Weekend Motorsport Roundup; January 19-20th, 2019-March 2024

Welcome to the Jalopnik Weekend Motorsports Roundup, where we let you know what’s going on in the world of racing, where you can see it, and where you can talk about it all in one convenient place. Where else would you want to spend your weekend?

There isn’t much going on in the world of motorsport this weekend. The Race of Champions happened already, and now we’re just waiting for the Daytona 24 action to kick off.

After focusing on the hot and heavy action of the Dakar Rally, things are shifting this weekend to the icy cold of Zell am See, Austria. The race, conducted completely on ice, began in 1937 and ended in 1974. This weekend the race returns as an exhibition event.

It looks as though the event is largely populated by historic and modern racing vehicles from the VW group, including Audi Sport’s Formula E car, and Ferry Porsche’s personal 550 Spyder, though other brands are represented as well. Over 130 participants will drift around the 600-meter ice course. Among those participants, Hans Stuck, Mark Webber, and Walter Röhrl.

Zell am See, Austria

Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear that this event is covered live on television or streaming service anywhere, but it is likely that racers and OEMs alike will be posting video of their runs to social media. Check out , or .

Porsche Takes Pole At Everybody's Home Race, The 6 Hours Of Nürburgring
Porsche Takes Pole At Everybody's Home Race, The 6 Hours Of Nürburgring
All three LMP1-H class teams in the World Endurance Championship can lay claim to the Nürburgring as their home race, yet it’s Porsche who’ll be starting on pole. The LMP1 results looked much like how the season itself is going right now: two Porsches out in front, then two Audis,...

The Nürburgring Nordschleife Is Not That Scary
The Nürburgring Nordschleife Is Not That Scary
I always overestimate how terrifying something I want to do is going to be before I actually do it. It’s probably for the best, but kind of annoying, nonetheless. These feelings of impending doom were a million times worse with the Nordschleife, given its reputation for eating n00bs. Guess what?...

Porsche vs. Tim Hortons: The Definitive Comparo No One Asked For
Those of you who’ve been around this blog for quite some time know that I love donuts: both the as well as . Look at this irresistable little pink-frosted donut from the 6 Hours of Nürburgring. Look, and weep. So, who does them better: Tim Hortons or Porsche? [Full disclosure:...

Up extra late? There’s some Super GT racing going on at Suzuka right now, complete with full English commentary running. They’re about a third of the way in right now, but in case you missed the start—watching insanely modified Japanese race cars have at it is clearly worth losing some...

Nürburgring Legends = Maximum Bruce
Nürburgring Legends = Maximum Bruce
Feel the Bruce. . Roast marshmallows off the back of the Bruce. There were other cars in the Nürburgring Legends race that weren’t Porsches, or even German, but none quite expelled flames through the sheer force of Bruce like this Porsche 935 K3. Follow Jalopnik on Instagram: . Contact the...
