Why F1 and the World Cup are playing the same commercial game | Sector

The minority stake available in Alpine continues to be available but the sale is far more nuanced. All the key figures have now spoken: The investor, the buyer, the seller, the rival and the regulator. @sectordotworld covers the state of play: sector.world/2026/05/the-24-…

The 24 per cent Alpine F1 stake - the state of play | Sector

A stake in the BWT Alpine F1 Team is on the market and the battle to acquire it has become one of the most politically charged stories in the paddock

As the uncertainty over McLaren’s impending double disqualification hung over the crisp Las Vegas air, one thing was in no doubt.  This is now the rightful home of modern Formula 1.  sector.world/2025/11/opinion…

OPINION: Modern F1 should be proud to call Las Vegas home | Sector

Nowhere else showcases the commercial, cultural and entertainment ambitions of today's Formula 1 product

Mad the FIA will do stewards enquiries in order they were issued. We are currently getting a bunch of "no further action" verdicts for SC stuff while the race result itself remains in doubt, with the Red Bull verdict still to come. Hard to imagine other sports doing the same.

This, from the great @Giles_Richards, is a great read. Feels like the sort of warts-and-all interview we are sadly seeing less and less of in today's top-tier sport. theguardian.com/sport/2025/a…

Lando Norris: ‘You don’t have to have a killer instinct to be world champion’

Love the idea of Russell winning world championship as McLarens take points off each other all year. *Exactly* like 1999 when David Ginola won FWA Footballer of the Year because the Man Utd treble-winning team split all the votes.

Massive win for Hamilton but boring the amount of tyre management in a 19-lap "sprint". Like Usain Bolt running 100m in 25 seconds because he was wearing the wrong trainers.

It might be a challenge but, as Hamilton riffs in his modern-day Ferris Bueller cameo before driving off in a Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder: “Relax. You fellas have nothing to worry about, I’m a professional.”

F1 today announced Belvedere as its official vodka partner, yet @MMBonF1 says this is a step too far in the championship's bid for an ever-expanding portfolio 🤝 autosport.com/f1/news/mark-m…

Mark Mann-Bryans: Having an ‘official vodka’ feels like a step too far for F1’s partnership push

OPINION: Belvedere has been announced as the first-ever official vodka partner of F1 as part of the $1billion LVMH deal, but it isn’t an avenue that the series should go down with its partnership push
