Great shots, op. You’ll get excellent results from whatever gear you choose.

If you’re giving up the 135GM for the 50-140 (I still own the 50-140) that would give me pause personally but that’s clearly your call. The 70-200 is pretty much the same size as the 50-140. X-H1 on the left, A1 on the right.

I miss a bit more reach when I use 135mm. I got free access to the race track, but I can't stand in the cars way
I had 100-400mm Sigma Contemporary and I did not like it. I just couldn't get acceptable photos with it as I do with 135mm GM. But I did like the way it squished the car against the background at 400mm.
I would surely be happy with A9 II and 70-200mm, but it's quite a bit expensive compared to H2s and 50-140mm and I'm not sure if I need FF and 61mpix. I always shoot during the day.
Also, A7r IV fps is is limiting the amount of good photos I can get. If I could squeeze another 10fps or so I'd probably have more keepers.
