2025 will be the last year I do until the finale this year. The overall rankings are to the right.

Michael Finley ~! @finleyfactor.com · 29/09/2026

Probably the wildest year is 2024 so far, in part due to the SVG effect bringing in Hand and Allmendinger in competitive equipment on RCs. 23 unique stage winners, a new record by far.

Blaney showed speed early in the spec car era in 2022

Harvick's 2020 season only had two issues: no championship and only fourth in stage wins

Michael Finley ~! @finleyfactor.com · 29/09/2026

2018 time now. Harvick makes a big leap.

Let's go through the years and see how many drivers won how many stages in each year. First up is 2017.

Checked back a few hours later and wow it keeps getting worse

Some real winners in this fanbase either way

Albon’s cat Moomoo passed away :(

The face I made today when Hauger was announced to the 14, realizing who was out of a ride

This is the tweet that finally made my unconscious mind realize he’s gone

This is why I’ve never understood the idea of going out in public and just shitting on another series without having a measured reason for it, something Dixon had and Trotta did not.

Vickers has further clarified his thoughts on the Hocevar-Keselowski incident

Scotty, buddy, you gotta log off

Michael Finley ~! @finleyfactor.com · 04/09/2026

OD, buddy, come on, you're so close to the point on stages

There are two kinds of people on the internet

Why is NASCAR sending this junk to their PR email list

Mars generally sucks as a company but this is pretty good on them

From the Wikipedia article on Whitney Houston's cover of I Will Always Love You. Parton would say later in life that she took some of the money from the royalties the Houston recording brought her and invested it in a black neighborhood in Nashville.

As an aside: if you’re ever in DC, there are worse places to go than the Smithsonian Art Museum

Michael Finley ~! @finleyfactor.com · 22/08/2026

Dove into the art museum to enjoy an avocado toast lunch during IndyCar practice and guess fucking what, I couldn’t hear them at all in the galleries there

How the fuck do you get this from “Finley”

Michael Finley ~! @finleyfactor.com · 22/08/2026

This is the setup I’m using this year to report on the race:s/sprints for @grandprixfocus.com. Multiviewer is a game changer and now that anybody watching F1 legally in America can get it, it’s a no brainer. (I had a note to respond to this from yesterday)

Michael Finley ~! @finleyfactor.com · 20/08/2026

This is easily the worst written two paragraphs in any piece of racing journalism I’ve seen this year.

This tart guy doesn’t seem like the brightest crayon in the bunch

Thank you Mr. NASCAR for adding this race under this weird header to complete 2005 in the archives

Options: 1. Pay $450 for a Switch 2 before the end of the month price hike. Or 2. Pay $400 for all 62 Kairosoft games on Steam. Decisions, decisions

This clip has been in my head the last few days since this story popped up

Let's pretend the Chase began after the 12th race of the season at Watkins Glen. Here is the top 16 in standings using the seeding points after WGI + points earned the last 10 races. Hamlin clinches the championship one race early.

I have not been keeping up with the latest NR2003 drama surrounding Stunod but then I see this picture on Reddit and just laugh

Leafing through Smokey Yunick’s book to find something he wrote about and happened across this, something that is some how completely relevant 26 years later almost to the day

Mini sector splits are still working at least (use @multiviewer.app if you have a computer please)

What I’m trying to make work today F1 fix your GPS tracking system ffs

It’s not a coincidence Alex Bowman announces he’s retiring after next season on the same day Leo Alonso appears in public for the first time
