I'm Elizabeth Blackstock, and you can find me wearing heart-shaped sunglasses at a race track somewhere around the world.

A dynamic and accomplished motorsport journalist, author, podcaster, and historian, I've been widely recognized for my insightful commentary, engaging writing style, and deep knowledge of the racing world.

My passion for cars has often been literary, and that's how I've found myself where I am today: senior editor at Jalopnik; contributor to RACEWKND magazine, PlanetF1, Donut, and Road & Track; co-author of Racing with Rich Energy; co-host of the Donut Racing Show podcast, and host of upcoming history podcast Deadly Passions, Terrible Joys.

Some of my passions include:

  • The history of Formula One, 1950-1980

  • Modern open-wheel racing

  • American motorsport culture

  • History's forgotten female racing drivers

  • Collaborating with anyone who has a four-wheeled goal they want to see come to fruition
