Dan Harper: I'm focused and ready to go again in SportsCar Championship bid
Harper continues his Stateside programme at the 4.04-mile track with Paul Miller Racing and fellow BMW M Motorsport works driver Max Hesse from 8pm BST. The Hillsborough native has not had the easiest of introductions, with time penalties at both Laguna Seca and Detroit denying him a shot at a podium result. A moment for Hesse at July's Canadian Tire Motorsport Park round, where the German was momentarily punted off the track, also cost them precious points in the GTD Pro class. There have been some positives, however, notably at the Six Hours of the Glen back in June where the young duo co-drove their BMW M4 GT3 Evo to a first-ever victory. It was a remarkable outcome considering Harper picked up a one-minute stop-and-go penalty for crossing the red pit-exit light following a pit stop, dropping him to last place. 'From the high of Watkins Glen, we went to Canada hoping to battle for another podium finish but sadly it just did not click for us,' he reflected. 'However, we just had to try and make the best of the situation and salvage as many Championship points as possible. 'It was a strange one for us, but you have those weekends every so often. The focus now is all about resetting and going again.' As part of their preparations for tomorrow's two-hour, 40-minute sprint race, Paul Miller Racing tested at the track last month and both Harper and Hesse deemed it a very worthwhile exercise. 'It was great to get to grips with the circuit for the first time and that knowledge and experience means we can hit the ground running,' said Harper. 'The BMW felt really good around the high-speed circuit, so we have no reason to think that we cannot go there and get a good result this weekend. After a pretty tough round in Canada, we are even more determined to be back fighting at the front in the GTD Pro class.'

Celtic risk blowing £1.6m transfer windfall as defensive duo head out on loan
The Hoops have stalled on the exit of Marco Tilio and Rapid Vienna could now move on to other options Rapid Vienna have warned Celtic they could pull the plug on a deal for Marco Tilio. The Austrians have agreed a £350,000 loan switch, with a £1.3million obligation to buy. But Celts have blocked a move until they sign another winger. Brendan Rodgers is desperately short of options on the flanks, having lost £17million star Nicolas Kuhn to Como and long-term crock Jota out of action until 2026. The Hoops boss only has wide men Daizen Maeda, James Forrest, Yang and Tilio to call upon ahead of Sunday's Premiership curtain-raiser at home to St Mirren. And until at least one new attacker arrives, the Scottish champions are reluctant to sanction anymore exits. That's left out-of-favour Tilio and Rapid Vienna in limbo. And it's understood the Austrian Bundesliga club are considering alternative options. That could see Celtic miss out on a potential £1.6m windfall for a player who has been deemed surplus to requirements. Meanwhile youngster Mitchell Robertson has penned a season-long loan deal with Inverness Caley Thistle. The 20-year-old defender has been a mainstay in the club's B team and was involved in the top team's pre-season friendlies. But Robertson will now continue his development in League One as Caley aim to defy their five-point deduction by sealing promotion. Right-back Ben McPherson is also on the verge of joining Partick Thistle on loan. McPherson - who also featured for Celts during pre-season - has endured an injury-hit few years but has spent time on loan with Queen's Park. Now, he'll link up with ex-Celt Mark Wilson at Firhill. As for incomings, Manchester City starlet Jahmai Simpson-Pusey underwent a medical in Glasgow on Friday and is expected to be paraded this weekend. However, when asked yesterday if any more signings were imminent, Rodgers said: "I will speak to some of the guys this afternoon. "Nothing really is on the radar as of yet, but you never know, things can move quickly."
