Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Britain stages the 13th round of the World Superbike Championship at Donington Park this weekend and for Carl Fogarty, the Blackburn rider, victory would bring him closer to the title, yet to be won by a Briton. Fogarty is nine points adrift of the championship leader, Scott Russell, of the United States, but his record at Donington is impressive. Four wins in this 750-1,000cc category and the lap record on his previous appearance in the British Championship series in June should give Fogarty the confidence to gain points on Russell going into the two remaining rounds after Donington. Qualifying for Sunday's championship starts today.
