Brad Pitt's F1 movie uses Daytona, Rolex 24 and IMSA as a launch pad
There are two ways to look at the opening moments of Brad Pitt's newly released F1 racing movie. For locals, particularly those who spent week after week after week passing the filming location on U.S. 1 in New Smyrna Beach, you have to marvel at the modern Hollywood budget. All those people, all that time, for just 10-plus minutes at the start of the movie? But for one specific local, you can't put a dollar figure on the high-octane salvos that actually preceded the opening credits of 'F1 the Movie.' David Pettit is senior vice president, marketing and business operations, for Daytona Beach-based IMSA, the sports-car arm of NASCAR whose properties include the Rolex 24 at Daytona. As the movie was hitting theaters nationwide late last week, Pettit was coming off a splashy premiere in New York City that included lots of promotional work in Times Square (what Pettit's world refers to as 'consumer activation'). Shortly thereafter, he had a phone call with a potential IMSA client, headquartered in New York, who confessed he wasn't too familiar with IMSA or sports-car racing. 'So I said, 'You're in New York City, right? Did you see all the hubbub about the F1 movie?'' Pettit recalls. 'They said, 'Can't wait to see that.' And I said, 'Well, the opening 12½ minutes were shot in Daytona, and the racing you see is our product.' It's a way to introduce the product to another audience, and for me, that's what excited me the most.' Proving that deadlines are as flexible as budgets in Hollywood, original talks between movie producers and the Daytona folks date back to 2022. Those talks eventually led to Brad Pitt and dozens upon dozens of production workers making camp at Daytona and New Smyrna Beach in early 2024. They found, for their needs, the perfect off-track setting at the old Pappas restaurant and next-door laundromat in NSB. For on-track needs, Daytona International Speedway and the 2024 Rolex 24 were put to use in grand fashion — the Rolex served as another one-off race (and victory, of course) for Pitt's character, Sonny Hayes, a gun-for-hire hot-rodder who soon thereafter was invited to fill a Formula One seat. Fun little factoid: In the movie, there's some Rolex signage, but the race in that opening sequence is called by its long-ago name — the 24 Hours of Daytona. Why? Probably because the long real-world partnership between Rolex and F1 ended after the 2024 season, with TAG Heuer now serving as official timekeeper of F1. Soon after Sonny Hayes leaves Daytona's Victory Lane and hits the road in his custom Ford Econoline van, the opening credits finally roll and the stage shifts to the flashy playgrounds of Formula One. 'The rest of the movie was high-production, high-value, but selfishly, I think the first 10 minutes was arguably the best part of the movie,' Frank Kelleher says. Of course he does, and he should. As president of Daytona International Speedway, he has a rooting interest. 'The gravity of the people, the resources, the equipment, the level of perfection they were seeking over the course of four to six weeks here in Daytona … for the first 10 minutes of the movie, it's really mind-blowing,' Kelleher says. 'But when you take a step further into that reality of the first 10 minutes of any film, that's where it's going to sink its claws into you, and you're going to get interested in it, or not. They had to stick the landing on those first 10 minutes, and I think they should be really proud of their finished product.' Pettit saw the movie twice before it was released — first at Radio City Music Hall in NYC, then west of there at Watkins Glen, where an IMSA race weekend included a showing for the race teams and others. 'The first time I watched it, it was very difficult because I was looking at all of the detail,' Pettis says. 'The second time, I actually just got to sit there and watch it. I enjoyed it. There's a lot of drama, so if you suspend belief a little bit and just enjoy it, it's really good.' In other words, overlook the fact racers don't climb into a Rolex 24 car before midnight and drive all the way through to sunrise — as Sonny Hayes did five minutes after he was awakened in his van. 'You can't get into the technical parts of it because it's a Hollywood production and that's OK,' Pettis says. 'But overall, from the fact that IMSA and the Rolex 24 and Daytona got to be the opening — basically the trailer to the F1 movie — was spectacular. 'They really separated us from F1 in the movie, and I appreciate why they did that. We had a lot of brand presence — Daytona, Rolex 24, WeatherTech Championship, Michelin. You want more, but on the other hand, given it was an F1 movie, I was very pleased with what we got out of it.' — Email Ken Willis at This article originally appeared on The Daytona Beach News-Journal: F1 the Movie: Daytona, Rolex 24 turn the early laps with Brad Pitt

This Ivy League student sent a DOGE-style email to 3,805 employees as school costs top $90,000 per year
Moneywise and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue through links in the content below. With the annual price of attending Brown University approaching six figures, sophomore Alex Shieh wanted to know where all that money was going. In particular, he wanted to know what the school's thousands of non-faculty employees were doing each day. So, he sent them a DOGE-style email asking that exact question. Now, he's facing disciplinary action. 'The inspiration for this is the rising cost of tuition,' Shieh told Fox News in a story published April 4. 'Next year, it's set to be $93,064 to go to Brown.' Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 4 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) You don't have to be a millionaire to gain access to this $1B private real estate fund. In fact, you can get started with as little as $10 — here's how This figure reflects the direct costs associated with attending Brown for one year, as shown on the school's website, including tuition, fees and allowances for food and housing. First-time students are billed an extra $100. Brown's undergraduate enrollment stands at 7,272. To illustrate what he saw as administrative bloat, Shieh compiled a database of 3,805 non-faculty employees, according to Fox News. In an email similar to those sent by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency to federal workers, he asked them: 'What do you do all day?' Shieh says only 20 people responded — some with profane replies — and soon after the university moved to discipline him. "Brown is charging me for misrepresentation — for saying I am affiliated with The Brown Spectator," Shieh said in a follow-up story published by Fox News on April 30. In his emails, Shieh identified himself as a journalist for The Spectator — a long-inactive student journal that Shieh claims he and other students are trying to bring back. 'Brown is also charging me for violating their IT policies for publishing Brown employee data,' Shieh said. A website was created identifying what was deemed to be wasteful spending at Brown, and the names and titles of employees were published. Shieh insisted to the Brown Daily Herald all of the information was publicly available. Brown University, however, expressed a different view. 'In spite of what has been reported publicly framing this as a free speech issue, it absolutely is not,' a university spokesperson told Fox News. 'At the center of Brown's review are questions focused on whether improper use of non-public Brown data, non-public data systems and/or targeting of individual employees violated law or policy.' Whether or not you agree Shieh's approach was an appropriate way to investigate wastefulness, it's an issue many of us deal with in our everyday lives, including in our personal finances. Here are three simple ways to cut waste in your own life in 2025. Car insurance is a major recurring expense, and many people overpay without realizing it. According to Forbes, the average cost of full-coverage car insurance is $2,149 per year (or $179 per month). However, rates can vary widely depending on your state, driving history and vehicle type, and you could be paying more than necessary. By using you can easily compare quotes from multiple insurers, such as Progressive, Allstate and GEICO, to ensure you're getting the best deal. In just two minutes, you could find rates as low as $29 per month. Bank fees can quietly drain your finances over time. In reality, many traditional banks will issue a charge if you don't maintain a minimum balance, along with other actions such as overdrafting. Online banks, on the other hand, typically offer lower fees (or none at all) since they don't have the same overhead costs as brick-and-mortar institutions. Many online banks also offer high-interest checking and savings accounts, allowing you to earn more on your idle cash.

Monthly utility bills — electricity, water and heating — can add up fast, but small changes can lead to big savings over time. You can switch to LED light bulbs, unplug devices when they're not in use and use smart thermostats to cut heating and cooling costs. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, simply switching to LED lighting can save the average household about $225 per year in energy costs. You might also want to consider air sealing your home and adding insulation.

Trump Aims to Shut Trade Loopholes China Uses to Evade Tariffs
(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump's two-tiered trade deal with Vietnam aims squarely at practices China has long used to skirt US tariffs: The widespread legal shifting of production to Southeast Asian factories and the murkier and illegal 'origin washing' of exports through their ports. NYC Commutes Resume After Midtown Bus Terminal Crash Chaos Struggling Downtowns Are Looking to Lure New Crowds Massachusetts to Follow NYC in Making Landlords Pay Broker Fees What Gothenburg Got Out of Congestion Pricing California Exempts Building Projects From Environmental Law The agreement slaps a 20% tariff on Vietnamese exports to the US and a 40% levy on goods deemed to be transshipped through the country. With details still scarce, economists said much will hinge on the framework Washington establishes to determine what it sees as 'Made in Vietnam' and what it sees as transshipments. Complicating matters is the fact that Chinese businesses have rushed to set up shop across Southeast Asia since Trump launched his first trade war back in 2018. The lion's share of Vietnam's exports to the US are goods like Airpods, phones or other products assembled with Chinese components in a factory in Vietnam and then shipped to America. That's not illegal. 'A lot will depend on how the 40% tariffs are applied. If the Trump administration keeps it targeted, it should be manageable,' said Roland Rajah, lead economist at the Lowy Institute in Sydney. 'If the approach is too broad and blunt, then it could be quite damaging' for China, Vietnam and for the US, which will have to pay higher import prices, he said. The think tank estimates that 28% of Vietnamese exports to the US were made up of Chinese content in 2022, up from 9% in 2018. Pham Luu Hung, chief economist at SSI Securities Corp. in Hanoi, said a 40% levy on transshipped goods would have limited impact on Vietnam's economy because they aren't of Vietnamese origin in the first place. Re-routed exports accounted for just 16.5% of Vietnam's shipments to the US in 2021, a share that's likely declined over the past couple of years amid stronger enforcement actions by both governments, Hung said. 'An important caveat is that the rules of origin remain under negotiation,' Hung said. 'In practice, these rules may have a greater impact than the tariff rates themselves.' Devil in Details Duncan Wrigley, chief China economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said he's skeptical the latest deal will be effective in stamping out Chinese exports via Vietnam to the US. 'The devil is in the details, but I think China's exports will either go via other markets to the US, or some value-added will be done in Vietnam so the product counts as made in Vietnam, rather than a transshipment,' he said. As officials across Asia rushed to negotiate lower US tariff levels with their US counterparts this year, Chinese businesses have been just as quick to ramp up their exports through alternative channels in order to skirt punitive US levies. Shipments from China to Southeast Asia have reached record highs in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam this year. And there's been a 'significant increase in correlation' to the region's increase in exports to the US during the same period, Citigroup Inc. economists said in a recent report. Much of that is likely due to the shifting of legitimate production across the region. Goods destined for the US market may be sent from their factories in Southeast Asia, and what they make in their factories in China will be sent to the rest of the world, said Derrick Kam, Asia economist at Morgan Stanley. 'If you try to represent that in the trade data, it will look exactly like rerouting, but it's not,' Kam said. 'It's essentially the supply chain working itself out.' But it's transshipment that's been a major concern for Trump's top trade advisers including Peter Navarro, who described Vietnam as 'essentially a colony of communist China' during an April interview with Fox News. And it's not just been happening in Vietnam. Not long after Trump unveiled his 'Liberation Day' tariffs on April 2, garment makers in Indonesia started receiving offers from Chinese companies to be 'partners in transshipment,' said Redma Gita Wirawasta, chairman of the Indonesian Filament Yarn and Fiber Producers Association. Chinese products would be rerouted to Indonesia, undergo minimal processing like repacking or relabeling, then secure a certification that they were made in the Southeast Asian country, Wirawasta said. When the goods are then exported to the US, they'd be subject to the 10% universal levy that Trump has imposed on nearly all countries, instead of the tariff for China that still equates to an effective level of over 50%, even after a recent 'deal' that lowered levies from a peak of 145%. With the huge scope for arbitrage, coupled with little policing, that process will prove tough to stamp out. 'Chinese exporters and their affiliates and partners in Southeast Asia are highly skilled at adapting to changing rules, identifying loopholes, and sometimes overstating the extent of value-add by non-China countries,' said Gabriel Wildau, managing director at advisory firm Teneo Holdings LLC in New York. Some final assembly or transshipment may shift to rival Southeast Asian transshipment hubs like Cambodia, Thailand and Singapore, or farther afield to Turkey, Hungary or Poland, Wildau said. 'Another possibility is that the definitions and enforcement mechanisms are fuzzy, rendering the latest deal cosmetic and toothless,' he said. 'Rigorous enforcement would also require a significant boost of resources to enable US customs to verify compliance with the tougher rules of origin.' There have been efforts across the region to at least be seen to be making an effort to curb the practice. Indeed, Vietnam has made a big deal about cracking down on trade fraud and illegal activity in recent months. In April, South Korea said it seized more than $20 million worth of goods with falsified origin labels — the majority of which were destined for the US. The Airfreight Forwarders Association of Malaysia issued a warning in May as Chinese brokers promoted illegal rerouting services on social media. Malaysia has centralized the issuance of certificates of origin with its Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry, while tapping its customs agency to help curb transshipment. Thailand has expanded its watch list for high-risk products, including solar panels, cars and parts, and is mulling stricter penalties for violators. Red Tape Casey Barnett, the president of the American Chamber of Commerce in Cambodia, is already seeing the changes in action. One factory that exports to major US retailers, including Walmart, Home Depot and Lowe's, said that customs officials were very carefully reviewing their products before being sent to the US, he said. 'It's creating some additional paperwork and a little bit of red tape here,' Barnett said. A senior manager at a logistics company in Cambodia, who asked not to be identified because the matter is sensitive, said export processing time has now stretched to as much as 14 working days — double what it was before. But in Indonesia, getting a certificate of origin is fairly quick and painless when goods are marked for export, often just requiring a product list and a letter to the provincial trade office, according to Wirawasta. Authorities prioritize checking products that enter the country to ensure they pay the right duties and comply with regulations, he explained. It's rare for them to inspect factories where an export good was supposedly made. So much so that sometimes, Chinese companies don't even need to muster up some local processing. 'The T-shirt could be finished in China, with a 'Made in Indonesia' label already sewn on,' Wirawasta said. 'Some traders won't even bother to unload the goods from the shipping container,' he added. 'Unloading costs money.' --With assistance from James Mayger, Spe Chen, Nguyen Kieu Giang and Jacob Gu.
