Broncos are favored. In what is expected to be a high scoring duel, the Broncos have been favored by up to a touchdown by odds makers in weeks leading up to the game. This spread narrowed to 4 several days before and tightened to 1 point before the game began.

Formula One has been going on since 1950. Giuseppe Farina was the first Formula One drivers Champion and he drove an Alfa Romeo. Earlier only a few races were held every year but as the sport gained popularity the number of races increased every year.

Plenty, from how much horsepower one engine can have to how much down force can a car handle at a certain speed and fuel mileage of course. A lot of races come down to figuring out how much fuel to take on the last pit, or if the car has enough to stay out and not pit. Don't forget the engineering that goes along with setting up a car, and the math involved in making (creating )a NASCAR car.

The McLaren F1 GTR, it finished 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 13th.

The car that won was chassis #01R sponsored by Uneo Clinic.

Yes and no. Drivers are not required to pay for a seat directly. Teams choose and hire their drivers themselves.

Some drivers are chosen based purely on talent and offered a salary by the team, others are chosen based on a mix of talent and cash/sponsorship money they bring to the team.

Many teams will opt for a less talented driver that brings money with them to help fund the team, where as some teams pay their drivers millions of dollars per year.

All drivers have to pay for a superlicense in order to be eligible to drive in Formula 1. This superlicense costs $12,800, plus $1,280 for each championship point earned the previous year., meaning some drivers have to pay over $1million for a superlicense while others only have to pay $12,800!

Very good question, i know plenty of car racers and car lovers who wouldn't be able to start an f1 experience car on the first try.

This is how it goes:

First, a huge 'Prod' like is plonked/plugged in quickly into the back of the car, where the gearbox is usually, with the driver being already in the car, he ignite the engine, and start clutching and revving the engine.

This is very hard to do, usually with normal drivers the car will just stall.

Once a Formula One car's engine is started its need to move becomes very urgent. As they are designed to operate at high speed (where there is a good supply of cooling air flowing over surfaces) modern Formula One cars have very little in the way of cooling - and the heat created by running engines while stationary puts enormous strain on the mechanical parts of the car.

It depends on several things. The most important is the driver: the more he wins, the higher the price he or she can demand to sponsor the car. And the more popular a driver is, the higher the price demanded. Then there are full-season and part-season deals, "hood sponsorship" and "associate sponsorship" deals, whether the driver is going to star in commercials or just have the company's logo on the car (and where)...sponsor management is complex enough that the big racing shops have large staffs who serve the needs of their sponsors.

The 1992 Hooters 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway was run in front of an estimated crowd of 165,000, with Racing-Reference.info putting the crowd at 162,500. The track brought in temporary bleachers to accomodate the crowd that had built to see Richard Petty's final ride and a five-way compeition for the championship entering the season's final event.

On the circuit de la Sarthe near the town of Le Mans in France.

In a heads-up (even start) race that would be where the winning car had a slower Elapsed Time than the losing car. This occurs when the winning car and driver leave the starting line sooner then the losing car and even though it took longer to reach the finish line (from the time it left the start to the time it reached the finish) it got there first and won as a result of the better start. In a handicap (uneven start) race such as a bracket race, the same thing occurs additionally taking into account the differences between the handicap times (or dial-ins) and the actual Elapsed Times: The time between the green light coming on (the GO signal) and the car actually leaving the starting line is called the "Reaction Time" and most tracks measure this and supply the information to the driver at the conclusion of the race, on an "Elapsed Time slip" or "ET slip" (the info is printed on a slip of paper). If a driver looks at the results, and sees that he won even with a slower Elapsed Time, he will also see that he had a shorter reaction time. If the difference between 2 drivers' Reaction Times is greater than the difference between their Elapsed Times, the winning driver can claim that he had a "Hole-Shot Win". He won because he had a better Reaction Time even though his car was "slower"... By the way: The expression used to explain why the losing (although "faster") car lost is "He got Treed." For instance you can say: "I treed that duck with a hole shot..."Awesome!

Jacques Villenueve had eleven in a row from the start of the season (and there was only 16 races!)

He might have had another one after that too but I forget...

your time (number of seconds) it took for you to reach the quarter mile

Until another driver can win the championship who is not named Jimmie Johnson. It's Jimmie Johnson.

The race track that the Daytona 500 is raced on should be the most famous. The Daytona International Speedway. Talladega Superspeedway is another one for NASCAR. The other one would be Bristol Motor Speedway.

Carbon fibre has a high tensile strength, meaning that is can flex but maintain it's strength without snapping into pieces and it has a very low density. So it is due to lightness and strength which is vital for F1.

if the car is high,it is easy to produce the torque in car due to large moment arm,and the car can takes the sommerslauts. Ahmed Bilal Pakistan

The British GP was first held in a circuit called Brooklands in 1926. Silverstone has been an entrant in the yearly F1 race season as early as 1950 and has been the venue for the British Grand Prix. Even the Donnington Park circuit was expected to host the British GP but unfortunately they could not gather enough funds and so the idea was dropped.

Yes. Jamie married longtime girlfriend Christy Futrell in July 2009.

Nascar doesn't involve any direct movement from the participant...only steering. Also there isn't any two teams competing, everyone is competing at the same time. It is also a race not a sport with goals or end zones.

Bristol Motor Speedway is located in Bristol, Tennessee.

159,585, according to the speedway's website.

Adam Petty died on May 12, 2000 due to basilar skull fracture. While practicing for a Busch Series race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, the car got loose in turn 3, he over corrected it which sent him head-on into the wall. He died instantly.
