Why F1 the Movie is such a big deal

F1 The Movie on Google Play.
The popularity of F1 racing is skyrocketing in the U.S. and worldwide, fueled in part by the successful Netflix series Formula 1: Drive to Survive. The seventh season of Drive to Survive, launched in early March 2025, provided viewers with familiarity with F1 drivers and teams during the 2024 season, preceding the start of the F1 2025 Grand Prix schedule.

During the 2025 season, which celebrates the motorsport’s 75th anniversary, there are three Grand Prix races in the U.S., in Miami, Austin, and Las Vegas. Cadillac’s F1 team, which will comprise an 11th team on the starting grid in the 2026 season, will join Haas as the second American-owned team and the only team that supplies its own power units. F1 The Movie, in addition to scoring a hit for Brad Pitt as his biggest opening film and for Apple Original Films, should continue to fuel growth in fan interest.

25 years of Fast & Furious legacy all at the tip of your fingers

Petersen Automotive Museum is giving you the chance to see the cars that raced into our hearts with Dom and Brian.

Car, Car Show, Transportation

Yesterday marked 25 years since the release of one of the greatest movies of our generation. Two and a half decades since Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) went undercover with the Toretto family to scour the world of illegal street racing in search of those responsible for truck heists. Of course, who could resist the idea that family conquers all and the charm of the patriarch, Dominic (Vin Diesel), and his sister, Mia (Jordana Brewster). However you may feel about the ten movies that followed (that is right...TEN), the original The Fast and the Furious redefined an entire automotive culture for a new century. I mean, truly, how did Tej (Ludacris) go from garage owning gear head in Miami to super hacker with no explanation? Anyway, if you are like me, you loved the ridiculous cars that have shown up through the years, and that means you will be excited to know that the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles expanded their "Fast & Furious Legacy" exhibit to include all of your favorite super machines.

Maserati refreshes its entire lineup for the 2027 model year

A more powerful engine, a new front end, and several features now available as standard

Maserati's 2027 lineup of vehicles

A new face, a luxury touch on everything you interact with, and a not insignificant power boost to one of the most interesting V6 engines on the planet. These are the highlights of Maserati’s 2027 lineup. Though it’s technically a bit of a mid-cycle refresh, no new vehicles are being released, there are still some notable differences between the upcoming Maseratis and their 2026 equivalents. It’s Maserati’s biggest string of updates since last year’s MCPura launch, with several supercar-inspired tweaks making their way to the likes of the GranTurismo and GranCabrio.

The Maserati GranTurismo and GranCabrio both benefit from an extra 40 horsepower, with the 3-liter V6 Nettuno engine under the hood now pumping out 582 horsepower at its peak. Overall responsiveness of the engine and transmission has been improved too, due to an updated calibration, and the sound-boosting Sportivo exhaust now comes as standard with all ICE Maseratis. Both vehicles, along with the Folgore, also come with a more aggressive front end. The reworked air intakes arguably stand out most on the new fascia, though the large front splitter and “shark nose” styling are both very apparent.
