Welcome to the Lovecars on the Grid podcast! Our hosts, Tiff Needell and Paul Woodman brings us a roundup of motorsport events from a packed week, from Lando Norris's Formula 1 win at Silverstone, shocking results in Indycar, NASCAR & more.

In the motorsport news, Mohammed Ben Sulayem, the president of the FIA has been challenged by Tim Mayer for the FIA Presidency.

Formula 1

It was a record weekend at the British Formula 1 Grand Prix at Silverstone, with over 500,000 spectators. McLaren's Oscar Piastri looked unbeatable after overtaking pole sitter Max Verstappen's Red Bull car. Teams were forced to rethink tyre strategies due to the ever-changeable weather at Silverstone.

During the 2nd safety car, Verstappen was forced to overtake Piastri, following the Australian driver braking heavily at the front of the pack, unnecessarily. Piastri received a 10 second penalty, which resulted in a 2nd place finish.

Verstappen later had a spin due to the poor grip, giving Britain's Lando Norris a 1st place finish. Elsewhere, Lewis Hamilton was battling Nico Hulkenburg for 3rd place, but it was Hulkenburg that brought home the 3rd place for Sauber, and his first podium of his career after a whopping 239 races.

Indycar

The Indycar drivers were racing at mid Ohio, where Alex Palou looked favourite to win, but was pipped by Scott Dixon

NASCAR

The NASCAR drivers were in Chicago, where Shane van Gisbergen took the win from his team mate following the restart from a safety car, putting his team mate into the wall.

British Superbikes

BSB were at Knockhill in Scotland, where favourite Bradley Ray was finally beaten by Rory Skinner in race 3 on his Ducati. Ray was able to win both Race 1 and 2.

The biggest question this week, is who will take the Mercedes seat next year? Elsewhere, McLaren have been bought by CYVN Holdings, based in Abu Dhabi.

Hyundai were triumphant in Acropolis, Greece in WRC, where other teams were plagued by punctures.

In MotoGP, the riders were at Assen in the Netherlands, where the Marquez brothers dominated again.
