Race Rap: Monday, March 17

Marquez does it again. Marc Marquez continued his early unbeaten romp in MotoGP with another clean sweep in Argentina. Ducati's new factory spearhead took the Sprint race on Saturday before out-racing his younger brother Alex to take the GP victory, his 64th MotoGP win and his fourth at the Termas de Rio Hondo circuit, with Franco Morbidelli in third.

Porsche sweeps again. The Penske Porsche team has swept the second of the USA's classic sports car enduros with a 1-2 finish in the Sebring 12-Hour, following victory at the Daytona 24-Hour that opened the sports car season. Once again, Australia's Matt Campbell could only manage second, as the winning car was driven by Felipe Nasr, Nick Tandy and Laurens Vanthoor. Third place went to Acura after a relatively poor event for the Cadillac crews.

Van Gisbergen flat in Las Vegas. A spin and a series of right-front flat tyres meant a non-finish for Shane van Gisbergen in his first NASCAR Cup start at Las Vegas. He ran solidly in the top 20 for much of the race, after qualifying 29th, as he ran in full Red Bull colours for the first time in the main game.

Jet power in New Zealand. Brodie Kostecki and Will Davison will have a new look when the Supercars championship picks up at Taupo in New Zealand. The family Shell colours on the DJR Mustangs will be replaced with branding for Jet Couriers, the company owned by Brett Raph, who is also the majority shareholder at the Queensland team.

Safari time. The toughest round of the World Rally Championship is coming up fast and Toyota Gazoo Racing intends to celebrate its 100th start in the championship with victory on the Safari Rally. But M-Sport has been putting extra efforts into the Safari specification of its latest non-hybrid Puma in the hope of upsetting the Japanese carmaker's African plan.
