Long Live Monaco

Long Live Monaco

Monaco. It is a race that has to be seen to be believed. Even when the racing action is less than exhilarating, Monaco is a magical place to watch racing cars. I am more than well aware that I have the best access that even money itself cannot buy. But even for the average fan watching from one of the countless balconies or grandstands that cover Monte Carlo, and even more so for those watching on TV and seeing those heart pounding onboard clips of today’s drivers throwing a

12 Hours of Sunscreen

10:15pm on Saturday March 15. The fireworks explode overhead in the night sky. The first 12 hours of Sebring of a truly new American sports car era has ended. And it was a strange one. Look down the pit lane at Sebring and you’ll see the name of the winning manufacturer from each year hanging on the pit lane building. Names like Porsche, Peugeot, Ferrari, Nissan, Audi, Audi, Audi, Audi look out over the iconic track…..and now, A Ford EcoBoost Daytona Prototype hangs with them

Memories from 2013

What a year 2013 has been. The highlights? Sebastian Loeb’s mesmerizing Pikes Peak run will certainly be something I tell my grand children (or anyone else who will listen) I was there to see, and hear, in person. Formula One in Singapore certainly stands up at the top as well. It is a city and race venue that has to be seen to be believed. NASCAR roaring around the tight oval at Martinsville. Indycar’s turbo madness bouncing around the confining walls of St. Petersburg’s str

The Last Song

The Last Song

I’ll remember it for as long as I live. I was 18 years old and my dad and I were attending our first Formula One race in the flesh. We arrived at Indianapolis motor speedway just prior to the start of free practice 1 on Friday in 2005. Walking up the tall metal stairs on back side of the enormous grandstand, I heard it for the first time. The sound was a screaming V10 engine off in the distance. A high pitched wail that was quickly getting louder, and sharper with each passin

NASCAR’s Gladiators

NASCAR’s Gladiators

NASCAR fans are absolutely rabid for any amount of interaction they can get with their heroes & their villains on the banked tarmac ovals. These motorsport gladiators travel from one sleepy town to the next, week in and week out for much of the year, all for the sake of entertaining the common man. NASCAR puts on a show. Of that there is no doubt. But it’s easy to forget that there are people behind the visor and behind the sponsor decals. As I’ve done more work in NASCAR, I’

Master of Martinsville

Master of Martinsville

In motorsport, there are a few names that assert absolute dominance. It’s not always fair, it’s not always easy to like them. But they are on top, and consistently so. Jimmie Johnson is definitely among them. And nestled in the rural plains of southern Virginia, not far from the North Carolina border, is one of the few tracks where Johnson is usually his most dominant. Martinsville dates all the way back to the sport’s earliest races. NASCAR in this region is steeped in histo

Pictures of the Year 2012

What an incredible and completely wild ride 2012 has been. Where do I even begin to sum it all up? Four Indycar races; Two Grand Am races; Three NASCAR races; Two ALMS races; Four days of Formula One testing in Barcelona; the inaugural United States Grand Prix in Austin; the 24 Hours of Le Mans; a two week trip to England covering five racing series at three different tracks; the Kentucky Derby; 12 days in Colorado for Pikes Peak International Hill Climb; the Harry Miller Clu

15é Puh-tee-leh-maw

It’s 3:40 in the afternoon and I’m strolling down the long, fast backstretch at Road Atlanta, approximately 4 hours into the 10 hour endurance race called Petit Le Mans (little le mans). I think this must be heaven. Cars are roaring by just feet away making a symphony of different sounds. The smell of food from fans charcoal grilling trackside delicacies outside their campsites is mixing with the distinct aroma of racing engines at speed. The weather is perfect; Cloudless and

Two Supercars That Turn Heads

Two Supercars That Turn Heads

There are cars. Then there are cars. And then there are the kind of cars that turn heads no matter who you are and what you know about automobiles. I received an email asking if I would photograph two automobiles heading for auction in California this summer. After agreeing, the auction house told me which two cars I would be photographing for them, and needless to say, my mouth actually fell open upon reading. These two cars are in some very rare air in the automotive world.

10 Long Hours: Petit Le Mans 2011

10 Long Hours: Petit Le Mans 2011

Road Atlanta, a gorgeous circuit in the rolling hills North of Atlanta played host to the biggest and best sports car teams from around the world for the 14th annual running of Petit Le Mans on October 1, 2011. The rivalry between the factory Peugeot and Audi teams is one that every race fan knows well. They respect each other, but do not like one another. When these two goliaths meet, you know on track fireworks will be shortly behind. Sports car racing is a test of enduranc
