Pepsi Confirms Limited-Edition Releases, 'Powerhouse' New Partnership
On Tuesday–a little over a week after PepsiCo announced it had officially acquired cult-favorite soda brand Poppi–the company revealed that 2025 is the start of "a multi-year commitment" between PepsiCo and Formula 1. The agreement, it says, "unites the world's fastest growing sport" with three of PepsiCo's "powerhouse" brands: Sting Energy, Gatorade, and Doritos.
According to a press release, the partnership will bring the three Pepsi-owned brands to life in a new way through limited-edition co-branded products and immersive experiences set up in Formula 1 Fan Zones.
"This landmark partnership with Formula 1 represents a perfect fusion of two global powerhouses that share a passion for creating extraordinary fan experiences," Eugene Willemsen, CEO of international beverages at PepsiCo, said in a statement.
"Formula 1's unmatched global platform and tremendous growth trajectory align perfectly with our ambitions to accelerate our brands–particularly Sting Energy–on the world stage," Willemsen added, "Together, we'll deliver bold, innovative experiences that connect with drivers and fans at race venues and well beyond, while also supporting Formula 1's continued expansion to new audiences worldwide in markets where PepsiCo and Sting have a strong presence."
In addition to branded experiences found in the F1 Fan Zones, eventgoers can expect to see branded signage and promotional engagements at racing events, online and potentially even in-store, in the near future.
As for exactly what the new partnership means, Sting Energy is now the official energy drink of Formula 1, while Gatorade is the official sports drink.
Doritos has also been named the official savory snack of the league.
"Today is a moment to celebrate the partnership between two iconic and historic global brands — a sparkling union that will bring together tradition and innovation, generating excitement, entertainment, and unforgettable experiences for our fans and customers around the world," added Formula 1 president and CEO Stefano Domenicali.
"With a long-standing history of creativity and an ability to celebrate the fun and special moments in life, PepsiCo is the ideal partner with whom to share unique moments along our journey," Domenicali concluded.
Should PepsiCo and the F1 partnership race from the track to grocery stores nationwide, Parade will be the first to let you know as soon as it crosses the finish line.

Zelensky accuses Russia of ‘deliberate' attack on American-owned factory
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday accused Russia of launching a 'deliberate' attack on an American-owned facility in his country, amid signs that the Kremlin is slow-walking a peace deal to end the yearslong conflict. 'In Mukachevo, the Russians practically burned down an American company producing electronics—home appliances, nothing military. The Russians knew exactly where they lobbed the missiles,' Zelensky wrote in a post on the social platform X. 'We believe this was a deliberate attack against American property and investments in Ukraine,' he continued. The Texas-based electronics manufacturing company, Flex Ltd., confirmed its facility in Mukachevo, Ukraine, was damaged early Thursday in a missile strike, which injured 'a few employees and contractors.' Zelensky underscored the relevance of the timing of the attack— less than a week after the Russian leader met with President Trump in Alaska and just days after Zelensky and European leaders huddled at the White House to discuss next steps toward a peace deal. 'Telling attack, right as the world awaits a clear answer from Russia on negotiations to end the war,' he said. Zelensky noted that the potential next steps that Trump laid out — a bilateral meeting with Zelensky and Putin, followed by a trilateral meeting that Trump would join — were discussed in Washington and in a phone call between Trump and Putin. Zelensky said Putin appeared to be 'trying to wriggle out' of a meeting to end the war in Ukraine. 'Now, the signals coming from Russia are simply outrageous,' Zelensky said. 'They are trying to wriggle out of holding a meeting. They don't want to end this war. They continue their massive attacks on Ukraine and their ferocious assaults along the frontline.' Zelensky pointed to the attack on the American company and to the proximity of the strikes to NATO borders as 'not accidents,' but 'Russian impudence.' 'We expect our partners to respond in a principled manner,' Zelensky said. 'This war must be brought to an end. Pressure must be exerted on Russia to end the war. Putin understands nothing but force and pressure.' He nodded to Trump's musings earlier Thursday about Ukraine launching an offensive inside Russia, saying the U.S. president is 'absolutely right—this must be done not only in defense.' Trump earlier this month had called for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine and threatened crippling sanctions on Russia, but largely dropped those demands after meeting with Putin in Alaska last week, instead pushing for a comprehensive peace deal.

Post Malone Opens Up About Fatherhood and His 'Hilarious' Young Daughter: 'The Most Beautiful Creature'
Post Malone might be one of the biggest names in music right now—but above all else, he loves being a dad. The superstar—whose real name is Austin Richard Post—has kept a busy schedule as he shoots a campaign for Kim Kardashian's SKIMS brand and performs as part of his Post Malone Presents: The BIG A-- Stadium Tour. However, none of this has stopped him from making time for his three-year-old daughter. Malone, 30, recently gave rare details about life as a dad. In an August interview with GQ, the singer said he takes fatherhood "a day at a time." "I think it's important that way. We're learning every day. I don't know what the h--l I'm doing, and neither does she. She's just figuring it out," he continued. The "I Had Some Help" singer, who now lives in rural Utah, then revealed the "really sweet" activity his daughter enjoys doing in his newly renovated home. "And there's this big hallway where she can ride her bike, and she has this little toy horse, and she rides up and down and just f--king giggles the whole f--king time," he told the outlet. "It is the most beautiful thing I've ever experienced in my life. I'm pretty pumped on that. It's pretty cool. It's bada-- to be a dad." The 18-time Grammy Award-nominee then opened up about his young daughter's sense of humor. Referring to his friend and fellow megastar Jelly Roll, Malone said to GQ, "Jelly was opening up [on tour] and she went out to watch Jelly and her grandparents asked her, 'Who's a better singer, Jelly Roll or your dad?' She goes, 'Jelly Roll.' And I know she's f--king with me. "She does that all the time. She goes, 'I love you.' I say, 'How much?' She goes, 'A little.' I go, 'Oh, you little s--t.' And then she calls me a little s--t, too. It's pretty funny." The "Sunflower" singer then called his daughter, "f--king hilarious." He continued, "It's unstoppable. She's just the most beautiful creature to ever have existed on this earth. And I can't believe that... Well, I don't deserve something like that, but it's pretty cool that's in my life." Despite his success in the entertainment industry, Malone made it clear that he prioritizes family. "I think that's all you really need is just family, at the end of the day… You know I've been on the road for ten years, and I've been doing this pretty vigorously. After ten years, it's time to just take it easy," he told GQ. "And this is where you want to be. You want to be here with a little three-year-old little squirt and just push her into the water and then she calls you a little s--t," he continued. Malone welcomed his daughter—whom he shares with ex-fiancée and South Korean singer Hee Sung "Jamie" Park—in May 2022.
