JD Sports Goes 'From the Mountain, to the Street' With Joe James and the Salomon XT-6
Making its mark among athletes, explorers and outdoor enthusiasts alike, the XT-6 was originally designed for ultra-distance races across various terrains.

Fusing technical innovation with stand-out design features, the sneaker's highly durable overlays, cushioned midsole, extra gripped outsole as well as signature Salomon Quicklace™ lacing system, have made the XT-6 a go-to silhouette for trail-to-city activities.
Continuing its commitment to champion local stars, JD Sports enlists East London native and Salomon Sportstyle ambassadorJoe Jamesto front its debut campaign for the outdoor brand. As a rising voice in culture, the artist has garnered a cult following for his lyricism and presence within the city's streetwear scene. Possessing an authentic relationship with fashion and the outdoors, Joe James' versatility embraces the sneaker's roots as well as its current bridge into the lifestyle realm.
The campaign visuals capture the sneaker in its natural element, both in the city and outdoors, with the artist sporting this season's two highlighted colorways: 'Cloud/Iron/Ultra' and 'Black/Grey/Orange.'
Retailing for £165 GBP (approx. $220 USD), both of the Salomon XT-6 sneakers are available to purchase from JD Sports now.

F1 Owner Expands Motorsport Empire with MotoGP Takeover
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The owner of Formula One, Liberty Media Corporation, confirmed on July 3 that it has completed the purchase of MotoGP rights holder Dorna Sports. Apart from F1, Quint, and other minority investments, the American organization now lists MotoGP as a subsidiary. Liberty Media, a renowned player in the sports, media, and entertainment sector, acquired 84 percent of Dorna. The remaining 16 percent is held by the MotoGP management. The news arrives days after Newsweek Sports reported that Liberty Media was granted unconditional approval for the acquisition of Dorna for a reported $4.4 billion. Confirming the transaction, MotoGP stated: Team Ducati Lenovo Team's Marc Marquez (R) leads the race at the start of the MotoGP Aragon Grand Prix at the Motorland circuit in Alcaniz, northeastern Spain, on June 8, 2025. Team Ducati Lenovo Team's Marc Marquez (R) leads the race at the start of the MotoGP Aragon Grand Prix at the Motorland circuit in Alcaniz, northeastern Spain, on June 8, 2025. JOSE JORDAN / AFP/Getty Images "Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty Media") (Nasdaq: FWONA, FWONK, LLYVA, LLYVK) and Dorna Sports, S.L. ("Dorna"), the exclusive commercial rights holder of the MotoGP™ World Championship ("MotoGP"), announced today that Liberty Media has completed its acquisition of Dorna. "Following transaction close, Liberty Media's Formula One Group is composed of its subsidiaries Formula 1, MotoGP, and Quint, and other minority investments." The takeover of MotoGP was supposed to conclude last year, but given the high-profile nature of the acquisition, the deal was under the European Union's lens, which carried out an investigation to understand the deal's impact on broadcasters and streaming platforms, especially given that two motorsport giants, F1 and MotoGP, would belong to a common owner. Following the European Union's approval, Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna, who will continue to manage MotoGP, said in a statement: "We are very happy that the European Commission has approved the transaction. This is an important milestone confirming the even brighter future that lies ahead for MotoGP. "MotoGP is one of the most thrilling sports on Earth, and we look forward to accelerating the sport's growth and expanding its reach to even more fans around the world. Liberty is the best possible partner for our sport and the entire MotoGP community, and we are excited to create even greater value for our fans, commercial partners and everyone competing." Liberty Media President and CEO, Derek Chang said: "Today's approval from the European Commission marks the final condition to closing Liberty's acquisition of MotoGP. We are thrilled to officially commence Liberty's partnership with Carmelo and his excellent management team. "MotoGP is a highly attractive premium sports asset with incredible racing, a passionate fanbase and a strong cash flow profile. We believe the sport and brand have significant growth potential, which we will look to realize through deepening the connection with the core fan base and expanding to a wider global audience." Considering the success F1 has witnessed since its acquisition by Liberty Media in 2017, and its expansion into new markets such as America, one could expect MotoGP to grow in a similar manner.

What's the best window layout for your patio or porch?
Adding a porch or patio enclosure is a great way to create an inviting space that connects your home to the outdoors. But one of the most important design decisions you'll make is choosing the right window layout. The window configuration not only affects the look of your enclosure but also impacts airflow, privacy, light, and overall functionality. Here's how to make the best choice for your space. Start with how you'll use the space Relaxation, dining, or entertaining Think about how you plan to use your enclosed porch. Is it your morning coffee spot? A space for hosting friends? A cozy reading nook? Each function benefits from a slightly different window layout. For example, a dining area might benefit from wider openings for ventilation, while a quiet lounge space may prioritize clear sightlines and more fixed windows to reduce noise and wind. Seasonal vs. extended use Is this space only for summer? Or do you want to extend your usage into spring and fall? If you're aiming for three-season comfort, opt for flexible window systems like WeatherMaster™ by Sunspace, which offer adjustable ventilation and protection from wind, rain, and bugs without the weight or cost of traditional glass. Top window layouts to consider Full-height windows This popular layout features floor-to-ceiling window panels that offer a stunning, uninterrupted view of the outdoors. It maximizes natural light and gives the room a more open, airy feel. When paired with operable panels, it's also excellent for airflow. Knee-wall with windows above A knee-wall is a short wall (usually 24–36 inches high) with windows installed above. This layout adds structure and a sense of coziness, making it ideal for furniture placement or added privacy. It's a smart choice in cooler climates or when you want to protect the bottom portion of your enclosure from wear and tear. Mixed fixed and operable panels A layout that combines fixed panels (for clean views and insulation) with operable sliders or 4-track vinyl windows gives you the best of both worlds. You can maintain a sleek design while still having plenty of control over airflow and access to fresh air. Balancing function and design Airflow and privacy Windows play a key role in keeping your porch comfortable. Vertical or horizontal sliders allow for adjustable ventilation, while tints and layout choices can provide extra privacy from neighbors or the street. Consider using darker tint options like bronze or smoke grey in areas that get intense sun or where privacy is a concern. These options reduce glare while still letting in plenty of natural light. Framing your view and matching your home Your window layout should complement your existing home style. A modern house may call for a minimalist grid with large, clean panels, while a traditional home may look best with more detailed framing. Don't forget to frame your best views: align window openings with sightlines to gardens, lakes, or patios. Custom planning with WeatherMaster™ systems: ask the experts at br lifestyles As certified Sunspace dealers in Coe Hill, BR Lifestyles specializes in custom 3-season rooms tailored to your home and lifestyle. We take the time to understand your needs and space to create the right solution. From the initial planning to the final installation, our team ensures a smooth, stress-free process.
