Hello. I had been keeping the different sub-feeds from Autosport coming into my Feedly RSS reader, however it seems to have rapidly descended from a standard bearer of insight to clickbait tosh. (I couldn't give even a fraction of a hoot about what was wearing what watch in the paddock, for example!)

Where do you good enthusiasts go for reliable, well written, non-shouty motorsport news and insight, please? My main interests are F1, WRC, WEC/ALMS, BTCC, various GT-based series.

I'd find where the series and teams post news and follow them on whatever social media it is.

Nice idea, FWD, but I don't use X, Facebook, Instagram etc. However, if the series themselves post news on their sites I might be able to tag into their RSS feeds.

The second part of the puzzle would then be good quality insights from real journalists. I've been saddened by Joe Saward not doing the Green Notebook this season for F1, but I understand that he needs to make a living!

Crikey is that guy still peddling his nonsense around, fair play.

Saward always strikes me as very condescending when responding to comments. It’s like he knows best and the rest of us are not worthy of my time. I cancelled my subscription sometime ago as a result

I agree that his tone can sometimes become off-putting, however he rarely been wrong with news/predictions and I'd prefer to have to look past condescension that read bout how Lewis's latest pants have the diamonds from Roscoe's old collar stitched into the hem and, oh, and there's chance he'll be driving for Cadillac in 2037. I like facts and genuine insight, not gossip and opinion puff.
