  Volkswagen looks to shake up electric SUV market with new ID.4 3 Mar 2020 (News)
  .  A fully functional prototype of the ID.4 was due to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show 2020; however, following the  cancellation of the event due to the coronavirus , the vehicle's launch has been limited to a somewhat low-key reveal with a handful of camouflaged images of the car. The ID.4 is expected to use the same electric powertrain and battery system as the  ID.3 hatchback , which goes on sale in 2020. This means the electric crossover will most-likely use a 77kWh battery, positioned near the centre of the underbody to maximise cabin space and create a low centre of gravity.

  Goodwood Revival 2014 to honour Sir Jackie Stewart 9 Aug 2014 (News)
  Already making waves in sportscar racing, Stewart was spotted testing in early 1964 by Goodwood track manager Robin Mackay, who helped to arrange a Formula Three trial at the circuit with Ken Tyrrell’s team that went on to open the door to worldwide stardom for the then 24-year-old young Scottish racer. The very Cooper T72-BMC he drove during that test is one of 24 cars that will form of the tribute to Stewart. His three Formula 1 World Championship titles will be marked by a 1969 Matra MS80-Cosworth and a Tyrrell 006 of 1973 period. The Lola T90-Ford, which famously broke down during the closing stages of the 1966 Indy 500 while Stewart was over a lap ahead of the field, will feature, as will the BRM P261 in which he claimed his maiden F1 World Championship race win at Monza in 1965.
