MINI USA is preparing for its first Rebelle Rally entry, with driver Felicia Killman and navigator Erika Ferrer training for 1,500 miles of rugged terrain in the American West. In its September 23 update, MINI said the pair had completed field training on dunes, rocks and loose ground and had seen the prepared vehicle they will compete in, with the adventure-oriented model variant set for a global reveal shortly before the rally.

The Heart of Racing Team took the Aston Martin Vantage back to the podium at the 6 Hours of Fuji on September 27, recovering from a difficult start to finish second in the FIA World Endurance Championship’s LMGT3 class. Ian James, Zach Robichon and Mattia Drudi followed their Circuit of the Americas victory with another strong result in Japan – the Vantage’s fifth WEC class podium of 2026, keeping the team’s title hopes alive.
