Aston Martin is about to introduce a hotter version of the DBX. Supposedly called the DBX S, there have been several sightings of its prototypes since last year. The automaker then released its first teaser last week , which came with a bold claim that it's "the world's most powerful luxury SUV." Now, the third iteration of the Aston Martin DBX takes shape in another teaser, posted by the Gaydon-based automaker on its Facebook page. The teaser comes in the form of a shadowy image of the SUV on its side profile, showing some design deviations from its standard version. Based on the teaser, it seems like the DBX S will have a huge diffuser on its rear bumper, while the front splitter is also noticeably big at the front. Apart from its different wheel design, those two are the only apparent changes in the hotter DBX, though we're waging that there's more to see once the automaker finally reveals it in the metal on February 1, 2022. The supposed Aston Martin DBX S will stand … [Read more...] about Hotter Aston Martin DBX Takes Shape In Latest Teaser

McLaren CEO Zak Brown fears Formula 1’s current regulations are “diminishing” what it means to a “genuine constructor”. Formula 1’s powers-that-be have, in recent times, taken steps to try to ensure a level playing field for all 10 teams. That means a budget cap is in play, there are new technical regulations for this year’s championship, and there is a list of parts that teams can buy from one another. That list of parts has enabled Aston Martin, for the most part, to field a Mercedes F1 car, AlphaTauri to draw heavily from Red Bull, and the likes of Haas to lean on Ferrari. And that, Brown says, takes away from what being a constructor should be about. “The threat of A and B teams has not gone away, and it is vital that the governance of the sport is strengthened to prevent this,” the McLaren chief said. “The regulations, as they stand today, are heavily biased towards B teams/customer teams which is not in line with F1’s principle of a group of genuine constructors … [Read more...] about Threat of A and B teams has not gone away, warns Brown

The Williams Formula 1 development driver, who completed a W Series double in Austin last month, has instead expressed her intent to move up the single-seater ladder from the all-female series and also to undertake some sportscar racing in 2022. "The plan isn't return to W Series. I need to look at something else," Chadwick told Motorsport.com. "I've done it for two years and won it twice, and I think I need to showcase it as a leg-up and a platform for further opportunities. "I don't think it would make sense for me to return to W Series."

After being spotted in Paris, Flavio Briatore re-uniting with Fernando Alonso at Alpine is being called “very difficult”, but not impossible. Briatore is one of the most recognised, and controversial team bosses that Formula 1 has ever seen, possessing a keen eye for spotting emerging racing talent. He lured the now seven-time World Champion Michael Schumacher to Benetton following his stunning debut at the 1991 Belgian GP with Jordan, later recruiting another future multiple World Champion. This time it was Alonso, who he sent to Minardi for his rookie season in 2001, before the Spaniard earned his shot with Briatore’s Renault team from 2003. Alonso would then win back-to-back titles with the French manufacturer in 2005 and 2006. Alonso is now back in Formula 1 with the team rebranded to Alpine, marking his return season with a podium at the 2021 Qatar Grand Prix, scoring 81 points across the campaign as Alpine secured P5 in the Constructors’ Championship. It has been … [Read more...] about Briatore to Alpine is possible – report
