Aims to support motor racing addicts (6)
I believe the answer is:
fiends
'addicts' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'aims to support motor racing' is the wordplay.
'aims' becomes 'ends' (I've seen this before).
'to support' says to put letters next to each other (in a down clue, some letters hold others up).
'motor racing' becomes 'fi' (FI resembles F1, Formula 1).
'ends' put after 'fi' is 'FIENDS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fiends that I've seen before include "Addicts; devotees" , "Cruel, wicked and inhuman persons" , "Devils, monsters" , "Cruel people or evil spirits" , "Very wicked or cruel people" .)
