SHERIDAN, WYOMING -- June 1, 2025 -- Nikolay Gryazin is heading to Rally Japan as one of the most experienced hands on the grid, and this time he will be carrying the Lancia badge. The 28-year-old Bulgarian-licensed driver will compete in round seven of the FIA World Rally Championship aboard the Lancia Ypsilon Rally2 HF Integrale, tackling 20 special stages and 302 competitive kilometres across the Aichi and Gifu prefectures from 28 to 31 May. With a WRC2 victory at this very event in 2024 and two runner-up finishes in previous editions, Gryazin arrives in Japan not just as a contender but as the man who knows these roads better than almost anyone in the field.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING -- June 1, 2025 -- The Royal Rally of Scandinavia delivered a bruising but ultimately mixed weekend for Lancia Corse HF at the second round of the FIA European Rally Championship, with triumph and heartbreak arriving in equal measure on the fast Swedish gravel. Andrea Mabellini and Virginia Lenzi were forced to retire after just three stages following a suspension-damaging off-road excursion, while young Italian Davide Pesavento fought back to claim third place in Junior ERC aboard the Lancia Ypsilon Rally4 HF. For fans of rally sport and the resurgent Lancia brand, this was a weekend that showed just how unforgiving — and how exciting — top-level European rallying can be.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING -- June 1, 2025 -- Princess Yachts has delivered something genuinely special with the F50, a 51-foot flybridge motor yacht designed for families and entertainers who want the full luxury experience without sacrificing seaworthiness or performance. Stretching 15.65 metres from bow to stern and powered by twin Volvo D8 IPS 800 engines producing a combined 1,200mhp, this is a yacht that can slice through stormy seas as confidently as it hosts a dinner party for six.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING -- May 31, 2025 -- French yacht manufacturer PRESTIGE has unveiled the F6.7, the long-awaited flagship of its third-generation F-Line flybridge range, and it is a yacht that carries serious weight — both in ambition and craftsmanship. Designed by Italian designer Camillo Garroni, developed by the PRESTIGE team, and built at the shipyard in Les Herbiers, France, the F6.7 completes a generation that already includes the F4.9, F5.7, and F4.3. More than just a new model, it marks 35 years of PRESTIGE designing yachts not merely for cruising, but for savoring life on the water to the fullest. The F6.7 is set to make its world premiere at the 2026 Cannes Boat Show, with an advance preview at PRESTIGE Exclusive Days in Beaulieu-sur-Mer.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING -- May 31, 2025 -- French yacht manufacturer PRESTIGE has revealed the M8 EVO, a sweeping evolution of its M8 flagship multihull motor yacht, and for anyone who has ever dreamed of life on the water, this new model is genuinely worth paying attention to. Built on direct feedback from M8 owners who have sailed everywhere from the Bahamas to Asia and the Côte d'Azur to the Caribbean, the M8 EVO refines virtually every aspect of the original concept — from a bolder exterior silhouette to dramatically reimagined interior living spaces. The yacht is set to make its world premiere at the 2026 Cannes Boat Show, with advance preview events already scheduled for those who want an early look.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 14, 2026 – Alfa Romeo has completed two significant deliveries of its ultra-exclusive 33 Stradale almost simultaneously, including the first customer handoff in the United States and the first-ever delivery directly to the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese, Italy. Limited to just 33 handcrafted cars worldwide, the retro-inspired sports coupe continues to blur the line between collector automobile and rolling design object. One newly delivered model headed to Austin, Texas, finished in deep Rosso Villa d'Este with racing-inspired details tied to IndyCar history, while another now sits on public display in Italy wearing a specially developed color created through Alfa Romeo’s bespoke BOTTEGAFUORISERIE program. For enthusiasts of rare Italian sports cars, this is the kind of launch that still feels personal rather than mass-produced.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – Mai 14, 2025 – The EHF Finals Dijon métropole 2026 kicks off on 16–17 May at the Palais des Sports JM Geoffroy in Dijon, France, bringing four women's handball clubs together for the final stage of the EHF European League Women 2025/26 season.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 13, 2026 – Ken Roczen clinched the 2026 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship title last weekend in Salt Lake City, Utah — giving Suzuki its first AMA Supercross crown in 16 years. The German-born rider, competing for Team Progressive Insurance Cycle Gear ECSTAR Suzuki, held off a one-point gap at the start of the final round to seal the 450cc class title on his Suzuki RM-Z450. It is the fifth AMA Supercross title in Suzuki's history, and arguably the most dramatic finish in recent seasons.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – April 12, 2026 – Spanish rally stages will see a Lancia factory-backed entry for the first time in roughly three decades, as Lancia Corse España deploys the Lancia Ypsilon Rally2 HF Integrale across the full 2026 S-CER (Spanish Rally Superchampionship) calendar. The campaign marks Lancia's formal return to organised national championship competition in Spain and runs parallel to the brand's wider re-entry into the World Rally Championship after a 30-year absence.

The team and its drivers

Lancia Corse España fields Asturian driver Diego Ruiloba alongside co-driver Ángel Vela as the programme's lead pairing. The duo finished as runners-up in the 2024 S-CER and subsequently competed as rookies in the 2025 WRC season under the Stellantis Motorsport development umbrella, giving them direct experience in top-level international rallying before returning to the domestic championship.
