One of the greatest sensations in motorsport is taking in the incredible sounds of racing cars – recently we asked for your favourite sounding motorsport machines and you gave us even more awesome suggestions

In motorsport, things can change pretty quickly. You can be running well but a mistake on the final lap could prove costly - we’ve certainly seen it many times before

Formula E burst onto the scene as a new, electric single-seater series with an eye on the future – it’s not being seen as a threat to Formula 1 just yet but how do the cars for both championships compare?

Sebastian Vettel appeared to think the German GP lasted 66 laps and slowed down, only to realise there was still one lap left to go until the chequered flag – amazingly he didn’t lose any places

In recent years we have seen the introduction of many new Formula 1 rules, but the series hasn’t made itself look particularly good by adding new regulations and then swiftly getting rid of them

Mercedes has done the best job with the current regulations since they were introduced in 2014, but someone’s taken a look at what the F1 2016 season so far would look like without the Silver Arrows - it's pretty fascinating!

Hunter Abbott’s BTCC Chevrolet was clipped into a barrel-roll at the start of the third Snetterton race and launched over the barrier, hitting a camera tower – fortunately the cameraman and drivers involved are OK

British racing driver Tom Onslow-Cole shared this incredible clip from the early stages of the Spa 24 Hours, with 58 GT cars speeding past him on the run downhill and up the famous Eau Rouge. So turn up the volume and enjoy!

F1 has changed at an incredible rate since the first season in 1950, and the tracks have also transformed too...

Fernando Martino was racing a Renault Clio in a TS 1800 Santafesino race at the Argentinian Autódromo Ciudad de Paraná circuit when contact with a rival sent him into a scary roll, flipping 11 times – fortunately he appears to be OK

Formula 1 returns to the Hockenheimring this weekend, but the track is a shadow of its former self – the old layout was fast, bonkers and completely unique, which is why we miss it so much

Robbie Brewer in the No.68 and John Holloman in his No.4 got into the race car equivalent of a first fight at the Bowman Gray circuit during a recent Sportsman (yes, that’s really what it’s called) race, turning it into a demolition derby after as tempers flared

In case you didn’t know, the 24 Hours of Le Mans is very old and the cars that have taken victory at the famous race have changed a hell of a lot since the inaugural event in 1923 – this video goes through the evolution of the machinery that has succeeded at Le Mans

The FIA World Endurance Championship never fails to disappoint. We were treated to a brilliant 6 Hours of Nurburgring race today - here are all the best bits
