The gaps between the top drivers at the end of qualifying for the 2013 Formula One Belgian Grand Prix were very close this morning. Mercedes AMG driver Lewis Hamilton managed to prove the quickest, despite some wet conditions. Hamilton’s time for the third session was 2:01.012, which was just ahead of Red Bull Racing’s Sebastian...
This week we received our best look yet at the upcoming 2015 Ford Mustang, or the S550 if you’re a die-hard fan. The styling of the car’s face has been revealed for the entire world to see and shows an aggressive look that borrows influences from both the outgoing model as well as Ford’s Evos concept car of 2011. Porsche’s...
Lexus’ GX 460 and CT 200h are the only models yet to receive the automaker’s new spindle grille treatment, but now we can prune that list down to just the CT 200h as Lexus has dropped the first photos and details for its 2014 GX 460 and they reveal a vehicle with some radical plastic surgery. In addition to the aforementioned grille...
Like its doppelganger, the Scion FR-S, the Subaru BRZ gets a small price increase for the 2014 model year, rising $100 to $26,390 (including delivery). A handful of equipment changes come with the slight price rise. Two trims are available: the manual-transmission-only Premium, or the automatic-optional Limited. Choosing the Limited trim adds a...
The future is going to be automatic. Automatic social updates pushed automatically to your mobile phone, synced automatically to your computer and to your car, which then drives you automatically to work where you automatically perform the tasks for which your employer automatically drops credits into your online bank account. Google wants to be...
While we have attempted to recover from the craziness that was Pebble Beach, we haven't had a moment to breathe. Instead, we jumped right back into it this week with coverage of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. We also spied the new 2015 Ford Mustang with barely any camouflage on its front end for the first time. Did we mention it looks a...
We love it, and we love to hate its marketing almost as much as we despise the overzealous, often ignorant coverage in the press. First, Tesla insists on listing prices with government incentives--which buyers don't always qualify for--already deducted. Then we didn't get the more affordable 40-kWh Model S. Then we were told the Model S could cost...
Most of the racing world has expressed doubt or outright disbelief that Formula 1 and race organizers would be able to pull off a grand prix in the New York City area. Now Bernie Ecclestone has put an end to the idea--for now, at least. Like any terrible/great idea, it will likely continue to grow back from its roots every few years. But for now...
The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is probably etched into your retinas with the frequency of its appearance on your computer monitor, smartphone, and tablet of late. But there's a very good reason for that. It's a very good sports car. It's also quite popular with enthusiasts, it seems, with about 75 percent of early adopters ordering the Z51...
The circuit at Spa Francorchamps is a tricky, history-rich set of elevation-changing curves. From catastrophic accidents to utterly brilliant passes, it highlights both car and driver in a way few modern F1 circuits manage. Fortunately, you don't have to book a flight to Belgium and find a few hundred million dollars in sponsorship money to lap...
Weather is often very changeable in the area surrounding the Spa-Francorchamps circuit, home of the Formula One Belgian Grand Prix. We’ve already seen this during the earlier practice session on Friday, where intermittent rain fell throughout much of the session. The current weather prediction for this weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix is...
Need For Speed games, like the Fast and Furious movies they mimicked for a few years in the mid-2000s, are a bit of a guilty pleasure. The crazy driving, running from the police and modifying your car is all a bit of a release after another stressful day. And the new game, Need For Speed Rivals, looks to be more than the same, in the latest...
