Nationwide Atlanta
NASCAR - Atlanta: One thing missing from AUTOSPORT Race Centre Live this weekend is the NASCAR Sprint Cup, as its main events at Atlanta all take place during the European night.

Josef Newgarden
IndyCar - Baltimore: Josef Newgarden goes to P1.
He's looking really good this weekend, and is super-brave through the chicane. Indeed, he said yesterday that it's the only part of the track that he's actually quick on.
Given that he qualified on the third row, he might be underselling himself a bit.
Checkered flag
IndyCar - Baltimore: Both Sebastien Bourdais and Will Power improve on Newgarden's time on their final lap, and the session ends with Bourdais on top.
