Motorsport Diary: Kiwis racing overseas this weekend

The weekend has arrived, and we’re straight into it this week with Southland’s Alex Crosbie beginning his F4 US Championship season-finale with qualifying at 6.50 am on Friday morning. Crosbie will race three times at Circuit of the Americas.

Shane van Gisbergen is set for another busy weekend in NASCAR, running double duties at Martinsville, where he finished an impressive 11th earlier this year.

Then, of course, Liam Lawson makes his third Grand Prix start of the season in Brazil.

In Bahrain, Brendon Hartley and Earl Bamber wrap up their World Endurance Championship campaigns with the 8 Hours of Bahrain. Both are out of Driver’s Championship contention, although Hartley’s Toyota team are only 10 points behind Porsche in the Manufacturers’ Championship.

There’s plenty of racing to enjoy this weekend, so sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
