Another special issue of AUTO ACTION DIGITAL magazine is one click away, featuring a touching tribute of Ayrton Senna and all that unfolded at Taupo.
To mark the 30th anniversary of Senna’s tragic death at Imola, a must-see six page feature celebrates the Brazilian legend’s life with special insights from those who knew him.
The likes of two-time F1 World Champion Emerson Fittipaldi, famous commentator and F3 rival Martin Brundle, karting rival Terry Fullerton and more have shared their personal reflections on Senna.
Fresh from a special drive at Taupo, championship leader Will Brown sat down for a one-on-one chat with Andrew Clarke.
Brown is the focus of a significant four-page feature on why he is the new “smiling assassin.”
The other stars from NZ including Andre Heimgartner/BJR and Anton De Pasquale/DJR are also profiled.
Also in the digital magazine, all the significant news from Taupo is featured at the front of the magazine, including a likely 2025 calendar, future NZ races and why jumping across the Tasman was such a success.
Red Bull is back in the F1 spotlight and Luis Vasconselas takes a look at why the reports of Adrian Newey leaving are true and where he could go next.
This is in addition to the usual bumper F1 news section, column and review of the Chinese Grand Prix.
Readers can also recap on a memorable weekend of Supercars racing around Taupo, plus all the drama around the world from WRC, IMSA, WEC, IndyCar, NASCAR and MotoGP.
A big Nationals section is back featuring off road, rally and circuit racing.
The speedway world has not stopped with the latest reports from around Australia.

Podcast: Stunning Taupo Shines Through the Gloom | Supercars back in New Zealand
We’re back from our weekend in Taupo (Tow Paw), and what an unbelievable first weekend for that venue. It was, we felt, the start of this season, too, despite it being the third round. Andrew and Bruce were there, and PG was on the couch.
Brodie Kostecki was back for Erebus, Andre Heimgartner won for Brad Jones Racing, and Will Brown battled his teammate Broc Feeney for the other win. Anton De Pasquale also won the Jason Richards Trophy for the best performer over the two races – is Dick Johnson Racing back?
