Bergen norway concerts

Let’s all celebrate #WorldDrivingDay. For the first time in the history of Saudi Arabia, women are now allowed to drive. This move was announced last year in September , as part of the Kingdom’s effort to remove the country’s reputation of repressing women’s rights. These efforts include re-opening of public cinemas for the first time since the 1980s, the lifting of a ban on music concerts, and plans to allow women into sports stadiums. To celebrate this joyous occasion, woman racer Aseel Al Hamad laps a race track in Saudi Arabia in an F-Type . The moment is emotional for Al Hamad, as this is the first time that she’s driven a car in her own country, more so, on a race track. She’s the first female board member of the Saudi Arabian Motor Federation, and serves as the Saudi Arabian representative at Women in Motorsport Commission for FIA. Saudi Arabia and female drivers: Women just got the right to drive in Saudi Arabia The collaboration with Jaguar … [Read more...] about Al Hamad laps track in Saudi Arabia as women driving ban lifts

Few would voluntarily get up at 3:30 in the morning to catch a flight to the other end of the country. But when Volkswagen Motorsport India offered us a chance to drive its range of touring cars, it was easy for us to overlook the flight timings. And so we arrived in Chennai in the early hours of the day, ready to hit the recently renovated track adjacent to the highway to Bangalore. Volkswagen India is entering the 10th year of its motorsport programme in 2019 and it wanted to celebrate the landmark moment in style. It assembled its entire fleet of race cars, right from the original Polo Cup car to the 200 bhp Ameo Cup beast, for a mega track day. Also on hand was the latest rear-engined Polo RX as well as the company’s two Polo-based rally cars. But the best part of all was that they let us poor souls, the journalists who closely follow the action from the sidelines, hop into the cars and get a glimpse of what’s it like to be a racing driver. Having never … [Read more...] about The racing driver experience: Volkswagen Cup cars driven at MMRT

There's a 2.0 Mazda-sourced engine under the hood. Hurtan is a Granada-based small-scale automaker, focused on building retro-looking vehicles with modern technologies. About two months ago, the Spanish company unveiled its Grand Albaycin roadster based on the Mazda MX-5 , and now there’s a new version of that car. Just like Mazda has a hardtop version of the two-seater, Hurtan is launching the Grand Albaycin Bespoke based on the MX-5 Miata RF. Logically, this means the soft-top mechanism is replaced by an automatic hardtop roof, which can be finished in a different color compared to the rest of the body for a two-tone paint scheme. Gallery: Hurtan Grand Albaycín Bespoke 5 Photos Other than the hardtop, the sports car looks identical to the model introduced in January. One major difference though is the lack of the entry-level 1.5-liter engine. The Miata RF-based roadster will be … [Read more...] about Hurtan Grand Albaycín Bespoke Is A Miata RF With Euro Influences

Pastrana, whose list of achievements includes 11 X Games gold medals and four Rally America titles, is also the co-creator of the Nitro Circus action sports franchise, Nitro World Games and the upcoming Nitro Rallycross Series. Pastrana will return for his ninth ROC appearance at the event's first-ever edition on snow and ice, which is set to take place in early 2022 in Pite Havsbad, Sweden on the frozen Baltic Sea. “Race of Champions is such a prestigious and unique event,” said Pastrana. "It’s an honour to be able to compete against so many icons and legends from all disciplines of racing. "I don’t know who my teammate on Team USA will be yet. It would be nice to team up for example with NASCAR Champion Jimmie Johnson again and try to do even better than we did at Wembley Stadium in England. "But whoever my teammate is, we will aim to win it all." The 37-year-old's previous ROC appearances include reaching the individual semi-finals in Paris 2005 despite … [Read more...] about Extreme sports legend Pastrana joins ROC 2022 line-up

It looks a whole lot like the example in previous photos. Cadillac Vice President of North America Sales, Service, and Marketing Mahmoud Samara celebrated on LinkedIn about the milestone of pre-production testing of the Cadillac Lyriq now being underway at General Motors' test center in Michigan. The brand's premium, electric crossover goes into production in roughly a year during the first quarter of 2022. The comparison below shows the pre-production model on the left and the photo on the right is the previously revealed version of the Lyriq. They are very similar. The pillars look a bit thicker. The rear wheel well doesn't appear to cut into the back door as much on the camouflaged car as on the other one. When Cadillac released the uncovered images of the Lyriq, it said the pictured vehicle was 85 percent finished. So the small tweaks visible on this pre-production model make sense.
