Good to be at Donington Park for first round of the BTCC support series. Stop/start for the Minis, though, with three red flags already in qualifying...

Very disappointing news. I've argued against the rule change on the basis that it's impossible to police fairly, consistently and accurately. But, putting that to one side, changing the rules in the middle of the year is just utterly baffling

The grandstands are absolutely packed at Le Mans as the start of the race approaches. The track has been declared wet - adding another variable into the mix

After Le Mans last week, it's back to the BTCC supports again now at Oulton Park for the final event before the summer break. British F4 qualifying is now under way

Two consecutive Wednesdays, two Silverstone shootouts for two of the biggest prizes in UK motorsport. Aston Martin Autosport BRDC Award last week, Porsche Carrera Cup GB Junior today

Such terribly sad news. The determination Joel showed to get back behind the wheel after his diagnosis was inspirational and my thoughts are with his family

Day 2 of the Donington Historic Festival today begins with the brilliant sight of the HRDC Gerry Marshall Trophy field heading onto the track

Wonderful to see some historic tin-tops in action at Croft alongside the BTCC. Qualifying is under way for the Classic Touring Car Racing Club's Pre-'66 machines

My first trip to Asia is under way! Had a lovely first night in Macau - what an incredible place it is - and have now just completed a walk of most of the distinctly damp (how British!) track

It's rained every day in Macau since Wednesday, but nothing like the deluge we've had this morning. The TCR World Tour Guia race has been postponed indefinitely. Supposedly, things will brighten up this afternoon - but then again it wasn't meant to rain today...

Well this is a bit of a shock to the system: arriving back from Macau to snow and an over 25-degree temperature drop! Even though there were some poor driving standards, what an incredible event the Macau weekend is, in an incredible setting

Narrowing down the 39 TOCA support champions to a final top 10 of the past decade was a tricky, but fun, task for one of the final weekly editions of the mag. Doing so reminded me of some incredible performances from over the years! Here's a slightly longer online version

Always nice to arrive at a circuit and find a new vantage point. Here's a different view of Thruxton's Club chicane from the Woodham Hill viewing area

Three weekends, three very different tracks, three great vantage points. Two of them were new to me - Woodham Hill at Thruxton and the Goodyear blimp at Le Mans! - plus an old favourite (Cascades at Oulton)
