#Race Results
This week in Race Results · updated Mon Sep 21 2026
This week in motorsport, two major narratives emerged. The World Rally Championship announced its 2026 finale will shift from Saudi Arabia to Sardinia, Italy, citing regional instability, with the season trimmed to 13 rounds while Jeddah remains on the Middle East calendar. Elfyn Evans carries a 17-point lead into that decisive event. Meanwhile, in Formula 1, Lando Norris lost a potential Spanish Grand Prix victory when a Virtual Safety Car period ended just before his pit stop, dropping him to sixth before recovering to third. Kimi Antonelli capitalized to win and extend his championship lead, leaving Norris to rue the timing.
AI-written weekly briefing drawn from this topic's recent stories.
