The first generation of the Kia e-Niro marked the arrival on the market of an electric crossover that satisfied those who were looking for an SUV and a compact at the same time. In 2022 the second arrived, with a radically different design, more interior space, keeping those contained dimensions that make it practical in the city and achieving very low consumption on daily trips. Technologically it was also updated with screens and technologies that we had seen in other SUVs of the brand, in the case of the Kia Sportage or the Kia Sorento. After testing it thoroughly, he continues to bet on making things easy for the driver, with good visibility, comfortable and he feels very poised at normal speeds. “Nice, isn’t it?”, which Robert De Niro said in the first generation ann...
After an intense weekend in the Austrian Grand Prixthe second with the sprint format of the season, Formula 1 takes a fast trip to the next stop on the calendar, the tenth race of the season: the British Grand Prix. max verstappen He leaves the Red Bull Ring more of a leader than ever and with his seventh victory of the year, fifth in a row, plus the sprint race. And he did it with such solvency and superiority that he allowed himself the luxury of making an extra stop to set the fastest lap and not leave any crumbs to his rivals. Not so good weekend had his partner Sergio Perez. The Mexican was left for the fourth consecutive time before time in qualifying, something that earned him a fight from Red Bull. And then another fell on him his action with Verstappen in the sprint race. However,...
When June arrives, many of us have several dates marked on the agenda: the date of the heat, the date of preparing the holidays and the date of the pride month. By way of closing the party, Škoda joins the LGBTQIA+ pride month celebrations by presenting the Respectline finish of its recent Enyaq Coupé. A finish in line with the values of Škoda and a very popular pride month around the world. Showing off a unique exterior and interior design, Škoda surprises us (for the better, in my case) with a declaration of intent that starts from its corporate manifesto and that highlights the importance of protecting the human rights and encourage respect towards all people (who do not care what they eat, kiss and pray) and towards the environment. In addition to this first part of the initiative, Š...
He Austrian Grand Prix ended with the victory of max verstappenthe podium of Charles Leclerc and Sergio Perez and the sixth final position of Fernando Alonso. However, these positions that seemed safe are not so much after a complaint from Aston Martin to the FIA stating that several drivers have not been penalized for track limits. Not exceeding the track limits became a main mission for all the pilots in the Red Bull Ring since the same Friday that they began shooting. In the qualifying session, 47 laps were cancelled, costing several drivers eliminations such as Sergio Pérez, who ended up starting 15th. In the race, more of the same was expected and it was. Carlos Sainz, Lewis Hamilton, Pierre Gasly, Esteban Ocon…many drivers were penalized five seconds for repeatedly exceeding ...
Special delivery Spielberg Updated Sunday, July 2, 2023 – 17:04 Two stops too slow in the box and a penalty for leaving the track leave the Spanish Ferrari without third place at the Red Bull Ring Sainz, in the pits, with his car.CHRISTIAN BRUNAEFE There are races left, many races, 13 races, and there is talent, even a car, but Carlos Sainz he is immersed in a dark season, an unfair year. Much effort, few celebrations. At the moment, there are eight tests and no podium: his worst streak since he was a Ferrari driver. This Sunday in Austria he was closer than ever this course and he also had to give up third place to Czech Prez. He finished fourth, just four seconds behind the Mexican. It was his fault, it was partly his fault, because he exceeded the limits of the track too many time...
Yes. There are certainly clues and clues. There are certainly circuits in those who of course do, others where yes, some where maybe… and others where not. In which there is no more. In which you have to fight. Struggle. In which you have to know that the protagonism will be of others. This is what has happened to Aston Martin. This is what has happened to Fernando Alonso. This is what has happened in Austria with respect to Canada. because if in the Gilles Villeneuve It was when we saw the least distance, under normal circumstances, between the AMR23 and Max Verstappen’s Red Bull, in Spielberg we saw an unbeatable RB19. To a superior Ferrari. and even to a McLaren, that of Lando Norris, with a great rhythm. We saw, throughout the weekend, an Aston Martin struggling. To a car t...
The show He is always present in the previews of the Formula 1 races. In Miami, in Bahrain, in Saudi Arabia… and also in Austria.But sometimes it doesn’t go well. And worse could have come out seeing what happened in the minutes before the green light at the Red Bull Ring. Because could end badly Very badly. Three people, dressed in some kind of ‘jet pack’, they began to fly over the Spielberg runway. Of the three, dAnd suddenly there was only one… and then none. Because in full direct, when the cameras focused on him, the last of the three ‘flying men’ he went to the ground. I was smiling, when suddenly it seems that one of the elements of the suit began to fail. Straight to the asphalt. The fall was clean. Rolling, he avoided further harm and the...
VERY GOOD DAYS Good morning and welcome to this minute by minute in which we will follow the Formula 1 Austrian Grand Prix race live. This race is preceded by a sprint yesterday in which Max Verstappen won with solvency, followed on the podium by Sergio Pérez and Carlos Sainz. Today the grill will be different. The Dutchman will continue to start from the first position, as usual, but Charles Leclerc will start from second place and Carlos Sainz from third to fuel Ferrari’s options. Fernando Alonso will start a little further back, seventh. The race will start at 3:00 p.m. Spanish time and you can follow here all the news that is happening at the Red Bull Ring. Let’s start.
High hopes Alonso had on this Saturday. On the Saturday of the sprint. On a day in which the first points of the weekend are already going to be distributed. It will be like that in the race, but for that race he had to qualify first. And there Fernando ‘clicked’ again. He repeated what he did on Friday. He once again scored a seventh that will make him need a great comeback to reach the podium in the Austrian GP. Both in the long and short race. Because this afternoon, this qualifying Saturday, he’s going to have to row. You will have, for example, in front of a surprising Nico Hulkenberg with the Haas. With a Haas with medium tires. Yes, American cars go very well in Spielberg. They go, it seems, better than the Aston Martin. At least in a short run, because we will hav...
Nico Hulkenberg It has been the big surprise of the classification to the sprint of Austria. The German, with a Haas that is doing very well at Spielberg, has classified fourth making a great display on the track and being a protagonist both there and in the pit lane. But in the pits it was not, far from it, for something good Because it could have ended badly, very badly, what happened when he changed tires in Q2. Because there, at that moment, he was very close to run over to one of the mechanics of his team. His car even jumped. He almost took off from the runway due to the tremendous impact with, fortunately, a tire. With the tire that the Haas worker was holding. However, some blow took the mechanic, because he limped up and with gestures of more than visible pain. meanwhile, race dir...
Fernando Alonso has already ‘practiced’ what can be the long race in Austria. The Asturian, sixth at the start of the Red Bull Ring, He finished fifth behind Lance Stroll in a short test in which at the end it seemed that he didn’t even want to attack his teammate. In an ending that could have been very different from what he tried at the beginning worked out for him. Because as soon as the traffic light went out, Alonso went into ‘magic’ mode for what would have been one of those starts. One of those direct top starts to the first places in the classification of Fernando’s starts in F1. It moved perfectly. Looking for all possible holes and any loophole and brawl in the noble zone. Yes, there was. Or, rather, there were. Because the two Red Bull almost ...
