Britain’s new government took a first step on Tuesday to boost public and private investment to modernise the economy, placing a National Wealth Fund to sit atop the existing state-owned British Business Bank and UK Infrastructure Bank. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his finance minister Rachel Reeves hope to attract investment in new and growing industries as part of their push to speed up Britain’s economy and meet the challenge of net zero.

Is this pre-race moment from Silverstone much ado about nothing, or something more?
Earlier this Formula 1 season it was confirmed that Adrian Newey would be leaving Red Bull. The fact that arguably the greatest designer and engineer in the sport’s history would soon leave the team instantly sent shockwaves throughout the paddock ahead of the Miami Grand Prix.

A seat at AlphaTauri was not the only ride Nyck de Vries lost last year
