Lights Out: The race for the 'Triple Crown' is on!

Originally written by Joas van Wingerden. This version is a translation.

A significant spanner was thrown into the works as Fernando Alonso attempts to seal motorsport glory by winning the 'Triple Crown' of Monaco Grand Prix, Indianapolis 500 and Le Mans 24 Hours. Could Juan Pablo Montoya steal his thunder? It's lights out for Thursday morning!

MUST READ

Unlike Alonso, Montoya already has two thirds of the mythical treble in the bag, having won in Indy in 2015 and Monte Carlo in 2003.

Now he's added his name to the world's most famous endurance race.

Why are both men going for an honour that only Graham Hill holds? Jacques Villeneuve believes Michael Schumacher's untouchable F1 records might have something to do with it.

Villeneuve had plenty more to say in an interview with AS, he also does not believe Max Verstappen can be classed among the top level of F1 drivers yet, as he is too inconsistent.

The merry-go-round takes another spin. Valtteri Bottas for Kimi Raikkonen at Ferrari?

And Haas have been forced to hit back at claims their car is a "clone" of Ferrari's model from last year. This piece includes a handy side-by-side image so you can judge for yourself!
