<\/a>Norris met Indy 500 winner Rosenqvist<\/p>\nNorris pays a visit to Indianapolis Motor Speedway (Racer)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘I don’t want to say no. I certainly want to try things outside of Formula 1. I’m a racing fan. I love Formula 1 more than anything, but at the same time, I love everything. I love bikes, I love rally, I love IndyCar, I love just all racing in general. So, whether it is the Indy 500 or just IndyCar in general, I know that Indy 500 is the one, and obviously it’s part of the Triple Crown for McLaren as well, so I won Monaco, which is, you know, part one done.’<\/p>\n ‘500’ purse soars to new record, increases by more than 50 percent (IndyCar)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘The Indianapolis 500 purse record was broken for the fifth consecutive year for the 110th Indianapolis 500, with first-time winner Felix Rosenqvist of Meyer Shank Racing w\/Curb Agajanian earning a record-high $4.34 million from a total purse of $30,906,400.’<\/p>\n Hamilton (Instagram)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘I could not be more proud of my brother Nicolas Hamilton. Seeing the passion and emotion on his face as he stood on his first podium was such a beautiful moment. For us both to be on podiums on the same day was a major. I called him the second the race ended. Motorsport is not built to be inclusive. There is little to no access for people with disabilities, and no support systems to level the playing field. This is something so many take for granted. Despite that, despite the barriers and the people who told him it wasn\u2019t possible, he never stopped. He fought. He adapted. He proved them wrong. While he will always be my kid brother, I am profoundly proud of the leader, the athlete, and the man he has become. He inspires me just as much as he inspires everyone watching his journey. No matter how hard it has been he has never given up. What he\u2019s achieved is massive and I\u2019m so happy for him. Love you bro, keep going.’<\/p>\n Hamilton finished 17th, 16th and 16th across the BTCC\u2019s three races in Snetterton last weekend, scoring one point. He won the Jack Sears Trophy, which is awarded to the top-scoring driver of the weekend who did not have a podium finish at the start of the season and had not previously won the trophy. In the third round of the season, Hamilton is the third different winner of the trophy, leaving only one other driver capable of winning it over the rest of the season.<\/p>\n Brawn teams up with Pramac MotoGP team as strategic advisor (Reuters)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘Motorsport has always been about people, teamwork and continuous improvement, and I look forward to supporting (principal) Paolo (Campinoti) and the team and contributing where my experience may be useful,’ he said.’<\/p>\n Helmet worn by Canadian F1 great Gilles Villeneuve sells for record US$1.25m (CBC)<\/a><\/p>\n ‘Darren Jack, president and CEO of Hall of Fame Collection based in Burlington, Ont., said his company brokered the sale for the world-record price, exceeding the previous mark of \u00a3720,000 (then $966,449 US) set by Ayrton Senna’s helmet from the 1992 Belgian Grand Prix, sold last year.’<\/p>\n RaceFans always endeavours to credit original sources.
