Auto racing originated in the late 19th century as automobiles began to gain popularity. The first organized race is often attributed to the Paris-Rouen race in 1894, organized by the Paris newspaper Le Petit Journal. Early automotive pioneers like Émile Roger and the Benz company were instrumental in promoting racing to showcase their vehicles' capabilities. Over time, various individuals and organizations contributed to the development of the sport, leading to the structured racing events we see today.
