- SportsCar365.com is reporting that Andrew Wojteczko Autosport's Orey Fidani will miss Saturday's IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge Mid-Ohio 120 due to Fidani expecting the birth of his child.  He will be replaced by Chris Green, who has raced in the series in the past for Motorsports In Action.

- Pietro Fittipaldi has resigned from his role with G-Drive Racing in the European Le Mans Series, effective immediately.  Fittipaldi is finding it too difficult to juggle his responsibilities in sports car racing with similar responsibilities in open-wheel racing.

Fittipaldi drove G-Drive Racing's No. 25 Aurus 01-Gibson in the ELMS season-opening 4 Hours of Barcelona alongside Rui Andrade and John Falb.  (Note: The Aurus 01 is a rebadged ORECA 07; Aurus is a Russian manufacturer and G-Drive Racing is a Russian branding).  The trio ultimately finished seventh in class.  Former Marussia F1 driver Roberto Merhi has been tapped to replace Fittipaldi.

- The Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series announced Wednesday that their races this weekend at 411 Motor Speedway in Seymour, Tenn., and the Talladega Short Track in Lincoln, Ala. have been cancelled due to the effects of the cyberattack on the Colonial Pipeline and the resulting fuel shortages throughout the Southeastern United States.  They will not be made up.

"It’ll be a little bit different format. I’ll kind of be my engineer on my own truck, so to speak. And so I’ll be building sim models and running simulation and doing the simulator. It’ll be a cool story and something different and something I’m really looking forward to.

"I don’t have a degree, but I’m learning a lot from all the engineers here at ThorSport and they’re helping me build these models and understand everything.  I’m able to take some of that knowledge that I gained running in the Truck Series last year and apply some of those things to these trucks here this year. - Ty Majeski, on not just driving his limited schedule for ThorSport Racing, but working in the shop for the team.
