About Us
Racing News Today cuts through the corporate nonsense that dominates modern motorsport coverage. While other outlets regurgitate press releases and worship at the altar of team principals, we’re asking the uncomfortable questions that make PR managers sweat.
What Makes Us Different?
Simple. We don’t pretend Formula 1 is a fairy tale where everyone plays nice and the best driver always wins. We see the politics, the dodgy steward decisions, and the convenient rule interpretations for what they are. And we’re not afraid to say it.
No sugar-coating. No “both sides have a point” nonsense when one side is clearly talking rubbish. Just honest, cynical coverage from people who’ve watched this sport long enough to know when we’re being sold a story.
Our Mission (If You Can Call It That)
Entertain you. Inform you. Make you think twice about the official narrative. Whether it’s questionable FIA decisions, team orders disguised as “driver preference,” or the latest budget cap “misunderstanding,” we’re here to call it like we see it.
We love this sport. That’s precisely why we refuse to pretend its problems don’t exist.
What You’ll Find Here
Breaking news without the PR filter. Race analysis that doesn’t assume you’re stupid. Opinion pieces that actually have opinions. Technical insights that matter. And enough sarcasm to power a DRS system.
We cover Formula 1 primarily, but motorsport’s political circus extends far beyond. If there’s controversy, questionable decision-making, or corporate doublespeak in racing, we’re probably writing about it.
Join the Conversation
Agree with us? Brilliant. Think we’re talking nonsense? Even better. The comments section exists for a reason. Just keep it civil, keep it intelligent, and remember that disagreeing with our take doesn’t make you wrong. It just makes you potentially less cynical than we are.
Welcome to Racing News Today. Where the racing is real, and so is our contempt for bullshit.

Greg Ashford
Greg Ashford fell in love with F1 during the Häkkinen-Schumacher battles and has been watching the sport's slow descent into corporate theatre ever since. After years of playing nice in the paddock, Greg decided someone needs to say what everyone's thinking. He's not here to make friends with team principals or parrot press releases, he's here to tell you what's actually going on. No filter, no bullshit.

Marcus Webb
Marcus Webb was there when Formula E took its first hesitant steps in Beijing, and he's been a true believer ever since. While the rest of the paddock was still figuring out how to pronounce "regeneration," Marcus saw what electric racing could become, and he's spent the last decade championing it against the dinosaurs who think motorsport died with V10s. He's got no patience for the "it doesn't sound right" brigade or the fossil fuel romantics who can't accept that racing is evolving. Formula E's tight street racing, genuine manufacturer competition, and the fact that it's actually pushing automotive technology forward? That's the future, and Marcus is here for it. He'll call out the series' missteps (and there have been a few), but he does it because he genuinely cares about seeing electric racing succeed. When traditionalists dismiss FE as a gimmick, Marcus is the one armed with lap times, technical data, and a healthy dose of "told you so" ready to prove them wrong.
