Lada launches new design competition

Lada and Russian social network community VKontakte have announced a competition calling for amateur designers to express their visions for future Lada models. Designs can be submitted as hand-drawn sketches or created using computer programs, and there's no limit on style, class or models. The only condition is the design has to have the brand's logo on the grille.

Acura TL

Honda has released the very first image of the all-new redesigned TL, which will be sold under the company's luxury nameplate. Though only a single front quarter image has been made available, the profile of the new Acura TL is distinctively coupe-like, displaying an overall athletic stance. Apart from the familiar brushed aluminum Acura grille and single surface front bumper, new styling cues include sharp edged bodyside character surfaces anchoring down the design at the shoulder and the rocker panel, and the shoulder character lines' edge looping the front wheelarch surface and running down to the headlamp all the way to the front fascia.

F1 Budget Cap – No two-tier system says Ecclestone

Bernie Ecclestone says there will be no two-tier system in the F1 budget cap row [ad#ad-1] All eyes have gone off the stunning start to this year’s F1 circus with the news that Ferrari, Renault, Red Bull and several other teams have threatened to quit F1 next year in protest at the budget cap proposal and the two-tier system that appears to create. In a nutshell, the FIA – lead by Max Mosley – has imposed a £40 million cap on F1 team expenditure for next year (excluding driver costs, marketing costs and transport), but has said that teams who don’t adhere to the cap can still compete, but will be handicapped. Not surprisingly, the richer teams have objected and, on the face of it, it starts to look as if F1 as we know it is going to bite the dust.
