Joey Logano passed Kyle Larson on the closing laps to win a wild Sprint All-Star Race and it's $1 million prize on Saturday night at Charlotte Motor Speedway.  Logano held off his teammate Brad Keselowski after Larson got loose and made contact with the wall while racing hard for the lead. No Sprint Cup points were on the line, but you can bet the cool million bucks awarded to the winner are a sufficient prize. The night was dominated by new rules introduced by NASCAR to jazz up the event and provide more excitement. The intent was good, but the interpretations of the rules left many drivers and teams angry and confused.  Those rules included mandatory green-flag pit stops during each segment and a random drawing between Segments ...

Trevor Bayne, Greg Biffle and Kyle Larson punched their tickets to Saturday night's Sprint All-Star Race with exciting wins in Saturday afternoon's Sprint Showdown at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Shortly after becoming the youngest-ever winner of a Formula One race at last weekend's Spanish Grand Prix, Max Verstappen had plenty of thanks to dish out. First and foremost to Red Bull Racing, who had provided him with "such a great car to win straight away" in his debut race for the team, as he told the post-race FIA press conference. Then to his mother Sophie, who "did a very good job" by bringing him "into the world" to begin with, and his father Jos, who from the minute his son turned four had worked tirelessly to help him conquer it. And, last but not least, to Dr. Evil himself, whose latest plot had instantly proved to be something of a masterstroke. As noted by F1 journalist Peter Windsor, Verstappen had been ...
