  • Valentino Rossi at the wheel of the Ferrari 488 Pista

    The new Ferrari 488 Pista was put through its paces by a very special test-driver today – none other than Valentino Rossi. The Moto GP champion, who just finished third in the Qatar GP, could not resist the opportunity to try out Ferrari’s latest car when he dropped by Maranello. Valentino gave full vent to the twin-turbo V8’s massive 720 CV on the Fiorano track, proving he is as skilled on four wheels as two.

  • Colombian entrepreneurs design a bubble helmet to protect against Covid-19

    Bogota, July 27 (EFE), (Camera: Juan Diego Lopez) - A group of Colombian entrepreneurs have developed a bubble like the one used by astronauts to protect those who use it during the coronavirus pandemic. Through an electrical system, this security bubble circulates air, with the ultimate goal of protecing people from illnesses such as the coronavirus.FOOTAGE OF PROTECTIVE BUBBLES AND SOUNDBITES BY ANDRES FELIPE GIRALDO CEO.TRANSLATIONS:"They have three main aspects, one is positive pressure, that is to say that the pressure inside the bubble is greater than the atmospheric one, making the air go out instead of entering.""We are currently operating at a very low production level because we do not have molds for massive manufacturing processes. The focus of the next phase is to obtain financing, with both sales and with investors. We hope to be able to make moulds and to get massiv e lines that can lead us to produce 2,000 masks a day."

  • Emotional and highly dynamic - The design of the MINI John Cooper Works GP

    The new MINI John Cooper Works GP has model-specific design features that make its standing as an exceptional athlete unmistakable right from the starting line. These also make a significant contribution to the car's driving characteristics - namely stability and precise controllability even in highly dynamic situations. The body, which has been modified in detail, primarily optimises the car's aerodynamic balance and the targeted supply of cooling air to the drive units and brake system. The large roof spoiler with double wing contours, the model-specific design of the front apron surround known as the Blackband and the front spoiler lip of the new MINI John Cooper Works GP form a precisely coordinated package designed to reduce lift. As a result, lift values on the front and rear axles are significantly reduced as compared to the MINI John Cooper Works.In addition, the front apron has particularly large air intakes. The roof spoiler, which extends far beyond the side line, has a key role to play in optimising driving dynamics. With its reversed wing profile, it generates maximum downforce with the lowest possible aerodynamic drag in order to press the vehicle onto the road at high speeds.
