declined to discuss the crash after exiting the infield care center, telling reporters to “ask the next guys.” He later called the car “unreal fast once the track rubbered up” and said he was “filthy” to leave San Diego with only one point. Looking ahead to another road course next week, he noted the challenge […]

Bezzecchi banned from Czech MotoGP for striking marshal

MotoGP championship leader Marco Bezzecchi has apologised after an extraordinary incident that led to his suspension from Sunday’s Czech Grand Prix at Brno. Bezzecchi crashed out of fifth place during Saturday’s sprint race and, in a moment of anger, was seen running toward a track marshal and striking him twice in the face as the official attempted to recover his bike. The footage prompted an immediate investigation, with stewards citing unsportsmanlike conduct and issuing a race ban. In their decision, officials ruled that Bezzecchi’s actions were “prejudicial to the interests of the sport,” noting that physical aggression toward circuit staff violates core MotoGP regulations. Aprilia appealed the penalty, but the appeal was dismissed within hours. The appeal panel stressed that while riders may experience heightened emotions after a crash, physical confrontation with marshals cannot be excused, adding that the sport depends on officials being able to perform their duties “without fear of intimidation, abuse, or physical assault.” Bezzecchi sought out the marshal on Sunday to apologise in person before releasing a public statement acknowledging his behaviour was unacceptable. The suspension marks a significant setback for the Italian rider, whose championship lead over teammate Jorge Martin had already been cut to […]

Kamil Holan named as rider killed at North West 200

The rider killed in an accident at the North West 200 on Thursday has been named as Kamil Holan, from the Czech Republic. The crash occurred at Station Corner in the opening Superbike qualifying session on Thursday morning in Northern Ireland. Holan, 48, is the first fatality at the North West 200 since Malachi Mitchell-Thomas was killed in a Supertwins race in 2016, and he is the 20th to lose their life in the 97-year history of the event. Hefty74, Holan’s team, led tributes to the Czech rider, saying “above all he was a wonderful friend and a man of great character”. “Kamil, you were an inspiration, support and a partner in life and on the track. Your humility, passion and smile will be missed every second,” Hefty74 posted on Facebook. “Your legacy will live on in Hefty74 and in our hearts. We express our deepest and most sincere condolences to his entire family and all his loved ones”. One of a number of international riders competing at the road race in Northern Ireland, Holan, who lived in Prague, first raced at the North West 200 in 2022. His most notable victory came at the Manx Grand Prix in 2012, […]

2026 IOMTT Carole Nash Sportbike Top 20

The Supertwin class, on the race schedule since 2012, has been updated for 2026 to include Sportbike specification machines. Despite this, the lineup remains familiar with many regulars among the 20 seeded riders. Michael Dunlop dominates recent Supertwin races, winning five of the last six, making him the rider to beat. Mike Browne and Paul Jordan, both with recent podiums, will start first and second. Jordan continues with the Jackson Racing Prosper2 Aprilia, having set the third fastest lap in the class, while Browne returns to Paton machinery for Melbray/Laycock Racing. With Dean Harrison absent, Michael Evans takes the number three plate, aiming to secure a strong result after a turbulent 2025. Adam McLean, sidelined by surgery, withdraws, leaving a gap between Jamie Coward (number four) and Dunlop (number six). Coward, with two Supertwin TT podiums and the second fastest lap at 122.520mph, rides a Paton for the first time and is among the favorites. Dunlop, a 33-time TT winner, rides Paton machinery, holding seven Supertwin victories and the lap record, recently extended to 123.056mph. Barry Furber starts seventh on a DC Motorcycles Newtown Yamaha, with consistent top-ten finishes and a career-best sixth in 2023. Davey Todd, starting eighth, switches […]
