This collaboration brings ALB to the global motorsport stage as it supports one of the most anticipated entries in this year's "Greatest Spectacle in Racing." As PREMA Racing made its acclaimed two-car debut on the Indy 500 grid, ALB joined as an official sponsor, celebrating shared values of performance, precision, and authenticity.
Piers Phillips, PREMA Racing INDYCAR CEO, commented, "We have worked hard to find authentic and committed partners like ALB to support PREMA at the Indy 500. Their team understands the importance of quality and identity, and we're proud to have them join us for this moment."
ALB is proud to join forces with the fast-paced family-owned operation that placed the Driver of the Number 83 car, Robert Shwartzman, at the front of the field in the 109th running of the Indianapolis 500.
PREMA's successful debut was underlined by an unprecedented result - winning pole position as a rookie team and with a rookie driver. And Shwartzman's performance was especially remarkable. A rising figure in international motorsport, and a former Ferrari F1 test driver and hypercar champion, Shwartzman aligns with ALB's mission of delivering excellence without pretense.
"Our partnership with PREMA-represents more than a sponsorship," said John Curtin, a spokesperson from ALB. "It's about standing alongside teams and athletes that are grounded, ambitious, and uncompromising in their execution."
The collaboration included ALB's on-site presence throughout the race weekend with branding on both the team's #83 and #90 cars, driver appearances in custom digital content, limited-edition event integrations, and co-branded moments celebrating the culture of performance and community.
This partnership signals another milestone in ALB's continued expansion into national and experiential arenas-building on the brand's steady growth across retail, hospitality, and travel, including its national presence on JetBlue and in select premium venues across the U.S.

Guirassy scores twice and Dortmund advances at Club World Cup with 2-1 win over feisty Monterrey
Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Serhou Guirassy scored a pair of first-half goals, both assisted by Karim Adeyemi, and Borussia Dortmund held off Monterrey 2-1 Tuesday night in the final round of 16 game at the Club World Cup. Guirassy drove a shot just inside the left post in the 14th minute, then sent another past keeper Esteban Andrada in the 24th when left unmarked from 15 yards at the top of the penalty area. Both times, it was Adeyemi delivering the pass that set up Guirassy, a native of France who plays for Guinea's national team. The 29-year-old striker has three goals in four tournament games and 37 across all competitions in his first season with Dortmund. Dortmund will face Real Madrid on Saturday at East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Spanish power advanced with a 1-0 victory over Italy's Juventus in an afternoon match. Jobe Bellingham received a yellow card in the 28th minute and will miss the match against Real – and his brother, former Dortmund star Jude Bellingham — because of yellow card accumulation. Rayados, cheered by a large contingent of flag-waving supporters in Atlanta, bounced back from the sluggish start to make a game of it. Less than three minutes into second half, a cross to the far post deflected off the head of a Dortmund defender before Erick Aguirre headed it back across the net to German Berterame, who headed it in to cut the deficit to a single goal. Using their speed to attack Dortmund vertically, Monterrey dominated the second half and had several chances to level the score. But the German team held on, despite the Mexican squad holding a 59% edge in possession and a 7-3 advantage in shots on goal. The late game drew a crowd of 31,442 at cavernous Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where the upper deck wasn't needed. But the sweltering U.S. heat wasn't an issue with the roof closed in Atlanta. American Gio Reyna did not play for the third time in four games at the Club World Cup, another sign that his tenure with Dortmund could be winding down. Key moment Dortmund started strongly, thanks to a nifty flick from Adeyemi at the top of the area that set up Guirassy's opening goal. Takeaways Dortmund's victory means five of the eight clubs in the quarterfinals are from Europe. Monterrey was the last club left from North America. ___ AP soccer:

Jean Chatzky reveals major 401(k) changes happening now
Many American workers recognize that achieving financial stability in retirement requires dedication, thoughtful preparation, and a solid grasp of 401(k) plans and other investing tools. Jean Chatzky, former financial editor for NBC's "Today Show" and founder of HerMoney, reflects candidly on how she might have approached the challenge with greater strategic insight. She also reveals how some 401(k) plans are rapidly changing by adding some surprising features and greater levels of complication. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter In a recent conversation with TheStreet, Chatzky urged Americans to recognize the importance of taking ownership of their retirement planning. She highlighted how, unlike previous generations, many Gen Xers no longer have widespread access to pensions, making 401(k)s and other personal retirement savings the cornerstone of their financial future. Reflecting on her own experience, Chatzky noted that the most common advice she and others wish they had followed sooner is to start investing earlier. Early in her career, Chatzky received a 401(k) at a time when the concept was still new to many, and she admits she didn't fully understand how to leverage it. Related: Jean Chatzky sends strong message on buying vs. leasing a car At one point, she withdrew the funds from her first retirement account and spent them on purchases such as expensive clothes for her new job - an impulse she now sees as a costly error. Chatzky acknowledged that she didn't become an engaged investor until she began working more deeply in the personal finance field in her 30s. Her reflections serve as a candid reminder of how crucial it is to build financial literacy early and make thoughtful decisions with long-term goals in mind. Chatzky also explains how many current 401(k) plans are undergoing significant changes now - and why it's wise to take some time to understand the new retirement savings landscape. "More 401(k) plans are adding annuities or 'guaranteed income lifetime income options,'" Chatzky wrote in a July 1 newsletter sent by email to TheStreet. "Others are preparing to add private investments, like private equity or private credit." "Some are even dabbling in crypto," she added. Chatzky also pointed to upcoming changes in retirement savings rules that could significantly impact those approaching retirement age. More on retirement: Dave Ramsey offers urgent thoughts about MedicareJean Chatzky shares major statement on Social SecurityTony Robbins has blunt words on IRAs,401(k)s She highlighted a new provision allowing individuals between the ages of 60 and 63 to make so-called "super catch-up" contributions - up to $34,750 in a single year - to their 401(k) plans, provided their income is high enough to permit it. Chatzky noted that starting next year, higher-income individuals aged 50 and older will also face a shift in how they make catch-up contributions. Rather than adding to traditional 401(k)s, they'll be required to deposit those additional funds into Roth accounts, which are taxed upfront but can grow and be withdrawn tax-free later. According to Chatzky, these changes underscore how essential it is to stay informed and proactive about evolving retirement policies, particularly for those in their peak earning years. Related: Dave Ramsey has blunt words for Americans buying a car Chatzky warns Americans about an important consideration to know about 401(k) plans. "More plan features don't automatically mean better planning," she wrote in the newsletter. Chatzky pointed to a HerMoney story written by Pam Krueger, CEO of Wealthramp. "All of that might all sound like a 'win' for retirement savers and in some ways, it is," Krueger wrote. "But it also means you're being asked to make bigger decisions, with higher stakes and not nearly enough guidance." The inclusion of unconventional assets such as cryptocurrency in retirement plans is becoming more common, stirring both interest and concern, Krueger explained. While private equity and private credit are increasingly showing up in 401(k)s, they tend to be costly, complex, and less transparent than traditional investments. Cryptocurrency carries similar risks, particularly following high-profile scandals and evolving regulatory pressures. "The Department of Labor's earlier warnings against putting crypto into 401(k)s have been pulled back, leaving it up to each employer to decide whether to allow it," Krueger wrote.

Wimbledon predictions: Tiafoe vs. Norrie odds, picks, best bets
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Frances Tiafoe left no doubts in Round 1 against up-and-comer Elmer Moller. The American needed just one hour and 47 minutes to dispatch the Dane, setting up an intriguing second-round matchup against Cam Norrie. Norrie's game has trended in the wrong direction over the last two seasons, but he looked to regain his form at the French Open last month. Norrie took care of business against Roberto Bautista-Agut in Round 1, winning in four sets as a slight favorite, but now he will need to raise his level to get past Tiafoe. Wimbledon: Norrie vs. Tiafoe pick You can set your watch to Tiafoe. The Maryland native consistently underwhelms during the weeks leading up to Grand Slams, but he always seems to find his game just as the lights come on at the majors. Tiafoe is a two-time semifinalist at the US Open, and he's made three other trips to the quarterfinals at Grand Slams. The 27-year-old hasn't had a crowning moment at Wimbledon yet, but his all-court game should translate well onto the grass, and there is no question about his motor. That last point is key against Norrie, who may not have an elite weapon to rely on, but his tireless work ethic and all-world endurance make him a tricky opponent in best-of-5 tennis. Against aggressive opponents, Norrie can be patient and try to drag his opponents to the deep end of the pool, but that may not be the case against Tiafoe, who has proven to be a relentless opponent in his own right. Cam Norrie defeated Roberto Bautista-Agut in Round 1 at Wimbledon. Getty Images This is a fun stylistic matchup. Norrie is a terrific counter-puncher, and he will have the crowd behind him as a Brit, but his weaponry is not up to Tiafoe's standards. Tiafoe should be able to get this over the line without too much fuss.
