IndyCar returns this week for Race 4 in Alabama.
The 2.3-mile road course presents a particular challenge to drivers and engineers, especially in patience while setting up overtaking opportunities.
UEFA Champions League also returns next week with the final leg of the Semi Finals. With Manchester City taking on Real Madrid and Liverpool facing Villarreal, the Semi Finals this year are England vs Spain affairs.
After an action-packed Super Round weekend in Melbourne, it’s another big week of Rugby on Stan Sport with matches to enjoy from Super Rugby Pacific, Shute Shield, Hospital Challenge Cup and WA Premier League.
ROUND 11
REDS V CHIEFS
FRIDAY 29 APRIL
LIVE ONLY ON STAN SPORT FROM 7:15PM AEST
The Reds are desperate to make amends against the Chiefs after letting a 17-0 lead slip against the Hurricanes. Fraser McReight is in career best form, while the Chiefs will be without Sam Cane.
FORCE V BLUES
FRIDAY 29 APRIL
LIVE ONLY ON STAN SPORT FROM 9:45PM AEST
The Force get their first trans-Tasman action of the year against the table-topping Blues. The Perth club’s preparations have been hampered by a COVID-19 outbreak last week.
FIJIAN DRUA V HIGHLANDERS
SATURDAY 30 APRIL
LIVE ONLY ON STAN SPORT FROM 2:15PM AEST
The Drua will be eyeing a potential scalp in a 1-8 Highlanders side that lost to the Brumbies in Super Round. The clock is ticking for both clubs to start entering the finals frame.
WARATAHS V CRUSADERS
SATURDAY 30 APRIL
LIVE ON STAN SPORT FROM 4:30PM AEST
The Waratahs attack looked sharp at times against the Chiefs but they will need to tighten their defence significantly against a star-studded Crusaders outfit at Leichhardt Oval.
REBELS V MOANA PASIFIKA
SATURDAY 30 APRIL
LIVE ON STAN SPORT FROM 7:15PM AEST & 7:45PM AEST ON 9GEM
The Rebels have a golden opportunity to post their third win of the season against the last-placed Moana Pasifika. Young No.10 Carter Gordon showed his potential in Super Round.
BRUMBIES V HIGHLANDERS
SUNDAY 1 MAY
LIVE ON STAN SPORT FROM 1:30PM AEST
This could be the match of the round as the second-placed Brumbies host the high octane Hurricanes in Canberra. Rob Valetini v Ardie Savea shapes as a bruising back-row battle.

Scott McLaughlin’s sophomore assault on the IndyCar Series continues in Birmingham, Alabama on Monday morning (AEST) with the fourth race of the 2022 season.
The New Zealander sits second on the overall standings behind teammate Josef Newgarden with another Penske driver, Australia’s Will Power, in fourth.
McLaughlin feels his skills will shine in Birmingham.
“Barber is a very cool track that requires a bucket load of commitment – every time I come here it reminds me so much of Phillip Island back home,” McLaughlin said.
“It’s flat out and hold on tight – which as you know, I absolutely love!”
SEMI FINAL – 1ST LEG
FEATURE MATCH: WEST HAM V FRANKFURT
FRIDAY 29 APRIL
LIVE ONLY ON STAN SPORT FROM 4:35AM AEST
This will be the second time these teams have met in the Semi Finals of a UEFA competition, with West Ham coming out on top then – 46 years ago. But Frankfurt knocked out Barcelona at the Camp Nou last round and are not to be underestimated.
SEMI FINAL – 2ND LEG
VILLARREAL V LIVERPOOL
WEDNESDAY 4 MAY
LIVE ONLY ON STAN SPORT FROM 4:35AM AEST
Liverpool are one step closer to a third UEFA Champions League final in five seasons after a 2-0 win against Villarreal in the first leg of their Semi Final tie at Anfield. If Liverpool progress, it will be their third Champions League final in five years as they continue their hunt for an unprecedented quadruple of major trophies.
REAL MADRID V MANCHESTER CITY
THURSDAY 5 MAY
LIVE ONLY ON STAN SPORT FROM 4:35AM AEST
After a successful first Semi Final match on home turf, Manchester City’s chances of making it through to the Final seems stronger. De Bruyne was outstanding once more and Foden showed how at home he is on the elite stage, but this narrow lead keeps Real Madrid very much alive in the Semi Final battle.
