All Set for the 1000 Miglia 2025
1900 km and 5 racing days for the 420 jewels of the world's only travelling museum. After leaving Viale Venezia in Brescia, the first leg will end in San Lazzaro di Savena (Bologna). On Wednesday, the cars will arrive in the capital, then, returning north, the third leg will end in Cervia-Milano Marittima. On Friday, the crews will cross Italy from east to west: reaching the Tyrrhenian Sea, the passage through the Naval Academy in Livorno will seal the partnership with the Italian Navy, showing the collaboration and closeness that the Armed Forces and Police have always reserved for the 1000 Miglia. In Parma, the conclusion of the fourth leg will precede the grand finale on Saturday 21st: from midday, the cars will return to Viale Venezia before waving goodbye to the public in Piazza Vittoria with a parade in the festive Festa della Musica atmosphere.
The 1000 Miglia 2025 convoy will be preceded by 123 Ferraris from the Tribute 1000 Miglia and 1000 Miglia Green electric cars, accompanied by the Politecnico di Milano's robo-driven cars. The project focuses on the introduction of autonomous driving for optimising urban transport.
The pre-race programme will start on Sunday 15 June with the inauguration of the 1000 Miglia Village in the historic setting of Piazza Vittoria: children from the 'La 1000 Miglia goes to school' project will decorate the car dedicated to the initiative, travelling behind the convoy. The days will be entertained by Radio Deejay voices, whose official presenters will take turns along the route, recounting the race with their usual enthusiasm. The first edition of Talk 1000 Forme-Designed to win at the Teatro Grande and the preview screening of the film Fury&The Monster at the UNESCO site of the S.Giulia Museum will feature on Monday, while in the Village in Piazza Vittoria the cars will parade for the sealing ceremony.
The 1000 Miglia Charity Car, with La Zebra Onlus, will raise public awareness of the purchase of a latest-generation ultrasound scanner to be donated to the Children's Hospital in Brescia.

President Zelensky Finally Clapped Back At That Rude Reporter Who Asked Him About His Suit
Remember this? More specifically, remember when a reporter asked Volodymyr Zelensky why he didn't wear a suit, and it turned into a whole thing? Zelensky replied, "I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours, maybe something better, I don't know. We will see. Maybe something cheaper." People thought the whole thing was "deranged." Marco Rubio couldn't believe it either. And now, Zelensky is back at the White House along with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. People were wondering if Zelensky would wear a suit after that whole thing in February, and today we found out. He showed up wearing this: "First of all, President Zelesnky, you look fabulous in that suit. You look good," the reporter said. "I said the same thing," Trump said back. "I said the same thing. Isn't that nice? That's the same one that attacked you last time," Trump continued. That's when the reporter says, "I apologize to you. You look wonderful." Zelensky had the last word on this one when he told the guy: "You're in the same suit. You see, I have changed. You have not." Then the whole room erupted in laughter. As this person said, "Even Trump had to admit this was a great comeback."

Amanda Knox and Monica Lewinsky team up for new series, say their stories are similar
Amanda Knox is opening up about teaming up with Monica Lewinsky to reclaim her story in the upcoming limited series based on her life, "The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox." The two executive producers of the series sat down with "Good Morning America" Monday and said working on the new show together felt like a natural fit. "I had a first-look television deal at the time, and I thought, aha! Another young woman who had suffered in the media, had been feasted on on the world stage, and luckily, like a savvy executive, she got all the yeses, and we were off to the races," Lewinsky said. Lewinsky, now 52, was catapulted to international infamy in the mid-1990s, after news of her affair with then-President Bill Clinton, while she was a young White House intern, made global headlines. Knox, now 38, captured headlines in 2007, when her roommate, British exchange student Meredith Kercher, was murdered while the two young women were studying abroad in Italy. Knox was convicted of the murder by an Italian court in 2009, along with Raffaele Sollecito, another student she was dating at the time, but both convictions were overturned on appeal in 2011. In 2008, Rudy Guede was convicted of Kercher's murder. He was released in December 2020 after serving 16 years in prison. Italy's highest court subsequently ordered a new trial in 2013, and Knox and Sollecito were reconvicted of murder in 2014, before the high court overturned the murder convictions again in 2015. Knox served four years in prison in Italy before she was released in 2011 and acquitted in 2015. Knox said that although her experience differed from Lewinsky's, they still shared multiple similarities. "We were both interrogated. We've both been, you know, viciously turned into characters of ourselves in the media," Knox said. "And I think that the thing that we actually were both most interested in was making sure that this show had a wider lens." She added, "It's not just a courtroom drama, it's not your typical true crime biopic. It's a more personal journey and one that really begins with the story of what happens before -- and then, of course, what happens after the worst experience of your life." In the series, Knox is portrayed by actress Grace Van Patten, known for her roles in Hulu's "Nine Perfect Strangers" and "Tell Me Lies." Both Knox and Lewinsky serve as executive producers on the series. Knox said making this new series forced her to relive a chapter of her life that she said included some of the "worst moments." Despite this, she said the experience was still cathartic. "It felt like I was allowed to grieve for the first time, because it was outside of myself, and I got to watch myself and these people portray this journey, and it was as if I was there … and I was grieving in a big way for the first time in ways that I wasn't able to," Knox said. Both Knox and Lewinsky said while making "The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox," they made sure to honor Kercher, who was never able to return from Italy to her home in south London. "Everyone on this project understood that this is a story about two young women who went to go study abroad in Perugia, Italy, and only one of them survived," Knox said. "And I think that the way that I was turned into a caricature, in a big way, she was as well … and we really ground in this series that this is a real person, and it was very important for us to do that." "I didn't know her very long but, like, she was there, and she plays a huge role in my life even today. And so, I hope the audience feels that," Knox added. "The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox," an eight-part limited series, premieres on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ with the first two episodes on Wednesday. New subsequent episodes will be available to stream every Wednesday, with the finale out Oct. 1.
