Racing Resources
For those of you out there who thirst for news and information about the karting and auto racing world, rest assured that there are tons of resources on the Internet to satisfy your cravings, from informational sites to professional magazines, to the websites of the most authoritative organizations in the international racing world. Below is a list, compiled for your convenience, of some of the most useful kart and auto racing resources online:
Probably the most authoritative institution in the world of racing, including karting, stock car racing, Formula One, and many other forms, is FIA – Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile. This international organization is the most important sanctioning body and standard-setter when it comes to motorsports. The official website of Formula One (also known as Formula 1, or F1), arguably the most prestigious form of auto racing today, can be found here, and if you’re looking for first-hand Formula 1 information, you’re guaranteed to find it there. If you’re interested in American-style stock car racing, look no further than the official website of NASCAR, the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, which is the largest and most authoritative organization for stock car racing in the United States and worldwide. If you’re a karting fan, you can also check out the World Karting Association website (which is U.S.-based), the Motor Sports Association (in the United Kingdom), or the International Kart Federation.
If you’re looking for professional racing magazines and news sites, there’s plenty of those on the Internet as well, including the comprehensive, UK-based Autosport, Grandprix.com for excellent Formula One news, Motorsport.com, or the more U.S.-focused Stock Car Racing magazine.
