Racers travel all around the world to compete in Formula One competitions. Sometimes, drivers begin in the CART circuit and eventually move up to Formula One racing. The winningest Formula One driver is Alain Prost , who recorded 51 victories in 199 career starts. The first winner in 1923 averaged 57.21 miles per hour. Current winners average upwards of 135 mph.
Drag racers continue to break speed records almost as soon as they're set.
The Motorsports Hall of Fame of America is located in Novi, Michigan, and the International Motorsports Hall of Fame can be found in Talladega, Alabama. They are not just for auto racing but also for all other motorsports as well, like motorcycle, power boat, and air racing.
