It should be noted that Edgar Canet, the day’s Rally 2 winner, achieved the same time as Branch and is in third in the overall rankings for the bikes.

This Baja 400 was crazy! Toby and I fought for first place all day long! And it all came down to the final miles! Winning on National Holiday weekend, on my dad's birthday, made the victory even more special!

Holy f*cking crap!
After 22 of 24 Formula 1 races in the 2025 the World-championship got more exciting.
McLaren drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri have been disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix for illegal plank wear, propelling Max Verstappen right back into the drivers' title fight.

F1's rulebook states the thickness of the planks underneath both cars must be no less than 9mm, but McLaren's two cars were found to be below that after Saturday night's race.

We have a new title winner!
Lando Norris is there. A terrific 2025 season ends with McLaren to celebrate their first drivers' championship since Lewis Hamilton was a young pup in 2008.

Rallye OLA Energy du Maroc - Stage 1
After four third-place finishes in the Rallye OLA Energy du Maroc, including last season, Ricky Brabec (Monster Energy Honda HRC) wants to turn bronze into gold. The Monster Energy Honda HRC rider drew first blood in his duel with the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing posse, rolling into Zagora with 23 seconds to spare over Daniel Sanders, 44 over Edgar Canet and 1′53″ over Luciano Benavides.

Guy Botterill (Toyota Gazoo Racing SA), Carlos Sainz (Ford Racing), Guillaume de Mévius (X-Raid Mini) and Mathieu Serradori (Century Factory Racing) played a game of musical chairs in a closely fought stage. Yet it was João Ferreira (Toyota Gazoo Racing SA) who emerged victorious from the mad dash to the line, romping home with just 3 seconds to spare over Lucas Moraes and his Dacia.
