Race plan straightforward says Horner

Christian Horner says Sunday's race will be straighforward for the Red Bull team, following Sebastian Vettel's pole position and Mark Webber's fifth place in qualifying today. Webber was the team's best chance of winning the title at the beginning of the weekend, but with Vettel on pole and championship leader Fernando Alonso third, Webber now faces an uphill task to overcome his rivals. But Horner says what is required of his two drivers tomorrow is quite simple

Two NASCAR Fans Injured by Flying Debris at Texas

Filed under: , , ,

A brake pad came loose from a race car Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway and flew eight stories into the air before smashing through a window of the exclusive Speedway Club, injuring two fans.

The incident occurred just after the NASCAR Sprint Cup race ended. Speedway spokesman Mike Zizzo told the Associated Press that the injuries weren't life threatening.

Zizzo said he couldn't release any additional information on the injured fans because of federal privacy laws.

CBS 11 News in Dallas-Fort Worth reported that witnesses said a brake pad from the No. 77 Dodge driven by Sam Hornish Jr. flew off the car and smashed through the window. "Everyone thought it was a gunshot," eyewitness Linda Gregoire told the television station. "It scared the thunder out of us."

Title outcome still unknown says Webber

Mark Webber says the outcome of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix remains 'impossible to predict' despite title rival Fernando Alonso edging closer to the championship with a top-three grid slot. Alonso would take the title if the race finishes in grid order on Sunday - which means the man under pressure to move up the order is Webber, who could manage no better than fifth in qualifying following a disappointing session
