Trevor Bayne making NASCAR return with Niece Motorsports (NASCAR Trucks)
Less than half a year from the 10th anniversary of his shock Daytona 500 win, former NASCAR Cup Series competitor Trevor Bayne is set to make his first NASCAR start since 2018 in the Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series.
Niece Motorsports announced Monday that Bayne will pilot the No. 40 Chevrolet with sponsor support from Plan B Sales and Proceller8. It will be his first start in NASCAR’s third tour, and his first run in any NASCAR series since the fall 2018 Texas Motor Speedway race where he made his final Cup run with Roush Fenway Racing.
“After almost two years of being out of the seat, I’m so excited and grateful for another chance to go racing,” said Bayne. “The call from Niece Motorsports to get back behind the wheel at Darlington was unexpected and came together really fast. They have a great group and a lot of potential with their program. I’m looking forward to working with everyone there and going back racing this weekend!”
The Truck race will be something of a Roush reunion, with former RFR drivers Greg Biffle and David Ragan also scheduled to compete. Biffle will compete for GMS Racing, with Ragan competing for DGR-Crosley.
P2: Teams concerned over KTM ‘super engine’ (MotoGP)
With fall quickly approaching, MotoGP teams have begun to set their sights on the 2021 season. Many manufacturers are nervous about KTM and what could be a “super engine” that is utilized next year.
KTM and Aprilia are permitted by current regulations to be exempt from the engine development freeze currently seen on Honda, Yamaha, Ducati and Suzuki, though all manufacturers agreed to a freeze on development in the wake the of COVID-19 pandemic.
All teams appeared to be observing the freeze, but Motorsport has since reported that KTM will be allowed to develop its engines for next year after losing its results-based concessions following wins by Brad Binder and Miguel Oliveria. A source told the outlet that “we believe that KTM is preparing a super engine for 2021. “Unlike the rest, they are going to be able to open and touch up the engine without any limitation. In fact, they can make it (a) whole (new one) if they want.”
KTM was already in a different position than most manufacturers, with the original MSMA proposal allowing the team to utilize two extra engines heading into 2021 after it raised concerns about the durability of its current engine designs. That news, mixed with the current rumors of the team’s work toward 2021, have soured opinions of KTM within the paddock.
: Spyker set for potential sports car return (Sports Cars)
Former FIA World Endurance Championship competitors SMP Racing and Spyker Ltd. are working on a “far reaching collaboration” that will reportedly see the entities participate in sports car racing.
Spyker has been quiet since its 2014 bankruptcy, but with the collaboration of SMP founder Boris Rotenberg, Milan Morady SA’s Michail Pessis and R-Company GmbH, the group plan to launch three road car models that includes the Spyker C8 Preliator.
One intention with the move is reportedly to make Spyker an “important player” in the super-sports car world, giving the brand its first return to sports car racing since a 2010 campaign in the European Le Mans Series and 24 Hours of Le Mans.
“Since Boris Rotenberg and I ordered our first Spyker almost a decade ago we passionately fell in love with the beauty and craftsmanship of these hand-built sports cars,” Pessis said. “As of 2015 the cooperation with Spyker intensified through Milan Morady which now culminates in the collaboration agreement announced today.
“Moreover BR Engineering and Milan Morady have for the past few years already been involved in the development and production of a number of Spyker C8 Ailerons in so-called Limited Edition BR configuration in our German facilities.”
Time will tell if these plans come to fruition. But if they do, Spyker and SMP appear poised to work together on competition in the “international race arena.”
SMP Racing currently competes in GT World Challenge Europe with a Ferrari 488 GT3

Fast Fact:
In most NASCAR races you can find your likely winner near the front of the field, but Darlington Raceway can be a bit different. Only two drivers have won from starting sports inside of the top-five in the past 15 years - Jimmie Johnson from second in 2012 and Kevin Harvick from pole in 2014.
