Ogier clinches Portugal victory

Sebastien Ogier made up for his Mexico crash by winning the Rally of Portugal for a second consecutive year. The Frenchman led team-mate Sebastien Loeb in a Citroen one-two, with a variety of problems consigning the Fords of Jari-Matti Latvala and Mikko Hirvonen to third and fourth. There had been nothing to choose between the top four in the first half of the rally, until Hirvonen suffered a puncture on Saturday morning and Loeb lost time running in his dust after the Ford rejoined

Simoncelli says size causing fuel issue

Marco Simoncelli has played down the chances of him running out of fuel before the end of grands prix, but admitted he has to run a leaner engine setting in order to make it to the flag. It emerged in Qatar that the tall Italian was having fuel consumption issues, and Simoncelli acknowledged that this was blunting his Gresini Honda's straightline performance. "At the end of the race I arrived with fuel in the tank, but the problem is that to arrive with fuel in the tank I have to go with a more lean fuel set-up, so the bike can push less," he said.

2011 Dodge Challenger SE V6 ? Short Take Road Test

The Pentastar V6 makes for a stronger, quicker base Challenger, but this pony is still most comfortable at a trot. It?s Dodge?s portly and nostalgia-slathered muscle pony, now with nicer interior materials and a new base engine: the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6. That means 305 hp instead of the old 3.5-liter V-6?s 250, as well as [...]
