damn odd that... the teams that were successful early on the season are not so happy with it now and viscera for the teams that did not so well before are doing better now.

go figure

Childress receives annual Argetsinger Award

NASCAR race car driver and team owner Richard Childress was honored Friday night at a dinner at the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel with the annual Cameron R. Argetsinger Award for Outstanding Contributions to Motorsports presented by the International Motor Racing Research Center. Childress, who drove in 285 races in NASCAR’s premier series before turning to team ownership, recorded several season championships with Dale Earnhardt driving his #3 car. The late Cameron Argetsinger conceived of and organized the first road racing in Watkins Glen — in what would become the Watkins Glen Grand Prix. Previous winners of the award have included Chip Ganassi, Richard Petty, Roger Penske, Mario Andretti, The France Family, Bobby Rahal, Lyn St. James and Mike Helton. The emcee for Friday night’s event, as in past years, was Dr. Jerry Punch, who concluded the ceremony by interviewing Childress on stage about the latter’s storied career.

The fastest-off-the line production Corvette combines a naturally aspirated V8 with all-electric front-wheel propulsion—and redefines what it feels like to drive a ’Vette, writes Dan Neil.

https://www.thedrive.com/news/indy-500-tells-f1-theres-legally-only-one-greatest-spectacle-in-racing

This may bother some of you, but the greatest spectacle in racing isn’t the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix, NASCAR’s Daytona 500, or the 24 Hours of Le Mans. I’ve attended all of them, and the Indy 500 has them beat in terms of atmosphere and pure significance. (Le Mans is the only one that comes close.) But it doesn’t matter how I feel about it, because the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing” slogan is trademarked by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and has been since 1986.

Despite this, F1, NASCAR, ESPN, and even LL Cool J (yes, really) have all been dropping those same words during recent live TV coverage, marketing material, and in the case of the famous rapper, the opening of the Miami F1 GP—which, by the way, is far from being the greatest spectacle in racing. Indianapolis Motor Speedway management isn’t happy about this, of course, and has had to remind them about their protected trademark.
