The story behind the speed
pit.report is an independent journalism platform focused on endurance and GT racing. We do not write the flat news. We write the debriefing.
Why we exist
Motorsport media chase the first tweet; we chase the third insight. Readers want more than a result after the flag: they want to know why that result came about. Strategy, technology, tyres, team radio, and above all the person behind the helmet.
Richard Ley
Founder and editor-in-chief
pit.report started from a simple idea: endurance racing deserves coverage with more context, more depth and less noise.
I founded pit.report to combine a passion for motorsport with a modern, technology-driven approach to publishing. Our primary focus is the FIA World Endurance Championship and endurance racing, with independent reporting, technical insight and stories that go beyond the result sheet.
Technology and AI help us research, structure and produce efficiently, but they do not make the editorial decision. Facts, sources, tone and the decision to publish remain under human editorial control. That distinction is fundamental to how pit.report works.
The ambition is straightforward: to build a distinctive, independent motorsport publication that treats endurance racing with the depth and attention it deserves.
How we work
We are editorially independent. No article is written at the request of a manufacturer, team or sponsor. When a trip, event or test opportunity is covered by a third party, we say so in the article. Corrections are placed visibly; we do not hide mistakes.
The pens are AI-assisted
pit.report uses modern AI language models as editorial assistance for structure, sector analysis and text optimisation. Every article you read is verified by the editor-in-chief on facts, sources and tone. Angle, interview and analysis remain human. We never publish AI-generated quotes or interviews. When we show charts or models based on AI computation, we name the dataset and method in the caption.
Who we are
pit.report is a sole proprietorship based in The Hague, the Netherlands. Editor-in-chief: Richard Ley. Editorial and corrections: redactie@pit.report. Press and accreditation: press@pit.report. Corrections are placed visibly with the article.
