There are only three more nights of sleep before the first free practice for the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas starts. It will be a weekend full of entertainment on the track, off the track and apparently also in bed. Two well-known sex workers have announced that they are offering their services for free to Formula 1 drivers. The one who has already gone naked is Valtteri Bottas. He bare his buttocks for a special calendar, the proceeds of which go to charity. There is also some more serious news: General Motors has officially registered as an engine supplier and Lia Block has been given a place at the Williams Driver Academy and will race in the F1 Academy.

Horner contradicts claims about ‘radical improvements’ to 2024 Red Bull car
Red Bull Racing has dominated the 2023 Formula 1 season in a very impressive way. Of the twenty races held – Las Vegas and Abu Dhabi are still on the program – the formation from Milton Keynes managed to win nineteen. Seventeen times it was Max Verstappen who crossed the line first, twice Sergio Pérez. The Austrian superpower already managed to win the constructors’ championship in Japan and now has 782 points to its name. Team boss Christian Horner has contradicted claims that the energy drink manufacturer has made a number of radical improvements to the 2024 car. The Brit expects a much more competitive battle with the other top teams in the coming years. Read more? Click here!
Sex workers offer Formula 1 drivers free sex during GP Las Vegas
A lot of show and entertainment is expected during the Las Vegas Grand Prix, but it even goes so far that two well-known sex workers, Addison Gray and Alice Little, are offering their services for free to Formula 1 drivers who want them. If they want to let off some steam before the race, that is possible, the ladies said. “Any driver who wants to get their heart pumping and celebrate F1 with me and Addison will be treated to 100% free intercourse,” Little said. It remains to be seen whether Formula 1 drivers will take advantage of the offer. In addition, the majority of the riders are currently in a relationship, which means that an adventure with one of the ladies is normally not an option. If the drivers fail en masse, Gray and Little will focus on a different target group: the fans and visitors of the event. The sex workers have announced that they will give a 50% discount to everyone who visits the Grand Prix of Las Vegas. Read more? Click here!
Wolff clear about Verstappen’s dominance: ‘Next-to-neck race with multiple drivers is better’
In the run-up to the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff was interviewed by CNBC about, among other things, the dominance of Red Bull Racing. Lewis Hamilton and George Russell have not yet managed to beat Max Verstappen’s fast car for a Grand Prix victory this year. “As you know, we have a lot of dedicated Mercedes fans, some more than others. It’s about us hitting back,” Wolff said when asked how problematic it is for Formula 1 that Verstappen dominates so much with 17 victories in 20 races. “You can’t complain if you’re a team second in the championship and that’s us, but we have to deliver a better car with more performance to beat them. Of course it would be better for spectators and fans if “It was a neck-and-neck race until the end with two or more drivers, but that’s up to us.” Read more? Click here!
Bottas launches nude calendar for charity
While Bottas often looked like a colorless person while employed by Mercedes, the 34-year-old driver seems like a new person after his switch to Alfa Romeo at the end of 2021. The Finn has grown a business, launched his own beer brand and regularly makes waves on the internet. For example, in 2022 he suddenly appeared lying naked in a stream in Aspen, with his behind in particular prominently standing out. The concept of Bott-ass was soon born, and the ten-time Grand Prix winner has now cleverly responded to this himself. He has launched a nude calendar in which the Formula 1 driver himself is the subject of the photo every month. The proceeds from the special initiative go to charity. Read more? Click here!
Lia Block signs with Williams for a seat in the F1 Academy next season
Williams has announced who will represent it in the F1 Academy ahead of the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas. Lia Block has signed her name with the British racing team. She will compete for ART Grand Prix in the formula class for female drivers next season. At 17 years old, Block is already very experienced in rallying and rallycross. This year she won the American Rally Championship for two-wheel drive cars. The F1 Academy will be her first full-time season in so-called open wheel cars, but she is already racking up quite a few kilometers in testing to be well prepared to take on this challenge. Lia is the daughter of Ken Block, a winner in rally and rallycross championships around the world who was best known for his Gymkhana videos with Hoonigan. He died last January in a snowmobile accident. Out of respect, the FIA World Rally Championship decided to withdraw its regular number 43. Read more? Click here!
General Motors officially registered as Formula 1 engine supplier from 2028
It has been known for some time that General Motors wants to form an eleventh Formula 1 team together with Andretti from 2025 or 2016 as Andretti Formula Racing LLC, with the latter year coinciding with the introduction of a new set of motor regulations. The FIA has now approved Andretti’s registration, but Formula One Management also still has to give the green light. This seems to be where the actual challenge lies, because the existing ten teams are not necessarily looking for an eleventh team for financial reasons. General Motors has now officially registered as an engine supplier. The plan is to supply power units under the Cadillac name from 2028. Read more? Click here!
