Here is this week’s rough guide to race start times, all UK (GMT+1), please check your TV listings as pre-race shows vary. NASCAR Cup’s TV start time is given as the green flag time is not known.

Much of this incidental of course, the biggest event this weekend is in football. Germany v England in the World Cup is an event of major national significance and I’d say in this country it is the biggest international fixture possible in any sport. You can bet nearly everybody will be watching. F1 at Valencia will not long be finished but that race is boring anyway! Don’t expect anything in post-race analysis, the UK-based teams want to watch too (no doubt it’ll be tense down at MercedesGP). Note F1 is on BBC2 on Sunday due to Cup build-up.

Fantastically warm and sunny weekend though, so if the above races and the other games don’t grab you, I won’t blame you for disappearing off elsewhere.

I neglected this last week, though it seems most people worked out when Le Mans started! We’re back into the smaller events now so a helping hand may be needed. Of course with the hot and sunny weather we’ve been having here in the UK it seems foolish to stay in all day watching racing.

For future rounds of some of these series please see the Google Calendar links on the sidebar – be aware the start times for those events are not accurate so please only use it to find the date.

Notes
– the GP2 round scheduled at Portimao for this weekend was cancelled some time ago.
– These events are noted in UK time but I may have made errors, particularly with US events so be careful.
– I’ve listed overnight events as Saturday as many people stay up for them rather than sleep and get up especially.

Enjoy!
