Months away from its official Formula One debut in 2026, the Cadillac F1 team has announced a partnership with the renowned fashion brand Tommy Hilfiger. This marks the new team's first sponsorship in the premier class of motorsports.
Tommy Hilfiger is no stranger to F1, having ended its partnership with Mercedes at the end of the 2024 season. The collaboration with the sport's eleventh team as its official apparel partner marks the beginning of a new chapter in its F1 journey.
Cadillac's entry into the sport was confirmed in March this year after receiving approvals from the FIA and Formula One Management (FOM). For the initial years, it will partner with Ferrari to procure its power engines for the new era of regulations starting next year, where F1 cars will be powered by an equal ratio of internal combustion and electric power.

Addressing the new partnership with Tommy Hilfiger, Cadillac F1 team principal Graeme Lowdon said:
"We are an American team representing one of the most iconic American brands of all time.
"Tommy Hilfiger too is an American icon, and the brand's legacy in Formula 1 is unmatched. As we bring a bold new vision to the paddock, this partnership truly reflects the spirit of what we're building.
"Together, we're not only racing, but driving innovation that will shape the future of both entertainment and engineering."
In a separate report by Forbes, Lowdon explained why Tommy Hilfiger was a "natural fit" for Cadillac. He said:
"Cadillac has a proud and storied racing history as far back as 1950 when they began competing at Le Mans at World Championship Level.
"Tommy has known Formula 1 for a long time. It's the pinnacle of motorsport, like Cadillac is for luxury automobiles. Cadillac's brand values are bold, sophisticated, and optimistic. That was a natural fit with the Tommy Hilfiger brand. Combining this offers an ambitious, confident outlook. The chemistry, vision, and passion felt right from the start. Racing is about passion and desire to win."
The announcement of Cadillac's partnership with Tommy Hilfiger arrives at a time when the fashion brand promotes its F1 The Movie APXGP Collection ahead of the release of the F1 movie on June 25 and June 27 in America.
Addressing the partnership with the Cadillac F1 team, Tommy Hilfiger said:
"These two iconic American brands come together with a colorful history in visual culture. I love racing's iconic graphics. The uniforms are very cool with patches, logos, and team names. It's rich in design territory. We had insight into the Cadillac team's design direction; it will look incredible across the collections.
"I didn't see that coming in the earlier years. Formula 1 was automobiles and cars coming from Europe. Building out fanwear with our iconic prep with Cadillac's bold racing and motorsport motifs is an exciting playground to push the boundaries."

How our photographer captured the image that summed up the Celtics' dispiriting season
Write to us at . To subscribe, . TODAY'S STARTING POINT We all know a picture is worth a thousand words. But sometimes the story behind a photo — especially one that many of us have already seen — merits a few more. The above image is one of those photos, and this is one of those stories. Last month, Globe photographer Advertisement The stakes were high. The Celtics, last year's NBA champions, already trailed 2-1 in the series and were behind as the final minutes of the fourth quarter ticked down.

Tatum had Advertisement 'I don't like photographing injuries because it's so sad to watch,' Danielle said of the photo she captured (1/1600, f3.2, ISO 4000).

Loblaw pulls Folgers coffee from shelves over 'unjustified' cost increases
Shoppers at Loblaw Cos. Ltd.'s stores will soon no longer be able to get a coffee fix by purchasing Folgers-brand products after a pricing dispute prompted the grocer to pull them from its shelves. In an email sent to retailers on Wednesday, Loblaw said it decided to delist all Folgers products after talks with the coffee maker's manufacturer couldn't solve the impasse. "After several weeks of negotiations, we were unable to reach an agreement with the manufacturers of Folgers coffee regarding their significant and unjustified proposed price increases," said the email signed by Loblaw category director Suren Theivakadacham and obtained by The Canadian Press. "We are doing this because we are on the side of customers, and doing what we can to keep prices low ... This decision to delist Folgers coffee reflects our commitment to providing value for customers by not accepting unreasonable cost increases that would hurt Canadians." The email contained an attached list of alternative coffee products the grocer offers as stores prepare to update their shelves. The move comes as coffee prices continue to rise in Canada. Last month, Statistics Canada reported the price of coffee and tea was up 13.4 per cent in April on a year-over-year basis — outpacing both the 3.8 per cent increase in the cost of groceries that month, as well as Canada's overall inflation rate of 1.7 per cent. Experts say higher coffee prices are in part due to recent extreme weather and changes in temperature, which have caused some producers to experience lower yields. Other pressures include a weak Canadian dollar, making it more expensive to import coffee to Canada from other countries, along with the fact coffee is one of the products still subject to Canada's retaliatory tariffs against the U.S. While the U.S. isn't a major producer of coffee, Canadian distributors often purchase it from American brokers. Folgers products are made by the Orrville, Ohio-based J.M. Smucker Co., which raised prices of its coffee offerings both last June and October in response to higher costs it is facing. President and CEO Mark Smucker told analysts on the company's quarterly earnings call in February that more coffee price increases were likely on the way. He said pricing decisions are dictated by costs it faces. "Although we haven't laid out when other pricing is going to happen, we do expect it's going to happen in the next fiscal year, probably in the first half," Smucker said at the time. In a statement, the company said it has been experiencing "record high and sustained" prices of unroasted coffee beans. "Our pricing actions have been managed prudently and responsibly and have only been taken when justified by costs," said Smucker's spokesman Frank Cirillo in an email on Thursday. "We remain dedicated to working with all our retail partners to manage increased input costs while delivering value to our shared consumers." But Loblaw spokeswoman Catherine Thomas said Folgers' proposed cost increases were "unreasonable and unjustified based on underlying costs" and that the grocer felt it was important to push back as many Canadians continue to struggle with unaffordability. "Despite several attempts to address this with the manufacturer, we were not successful," Thomas said in a statement. "We will not accept or pass unjustified cost increases on to customers and therefore we have removed Folgers from our shelves ... We recognize this may create some inconvenience for customers and for that we apologize but again, we will do what is right to help address price increases." Thomas added Loblaw expects most of its stores to be out of stock of Folgers products over the next week or two. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 5, 2025.

Iranians react to new Trump travel ban as tensions are high between nations
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iranians again face a U.S. travel ban imposed by President Donald Trump, with the decision drawing anger, frustration and some shrugs given the decades of tensions between the countries. Trump imposed a similar ban during his first term before withdrawing America unilaterally from Tehran's 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, under which Iran drastically limited its program in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions. When he returned to the White House and began seeking a new deal with Iran, it saw the country's rial currency improve and stocks rise. But worries have grown as its government appears poised to reject an initial American proposal. The travel ban has further darkened that mood and led Iranians to fear Trump will lump the nation's 80 million people with its theocratic government even after he repeatedly praised them while seeking a deal. 'Now I understand that Trump is against all Iranians, and his attitude is not limited to the government,' said Asghar Nejati, a 31-year-old man working in a Tehran pharmacy. Even in the years after the 1979 Islamic Revolution and subsequent U.S. Embassy hostage crisis, Iranian students traveled to the U.S. to attend universities. Between 2018 and 2024, an average of around 10,000 Iranian students went to the U.S. annually. Estimates suggest some 1 million Iranian-origin people live in the U.S. today. Mehrnoush Alipour, a 37-year-old graphic designer, said the nations could have better relations if they could spoke to each other in softer tones. 'This is another foolish decision. Trump cannot reach his goals by imposing pressures on ordinary Iranians," she said. "The two nations can have better relations through openings, not restrictions.' Bank teller Mahdieh Naderi said Trump was lashing out over his frustrated efforts to reach ceasefires in the Israel-Hamas war and the Russia-Ukraine war. 'Trump just expressed his anger about his failed plans,' Naderi said. 'He is complaining about the Chinese and others who are living in the U.S., too Some said interest in the U.S. was already waning before the latest ban. 'Over the past years, two of my grandchildren went to Canada to continue their education there," said Mohammad Ali Niaraki, 75. "Iranians are not limited in immigration and they are not as interested to go to the U.S. as they were decades ago. Iranians prefer Canada, as well as neighboring countries with flourishing economies like the (United Arab) Emirates.' Others pointed out that high-ranking government officials have children living or working in the U.S., despite the tensions, and suggested that it would be fair to remove those as well. 'Those who have family members in the U.S, it's their right to go, but a bunch of bad people and terrorists and murderers want to go there as well,' he said. 'So his policy is correct. He's doing the right thing.'
