NASCAR is on a two-week break coinciding with the 2024 Summer Olympics, as its broadcast partner NBC will focus on Olympic coverage. This hiatus allows the ARCA series to take center stage, with its next race scheduled at Elko Speedway, while the Cup Series will resume on August 11 after the Olympics end. In contrasting news, Formula 1 recently concluded the Belgian Grand Prix, where George Russell's disqualification for an overweight car handed victory to Lewis Hamilton, marking a notable resurgence for Mercedes after a challenging start to the season. The F1 season is experiencing unprecedented competitiveness, with seven different race winners so far, a stark contrast to the previous year dominated by Max Verstappen. Following the Belgian GP, F1 teams will enter a mandatory summer break lasting from July 29 to August 22, prohibiting any design or development work. This structured downtime provides teams and drivers with essential rest before resuming the season with the Dutch Grand Prix.
