NASCAR took Carson Hocevar's No. 77 car to the R&D Center after the Cup Series race at Darlington Raceway. Following a strong run at Darlington, the sport had a closer inspection of Hocevar's vehicle; however, did the Spire Motorsports driver receive any penalties?

Hocevar's No. 77 car had no issues at the NASCAR R&D Center, which is the best result from further inspection. In previous years, NASCAR has found issues that cost a race team and driver over 100 points and more, so Hocevar receiving the green light is excellent news.

Going into Martinsville Speedway, Hocevar sits 13th in the point standings behind Ryan Preece with 20 races left in the NASCAR regular season. The driver of the No. 77 Chevrolet for Spire Motorsports hopes to carry his momentum into Martinsville, as the Chase bubble is already a topic of conversation in 2026.

Futbol üzrə Azərbaycan millisinin hücumçusu Renat Dadaşov Polşanın “Motor” komandasının “Zaqlenbe”yə qarşı keçirdiyi oyunu buraxıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, 26 yaşlı hücumçunun komandası Polşa çempionatının 2025/2026-cı illər mövsümünün 26-cı turu çərçivəsində “Zaqlenbe” ilə qarşılaşıb.

Lyublin təmsilçisi bu rəqiblə doğma meydanda üz-üzə gəlib və 1:0 hesabıyla qalib gəlib. Renat bu görüşün iştirakçısı olmayıb. O, sarı vərəqə limitini doldurduğu üçün bu görüşü buraxı.

26 turdan sonra 37 xalı olan “Motor” hazırda Polşa çempionatının turnir cədvəlində 18 iştirakçı arasında 6-cı pillədə qərarlaşıb. Renatın komandası keçirdiyi 26 oyunda 9 qələbə qazanıb, 10 heç-heçə edib, 7 məğlubiyyətə üzülüb.

Xatırladaq ki, Dadaşov “Motor”la 2025-ci ilin yayında 1+1 illik müqaviləyə imza atıb. O, Lyublin klubunun heyətində meydana çıxdığı 17 oyunda fərqlənə bilməyib.

Renat Dadaşov ötən mövsümü Polşanın digər klubu “Radomyak”da keçirib. Amma o, mövsüm bitən kimi sözügedən klubu tərk edib və “Motor”la razılaşıb. Renat karyerası ərzində “Qrasshopper”, “Tondela”, “Eştoril”, “Pasuş de Ferreyra”, “Hatayspor”, “Ankaragücü” kimi klublarda da forma geyinib. O, Azərbaycan milli komandasının heyətində meydana çıxdığı 41 oyunda 6 qol, 1 məhsuldar ötürmə müəllifi olub.

The group said it will leverage Nvidia Corp.'s data platforms and AI technologies and will integrate data into a unified learning pipeline.

Fifth Top 5 finish for the Dacia Bigster in Austria.

21,288 new cars hit Austrian roads in February, another solid 8.5% year-on-year improvement. After a double-digit gain in January, the year-to-date volume is up 10.4% to 44.217. Volkswagen (+1.7%) remains in the brands lead even though it can’t quite capitalise on the market growth. In contrast Skoda (+16.9%) and Audi (+10.4%) pushed ahead and complete the podium as it was also the case in January. BMW (-21%) is in a rut at #4 while Dacia (+13%) is up four spots on last month to round out the Top 5. Peugeot (+44.3%), Cupra (+21.7%) and Toyota (+15%) also make themselves noticed in the remainder of the Top 10. Below, BYD (+62.8%) at #12, Fiat (+89.4%), MG (+136.1%) and Leapmotor (+463.6%) are among carmakers standing out.

Model-wise, the VW Golf (-13.9%) repeats at #1 for what is only its third win in the past 12 months, it is followed by the Skoda Octavia (-27.5%) in even worse shape. The Toyota Yaris/Cross (+102.7%) doubles its sales year-on-year and surges 15 spots on January to #3. The Dacia Bigster (+40000%) celebrates one year in market with a splendid 4th position, already its 5th Top 5 finish in Austria. The VW Pplo (+23.5%) is down 5 ranks on last month but soars YoY, as do the Audi Q3 (+214.8%), Skoda Elroq (+623.5%), Enyaq (+82.4%), VW Bus (+72.5%), Seat Leon (+71%) and Audi A1 (+169.5%).
