The Big 12 Conference’s revenue distribution has recently become a topic of controversy, particularly concerning the disparities among its member institutions. In the 2023–24 fiscal year, the conference announced a record \$470 million in revenue distribution. However, this sum was not equally shared. The ten full-share members received approximately \$39.8 million each, while the four newer members—BYU, Cincinnati, Houston, and UCF—received about \$18 million each . This unequal distribution has sparked debates about fairness and the criteria used to determine revenue shares. Historically, the Big 12’s revenue-sharing model has evolved. From 1996 to 2011, 57% of revenue was distributed equally,…
« …les gens n’aiment pas entendre que l’âge de Lewis Hamilton est une raison de ses problèmes chez Ferrari » Nick Heidfeld pense que les gens « n’aiment pas entendre » que l’âge de Lewis Hamilton est un facteur dans ses difficultés chez Ferrari. L’une des principales causes de ses problèmes depuis son arrivée à Maranello est que la voiture Ferrari est imprévisible avec peu de carburant lors des qualifications. Ainsi, Ferrari travaille sur un changement inattendu de la suspension arrière, dans l’espoir que cela permettra à Hamilton de retrouver son rythme, après une moyenne de qualifications en 8e position.…
Nick Heidfeld acha que as pessoas “não gostam de ouvir” que a idade de Lewis Hamilton é um fator para seus problemas na Ferrari. Uma das principais causas dos seus desafios desde que se mudou para Maranello é que o carro da Ferrari é imprevisível com pouco combustível durante a classificação. Por isso, a equipe está trabalhando em uma mudança inesperada na suspensão traseira, com a esperança de que isso permita a Hamilton recuperar seu ritmo, após uma média de classificação em P8.7. A Ferrari viu Hamilton ser eliminado no Q2 da classificação em Imola, o que…
Although he had to wait until stage 12, Olav Kooij eventually managed to secure a stage win at the 2025 Giro d’Italia on Thursday afternoon, powering to the win in his typically impressive sprint fashion. For the 23-year-old Dutchman, that win goes down as the 40th of his pro career already. “I’d put him right alongside Tim Merlier, Jasper Philipsen, and Jonathan Milan — he belongs in that elite group,” evaluates ex-pro turned expert analyst Thijs Zonneveld on the In de Waaier podcast, with the Dutchman full of praise for his young compatriot. “He’s just so fast, and he’s fast…
In 2025 we are witnessing the rise of Mads Pedersen to a new level. A former World Champion and rider of a tremendous level for many years now, but Lidl-Trek have developed the Dane into a perfect position where at this point in time, he begins to match the level of riders such as Tadej Pogacar and Mathieu van der Poel. “Since the era of a few impostors who stole or attempted to steal the stars of a corrupted era (Riis, Rasmussen), now two men with completely opposite physiques have come from Denmark to redeem the damned marks of the…
At just 26 years old, Tadej Pogacar has surged into 11th place on the all time ProCyclingStats (PCS) rankings as of May 23, 2025. The Slovenian phenom made a six-place leap up the standings, placing himself just one spot away from the top ten legends of the sport. It’s a staggering ascent achieved in a handful of seasons, and it’s made even more astonishing by how young he still is. Pogacar’s 1560.5 point total essentially puts him level with Fausto Coppi, one of the most legendary figures in cycling history. For long-time fans of the sport, seeing Pogacar’s name on…

Though unwilling to give a date, Toto Wolff insists that George Russell will be remaining with Mercedes. Out of contract at season end, one would think that Mercedes would be keen to secure George Russell’s services for another couple of years, especially given his current form. However, there is a rather large elephant in the paddock in the shape of Max Verstappen, who continues to carry the whole weight of Red Bull on his back. Having previously allowed the Dutchman to slip through his fingers, it was understandable that there were some talks, but Toto Wolff then insisted that he…
Nick Heidfeld thinks people ‘don’t like to hear’ Lewis Hamilton’s age is a reason for his problems at Ferrari A primary cause for his problems since moving to Maranello is Ferrari’s car is unpredictable on low fuel in qualifying. So, Ferrari are working on an unexpected rear suspension change, which they hope can allow Hamilton to rediscover his pace after qualifying P8.7 on average. Ferrari saw Hamilton eliminated from qualifying in Q2 at Imola, as well, which was even the second straight race he qualified in P12. Yet Ferrari do not understand why their car is faster on used tyres,…
Fernando Alonso says it’s ‘impossible’ to drive with Lewis Hamilton at Monaco Grand Prix Traffic was, unsurprisingly, a major theme on day one at the Monaco Grand Prix. 1996 world champion Damon Hill has called for the FIA to ‘do something’ to address the issue. There were several near-misses as cars on hot laps encountered slow-moving obstacles. Max Verstappen hit out at the ‘unacceptable’ Gabriel Bortoleto after two run-ins at the Swimming Pool chicane, while Lewis Hamilton nearly hit Pierre Gasly at Massenet. Hamilton was himself a target of ire for former teammate Alonso. In an unbroadcast radio message during…
