Richie Stanaway quits
Tauranga racing driver Richie Stanaway has made a surprise announcement he's quitting the sport.
He took to social media after yesterday's final round of the Australian Supercars championship to say he was calling it quits earlier than he would have expected, and it was time to start a new chapter.
Stanaway, who turned 28 yesterday, made his name in 2010 by dominating the German F3 championship and went on to win races in GP3 and GP2 as well as for the Aston Martin factory team in the World Endurance Championship.
He won the Sandown 500 as a codriver in 2017 but struggled for success in two full seasons in the Supercars championship with a best placing of 9th.

It was a shootout early in the piece with both teams combining for 57 points in the opening quarter.
Corey Webster had been the spark for the Breakers scoring 14 points in the first term, but once he left the floor with a nasty looking ankle injury in the second quarter, the Sixers were able to take full toll.
That saw the home team head into half-time leading 60-43 and they went on with the job in the second half piling on another 30 points in the third term, and 27 more in the fourth.
The 117 points scored by Adelaide was the biggest total put up by any team this NBL season.
For the Breakers, Sek Henry top-scored with 18 points while RJ Hampton added 15 and Brandon Ashley 13.
The Breakers have managed two wins this season.

Wilder retains WBC heavyweight belt
Deontay Wilder retained his WBC heavyweight title on Saturday with a seventh round knock-out of challenger Luis Ortiz.
In a repeat of their 2018 fight, the Alabama fighter soaked up pressure from his older opponent before sending him to the canvas with a straight right hand to the forehead.
Ortiz was on his feet before the end of the count but was still shaky and the referee called an end to proceedings.
The decision was a tough one for the 40-year old Cuban, who had made all the running in the early rounds.
It takes Wilder's record to 42-0-1 and sets him up for a February, 2020 date with Tyson Fury, the undefeated British boxer he drew with in Los Angeles almost a year ago.
"After that I am looking for a unification bout," Wilder said. "I want one champion, one face, one name and he goes by the name Deontay Wilder."

Needing a birdie at the final hole to beat Fleetwood's mark, Rahm produced a sublime bunker shot to within three feet before rolling home to secure the Harry Vardon Trophy.
The 25-year-old Rahm became the second Spaniard after the late Seve Ballesteros to win the European Tour's season-long Race to Dubai crown or its predecessor, the Order of Merit.
