Fans Can't Stop Talking About This Driver's Oh-So Sharp ‘F1' Movie Premiere Look
You can never go wrong with a classic red carpet look, and one F1 driver definitely took that to heart tonight (June 16).
Although his cameo in F1 might be microscopic, that did not stop MoneyGram Haas F1 Team driver Esteban Ocon from stealing the show at tonight's F1 movie premiere in the Big Apple.
Aside from Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber rookie Gabriel Bortoleto, he might have been the best-dressed driver at the event, but we'll let you be the judge of that...
With his stunning girlfriend by his side, Flavy Barla, Ocon opted for a classy black suit with a matching black bowtie and dress shoes for the F1 movie premiere.
His partner understood the assignment as well, with Barla also rocking an all-black ensemble that hugged her curves, featuring cutouts that were the perfect combination of sexy and sleek. Accessorizing the outfit, the medical student-turned-influencer rocked white pumps and a white clutch, as well as gold statement earrings.
Given how good both individuals looked, Ocon and Barla might just need to take home the 'cutest couple' award!
Despite having a date night on the red carpet — or should we say gray carpet? — the French driver definitely got to spend some time with the rest of the 2025 Formula One grid as well, even stopping to pose for a picture with his teammate, rookie Ollie Bearman, warming the hearts of Formula One fans all across the globe.
For those who are unfamiliar, Max Verstappen, Sergio Pérez, Lewis Hamilton, George Russell, Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz Jr., Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, Fernando Alonso, Lance Stroll, Pierre Gasly, Valtteri Bottas, Zhou Guanyu, Nico Hülkenberg, Kevin Magnussen, Nyck de Vries, Daniel Ricciardo, Liam Lawson, Yuki Tsunoda, Logan Sargeant and Alex Albon — in addition to Ocon — will all make cameos in F1.
Aside from seeing our favorite drivers for a split second, Formula One fans can expect to major drama, action and even romance when F1 hits theaters on June 27. As for what the plot will actually entail, the film — starring Brad Pitt, Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Kim Bodnia, Javier Bardem and more — is centered around the life of Sonny Hayes (Pitt), a fictional F1 driver who raced in the 1990s and was forced to retire after a terrible accident, who comes out of retirement to mentor rookie Joshua 'Noah' Pearce (Idris) as his teammate.
Directed by Joseph Kosinski and written by Ehren Kruger — with Formula One's very own Lewis Hamilton serving as a producer — F1 is sure to be a movie to remember. Needless to say, we are already counting down the days until June 27...

'Fantastic Four' stretches lead to 2nd week at N.America box office
"The Fantastic Four: First Steps," Disney's debut of the rebooted Marvel Comics franchise, continued to outperform the competition for a second straight weekend at the North American box office, industry estimates showed Sunday. Actor-of-the-moment Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Emmy-winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Joseph Quinn star as the titular team of superheroes, who must save a retro-futuristic world from the evil Galactus. The film pulled in an estimated $40 million in the Friday-through-Sunday period, a 66 percent drop from the prior weekend, for a two-week global total of $368 million. Universal's family-friendly animation sequel "The Bad Guys 2," about a squad of goofy animal criminals actually doing good in their rebranded lives, debuted in second spot, earning $22.2 million. "This is a good opening for an animation follow-up sequel," said David A. Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. The film edged out Paramount's reboot of "Naked Gun," a slapstick comedy starring Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr, son of the bumbling police lieutenant from the original 1980s movie and related television series "Police Squad!" It pulled in $17 million in its opening weekend. "Superman," the latest big-budget action film featuring the iconic superhero from Warner Bros. and DC Studios, slipped from second to fourth at $13.9 million, Exhibitor Relations said. That puts the global take of the film, starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, at $551 million. "Jurassic World: Rebirth" -- the latest installment in the blockbuster dinosaur saga -- finished in fifth place with $8.7 million. Its worldwide total stands at $765 million after five weeks in theaters. Independent horror film "Together," which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival and was picked up by Neon, claimed sixth spot in its debut weekend with $6.8 million. "This is a very good opening for an indie horror pic," Gross said. Rounding out the top 10 were: "F1: The Movie" ($4.1 million) "I Know What You Did Last Summer" ($2.7 million) "Smurfs" ($1.8 million) "How to Train Your Dragon ($1.4 million) bur-mlm/des

NFL holdouts, contract negotiation tracker: Micah Parsons, Terry McLaurin request trades; James Cook skips practice
NFL training camp season is officially upon us, which means holdout/hold-in season is too as players seek new contracts. One day after Terry McLaurin reportedly requested a trade from the Washington Commanders, Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons followed suit. Parsons posted his desire for a trade via a long social media post, which included details about how contract negotiations with the Cowboys turned sour in the last few months. Owner Jerry Jones said he has no plans on trading Parsons when talking to the media on Saturday. Jones said he isn't fazed by the trade request and sees it a merely a negotiating tactic. "That's negotiation," Jones told reporters. "I've heard that so many times in my 30 years in the NFL." Like Parsons, McLaurin has reported to training camp but has sat out practices with an injury. But with no new deal in place, McLaurin has taken things to the next level. The Commanders reportedly don't plan to fulfill the star receiver's trade request, but things are getting tense for these two star players and their respective clubs. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] What other big names either haven't reported or aren't taking full part in practice while seeking a new contract? Are their situations roiling or boiling? Here's the latest, where we rank each situation by the attention and rancor from both sides. Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons As Parsons put his cards on the table with a trade request, it's hard to know if this is just another negotiating tactic or if he is truly fed up. Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein reported that a major sticking point is owner Jerry Jones believing he already made a verbal deal with Parsons a few months ago. Parsons said his agent will work out a deal. The Cowboys are no strangers to drawn-out contract talks, but the level of acrimony here only seems to be growing. Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin McLaurin reported to the Commanders on Sunday morning, but his subsequent trade request indicated negotiations aren't going well. The two sides have not made progress on a new deal, ESPN reported. Is this trade request simply a tactic to pressure Washington, or is it real? Cincinnati Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson Hendrickson reporting to camp on Wednesday by no means the situation has simmered much. If anything, it seems like the prudent play considering he's being fined $50,000 a day for each practice he misses. It doesn't change the fact that Hendrickson went gloriously passive-aggressive and posted about being in Florida as camp opened last week, nor that he called a recent Bengals offer "atrociously, atrociously low." This is still a big one to monitor. Buffalo Bills RB James Cook dCook ha been practicing throughout camp until he missed Sunday's session for an undisclosed reason. When asked why he sat out, he told one reporter: "business." Cook has talked openly about his desire for a new contract. "I deserve what I want," he said last month. We'll see if this escalates. Green Bay Packers OL Elgton Jenkins Jenkins said he missed OTAs for a "family matter" and not his contract situation. He was activated off the NFI list last week and practiced Monday, including playing center and snapping to Jordan Love. Green Bay just paid offensive lineman Zach Tom record-setting signing bonus money as part of his new contract. Will Jenkins get one too? And how will his move from guard to center affect that deal? San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings Jennings has been officially practicing with the 49ers, which indicates he's not planning to hold in, though he has missed several practices with a calf injury. Head coach Kyle Shanahan disputed the report that Jennings had asked for a trade if he didn't get a contract extension. The injury adds an interesting wrinkle as Jennings seeks an extension.
