Editorial Standards

Backfire Racing is an independent news publication owned and operated by The Auto Wire LLC. We cover motorsport news, results and stories from every grid.

What we publish

Every news story on Backfire Racing is written or reported by a named member of our editorial team. Stories carry a byline and a publication date. When we update a story in a meaningful way, we show the update date and say what changed.

Accuracy and sourcing

We rely on primary sources where possible: series, team and manufacturer statements, official results and timing, stewards’ decisions and regulations, court and regulatory records, and direct interviews. We name our sources when we can and explain when we cannot. We do not publish claims we cannot support.

Independence

Advertising, affiliate and sponsored content never decides what we cover or how we cover it. Sponsored and affiliate content is labeled as such.

Press releases and aggregation

When a story is based on a press release or another outlet’s reporting, we say so and link to the original, and we add our own context or analysis.

Use of AI

Our reporters and editors write our stories. We use AI tools only to help edit text a human has already written. See our AI Use Policy.

Corrections

We fix errors promptly and openly. See our Corrections Policy. Questions: Contact.
