Toto Wolff Reveals Details On Lewis Hamilton Relationship After Ferrari Move

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. Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff opened up about his relationship with his former driver Lewis Hamilton, who left the team after years of winning and success. During his time at Mercedes, Hamilton won six Drivers' Championships and established himself as one of the most successful Formula 1 drivers ever. Wolff oversaw the team during all of Hamilton's victories and built a unique relationship with the driver. Hamilton decided to leave the German car manufacturer and join Scuderia Ferrari -fulfilling a lifelong dream to drive for the storied Italian team. Toto Wolff, CEO of Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team and Lewis Hamilton pose for a photo ahead of the Miami Grand Prix and in celebration of the Mercedes F1 x WhatsApp Observatory Takeover at... Toto Wolff, CEO of Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team and Lewis Hamilton pose for a photo ahead of the Miami Grand Prix and in celebration of the Mercedes F1 x WhatsApp Observatory Takeover at The Empire State Building on April 30, 2024 in New York City. More Photo byDespite losing Hamilton, Wolff revealed that he still talks to the British driver and maintains a relationship with him. "When he decided to go, it could have been very awkward, borderline hostile, and we actively talked about how to not make it that," Wolff told The Wall Street Journal. "All of us made a real effort in trying to be very accommodating, very understanding. "He's maintained being a friend. He pops up in the office on the weekend! He speaks with the engineers, gets some food. After many Grand Prix, he travels back with me. "So we have the old gang: Valtteri Bottas, George Russell, Lewis Hamilton, and me flying from the races." Wolff and the Mercedes higher-ups were surprised by Hamilton's decision to leave the team, though reports suggest that he left due to Mercedes's unwillingness to offer a multiyear deal. Hamilton wanted a commitment from the race team, but due to his age, Wolff and co. opted for a shorter-term deal. Wolff needed to keep in mind that Andrea Kimi Antonelli was waiting in the wings and presented the race outfit to a potential world champion driver. In the end, Mercedes signed Antonelli to replace Hamilton. Ferrari and Mercedes are direct competitors and top teams, meaning they often clash on the track, but Wolff reassures that it does not affect the dynamics between the two parties. "Listen, on the racetrack, we want to beat you. No doubt about that. But it's been 12 years that we have been in this relationship. We trust each other," Wolff added. According to Wolff, Hamilton shares intimate details about his life, even asking for dating advice. "I'm living a different life through his eyes - you know, he shows me his flirts and who he dates, and [asks], 'Should I go for this girl or not?' And I'm saying, 'Yes, you should, and tell me how it was.'"

Porsche Unveils New Porsche Cup Race Car With a Focus On Renewable eFuels

Porsche Unveils New Porsche Cup Race Car With a Focus On Renewable eFuels originally appeared on Autoblog. A new generation of Porsche race car The Porsche Cup has been the manufacturer's one-make racing series since 1990, and the German automaker has just announced its new race car for the 2026 season. The 992.2-based model has been in development since January 2024, with production set to start in fall 2025 at the main Zuffenhausen plant. The 2026 Porsche Cup race car will participate in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup and in some Carrera Cup series races like the Porsche Carrera Cup North America. Much like Porsche constantly improves its road-going cars, its race cars receive the same treatment. The 2026 Cup car will see better front-end aerodynamics, as well as improvements to vehicle electronics, brakes, transmission, the six-cylinder boxer engine, and vehicle handling. Four of Porsche's top-tier race car drivers, Bastian Buus, Klaus Bachler, Laurin Heinrich, and Marco Seefried, spent a considerable amount of time testing and fine-tuning the cars on the Italian Grand Prix circuit in Monza, at the Lausitzring in Brandenburg, and on Porsche's own track at the Weissach development center. 'We are already operating at a very high-performance level with the current GT3 Cup,' Jan Feldmann, Project Manager for GT racing cars at Porsche Motorsport, said. 'This has allowed us to focus more on feedback from the global one-make cups and develop a racing car that has been refined in many areas compared to the current Cup 911.' View the 3 images of this gallery on the original article The new race car was not tested on regular gasoline Here's where things get interesting, though. Porsche reportedly only tested the new Porsche Cup car with the eFuel blend they used in the 2025 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup. According to the release, their blend is composed largely of renewable synthetic raw gasoline, known as MtG (methanol-to-gasoline), alongside renewable, waste-based, or residual-based ethanol, which is "used to increase the oxygen content in the fuel and the octane rating, among other things." All of these components combined bring the octane rating to 100.5 RON. While this particular racing fuel blend was developed specifically for the boxer engines Porsche uses in motorsport, that's not to say that the automaker won't take the lessons it has learned on the track and bring them to road-going cars in its effort to preserve the internal combustion engine. Porsche goes on to say that even HIF, the manufacturer of the raw fuel, is using several clever methods at its Haru Oni pilot plant in Chile to keep CO2 emissions from its production as low as possible. For example, the electricity used for grid connection and control room stabilization is sourced exclusively from renewable wind energy, while CO2 certificates from South American renewable energy plants offset the inevitable CO2 emissions from transport. View the 3 images of this gallery on the original article Final thoughts The news of a new Porsche race car is always exciting. After all, who can balk at the thought of a performance-oriented boxer engine screaming around a race track for yet another generation? Where I feel the even more exciting news lies, though, is in Porsche's commitment to eFuel development. Porsche has claimed before that it will continue offering gas-powered cars into the 2030s, and perhaps this new eFuel is the key to being both environmentally friendly and not EV-dependent. Stellantis also released its own statement claiming that it isn't going all-in on EVs either, so as bleak as the situation may have looked for internal combustion engines just a few years ago, a mix of weakening consumer demand and the endless maze of automotive bureaucracy seems to be keeping our gas-powered dreams alive. Nobody has a surefire answer just yet, but the numerous plans popping up each day sure are interesting.

NBA All-Star Jimmy Butler's BIGFACE Coffee Pops Up in San Francisco with Square

BIGFACE, powered by Square, will run July 10-27 at Square's Corner Store location in the Mission District SAN FRANCISCO, July 08, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Square today announced that Golden State Warriors star and Square seller Jimmy Butler will bring BIGFACE to San Francisco through an exclusive pop-up at Square's Corner Store in the Mission District. The two-week pop-up, running from July 10 to 27, marks Butler's first local business venture since joining the Warriors, connecting his entrepreneurial passion with his new home and community in the Bay Area. Butler's BIGFACE journey began in 2020, when his deep personal passion for coffee merged with an unmet need for high-quality coffee in the NBA bubble. Butler started brewing and selling out of his hotel room for fellow players, and BIGFACE was born. Since then, BIGFACE has evolved into a thriving business, a premium lifestyle brand, and a respected name in specialty coffee. With a commitment to excellence and a focus on sustainably sourcing the finest specialty coffees on the planet, BIGFACE coffee not only tastes remarkable, but also supports the people and ecosystems behind each cup. Butler turned to Square when he opened the BIGFACE flagship store in Miami in 2024, and uses Square to power payments when BIGFACE pops up at cultural and sporting events like PSG House in LA and the Miami Grand Prix. BIGFACE's Miami flagship not only sports Square Register, Square Terminal, and the new Square Handheld – but also features a sleek Modbar espresso set up, a grab-and-go BIGFACE ReadyBev station, and an exclusive collection of premium apparel and gear, making it a cultural hub for coffee and creativity. "San Francisco's coffee culture is legendary, making the city an ideal fit for BIGFACE," said Jimmy Butler, founder of BIGFACE Coffee. "Coffee brings people from all different backgrounds together, so partnering with Square to bring BIGFACE to the Mission is the perfect way to connect more deeply with the Bay Area and show love to a community that's embraced me." The BIGFACE pop-up will offer espresso drinks, cold brew, and pour-over coffee, all of which can be personalized with BIGFACE's signature coffee infusions, including vanilla, salted caramel, and strawberry. Bottled and canned ReadyBev coffees and juices will also be available. BIGFACE is designing SF-exclusive merch for the pop-up, which pays homage to the location's legacy as the former home of beloved Lucca Ravioli, and is only available at the Corner Store. Customers paying with a Cash App Card will receive 15% off all purchases at the pop-up. "Jimmy Butler's evolution from NBA all-star to coffee entrepreneur perfectly exemplifies how passion and the right tools can transform any business dream into reality," said Lindsey Irvine, Head of Marketing at Square. "At Square, we know that local business matters, and that sellers are among the most powerful community connectors. Giving Jimmy a space to connect more closely with the local community is the perfect next chapter for the Corner Store." Event Details: What: BIGFACE, powered by Square – a cultural hub and coffee pop-up Where: The Corner Store, 1100 Valencia Street, Mission District, San Francisco When: July 10-27, 2025, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily The Next Evolution of the Corner Store The BIGFACE pop-up follows the Corner Store's successful June programming that celebrated San Francisco's small business community through workshops, networking events, and educational sessions. More than 2,000 neighborhood locals and businesses have been served by the Corner Store so far. Following the BIGFACE pop-up, Square will partner with local nonprofit SF New Deal to bring a local business operator into residency at the Corner Store through the remainder of the year, continuing both organizations' missions to support and showcase small and local businesses. SF New Deal strengthens neighborhoods by making it easier for under-resourced small business owners to succeed.
