Racing Tech: Explaining NASCAR’s New Skew
In case you missed it:
Formula 1 returns after a weekend off for the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. For the first time ever, Formula 2 and 3 have been flown out from Europe to join the world championship down under. IndyCar is running its first oval race of the season at Texas Motor Speedway. After going on a road course excursion last weekend in Austin, NASCAR is headed to Richmond Raceway for a short-track showdown.
Last but not least, MotoGP is heading to Argentina for the second race of 2023. Several notable names will not be competing after suffering injuries during the season opener in Portugal. Pol Espargaró had a near-fatal crash in practice. Enea Bastianini broke a shoulder blade in a crash during the championship’s inaugural sprint race.
