In this high-octane episode of 7DS, we dive into the twisted tale of John Paul Sr.—a world-class race car driver whose life off the track was far more dangerous than anything he faced at 200 mph. From winning Le Mans to running a ruthless drug trafficking empire, Paul Sr.'s checkered flag career took a sinister turn. As his thirst for power, money, and control escalated, so did the bodies and betrayals. And when people close to him started disappearing—including his own wife—the question became not if he was involved, but how far he'd go to stay ahead of the law. Buckle up for a story of speed, scandal, and the deadly sins that drove one man off the rails.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Kawasaki Z900 is an inline-4 first launched in 2017, although of course its DNA can be traced all the way back to the original Midnight Prowler Z1 from the 1970s. I'm proud to say that I've owned both of these machines—the original 1976 Z900 back when I lived in England, and subsequently, I also owned a 2019 Z900 now that I'm an American. That latter model was inexpensive but also fairly basic. However, it was impressive; an excellent street bike that suited my needs at the time. Having said that, it did need a few upgrades. Well, it seems Kawasaki agree, and recently launched the Z900 SE edition—and I believe it fits the bill nicely. Matt Ayhan went to the launch, and gives us the low down. *  *  *  *  * Hey, adventure riders, are you ready to take your rides to the next level?

Other career highlights include winning the Lightweight GP National Championship, and earning multiple top-10 finishes in the MotoAmerica Supersport class. Melissa was also part of the first all-female team to complete the Bol d'Or 24 Hour World Endurance Championship race, and repeated that feat at LeMans a year later.

Si te hablo de cuál fue el primer coche con tracción delantera me dirás que el Citroën Traction Avant... ¡Error! hasta llegar a este modelo se tuvo que andar un largo camino… tan largo que se puede decir que arranca, vais a alucinar, en 1770… Entre ese primer tracción delantera y el Traction de 1934 hay muchos e interesantes coches… y muchas e interesantes historias. Joseph Cugnot diseñó y fabrico el triciclo Fardier con motor de vapor, del que se puede decir que iba montado de forma transversal y que la tracción iba a la rueda anterior, única. Su máxima era de 4 km/h… un peligro porque apenas giraba. Ahora recordamos a Latil, una empresa destinada a la fabricación de coches y creada por el empresario, de largo nombre, Auguste Joseph Frédéric Georges Latil, porque en 1899 lanzó un modelo Latil muy avanzado para su época, con frenos a las 4 ruedas, motor delantero y tracción delantera. Esta marca luego derivó sobre todo en tractores y vehículos industriales de cierto prestigio. Mientras, al otro lado del charco, en los EE.UU. de Norteamérica un tal Walter Christie diseñó y patentó un coche de tracción delantera en 1904. Este modelo incluso compitió en la Copa Vanderbilt en 1906 y poco después en el Gran Premio de Francia. Tenía el motor transversal y la tracción delantera… como el 90 por ciento de los coches de ahora… pero entonces, era una verdadera rareza. El tal Walter hizo también coche de tracción total. Este modelo fue imitado. Y en que, en estas fechas, y ahora desvelamos por qué nos referimos a los Speedway, la gran mayoría de carreras allí en los USA eran en óvalos con curvas de gran radio y firme de ceniza o tierra, los famosos Speedway. En este terreno, uno de los inconvenientes de la tracción delantera, su amplio radio de giro, no era problema, pero algunos estimaban que, por el contrario, era una ventaja en cuanto a motricidad. Entre ellos las marcas norteamericanas Detroit Special y Miller, que produjeron coches de tracción delantera. ¡Ojo! Que el Miller 91 llegó a imponerse en el Campeonato Nacional de la AAA o American Automobile Asociation. El coche es precioso y además de tracción delantera estaba sobrealimentado con un compresor. Hasta ahora hemos visto coches de tracción delantera que eran casi prototipos o coches de competición. Vamos a los coches de calle. Y siempre que se habla del primer coche de tracción delantera construido en serie, aunque sea muy corta, sale a relucir el nombre de Bucciali. Los hermanos Angelo y Paul-Albert Bucciali eran unos enamorados del automóvil y fundan la marca Bucciali en 1922. Tras varios modelos con tracción delantera lanzan a comienzo de los años 30 el Bucciali TAV 12. Era un coche muy especial, muy bajo de altura para lo que se estilaba en la época, gracias a la tracción delantera que eliminaba el correspondiente túnel de transmisión, y con transmisión semi automática. Me hace gracia que en estos años si te gustaban los coches y tenías dinerito, creabas tu propia marca. Y esto fue precisamente lo que hizo Errett Lobban Cord quien, tras comprar Auburn y Duesenberg, decidió crear su propia marca, aún más elitista y para hacerlo más diferent optó por utilizar la tracción delantera. Lo cierto es que la tracción delantera aún no estaba resuelta y tuvieron inconvenientes con la fiabilidad porque el coche giraba poco, las juntas homocinéticas “Rzeppa” de las ruedas delantera, solo permitían 32 grados de giro, eran frágiles y para colmo, el volante tenía reacciones muy bruscas. El mayor inconveniente para la expansión de la tracción delantera eran las juntas homocinéticas y fue el brillante ingeniero Jean Albert Grégoire quien eliminó esos problemas. Era un hombre muy aficionado al motor, como digo, brillante ingeniero y otro que decidió crear su propia marca. La llamó Tracta, no confundir con Tatra de la que hemos hecho un video recientemente… Querían que el coche fuese muy especial y decidieron hacerlo de tracción delantera. Pero las juntas homocinéticas del momento, como la Weiss, Mechanic o Glaenzer no eran muy buenas…. Y decidió diseñar las suyas propias… todo un acierto. En estos tiempos no había ni televisión Internet… pero sí carreras de coches y eran la mejor publicidad. Grégoire quería dar a conocer sus coches y pensó en la competición. Ya en 1926 el primer Tracta estaba listo y en 1927 participó en las 24 Horas de Le Mans… Pese a muchas complicaciones el Tracta Tipo A en su versión “Gefi” tomó parte en las 24 horas de Le Mans y las terminó a una media de 70,5 km/h. Y lo más importante fue que el coche no sufrió ningún tipo de problema y las juntas Tracta alcanzaron una justa y merecida fama. Tanta que la marca abandonó los coches en unos pocos años para centrarse en sus juntas homocinéticas. Todos pudieron comprobar que la tracción delantera ya estaba lista para ser usada en coches de calle y llegó… DKW: Los pioneros. Siempre digo que la realidad supera la ficción… y este es el caso. Y es que fue un cliente de Tracta el que, entusiasmado con el comportamiento de su coche, habló de las ventajas de la tracción delantera a J. S. Rasmussen, fundador de la marca DKW. Y fue en el Salón de Paris de 1929 cuando tuvo lugar un “encuentro en la cumbre” entre Grégoire y Rasmussen para adoptar la tracción delantera en sus coches de dos tiempos a partir de 1931. Y es que el primer coche con tracción delantera de producción en series importantes, de miles de coches, en concreto 4.353 unidades, no fue el Citroën Traction, sino el DKW F1. A este primer DKW le siguieron muchos con esta transmisión, como los F8, F91, F93, F94 y F102, entre otros. Realmente la marca alemana DKW fue la que primero apostó fuerte por este sistema que introdujo con éxito en toda su gama y que constituyó una de las características de estos interesantes coches… Y ¡por fin! llegó el Traction… El Traction Avant lanzado en 1934 destacó por muchos motivos, entre ellos la tracción delantera… pero no solo por eso. Gracias a este sistema y a su chasis monocasco este modelo era claramente más bajo que sus contemporáneos. Esto repercutía mucho en la estética, pero sobre todo en su estabilidad que era magnifica, muy superior a la de sus rivales. Fue la llegada del Mini en 1957, que combina la tracción delantera con el motor transversal para conseguir un aprovechamiento insuperable del espacio, el que ya definió el concepto de coche moderno, que ha llegado hasta nuestros días… Conclusión. Si pensabas que el Citroën Traction fue el primer tracción delantera ya has visto que hubo muchos, pero muchos coches con este sistema antes que él. Algunos eran prototipos, otros muy minoritarios, otros de competición, pero otros, como los DKW, que se vendieron en grandes series.

Jim and Rich dive into the crazy, complicated and confusing Grand Prix from Le Mans. The Moto3 boys kicked off the action on damp but drying tack on Sunday morning. The race was calm by the normal Moto3 standards, but the last lap more than made up for the lack of action. Kelso was looking for his first ever Moto3 win and was leading Munoz and Rueda. In the second to last turn Munoz dive bombed Kelso which caused both to go off track. This allowed Rueda to pass both of them and take a surprise victory. The Moto2 riders were forced to watch the back of Gonzalez for the whole race as he dominated. MotoGP was where all the action and surprises were. Quartararo shocked with pole position or Marc Marquez.. In the Sprint Marc used a smooth and patient approach to take the win over his brother and rookie sensation Aldeguer. On Sunday the weather played havoc with everyone as new rules caused chaos. Picking the right tire was critical as some riders went from slicks to wets to slicks and back to wets. However the man who made all the right calls was Zarco. He became the first Frenchmen to win the French Grand Prix in 71 years.

We also sit down with Red Bull KTM Tech3 Team Principal Herve Poncharal to talk about Le Mans, Maverick Viñales' surge and more

When you put the word 'French' in front of other words (like 'sex' or 'kissing' or 'fries') magic happens. But when. you put it in front of the sentence 'victory in their home Moto GP for the first time in history' things go to a whole other level. Johann Zarco became an instant national hero when he made history as the first French rider to win the premiere class at Le Mans and the team at The Greatest Motorcycling Podcast in the Universe are here for all of it. Boris, Tug and Freido are joined by special in studio guest Pete Vorst of Compass Expeditions as they break down one of the most memorable race wins in years. There's also Boris' poem (an ode to Zarco), Freido's horoscope (also about Zarco...there's a pattern emerging here) and the 'Simone Flatterson Man Boobs and Grid Girl Critique' (which isn't about Zarco but is still magnificent) and the rest of the puerile nonsense you've come to expect from these three reprobates. Hit the play button and enjoy the gloriousness of it. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry and it it will make you irresistably attractive to the opposite sex. You've been warned.

Tonight, we have an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you, sharing in the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing.  In 2007 Adrián Fernández made his debut at Le Mans taking home a second place in a V8 powered LMP2 prototype. This was the first podium for a Mexican driver at the Circuit de la Sarthe since the 1960s.  Three years later in 2010, Adrián found himself back at Le Mans this time behind the wheel of Aston Martin's LMP1 finishing fifth in class (6th overall).  Returning for the 80th running of Le Mans in 2012, Adrián and Aston Martin took home a third place finish in the GTE-Pro class covering 332 laps without failures or serious mechanical problems. With his help, the team achieved the fastest lap in their class at 3:54.928. And Adrián had the distinct honor of driving the Aston to the checkered flag. On September 12, 2012, Adrián announced his retirement from racing, thus concluding his relationship with Aston Martin Racing, but that wasn't the end of this involvement in the world of Motorsports. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Adrian Fernandez's Le Mans Journey 01:56 Early Racing Career and Challenges 03:20 Transition to Endurance Racing 07:54 First Le Mans Experience 10:50 Challenges and Triumphs at Le Mans 13:13 The Art of Endurance Racing 21:45 Aston Martin and Later Years 24:49 Transition to GT Racing 25:58 Final Race and Reflections 29:03 Advice for Aspiring Drivers 34:37 Changes in Motorsport: Safety Innovations 38:32 Historic Cars and Modern Racing 40:55 Life After Racing 45:35 Closing Thoughts and Farewell ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ To learn more about or to become a member of the ACO USA, look no further than www.lemans.org, Click on English in the upper right corner and then click on the ACO members tab for Club Offers.

Why did so many other riders who had the chance to match Zarco's strategy choose not to?Did the new rules prompted by Marquez's dash off the Austin grid work on their first appearance and was this actually a great race (Matt thinks so and Val sort of agrees) or a rubbish and processional non-spectacle? (Simon thinks so).Want more MotoGP podcast content? Sign up to our motorbike-only Riders tier on Patreon for our 2015 revisited series, ad-free listening and more.

Dre Harrison, Richard Asher and Oriol Puigdemont host an emergency edition of Tank Slappers off the back of one of the biggest bombshell MotoGP stories of 2025 so far. The majority of the show is taken up with the breaking news that Jorge Martin met with Aprilia discreetly during the French GP weekend at Le Mans and told the team that he intends to leave at the end of the season via a performance clause that was in his contract that gave him an option to leave after six races if Martin wasn't placed high enough in the Championship. Oriol breaks down how this story came about, the logic behind Martin activating the clause in his contract, where Martin may intend to move to as a result if he fully commits to leaving, and what this means for Aprilia going forward if their news talismanic rider wants to leave despite just one GP weekend with the team so far. There's also a short review of the French GP itself, as Johann Zarco become the first premier class home winner of the race since 1954, as well as why it was a huge weekend for Marc Marquez in the Championship fight, and Pecco Bagnaia's latest explanations for his struggles after leaving the weekend without a single point. 

Adam and Neil connect with David from the confines of the Le Mans media centre to go over an emotional and chaotic round of 2025 MotoGP where history was made and histrionics reigned.

Sometimes, MotoGP is all about the numbers. Like the number 23 - the amount of races Ducati would have had to win in order to set a new world record. Or the number 1 - the amount they came up short. That bit was courtesy of Number 5, a.k.a. Johann Zarco, the man driving the home crowd wild through a spectacular performance. And going wild they should, as it's been 73 years since a Frenchman claimed victory at Le Mans! And then there's the weather, the tires and of course the crashes, including one incident caused squarely by our old nemesis Mr. Holeshot Device. Think Mat and Peter have some thoughts on this? You know they do! So join us in drinking cheap champagne and talking about, let's just say it, the best race this season. Cheers!Want more?

A due giornate dalla fine del campionato è ancora lotta serratissima per centrare il quarto posto che vale l’accesso alla Champions League. Dopo la sconfitta del Bologna e il pareggio tra Lazio e Juve, potrà approfittarne la Roma, impegnata domani sera contro l’Atalanta. Noi ne parliamo con mister Stefano Colantuono. Spazio poi alla corsa Scudetto: Franco Vanni ci racconta le ultime da Torino, dove l’Inter tra pochi minuti scenderà in campo contro il Toro. Con Max Gallo invece facciamo il punto su ciò che succede in casa Napoli, con la squadra di Conte che attende stasera il Genoa per fare un altro passo verso il titolo. Con Guido Vaciago riavvolgiamo il nastro e ci soffermiamo sul pareggio della Juventus di ieri, pareggio che frena appunto la rincorsa al quarto posto. Vincenzo Martucci ci porta a Roma e analizza il ritorno in campo vincente di Jannik Sinner, al termine della squalifica inflitta al numero uno del mondo. Con Carlo Pernat invece voliamo in Francia per un resoconto sulla pazza gara di Motogp di Le Mans, conclusasi con la vittoria di Zarco. Infine il ciclismo, con Pier Augusto Stagi che ci illustra quanto accaduto nella terza tappa del Giro d’Italia.

Welcome to our motorsports podcast where we discuss F1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR, our own racing adventures, and some other adventures!Piastri and Palou just keep winning in F1 and IndyCar. Dominant performances from the two of them in their respective races. Verstappen was able to put on a defensive show until the clock struck midnight as he was out of tires and then to make matters worse a Virtual Safety Car is deployed which put him back to 4th. Although Palou ran away at Barber, the rest of the field had an exciting race that was interesting to watch from a strategic point of view. When to pit, how quick could guys get their tires warmed up, who could defend with cold tires the best? It had some great lunges and passes that played into high risk, high reward scenarios.Logano takes the win in NASCAR at Texas. Coming up this weekend: NASCAR is at Kansas, IndyCar is racing at Barber, WEC at Spa, IMSA at Laguna Seca, MotoGP at Le Mans, and Supercars at Tasmania.

A rapid podcast show this week as Adam and Neil prepare to enter the arena of Le Mans for the sixth round of 2025 MotoGP (with Dave's full blessing). We talk about our thoughts of the French venue, possible victors, new rule changes, who is on the 2026 chopping block, hear from HRC and more

Is Fabio Quartararo the first truly elite MotoGP rider to be trapped in the series' midfield for as long as he has been?Host Valentin Khorounzhiy discusses this with Simon Patterson on the latest edition of The Race MotoGP Podcast, ahead of Quartararo's home race at Le Mans that comes on the heels of a best-in-years weekend at Jerez.The show also delves into Quartararo's decision to stay put at Yamaha for 2025, the chances of him doing so again in 2027 - and the question of whether his lack of championship opportunities as he enters his theoretical prime as a rider is weighing on him.Finally, Val and Simon talk about the rest of Yamaha's line-up, discussing whether Jack Miller should count on a 2026 extension, whether Alex Rins's disappointing-so-far Yamaha tenure is likely to improve and whether it would make sense for Yamaha to try to bring in Toprak Razgatlioglu.Want more MotoGP podcast content?

Tom Clarkson is joined in the Jeddah paddock by nine-time Le Mans winner, Tom Kristensen, and two-time Le Mans podium finisher and F1TV analyst, Alex Brundle, to dissect the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. Oscar Piastri now leads the World Championship by 10 points after securing his third victory of the season. How has ‘confidence' made him faster? And will his mindset change now he's the one with a target on his back? Lando Norris joins the pod after recovering from his crash in qualifying to climb from P10 to P4. He reveals what he did differently before the race to relax and why he puts so much pressure on himself to perform, while McLaren CEO Zak Brown explains why their rivals may not be as far behind as the Constructor Standings lead us to believe. Plus, after Max Verstappen's sensational pole lap and P2 finish, are we seeing signs of a Red Bull recovery? Is Max Verstappen still capable of winning a fifth title in a row? And should Red Bull focus all their energy on improving their 2025 car rather than 2026?  Also on the agenda: how did Charles Leclerc secure Ferrari's first Grand Prix podium of the season? Where does the data suggest Lewis Hamilton is struggling with the car? Why were Mercedes slower in the race than in qualifying?

How to not get ripped off when buying a used classic car! How to spot fakes, frauds and phonies! The importance of documentation and pre-purchase inspections, and other lessons learned over 50 collective years of car shopping! === This episode is sponsored by Vyper Industrial — America's #1 rated shop chair, tool carts, and creepers, proudly made here in the US. Visit vyperindustrial.com and use code CARMUDGEON for $50 off. === We start off with a reminder to put fuel stabilizer in your car when it's going to sit for a while – especially if you're using garbage California gas. We debate what the acronym “smh” stands for, and discover there seems to be a cat-flatulence epidemic in France. Then we'll dive right into the importance of the pre-purchase inspection (PPI) – something Jason thought he was more than qualified to perform himself on a Le Mans-blue Alfa Romeo GTV at Monterey Car Week several years ago. However, at the urging of concours car-prep extraordinaire, Tim McNair, Jason acquiesced and let expert automotive consultant, Chuck Wray, take a look at the car, and almost immediately discovered that Jason was moments away from buying two GTVs that had been stealthily welded into one. Derek will fill us in on how there can possibly be multiple “numbers matching” cars with the same serial numbers. And we'll cover several of the factory-based archival certification programs like VW's Birth Certificate, Porsche's Kardex and Certificate of Authenticity, Lotus' Certificate of Vehicle Provenance, and the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust. We'll cover Ferrari Classiche (pronounced “classi-kay”), and the handful of exhaustive and painstakingly researched books detailing the specs of iconic models: Carrera RS, The Dino Compendium, and Simon Kidson's The Lamborghini Miura. Plus automotive engineering and restoration atelier, Pur Sang. We take a trip to Esoteria once again to discuss the subtlest model changes on cars like the Scirocco, Rover SD1 3500, Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16 and what each change signifies (or doesn't in the case of VW's haphazard product planning). Jason even uncovers a handful of U.S.-spec C43s accidentally left the factory wearing a Europe-only paint color, Black Opal. Which is actually blue. Jason's approach to not getting screwed while buying a 996 cabriolet on eBay involves arriving at the seller's in a blacked out E39 BMW 5-series wagon with Argentina plates and wielding a baseball bat – classic haggling. Meanwhile, Derek does everything by the book and pays for a $500 PPI on a Porsche 911 he found online, only for it to arrive smoking and in need of a head rebuild. Both Carmudgeons revel in learning the histories of their cars (and others' cars): Jason getting the original paperwork for the Ferrari 308 GT4 from distributor Chinetti-Garthwaite to dealer Schwing Motor Company in 1975, and Derek tracking down his friend's 356's Kardex and subsequently locating photos of the car with its original owner when the car was brand new. There's loads of automotive history, forensics, anthropology and archaeology in this one! The question is, would you give up your original California plate if it meant no more SMOG checks?

She didn't start racing until her late 20s. She wasn't supposed to make it to Indy. But Lyn St. James didn't just make it—she made history. This song is a tribute to the woman who turned rejection into rocket fuel and became the first woman to earn Rookie of the Year honors at the Indianapolis 500.

Ferrari ambassador and former test driver Marc Gene has been with the team since 2004. During that time, Marc has had the privilege of working alongside five World Champions: Michael Schumacher, Kimi Raikkonen, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel and now, Lewis Hamilton. Do they all have a common trait that makes them so successful? What's the difference between one-time and multiple World Champions? Speaking to Tom Clarkson, Marc shares stories from his years working with each of those legends. The Spaniard also talks about his own racing career in F1, which started with Minardi in 1999, why he loved testing Formula 1 cars for Williams and Ferrari, winning Le Mans in 2009, and much more.
