All Set for the 1000 Miglia 2025
The Most Beautiful Race in the World Returns to Italian RoadsBRESCIA, Italy, June 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The countdown is almost over. The 1000 Miglia returns, 17-21 June with an eight-shaped route inspired by the epic pre-war editions, linking the eastern Adriatic and western Tyrrhenian coasts, besides the Brescia-Rome route and return.
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.

Prix Fitzgerald 2025 Laureate Announced at Hôtel Belles Rives
Renowned American Author Richard Ford Receives 14th Annual Literary Award for Be Mine CAP D'ANTIBES, France, June 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- During a celebrated ceremony at the iconic Hôtel Belles Rives in Juan-les-Pins on the French Riviera, the jury of the 2025 Prix Fitzgerald announced its latest laureate: Pulitzer Prize–winning author Richard Ford, recognized for his poignant novel Be Mine (Le paradis des fous, published in France by Éditions de l'Olivier). A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available in this link. The Prix Fitzgerald, created in 2011 by Marianne Estène-Chauvin, President of the Francis Scott Fitzgerald Academy and owner of Belles Rives Group, annually honors a work of fiction that embodies the spirit, elegance, and art of living associated with the American literary icon F. Scott Fitzgerald. This year's edition holds resonance, marking 100 years since the publication of The Great Gatsby and Fitzgerald's first stay in Juan-les-Pins in 1925, when he and Zelda moved into Villa Saint-Louis—now Hôtel Belles Rives. It was here, overlooking the same blue expanse of Cap d'Antibes, that Fitzgerald worked on Tender Is the Night, and where the mythos of the Riviera as a playground of writers, artists, and exiles began to crystallize. Ford's Be Mine, which revisits his beloved character Frank Bascombe, was praised for its reflection on aging, caregiving, and parenting in America itself, all told with Ford's signature blend of clarity, wit, and empathy. The jury commended the novel for capturing the existential tensions of modern life with a tone and depth that echoes Fitzgerald's legacy. 'My gratitude to the Prix Fitzgerald jury for their belief not just in my book but in books in general. We all stand on the shoulders of genius—and being here today at Hôtel Belles Rives, in the year we celebrate the centennial of The Great Gatsby, makes me believe it all possible.' The Prix Fitzgerald ceremony was held on the terrace overlooking the romantic, rocky peninsula with its white pier facing the adjacent islands graced by the 'green light' that once inspired Fitzgerald's most famous novel. The celebration concluded with a Riviera-style dinner held on the legendary terraces of this historic landmark. 'Richard Ford's Be Mine is a masterful—and rare—lesson in restraint, humanity, and emotional clarity. Ford dares to do what few still allow themselves: to write quietly, without flourish, about the subtle pain of fading feelings, the dignity of ordinary lives, and fidelity as an elegant form of melancholy. No grand gestures. No theatrics. Just clean, direct, implacable—and profoundly human—prose. A clarity without drama, yet marked by a light gravity that strikes with precision. It's a novel that doesn't try to shine—and that's precisely why it does,' said Marianne Estène-Chauvin, President of the Francis Scott Fitzgerald Academy and owner of Groupe Belles Rives. 'Like Fitzgerald,' she continued, 'Ford understands that the deepest truths live in silences, in hesitations, in sideways glances. He carries the elegance of disenchantment, the rejection of sentimentality—a style that never needs to raise its voice to move us. It is an honor—and, indeed, a distinctly Fitzgeraldian kind of jubilation—to welcome him among the Prix Fitzgerald laureates.' Ford joins an esteemed list of past American laureates including Joyce Carol Oates (2024), Quentin Tarantino (2023), Jonathan Dee (2022), Jeffrey Eugenides (2019), Jay McInerney (2016), and Christopher Bollen (2015). Special distinctions have also included the Gatsby Prize to Thadée Klossowski de Rola and the Zelda Prize to Dominique Bona. Each year, a jury of writers, journalists, and cultural figures—presided over by Bertrand de Saint Vincent, Deputy Director of Le Figaro—selects the Prix Fitzgerald recipient. Nominations are revealed in March, with finalists determined by mid-May, ahead of the June ceremony. The Prix Fitzgerald remains a singular literary honor on the international scene, not only celebrating literary excellence but also perpetuating the mythos and joie de vivre of the Jazz Age on the Riviera—now more poignant than ever in this centennial year of The Great Gatsby.

Maserati Delivers Multi-Million Dollar 1-of-62 MCXtrema to owner at Monza Circuit
Maserati's MCXtrema, its track-only variant of the Maserati MC20, is a sight to behold both in photos and in person. With extensive use of carbon fiber, cutting-edge aerodynamics, and a twin-turbocharged Nettuno V6 engine, the 2,756 lb MCXtrema boasts 730 hp sent through a 6-speed sequential manual transmission paired with a mechanical limited slip differential. And yes, it does have air conditioning. Of course, such a special affair must be a limited edition, which is why the MCXtrema is limited to only 62 units, reserved for some of Maserati's most loyal customers. One such lucky owner took delivery of his track beast at none other than the "Italian Temple of Speed," the Monza Circuit. The car was customized to the owner's taste, with a reported "Tech Beast" being the overall theme. The body is finished in a gloss-on-matte-effect blue up front and white at the rear, with a Trident on the hood and the number 44 on the door and rear fin. The interior sports a dark blue color with options like the passenger seat kit, rearview camera, and extra fan kit. "MCXtrema is the ultimate expression of Maserati's DNA: a perfect mix of racing tradition, passion, and relentless innovation. To see this extraordinary car brought to life for a customer is a source of pride for the entire brand," said Maria Conti, Head of Maserati Corse. In addition to receiving the MCXtrema directly from Maserati's Chief Test Driver and multiple world champion racer Andrea Bertolini, the lucky owner also took part in what Maserati calls the "MCXperience." According to the automaker, this gives the owner the privilege of learning about what their car can do on track from professional drivers and Maserati Corse techs. Of course, it wouldn't be right to take such a car on track without the proper gear, so Maserati offered the owner a Sparco Racing Kit with a Maserati-branded racing suit, shoes, a helmet, and gloves. Maserati has been on a roll with their models lately, and the MCXtrema is one hell of a deal. I was privileged enough to see its unveiling in person at Monterey Car Week, and it's not something I'm likely to forget. It's also a really lovely gesture when automakers like Maserati arrange such special delivery events for their customers, although when you pay somewhere in the millions for a car like this, it's to be expected.

Is This The Absolute Best Vogue Spain Could've Done with Kaia Gerber?
The industry continues to endorse Kaia Gerber like there's no tomorrow. Since her modelling debut as the face of Versace kids in 2012, the daughter of Cindy Crawford has walked a staggering amount of blue chip runway shows, became the face of mega brands like Chanel, Valentino, Celine and graced multiple editions of Vogue worldwide (including British, American, French, Italian, Chinese and Japanese). Therefore, it should come as no surprise to see Kaia Gerber take to the cover of Vogue Spain. Inés Lorenzo, who has served as head of editorial content since 2021, welcomes Gerber as the title's cover girl for June 2025. The model-turned-actress poses before the lens of Amy Troost for the occasion, and is styled by Max Ortega. Gerber gazes down Troost's lens wearing a top from Spanish high-street retailer Mango and a necklace from Sophie Buhai. 'It's good!' declared WAVES upon first look. 'Really?' replied forum member RMDV in a state of shock. 'On the very rare occasion… this cover needed more text. It feels lazy just slapping Kaia's name on the cover and calling it a day. No thought, no effort, no nothing. Always been a Kaia Gerber fan but I'm struggling to defend this. She looks vapid, lifeless, and completely devoid of energy,' voiced vogue28. Also majorly underwhelmed was Zorka. 'Aside from the cheap/amateurish set design and basic photography style, the whole wet hair look just ruins the whole thing for me. This is NOT Vogue cover material,' they declared. 'What a waste of Kaia Gerber. Ugh!' sighed prylvi. 'What do u expect?' asked Xone. 'Max Ortega is involved. He is terrible. Vogue Spain did much better covers with local talent.' See more of Kaia Gerber from the Vogue Spain June 2025 cover shoot and join the conversation, here.
