I’ve admitted on more than one podcast that I was completely wrong about Renault. I thought they would stumble through the season at best and by this point in the season we’d have nothing to talk about except how great they use to be, how soon Carlos Ghosn would be knocking at the door, and [...]

It is what some believe is the only thing that has held Lewis Hamilton back from dominating the championship this year. It [...]

In today’s continuing run of “nothing too shocking coming from Maranello,” we have Fernando Alonso recapping his race that wasn’t at the Belgium Grand Prix. Short version. Let’s get to Monza! And it’s hard to blame him. Coming to the Tifosi’s home for the first time as a Ferrari pilot will be something. (I can [...]

Christian Estrosi, the current French Minister of Industry and Mayor of Nice, not only loves motorcycles (which is unusual for politicians), but he actually used to race them professionally, most notably in the MotoGP world.
He never won a MotoGP race, but did end up 2nd in the Bol d’Or, and even raced last year in the Legends race.
Now that’s a Minister/politician after my own heart!

Back in May, Ford showed off the first of what will likely be many special edition Mustangs based on the 2011 model: the DUB Edition Package. Available on the Mustang V6, the DUB Edition features an assortment of Roush aero components, a Ford Accessories hood scoop, stripe package, lowering springs, 3:31 gears, DUB-embroidered headrests and, of course, 20-inch TIS wheels with Pirelli tires.
Starting next week, the DUB Mustang will be available at Ford dealers across United States and Canada, kicked off by a launch party at Galpin Ford in Van Nuys, CA this weekend. Pricing has also been announced for the package, which carries an MSRP of $3,599.00 plus an additional $100 for shipping. DUB says that its contract calls for at least 1,000 of the limited edition pony cars to be built through 2012, with the possibility of a V8 version being added in the future.
