2008 Race of Champions

It's a bit late in the day we know, but finally we've secured a source of hospitality for the 2008 Race of Champions at Wembley Stadium for Sunday 14th December.

Highlight for this year will be a race between F1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton and Olympic Gold Medalist Chris Hoy - very definitely Man against Machine as they compete head to head.

It's going to be another spectacular event and very much a 'must see' - although you will have to record BBC's Sports Personality of the Year!

Silverstone update

News from Silverstone - not only are ticket sales for the 2009 Santander British Grand Prix going great (4 grandstands sold out already too) but the Brooklands Restaurant hospitality is sold out for race day and is approaching that level for Saturday too!

Just proves that if you want hospitality it's time to book!

F1 Calendar reshuffle

Autosport are reporting that the World Motorsport Council have again reshuffled the 2009 Formala 1 calendar.

China has moved to sit behind Malaysia, Belgium is now before the race at Monza and the final 2 races (Brazil and Abu Dhabi) have been moved forward.

More news (and changes) as we get them!

Congratulations Lewis

In case you haven't heard, in a thrilling finale to the 2008 F1 World Championship, Lewis Hamilton finished 5th at the Brazilian Grand Prix ensuring that he was crowned Driver's World Champion - and becoming the youngest driver in history to do so.

Felipe Massa's win, combined with 3rd place for Kimi Raikkonen, confirmed Ferrari's superiority as a team - as they were (again) crowned Constructors Champions.
