McLaren's Lewis Hamilton overcame a pre- race fueling issue and then passed Sebastian Vettel from Red Bull with less than five laps remaining to win Sunday's Chinese Grand Prix.
Will Power of Team Penske earned the pole for Sunday's IZOD IndyCar Series Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. Power has won all three poles this season and six consecutive on road/street courses. He claimed the top spot with a lap of one minute, 09.0649 seconds around the 1.968-mile, 11-turn street course to edge out Andretti Motorsport's Ryan Hunter-Reay.
Kyle Busch prevailed in an exciting and wild afternoon of Nationwide Series racing at Talladega Superspeedway.
Hendrick Motorsports dominated Saturday's qualifying at Talladega Superspeedway, with all four of its drivers sweeping the top-four starting positions for the Aaron's 499.
Defending Formula One world champion Sebastian Vettel continued his season of perfection by winning Saturday's qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix.
Elliott Sadler won the pole for the Aaron's 312, while Clint Bowyer qualified second to give Kevin Harvick Inc. the front starting row for Saturday's Nationwide Series race at Talladega Superspeedway.
Power's win at Barber allowed him to take over the points lead. He holds a seven-point advantage over Franchitti, who finished third there.
The 23-year-old German became the youngest-ever F1 world champion last year. He won the final two rounds of the 2010 season -- Brazil and Abu Dhabi -- to finish just four points ahead of Ferrari's Fernando Alonso for the title.
Since the car's maiden run last July at Daytona, all four manufacturers in the series -- Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford and Toyota -- have won. Last Friday, Carl Edwards gave the Ford Mustang its first win with a dominating performance in the 300-mile race at Texas.
Sprint Cup Series teams will use a smaller restrictor plate for Talladega, with the size of the four holes on the plates each measuring 7/8 inch. Restrictor plates limit airflow in the carburetors and therefore reduce horsepower. The hole size used for the Daytona 500 was 1/64 inch wider than the one slated for Talladega.
Sprint Cup Series
The organizers responsible for bringing Formula One racing back to the United States in 2012 officially bestowed a name to its Austin track -- Circuit of the Americas.
As expected, Daytona 500 champion Trevor Bayne will compete in the May 21 NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway after his Wood Brothers Racing team acquired sponsorship for the event.
What a wreck the IZOD IndyCar Series has created so far with its new double-file restart format. The first two races this season have featured enough scrap metal to fill up a junkyard, thanks in part to numerous multi-car wrecks that have occurred after restarts.
Daytona 500 champion Trevor Bayne was treated and released from a Charlotte hospital on Sunday after a reaction from an apparent insect bite on his left elbow.
Will Power had an easy Sunday afternoon drive to win the Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park.
Reigning world champion Sebastian Vettel remained perfect in the 2011 Formula One season with an impressive win in Sunday's Malaysian Grand Prix.
