Saddened to read the new about @darrellwaltrip … I’d just texted DW last week when were at Bristol (as I’ve done each year) … the whole racing community is embracing the family with thoughts & love.

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

They were fantastic days … thanks for reminding me to the-live it 👍🏻

[Felix Presland🟤🟡🐉 @FelixPresland]

It was worth the wait Jim with that kind of finish 👍🏻

And we have a winner! My name has been mispronounced all the my life e.g. Leah, Lay, Ly, Leej but today a woman at LaGuardia took the prize … Leg-hee 🤦‍♂️😁

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

And a peak of 2.2 million up against the first week of the NFL 👏🏻👍🏻

[Adam Stern @A_S12]

.@USANetwork averaged 1.635 million viewers for Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series Enjoy Illinois 300 @WWTRaceway, up 7% from 1.525 million last year.

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

Had to sleep on it before commenting on Sunday’s @nascar Cup race at @WWTRaceway … that was something wasn’t it?! All those cautions, all those crashes, all those re-starts but I can’t help but feel it was … fun? Crazy? Entertaining? 🤷🏼‍♂️ Congrats @KyleLarsonRacin on the win 👏🏻

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

Legend!!!

[USATF @usatf]

One final lap for one of the greatest to ever do it 🐐❤️

🥇 Olympic champion
🥇 World champion
🐐 Two-time world record setter
🥇 Five-time U.S. champion

Dalilah Muhammad helped redefine what was possible in the women’s 400m hurdles and leaves behind a legacy that will live far beyond the finish line.

In the final race of her legendary career, Dalilah clocks 53.11 to finish fourth at World Ultimate.

Thank you for everything, Dalilah 🥹👏

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

Yep for sure and a few days later I was in Germany to call the CART race where Alex Zanardi had his horrendous crash.

[Edd Sirr @eddsirr]

@leighdiffey You were still at the BBC then too?

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

I was working in London on 9/11. A production assistant came running into the office to deliver the news … a small group of us were putting together the weekly World Superbike magazine show. Will never forget that moment when the world changed. #911Remembrance

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

Fabulous to see the @jonasbrothers play a beautiful tribute to the Aussie music legend John Farnham 👌🏻 @NFL in Melbourne 👏🏻

[Bristol Motor Speedway @ItsBristolBaby]

Two-time Indy 500 winner. One VERY important set of keys. 🔑🔥

As someone who has done this trip way more times than I’d ever imagined I hope it works for them but I honestly feel the 49-ers strategy is better. I guess time will tell.

[Joe Pompliano @JoePompliano]

The Rams are taking a Qantas Airbus A380 from Los Angeles to Melbourne.

That is the largest and most expensive commercial passenger airliner ever built and there are enough lie-flat seats for every player and some coaches.

But those airplanes also don't have wifi, which doesn’t sound ideal for 34 hours of flight time in 2-3 days.

[Bristol Motor Speedway @ItsBristolBaby]

BREAKING NEWS: BRAD PITT + BRISTOL. 🔥

Brad Pitt is coming to The Last Great Colosseum as Grand Marshal for the #BassProNightRace!

[Adam Stern @A_S12]

.@BMW believes it gets a better ROI from @IMSA than it would @F1 because sports cars give a direct tech transfer, and the importance of the U.S. market: "Formula 1 is too far away for us, too much laboratory and too little transferable to production cars." https://t.co/bVCqF2AR9A

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

Excited to be back at @TooToughToTame for the @NASCAR Chase to begin tonight on @NASCARonUSA . At the same time thinking about @scottdixon9 and his final Indycar drive for @CGRTeams after 25 years together. Loyalty like that in top tier sports is rare. Enjoy the ride bro 👌🏻👏🏻

[NASCAR @NASCAR]

A new journey is about to begin.

The Chase kicks off today with the #Southern500.

[Leigh Diffey @leighdiffey]

No Eric, I’m in the midst of 14-straight NASCAR weekends which includes The Chase that starts this Sunday in @TooToughToTame … I’ll be back in January for @SupercrossLIVE mate 👍🏻

[Eric @Erob82]
