In my latest exploration, I delved into the intriguing topic of whether there's an equivalent of doping in auto racing. It turns out, there is.

It's a controversial issue, with some arguing it's part of the competitive nature of the sport, while others insist it undermines fairness. With advancements in technology, detecting these "doping" practices has become a significant challenge in the racing world.
