IZOD IndyCar Series - Indianapolis 500 Preview
What a turnaround it has been for A.J. Allmendinger during the past 10 months.
The nine starting positions that remained for the May 26 Indianapolis 500 were determined during Sunday's "Bump Day" at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Fernando Alonso from Ferrari scored a hugely-popular victory in front of his home crowd by putting on a dominating performance in Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix.
Nico Rosberg won the pole for Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix, while his teammate, Lewis Hamilton, qualified second to give Mercedes the front row.
Maldonado scored his maiden F1 victory in the Spanish GP. He also became the first Venezuelan driver in the sport to win a race.
James Hinchcliffe won his second race of the season after passing Takuma Sato in the final turn of the last lap in Sunday's IndyCar Series race on the streets of Sao Paulo.
Ryan Hunter-Reay will start on the pole for Sunday's IndyCar Series race in Brazil after setting a new track qualifying record on the Sao Paulo street circuit.
When the series first raced on the 2.536-mile, 11-turn Sao Paulo street circuit in 2010, Power survived a spectacular opening-lap crash and then endured heavy rain before making a winning pass on Ryan Hunter-Reay in the closing minutes for the win. The race was scheduled for 75 laps, but IndyCar officials placed a two-hour limit on the event due to numerous cautions for accidents and a brief halt for a thunderstorm.
Nico Rosberg from Mercedes will start on the pole for the Bahrain Grand Prix after topping Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel in Saturday's qualifying.
Dario Franchitti finally has something to cheer about this season.
With podium finishes in the first two races this year -- second at St. Pete and third at Barber -- Helio Castroneves holds a nine-point lead over Scott Dixon, who has a pair of top-five finishes. At this point of the season last year, Castroneves held a two-point advantage over Dixon.
Alonso won the Bahrain GP in consecutive seasons from 2005-06 when he drove for Renault. His most recent victory there came three years ago when he made his maiden start for Ferrari. Bahrain was the 2010 season-opener for F1.
Fernando Alonso from Ferrari ended a 12- race winless streak in Formula One by taking Sunday's Chinese Grand Prix.
Lewis Hamilton claimed his first pole as a Mercedes driver by winning Saturday's qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix.
