THE END OF AN ERA? SERGIO PÉREZ AND HIS POSSIBLE EXIT FROM RED BULL IN 2024 🏁🇲🇽

Sergio Spinoza / Formula 1 / en / December 17, 2024

The future of the Mexican driver in Formula 1 remains uncertain as Red Bull finalizes its lineup for 2025. CRUCIAL DECISIONS IN MILTON KEYNES 🏎️🇲🇽 Mexican driver Sergio ‘Checo’ Pérez might be nearing the end of his time with the Red Bull Racing team. The Austrian team is reportedly considering announcing before Christmas 🎄 that young New Zealand driver Liam Lawson will replace him for the 2025 season. Since the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Pérez has held meetings with Red Bull’s top management in Milton Keynes, where his future options are being discussed. While Pérez is under contract until 2025, his performance over recent months has raised doubts and sparked speculation. A NEW DESTINATION FOR CHECO? 🌍🚗 Among the possibilities for Sergio Pérez’s future is a role as a Red Bull ambassador ✨, involving appearances at marketing and promotional events. However, he could also choose to cut ties with the team to explore opportunities in other motorsport categories. One of the most notable options is joining General Motors’ Cadillac team, which plans to enter the Formula 1 grid in 2026 🚀. This move would allow Pérez to stay active in motorsport while potentially paving the way for a return to the top category in the future. THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE: A TOUGH SEASON 📉🏆 Checo Pérez’s performance has been under scrutiny following a second half of the season with below-par results. Since the Dutch Grand Prix, Pérez has scored only 21 points, with his standout performance in Zandvoort earning him 8 points. However, his results in the Austin, Mexico City, and Las Vegas Grands Prix were disappointing. On the other hand, while Red Bull remains silent, Pérez surprised team staff with a holiday gesture, gifting them bottles of his tequila as a Christmas present 🥂🎁. A GRID IN CONSTANT FLUX 🔄⚙️ The 2025 season promises significant changes in Formula 1. Lewis Hamilton will take his iconic number 44 to Ferrari 🏎️🔴, Carlos Sainz will join Williams, and young prodigy Andrea Kimi Antonelli will take a seat at Mercedes-Benz. Meanwhile, Red Bull seems to be betting on youth, with Liam Lawson ready to step into Pérez’s seat following an impressive stint with their junior team. PÉREZ’S FUTURE IN LIMBO 🌟🤷 Although the official 2025 lineup still lists Sergio Pérez as a Red Bull driver, uncertainty surrounds his career. According to sources close to ESPN, ‘Checo’ Pérez is expected to leave Red Bull Racing. Is this the farewell for Checo in Formula 1? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: his legacy in Mexican motorsport is already secured. 🇲🇽✨

The Italian manufacturer reaffirms its presence in Formula 1 with a key agreement for General Motors and Cadillac’s new team. A MAJOR STEP FOR GM/CADILLAC IN F1 Ferrari officially announced that it will supply power units and gearboxes to the GM/Cadillac F1 team starting from the 2026 season. This agreement marks a significant milestone for General Motors, which aims to join the Formula 1 World Championship as the eleventh team, pending approval from the FIA and championship organizers. The announcement follows months of speculation and comes after Formula 1 provisionally endorsed Cadillac’s entry into the grid in November. Earlier in December, Graeme Lowdon, former sporting director of Marussia, was appointed to lead the project. FERRARI: A STRATEGIC ALLIANCE Ferrari’s director, Fred Vasseur, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, emphasizing the growing popularity of Formula 1 in the United States: “It’s exciting to see the commitment of a new American team backed by such an iconic brand as Cadillac. This alliance ensures that we will continue working with two ‘customer teams,’ which drives technical development within Ferrari.” Ferrari currently collaborates with other customer teams, a model that not only strengthens its position on the grid but also allows for data sharing and optimization of its technology development. GM/CADILLAC: AN AMBITIOUS UNDERTAKING Graeme Lowdon, leader of the GM/Cadillac F1 project, welcomed the decision to partner with Ferrari as their technical supplier. In his words: “Choosing the partner for our power unit was crucial, and Ferrari meets our expectations thanks to its excellence, passion, and unique capabilities.” The Cadillac team aims to leverage the prestige of both brands to establish a successful entry into the pinnacle of motorsport. A PROMISING FUTURE FOR F1 IN THE UNITED STATES The addition of Cadillac to Formula 1 aligns with a significant surge in the sport’s popularity in the United States, fueled by new events and a growing audience. This project strengthens the presence of North American teams and promises a positive impact on both the competition and its fan base. With this agreement, Ferrari showcases its ability to remain a cornerstone of technical development in Formula 1, while Cadillac takes its first steps toward a future that could reshape the grid dynamics. Could this partnership become a turning point in the recent history of the category?

2024 SEASON: A RECORD-BREAKING YEAR IN FORMULA 1

Sergio Spinoza / Formula 1 / en / December 10, 2024

Formula 1 experienced a year of unforgettable milestones and iconic moments that will forever be etched in the history of motorsport. From individual achievements to collective feats, 2024 was a season that redefined the boundaries of competition. FERNANDO ALONSO: THE KING OF GRAND PRIX Spanish veteran Fernando Alonso reached an incredible 400 Grand Prix starts, solidifying his place as the driver with the most participations in history. This milestone was celebrated during the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix, with his 400th start officially marked in Qatar. With over 20 years on the track, Alonso remains a beacon in Formula 1, while rival Lewis Hamilton, with over 350 races, is the only active driver who could come close to this record. A UNPRECEDENTED EVENT: THE FIRST SUSPENSION Danish driver Kevin Magnussen made history as the first driver suspended after accumulating 12 penalty points on his super license. The incident occurred following a collision with Pierre Gasly in Italy, costing Magnussen his participation in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, where he was replaced by young talent Oliver Bearman. This event serves as a reminder of the sport’s stringent regulations. THE RETURN OF THE BLACK FLAG For the first time in 17 years, the black flag, a symbol of disqualification, was waved during the Brazilian Grand Prix. Nico Hülkenberg was penalized after receiving external assistance to rejoin the track—an action prohibited by the rules. This rare occurrence highlighted the strictness of the regulations in the pinnacle of motorsport. FERRARI’S DOMINANCE ON THE PODIUM Ferrari, the most iconic team in Formula 1, achieved two new 1-2 finishes in the Australian and Austin Grands Prix. Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc extended the Italian team’s historic leadership with 87 double podiums, further distancing themselves from Mercedes, which secured its 60th 1-2 in Las Vegas. SEVEN WINNERS IN A COMPETITIVE SEASON Unlike 2023, the 2024 championship saw seven different drivers claim victory at the top of the podium: Max Verstappen, Carlos Sainz, Charles Leclerc, Lando Norris, George Russell, Lewis Hamilton, and Oscar Piastri. Each driver secured multiple wins, representing four different teams. HAMILTON SETS NEW PERSONAL RECORDS Lewis Hamilton not only extended his victory record to 105 wins but also established himself as the driver with the most wins at a single Grand Prix, with nine victories at Silverstone. BROTHERS MAKE HISTORY For the first time, two brothers, Charles and Arthur Leclerc, competed for the same team, Ferrari, during an official session at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. This unique occurrence marked a historic milestone in Formula 1’s 74 seasons. VERSTAPPEN: LEGENDARY FOUR-TIME CHAMPION Max Verstappen secured his fourth consecutive title in Las Vegas, joining the ranks of legends like Fangio, Prost, Schumacher, Vettel, and Hamilton. This achievement cements his status as a pivotal figure in Formula 1 history. The 2024 season not only broke records but also proved that the excitement and competition in Formula 1 are more alive than ever.

GUIDE TO MOTORCYCLE PHONE MOUNTS

Sergio Spinoza / Automotive industry / en / December 9, 2024

Motorcycle phone mounts have become an essential accessory for modern riders. With the rise of smartphones and navigation apps, having a proper mount ensures safer and more comfortable rides. There are various options available in the market, each tailored to different needs and riding styles. HANDLEBAR MOUNTS: PRACTICAL AND ADJUSTABLE One of the most common types is the handlebar mount, which attaches directly to the motorcycle’s handlebar. Its design offers direct and convenient access to your phone, making it ideal for following routes or receiving notifications. Equipped with adjustable clamps and non-slip materials, these mounts are compatible with various phone sizes. Additionally, they often include a 360° rotation feature, allowing the rider to adjust the device’s position to their preference. REARVIEW MIRROR MOUNTS: AN EFFICIENT ALTERNATIVE The rearview mirror mount is an excellent solution for those who want to keep the handlebar clear. This model uses the mirror’s screw as the attachment point, leaving space for other accessories. Like handlebar mounts, it offers adjustable angles and rotation options, providing optimal visibility without obstructing the rider’s view. MAGNETIC MOUNTS FOR THE TANK Designed for motorcycles with metal tanks, magnetic mounts stand out for their quick and easy installation. These accessories use powerful magnets to securely hold the phone in place. While practical for short trips, they may not be the best option for uneven terrain or high speeds, as vibrations and wind could affect their stability. SUCTION MOUNTS: EASY TO INSTALL Suction mounts are a popular choice due to their ease of installation, adhering to smooth surfaces through suction. Although commonly used in cars, some models are compatible with motorcycles that have windshields or smooth tanks. However, it’s important to note that the grip may weaken over time or with temperature changes. WATERPROOF MOUNTS: TOTAL PROTECTION For riders covering long distances or facing variable weather conditions, waterproof mounts are the best choice. Equipped with sealed cases, they protect the phone from water, dust, and other elements. Their design allows interaction with the touchscreen through a transparent membrane. However, it’s crucial to avoid device overheating on sunny days, as the fully enclosed cover may retain heat. CHOOSE THE RIGHT MOUNT FOR YOUR MOTORCYCLE Selecting the best mount depends on your motorcycle’s design and the type of ride. For short city trips, handlebar or rearview mirror mounts are ideal, while for long journeys or extreme weather, a waterproof mount ensures greater safety. Stability, ease of installation, and compatibility with various phone sizes are key factors to consider when choosing. Regardless of your riding style, motorcycle phone mounts are indispensable allies for enhancing your road experience.
