Avengers Endgame : Captain America au centre de l’affiche

Outre la bande-annonce, l’affiche d’Avengers: Endgame a également été dévoilée aujourd’hui. Et contrairement aux précédents opus, Iron Man n’est pas au centre de l’affiche.

Alors que Captain Marvel est en salles depuis le 6 mars dernier, Disney vient de dévoiler la bande-annonce et l’affiche de Avengers : Endgame. Un poster dans la lignée des précédents, sur lequel figurent Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) et les héros qui n’ont pas été désintégrés dans Avengers : Infinity war. En comparant ce visuel aux affiches des précédents opus, on constate que, pour la première fois, Iron Man n’est pas au centre de l’affiche. C’est Captain America qui hérite de la place. Robert Downey Jr apparait néanmoins au dessus des autres Avengers, pas loin du profil de Thanos.

Une manière de souligner que Chris Evans va prendre la tête du groupe pendant l’absence de Robert Downey Jr. ? Ou un dernier hommage au personnage qui, rappelons-le, pourrait quitter le Marvel Cinematic Universe suite à son tweet énigmatique du mois d’octobre dernier :“Officiellement terminé le tournage d’Avengers 4. Ça été une journée très émouvante. Jouer ce rôle durant ces huit dernières années a été un honneur. A toutes les personnes devant la caméra, derrière la caméra, et le public, merci pour ces souvenirs ! Éternellement reconnaissant”.

Avengers : Endgame sortira dans nos salles le 24 avril prochain.

Perez admits he ‘didn’t really deserve’ points in Brazil

Like a few of his midfield rivals, Sergio Perez lucked into a top-ten finish in Brazil, but based on his poor pace in Sunday’s race, the SportPesa Racing Point driver believes the two points he collected for P9 weren’t deserved.

Perez was running well out of the top ten for the majority of the Brazilian Grand Prix, but the Mexican swiftly moved up the order in the latter part of the event thanks to the retirements of Valtteri Bottas and both Ferrari drivers and as a result of a spin by Red Bull’s Alex Albon.

On its merit however, Racing Point didn’t deserve its points according to Perez.

    F1i’s Driver Ratings for the 2019 Brazilian GP

“I didn’t really see it coming,” Perez said. “It was a chaotic race, we needed to be strong out there.

“We were not good enough. We were lacking so much speed on the straights.

“We got overtaken very easily and then we couldn’t push to get past people, so quite a disappointing race.

“It’s two points that we didn’t really deserve, because we didn’t have the pace all weekend, but I’m just pleased with that.”

Contrary to Perez, teammate Lance Stroll, who also spent his afternoon clear of the top ten, wasn’t even awarded an opportunity to benefit from the commotion that impacted the running order.

The Canadian was forced to call it a day six laps from the checkered flag because of a suspension failure caused by debris from the Ferrari drivers’ clash.

“That’s exactly what happened, I ran over some debris,” Stroll said.

“It was very tight all the way to the end with all the Safety Cars. We were on a good tyre and it’s a bit of a shame because we were definitely in a position to grab some points.”

Unfortunately, Racing Point’s relative underperformance coupled with a big bag of points collected by Toro Rosso in Brazil, courtesy of Pierre Gasly’s second place finish, has pushed the pink outfit down to 7th in the Constructors’ standings

“A tough day for us, even though we managed to salvage a couple of points in the final few laps,” said team boss Otmar Szafnauer.

“We face an uphill task in Abu Dhabi to reclaim sixth place in the constructors’ championship, but we will go there fighting and give it everything.”

IMF Says India Is One Of The Fastest Growing Large Economies But A Lot More Needs To Be Done

India has carried out several key reforms in the last five years, but more needs to be done, to sustain this high growth, including to harness the demographic dividend opportunity, which India has, a top executive of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has said.

Commenting on India’s economic development in the last five years at a fortnightly news conference, IMF communications director Gerry Rice “India has of course been one of the world’s fastest-growing large economies of late, with growth averaging about seven percent over the past five years.”

Red Bull drivers make a soft choice for Abu Dhabi

Brazilian Grand Prix winner Max Verstappen and Red Bull teammate Alex Albon have stocked up on soft tyres for F1’s season finale in Abu Dhabi.

Pirelli has revealed the compound allocations for the 20-car field at Yas Marina, with Verstappen and Albon making identical choices across the C3 to C5 range, the softest selection on offer by F1’s tyre supplier.

The Red Bull duo has opted for nine sets of the red-rimmed soft rubber, a preference also followed by Toro Rosso and Williams’ chargers.

    F1 to give 2020 tyres a second chance at Abu Dhabi

All other drivers on the grid will rely on eight sets of the soft tyre, with a few variations among the teams regarding the yellow and medium compounds.

The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix which takes place on December 1 will be followed by a post-season test at Yas Marina during which drivers will have another opportunity to sample Pirelli’s 2020-spec tyres after the initial test that took place in Austin.

As a reminder, teams and drivers were unimpressed with Pirelli’s latest product, criticizing the 2020-spec tyre’s grip levels.

F1 and the FIA are in the process of determining whether to give the future rubber the green light or remain with this year’s tyres in 2020, with a final call expected after the Abu Dhabi post-season test.

Haryanto gets grid penalty before first qualifying

Rio Haryanto has been hit with a grid penalty before his first qualifying session in F1.

The first Indonesian driver in F1 was involved in a collision with Romain Grosjean in the pit lane at the start the final practice session at the Australian Grand Prix.

Romain Grosjean was released from his garage and pulled in to the pit lane just as Haryanto was creeping out of his own garage, but the Manor was slow pulling away and drove in to the side of the Haas as it came past.

The two cars were tangled in the pits and had to be pulled apart, with Haryanto needing a new front wing and Grosjean requiring a new floor.

Following an investigation by the stewards, Haryanto was hit with a three place grid penalty and two penalty points.

“The driver of car 88 left the team garage and did not pay attention to the approaching car which was in the fast lane.”

Haryanto went on to qualify 21st, marginally ahead of team-mate Pascal Wehrlein with Manor already aware of the penalty before the session.
