CNN —Just four races into the Formula One season, Mercedes boss Toto Wolff believes the title is Max Verstappen’s to lose after another dominant win for the Red Bull driver. At the Japanese Grand Prix on Sunday, three-time world champion Verstappen finished 13 seconds ahead of teammate Sergio Pérez, who was eight seconds ahead of Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz in third. Last month, Sainz won the Australian Grand Prix when Verstappen was forced to retire from the race. This is what it is this year.”Toto Wolff was left lamenting Mercedes' slow start to the season after the Japanese Grand Prix. That leaves Mercedes fourth in the constructor standings behind McLaren, Ferrari, and back-to-back champion Red Bull.

☆ Solid state batteries promise to radically change EVs. But they may not be the only answer

Car companies including Stellantis, Hyundai and Volkswagen have also teamed up with firms working on solid state batteries. But solid state technology has its own challenges, and it’s not the only way automakers could achieve lighter, cheaper and faster charging electric vehicles. In a solid state battery, the electrolyte is, well, a solid. That solid electrolyte is one reason that solid state batteries might be safer than lithium-ion batteries. Ultimately, there probably will never be one battery technology used in all EVs, GM spokesperson Phil Lienert said.

Only three drivers have won more races in the history of the sport and Verstappen could have passed Sebastian Vettel, next in his sights on 53, by the end of the season. The win was also his 14th in the last 15 races and a fifth in six editions of the grand prix at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. Second is a priority for dominant Red Bull who have never yet finished a season with their drivers first and second. The race resumed from a standing re-start, with Verstappen accelerating into the distance and Leclerc second on the hard tyres but seven-times world champion Hamilton right behind on mediums. Verstappen had seized the safety car period as an opportunity for a cheap second pitstop and some fresh hards while Leclerc had pitted just before Magnussen's accident.

I am happy for the team," the Frenchman told Reuters as he walked to the pitlane for a celebratory group photograph. On Sunday, in Alpine's 50th race under that branding, Gasly was seventh and the team overtook McLaren for fifth in the constructors' standings. "I’m proud of them and they should be proud too," said Rossi. Ocon, a winner in Hungary in 2021 with Alpine, said his third career podium capped a "superb weekend" for the team and hoped it was the start of something bigger. "From the simulator to really all the practice sessions, we improved the car from beginning to end and we didn't make a wrong foot any time," said the first Frenchman on the Monaco podium since Olivier Panis in 1996.

Despite more competitive sessions, fans were left disappointed with the lack of overtaking in last week’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix. What happened last yearIn last year’s inaugural Miami Grand Prix, Ferrari locked out the front row in qualifying with Charles Leclerc taking pole position and teammate Carlos Sainz starting P2. Max Verstappen is the only previous winner of the Miami Grand Prix. Only a chaotic Australian Grand Prix, in which Pérez began from the pit lane after crashing in qualifying, has prevented a perfect start for Red Bull.

☆ Lots of sporting buzz in Miami but can F1 deliver?
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-04 | by ( Steve Keating | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +4 min

Once again in a league of their own, Red Bull have won every grand prix this season, with three of the four races one-two finishes. While Miami can deliver plenty of Monaco like pizzazz, the action on the track could also be similar to Monte Carlo with precious little overtaking. Double world champion Max Verstappen (93) leads Red Bull team mate Sergio Perez (87) in the drivers standings and a resurgent Alonso a distant third on 60 points. Hamilton's team mate George Russell had a tongue-and-cheek solution, forget about Red Bull and dive into the battle for third place.

April 29 (Reuters) - Max Verstappen swore angrily at Mercedes rival George Russell after a first lap clash in Saturday's Baku sprint race ripped a hole in the Formula One champion's Red Bull. Verstappen and Russell exchanged words after the race, television microphones picking up Verstappen hinting at future revenge and calling Russell a 'dickhead' as the Briton walked away. "I respect all the drivers a lot and its a bit of commonsense as well what you do on the first lap," Verstappen told Sky Sports. "I don't think anything would have been any different had the positions been reversed." Verstappen starts from the front row in Sunday's main grand prix, alongside Ferrari's pole-sitter Charles Leclerc, with Russell lining up 11th.

▼ + stars: | 2022-12-26 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

SEOUL, Dec 26 (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics (005930.KS) plans to increase chip production capacity at its largest semiconductor plant next year, despite forecasts of an economic slowdown, a South Korean newspaper reported late on Sunday. Samsung plans to expand its P3 factory in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, by adding 12-inch wafers capacity for DRAM memory chips, the Seoul Economic Daily reported, citing unnamed industry sources. It will also expand the plant with additional 4-nanometre chip capacity, which will be made under foundry contracts - that is, according to clients' designs - the paper said. P3, which started production of cutting-edge NAND flash memory chips this year, is the company's largest chip manufacturing facility. In October it said it was not considering intentionally cutting chip production, defying the broader industry's tendency to scale back output to meet mid- to long-term demand.

Little-known Insmed could take off as one of its drugs with conditional approval and another in development show promise, according to Barclays. Analyst Leon Wang initiated the stock as overweight with a price target of $37, which presents a 94.9% upside from Wednesday's close. The company focuses on pulmonology-focused commercial biotech, with two major medications for bronchiectasis, which is when airways in lungs are widened, and a lung disease. Assuming strong data out of the third trial, Wang said the medication could hit the market in 2025. He said Insmed will likely surpass sales guidance, which was already set for a 30% year-over-year increase, in 2022.

Supply & Demand — free market On the Y-axis (the vertical one on the left) we have price. The demand line slopes from the upper left to the bottom right, and the supply line goes from the bottom left to the upper right. To illustrate this tight supply, we shift our supply line to the left as moving left on the X-axis indicates a lower quantity of supply. Supply & Demand — supply constrained market As we can see above, this small shift in supply — with no change in demand — creates a new equilibrium point at which we see a higher price level (P2). Supply & Demand — supply constrained with demand destruction By lowering demand, we can reach a new equilibrium level (marked in red).

Potrivit New York Times, Shi Zhengli a răspuns apoi cu o negaţie insistentă atunci când a fost întrebată dacă laboratorul său a avut în posesia sa o tulpină a noului coronavirus înainte de pandemie. De asemenea, ea a dezminţit informaţiile, publicate în presa americană, potrivit cărora trei cercetători de la institutul Wuhan au fost internaţi în noiembrie 2019, prezentând simptome compatibile cu COVID-19, dar şi cu cele ale unei "infecţii sezoniere". Shi Zhengli a respins şi acuzaţiile de manipulare genetică periculoasă, în special răspândite în Statele Unite de către unii parlamentari republicani. Întrebată de New York Times cu privire la această chestiune, responsabila chineză a spus că nu a condus niciodată experimente de tipul "câştig de funcţie" "vizând să crească virulenţa virusului". ", a izbucnit ea la început, dorind apoi să continue prin e-mail, citând regulile institutului din oraşul care a fost primul epicentru al pandemiei de coronavirus.
