Fans were just as hot as the asphalt as Formula One racecars lined up at the start line at the Hungaroring track in Budapest this past weekend as familiar drivers and racing teams revved their engines to compete in the 70-lap erratically curved course near the center of the historic, ancient city. Budapest's Hungaroring track was first constructed in 1936, making it one of the oldest in Eastern Europe, and the Grand Prix race there drew nearly 200,000 spectators to see what all the fuss was about.

Once upon a time, any cyclist would have been proud to compete in the Tour de France, but with its reputation in tatters after the 2007 race, the cyclists overwhelming desire this year was to get to Paris and then go home. After all the controversy of the race this year, it will take cycling years to recover from the shockwaves. The Tour de France has long been known in conjunction with just one man; seven-time winner American Lance Armstrong. But more recently, it's also been marred by scandal when a record number of riders were banished this year due to failed drug tests. Favourite Alexander Vinokorouv was among them, along with race leader Michael Rasmussen, who was yanked just four days before the end of the event.

You may remember Bjorn Borg as the famous Wimbledon legend. Born in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1956, he was the youngest player to have so much success in the sport of tennis. His first win came at the ripe age of 17. He quickly turned into a heartthrob and mesmerized fans with his calm, reserved, and charismatic personality, which also enabled him to make money from publicity events. Setting a Winning Record - Borg is a former number-one tennis player who won five Wimbledons in a row (1976-1980) and six French Opens. He won 11 Grand Slam singles and was the youngest tennis player to win the Davis Cup match, the Italian Open, and the French Open. He was the only player to win the French Open and Wimbledon in the same year, and his record remains unshattered to this day. The only thing he couldn't seem to win was the U.S. Open, despite numerous tries.
