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?
NASCAR is back, baby! Not only is the series back, but it’s time to run the new car on a weird new track, so it’s back in the best way possible. This weekend the teams and drivers will be testing their mettle at the Los Angeles Coliseum, as well as the metal of the Next Gen chassis. It’s going to be pretty exciting to see NASCAR kicking it back, but that’s not all that is happening this weekend. Over in Sweden, there’s the always mega Race of Champions, and down in South Africa there is an SRO-sanctioned 9-hour race for GT3 sports cars! Rise and grind race fans, it’s time to have fun again.

Here’s an onboard lap from Kyalami last year in a Bentley Continental GT3. It’s a neat circuit, and it’s nice to see that track back on the international calendar again.
