Esto es un extracto de Noticias del Motor Verano 2025 que se emite cada miércoles en Onda Cero. Lo que no vemos del motorsport Cuando vemos a un coche cruzar la meta, a 300 por hora, pensamos en el piloto. Pero detrás de cada victoria, de cada carrera, hay decenas —a veces cientos— de personas que no pisan el podio, pero sin las cuales nada sería posible. Hoy, en este último programa de la temporada, queremos rendir homenaje a quienes hacen funcionar el motorsport desde las sombras MECÁNICOS Primeros en llegar, y últimos en irse… Pit stops: 2 segundos o menos → récord Red Bull 1.82s (2019). Entrenamientos físicos y de coordinación constantes (como atletas). Mecánicos de resistencia o Dakar → improvisación + trabajo de madrugada. Riesgo: trabajan con presión, calor, piezas al rojo vivo. Breve cierre: No solo aprietan tuercas; ejecutan coreografías milimétricas que pueden ganar o perder una carrera. INGENIEROS Y ESTRATEGIAS Arranque: Detrás de cada decisión en pista hay cálculos, predicciones y horas de simulación. Ingeniero de pista: habla constantemente con el piloto, analiza datos en tiempo real. Software predictivo: elige la vuelta ideal para parar, o ajusta estrategia si hay un safety car. 20+ personas analizando datos por coche en F1. Ejemplos: Verstappen Abu Dabi 2021 → decisiones en segundos. Brasil 2021: ajuste de mapa motor salvó el coche de Hamilton. ENTRENADORES, FISIOS Y NUTRICIÓN Los fisios no solo curan lesiones. Preparan máquinas humanas para rendir al límite. Los pilotos sufren hasta 5G de aceleración en curvas → entrenamiento cervical, abdominal, reflejos. Pérdida de 2-4 kg por deshidratación en una carrera (especialmente F1). Cada piloto viaja con su “coach personal” que cuida descanso, dieta, mentalidad. Ejemplo: recuperación de Marc Márquez → entrenamiento específico tras cada operación. LOGÍSTICA El paddock es una ciudad temporal que se monta y desmonta cada semana. F1: más de 1000 toneladas de material por GP → barcos, aviones, camiones. Triple headers (3 carreras en 3 semanas): coordinación logística extrema. Cada equipo tiene plan de “logística crítica” (material mínimo para correr si todo falla). Dakar: bivouacs, helicópteros médicos, repostajes en medio del desierto. Ejemplo de la NASCAR: Este mismo fin de semana la NASCAR viajo desde Chicago hasta Sonoma (3400 km - 31h en coche) y ahora tienen que cruzar todo el país hasta Dover (4730 km - 42h en coche) para la próxima carrera DIRECCIÓN DE CARRERA Y COMISARIOS ​​Dirección de carrera decide bandera roja, safety car, tiempos. Comisarios: voluntarios en muchos países, entrenados para reaccionar en milésimas. Grosjean 2020 (Bahréin): intervención en segundos → salvaron su vida. Control total del circuito: cámaras, sensores, radio, helicóptero médico en pista. Agradecimiento a quienes no están en los focos pero lo hacen todo posible: Sin ellos, no hay carrera. Cierre de temporada: recordar a los oyentes que el motorsport es un esfuerzo colectivo. Hoy os he querido hablar de lo que no se ve, porque eso también es pasión por el motor

In this episode of Wine Road, hosts Marcy Gordon and Beth Costa (0:00-0:24) introduce the show and thank sponsors Ron Rubin and River Road Family Vineyards and Winery for their support.   They welcome Crystalyn Hackett, owner of Spicy Vines, as their guest (0:49-1:00). Crystalyn shares her excitement about being on the show and introduces a spiced wine she brought, which ties into her personal story and the origins of Spicy Vines (1:23-2:55). The wine, described as "Christmas in a glass," is a blend of Grenache, Zinfandel, Carignan, and Petite Syrah, infused with holiday spices and a hint of brandy, evoking cozy, festive feelings (2:05-2:33). Crystalyn recounts her journey, starting with her time as a competitive equestrian in Germany, where she realized her entrepreneurial aspirations (3:08-4:46). After traveling and brainstorming ideas, she returned to California and created her first spiced wine, inspired by a drink she had in Germany (6:00-7:16). Despite having no prior experience in the wine industry, she spent a year perfecting the formula and navigating regulatory challenges to define and legally categorize "spiced wine" (8:03-9:22). Crystalyn explains how she built Spicy Vines from scratch, starting with events in San Francisco and eventually partnering with her now-husband, Doug, who became the winemaker (10:29-11:19). Together, they expanded their portfolio to include Zinfandel, Syrah, rosé, and other varietals, focusing on high-quality, small-batch production (12:12-13:07). Their Healdsburg tasting room, opened in 2016, offers a lively atmosphere with live music, wine cocktails, and charcuterie (13:13-14:22). Crystalyn emphasizes the importance of creating a welcoming, fun experience for visitors and wine club members, offering customizable memberships and personal touches like follow-ups and curated shipments (17:00-24:41). She also teases plans to launch her own podcast to share inspiring stories and connect with others (24:42-25:35). The episode wraps up with details about Spicy Vines' unique "winning cork" promotion and upcoming events, including their harvest release party and annual "Taste of Pine Mountain" event (25:36-27:00). The hosts close by encouraging listeners to visit Spicy Vines and keep it spicy (29:33-30:05).       LINKS: Spicy Vines  The Gables Inn - the lodging property featured today Wine & Food Affair - tickets to on sale today Frick Winery - our last mystery "where am I winery"   Sponsor: River Road Family Vineyards and Winery Credits: The Wine Road podcast is mixed and mastered at

Trevor Stuart was born in Florida, but raised in Seattle. He was the son of a tech CFO and an Episcopalian minister - so he learned life at many different angles. He graduated from Boston College, and went into investment banking at Morgan Stanley. Beyond that, he worked at RelateIQ prior to being acquired by Salesforce, which then led him to start his own thing. Outside of tech, he's married and expecting his first child soon. He lives in Sonoma, and loves wine - which type depends on his mood and the time of year.At RelateIQ, Trevor and his team had a core problem - pushing more code, and looking to move faster, but limiting the amount of quality issues. His co-founder built the early workings of a system he had seen at LinkedIn, around gate keeping features. Eventually, post acquisition of this company, they decided to start building this solution on their own... which led them toward their own acquisition.This is the creation story of Split andHarness.SponsorsPaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthPostmanMeilisearchMailtrap.TECH Domains (https://get.tech/codestory)Linkshttps://www.harness.io/https://www.harness.io/blog/split-joins-forces-with-harnesshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorbstuart/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story-insights-from-startup-tech-leaders/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

From Six Days of the Condor to American Sky: James Grady on Nostalgia and the American Dream

Keen On Democracy

How to write about the kaleidoscopic Sixties in the gloom of 2025? According to James Grady, author of the classic Six Days of the Condor and the new mid-century novel American Sky, the key is calibrating nostalgia with unflinching honesty about the past's complexities. "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future," Grady explains. The novelist's approach involves fictionalizing personal experiences while ensuring memories of traumatic events like the JFK or MLK assassinations connect with the painful realities of MAGA America. Rather than romanticizing the Sixties, Grady emphasizes the civil rights violence, the generational divide, and the "silent majority's" anxieties alongside the era's optimism. Grady's goal isn't to escape into nostalgia but to help readers understand how past dreams and failures shaped our present moment, making history a lens for understanding America's current challenges.1. Historical Fiction Must Connect Past to Present "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future. Otherwise it's like you're looking back at an old photograph of a horse and buggy. It's lovely, but it doesn't really speak to you."2. The Danger of Elite Liberal Condescension "Starting in about 1975 and 1976, I saw a new kind of, quote, liberal or left-winger come into the power circles of Washington, D.C. They were elite-educated, Ivy League, and they did their best to ignore any working class roots that they had. They started to look down on the labor unions."3. Fiction Can Reveal Truth Better Than Facts "So we can change the facts, but the facts are not necessarily necessary to reveal the truths... this is not a memoir where you have to be factual. This is fiction. And yet there's an echo of all of us."4. True Rebellion Requires Positive Vision "I always think of the great French philosopher Albert Camus who said a true rebel says yes to something better instead of just saying no and rejecting and fighting. You've got to have something to fight for."5. Literature Should Focus on Ordinary Americans "I think that a good author has to write about us, and you, almost more than they write about me... I want to know what's going on with someone in, you know, there's a town called Beaver Crossing, Nebraska, or, you know, Sonoma, California... Where real people are leading their lives and we learn from each other."Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

On this episode of the NHRA Insider Podcast powered by Speedmaster, Richard Gadson and Greg Stanfield join host Brian Lohnes to talk about their awesome victories at the NHRA Denso Sonoma Nationals last weekend. Both guys have been in peak form for several races and both had to really bushwack their way to the winner's circle.    For Richard Gadson a -.001 red light on Saturday in the Pro Stock Motorcycle Call-Out final was frustrating but valuable motivation for his work on Sunday. Leveraging the disappointment of that moment into the race day success he earned is a really fascinating process to listen to.    Greg Standfield won his first Pro Stock race in more than a decade by taking on his own son in the final round. A moment generations in the making for the duo, it was a race to the stripe with all the awesome tightness we have come to expect out of the category.
