Jim was a leader of a small, passionate group who believed in the concept of bringing elite open-wheel competition to Long Beach in the 1970s. His vision and energy surrounding this great event remained boundless for 50 years.

When Kayleigh (Kayls) Cole came downstairs on Christmas morning 2016, she was wearing her dad's rigger boots. She shuffled out to the shed in the dark, and there it was, wrapped in paper, unmistakable. A go-kart. Nine years later, she is one grid spot away from making Irish motorsport history.

We're using Formula 1 on Apple TV to show exactly how the extreme research and development tested in the world's harshest racing environments translates directly to the consumer. That's not a marketing line. It's absolutely real, drawing a line between Ford racing vehicles and the tech inside vehicles like the F-150 Raptor, Bronco Raptor and the new EV electric truck that's on its way.

Brooklands was built in the Surrey countryside and was the brainchild of Hugh and Ethel Fortescue Locke King. When it opened in 1907, it was the world's first purpose-built, banked motor racing circuit. With road racing banned on the British mainland, it quickly became the country's motorsport capital, as well as home to equally intrepid early aviators.

We've been involved with the business for five years now. It's an incredible brand with lots of legacy and great values, and there's a long-term plan here. That was supported by two things last year: Carlos joining us, who obviously saw the opportunity when it came to wanting to win; and finishing fifth. And that just supported our story of going back to the top.

In the short term, expectations are brutally realistic, but this is still a team intent on making noise from day one. That intent will be made clear when Cadillac unveils the livery of its first F1 car during a Super Bowl commercial Sunday. Such a move is a statement and arrival aimed as much at mainstream America as at a paddock that, for years, questioned whether the brand belonged on the grid at all.

Today is Tuesday, Feb. 17, the 48th day of 2026. There are 317 days left in the year. Today in history: On Feb. 17, 2013, Danica Patrick won the Daytona 500 pole, becoming the first woman to secure the top spot for any Sprint Cup race. Also on this date: In 1801, the U.S. House of Representatives broke an electoral tie between Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr, electing Jefferson president; Burr became vice president.

Despite its location on River North's most notorious nightlife strip, Theory offers an elevated sports bar experience for serious fans who still want to have fun. One of the few Chicago bars to open in the early-morning hours to broadcast overseas F1 races, it's regularly packed with dedicated fans who come for the sports and stay for the top-tier food and drinks.

While most modern competitions recruit riders with similar skillsets and design courses to suit them, Natural Selection flips the script. By drawing riders from a wide range of backgrounds, NST creates a format that values creativity and individuality as much as technical execution. It is one of the few competitions where the structure of the contest comes secondary to the riders themselves.

Promising to bring high‑performance, low‑latency networking to one of the world's most demanding, data‑driven sports environments, Ruckus Networks has entered an agreement to be the Official Networking Partner of the TGR Haas F1 Team.

"F1 sits at the intersection of sports, innovation and culture, and the fan engagement is evolving quickly with even more energy than ever," says Eddy Cue, Apple's senior VP of services.
