A packed weekend on the racing calendar

The Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix will take place this weekend at the Hungaroring in Budapest, with practice sessions kicking off on Friday, July 24 and the main race scheduled for Sunday, July 26. In the United States, Apple TV has become the new broadcaster of the sport, offering live coverage through its platform, while F1 TV Pro provides international viewers with a dedicated feed.

Current standings see Kimi Antonelli at the top with 204 points, followed closely by Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, who are shaping the early season narrative. The trio’s performances add extra intrigue to the upcoming race, as fans watch whether the young Italian can extend his lead.

On the NASCAR side, the Brickyard 400 is set for Sunday, July 26 at the historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Denny Hamlin tops the Cup Series standings with 842 points and four victories already this year, positioning him as a favorite on the 2.5‑mile oval.

While the premier series are in action, other championships are taking a breather. MotoGP will not race this weekend and returns on August 7‑9 for the Great Britain round, IndyCar’s next event will be in Portland on August 9, IMSA’s WeatherTech Championship resumes at Road America from July 30 to August 2, and the World Endurance Championship will reconvene in September for the Lone Star Le Mans at COTA.

The weekend thus offers a global showcase of motorsport, from the high‑speed streets of Budapest to the storied banks of Indianapolis, with broadcast partners and championship leaders all eyes on the upcoming showdowns.
