The Australian Grand Prix could perfectly well have been a bum if the race management did not intervene, which neutralized the test three times with a red flag, an eventuality that forced the peloton to regroup on the starting grid with all the ceremonial and nerves that this entailed. supposes. Especially controversial was the second stop, motivated by Kevin Magnussen with less than four laps to go, after the Haas Dane mistimed and smashed his car's right-left wheel into the wall, leaving the track littered with rubble. The impossibility of clearing the area with the cars circulating caused the commissioners to come down and decree that the event would be decided in a sprint of only two laps that would start in the conventional way. The situation evoked the one experienced two years earlier in Baku, where Checo Pérez won a race with just two laps after Max Verstappen disintegrated the tires of his Red Bull in the middle of the straight. Both episodes confirm that a measure such as the red flag, which theoretically seeks to mitigate a dangerous situation, can also generate another that entails even more risk. The moment of the start is the most tense of all, and even more so when there are only two laps ahead in which you can win a lot and lose more. That is precisely what Fernando Alonso complained about moments after being run over by Carlos Sainz in the first braking of the restart, and which ended with the Asturian on the wall. Luckily for the Aston Martin driver, the scrum that broke out behind him forced him to stop everything again, before the cars had even completed the first sector of the circuit. The regulations clearly sti[CENSORED]te in its article 57.3 that, in the event that a race is suspended, the classification to be taken into account is that of the last official control point. Finally, the FIA decreed that the last two laps take place in formation and behind safety, maintaining the order established on the last starting grid, a circumstance that allowed the Oviedo driver to chain his third consecutive podium finish. Regardless of the result, which left some more satisfied than others, most of the pilots agreed to criticize that penultimate red flag, considering it excessive and counterproductive due to the power to generate the chaos that a restart from a standstill after a few turns brings. of the checkered flag. "That damn rule!" Alonso exploded on the radio, while trying to rejoin the line after being hit by his colleague's Ferrari. “You put out a red flag for safety, but you start with a warm-up lap behind the safety car, which is going very slowly. Thus, you create more danger than anything else," the two-time world champion with Renault (2005 and 2006) later reasoned, exonerating Sainz for what had happened: "With cold tires you won't crash into anyone." Despite this, the man from Madrid received a five-second penalty that dropped him to 12th position. "It is the most unfair penalty I have ever seen in my life," said Sainz, who preferred not to make any other comment than that before going to the offices to ask for explanations. Esteban Ocon classified several of his rivals as "suicides", in particular allusion to Nyck de Vries, for how he got into the first corner. "Obviously in those situations you have a lot to gain, but it may be too much for depending on which pilots," said the Frenchman from Alpine. George Russell, for his part, was another of those who was most critical of the FIA's decisions. The Briton, who led the first stage of the test, abandoned (turn 18) after breaking the engine of his Mercedes, when he had already been affected by a first red flag that took the lead from him, following Alex Albon's spin in the lap nine. “That red flag was completely unnecessary. I don't quite understand what is happening with some decisions that are being made. We are all working together with the FIA to improve things, but it is becoming quite a challenge”, denounced the boy from Norkolf, who also holds the position of director of the Pilots Association (GPDA). https://elpais.com/deportes/formula-1/2023-04-02/fernando-alonso-tras-la-penultima-bandera-roja-menuda-norma-tan-estupida.html

When the first economic sanctions against Putin were announced, politicians and analysts expected a devastating effect on the Russian economy. After six months of conflict, the exact impact of these measures is still unknown. In fact, in the Western media there are headlines about the country's economic performance that defy expectations, which has raised suspicions about the veracity of the data. Even during seemingly peaceful years, the transparency of the Russian economy could be compared to a blizzard in Siberia, but since the invasion, national agencies have stopped publishing various time series. For example, the Kremlin no longer publishes monthly data on international trade, the Central Bank of Russia hides data on the monetary base and the origin of liabilities, and even the Federal Air Transport Agency stopped providing information on the evolution of passengers. On the other hand, since May of this year the Russian national statistical institute, Rosstat, has been under the direction of Sergei Galkin, who previously worked for Maxim Oreshkin, Putin's economic adviser during the Western financial siege. Based on the available data, it seems reasonable to argue that the sanctions have hurt the Russian economy, but not killed it. One of the undoubted reasons is the escalation in hydrocarbon prices, which in 2021 represented half of exports and 40% of tax revenue. According to the Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA), Russia has gained almost 160 billion euros from the export of fossil fuels (of which 88 billion come from the EU) since February 24. In the first hundred days since the start of the attacks on Ukraine, it has captured 20% more income from this concept than in the same period of 2021. Russian military expenditures are estimated at 100 billion euros since the beginning of the conflict. Additionally, the Russian ruble has strengthened considerably due to the intervention of the authorities. The Central Bank of Russia announced on February 28 the rise in interest rates from 9.5% to 20% to curb consumption and encourage savings. In addition, the authorities imposed strong capital controls to prevent investment flight. This combination of economic policies, together with the hydrocarbon boom, have stabilized the currency and have tripled the country's current account balance. A stronger ruble makes imports cheaper and abundant energy sources avoid inflationary pressures in the Western European energy market. Consequently, inflation dropped from 18% to 15% between April and July. As for unemployment, it is suspicious that it has been at a minimum since the invasion, since numerous international companies have carried out ERTE by temporarily stopping their activities in the country. However, there has been no explosion of jobless people. In fact, employability and lower inflation have allowed Russians to continue consuming. However, the real damage from sanctions is expected in the longer term. According to The Economist, the most powerful sanction resides in the limitation of Western exports to Russia. These exports include goods such as software, semiconductors and other intermediate products, key to the Russian mechanical and military industry. In fact, Russian military equipment already suffers from shortages of semiconductors, connectors, transistors and components that were previously imported from the US, Germany, the Netherlands, Taiwan or Japan, and is forced to dust off old Soviet-era equipment. They cannot even replace them with Chinese components, since the Asian giant does not produce the most sophisticated microchips either and has to import them from Taiwan or South Korea. Given the lack of publication of official data on the evolution of GDP, the International Monetary Fund predicts a drop in Russian GDP of 6% in 2022 and 3.5% in 2023. The World Bank expects a contraction of 8.9% in 2022 and 2.2% in 2023. Even the Central Bank of Russia warned that the second half of the year will be tougher and forecasts a recession of between 4% and 6% in 2022 and between 1% and 4% in 2023. Ultimately, Russia will suffer a recession, but it will not be a calamity, compared to the turbulent evolution of its economy since the fall of the USSR. And nothing, compared to the expected fall of between 35% and 45% of the Ukrainian economy.

The release of new skins is common in Valorant. An event every two or three weeks that the community gives some importance to. Even so, players rarely go beyond sharing their opinion. There is talk about whether cosmetics are beautiful, whether they are worth buying or whether their price is well decided. However, this time something different has happened. The new collection, called Mercado Negro, has given rise to an important controversy. Many members of the community, including fans of Riot Games, have reacted extraordinarily negatively, reviving the old allegations about alleged plagiarism of Counter-Strike. Some Valorant skins inspired by the real world The Black Market Collection recreates the original weapons that inspired Valorant's fictional arsenal. The default pistol becomes a kind of Glock, the Vandal takes almost identical characteristics to the AK-47 and the Bulldog looks like a futuristic FAMAS. The skin set is completed by the Marshall envisioned as a light sniper rifle and a butterfly knife. They all have the particularity that they show different colors depending on whether they are equipped on the offensive or defensive side. https://www.3djuegos.com/juegos/valorant/noticias/comunidad-carga-riot-games-copiar-a-counter-strike-nuevo-pack-skins-valorant-revive-polemica-que-parecia-olvidada

General Atomics has revealed a new ammunition for 155mm artillery pieces. It is called a Long Range Maneuvering Projectile (LRMP). this is what we know At the Sea Air Space 2023 presentation, a representative of the American company noted that the new 155mm ammunition can be used by M777 artillery units, which have a 39-caliber cannon. The maximum range of the LRMP is 150km. . In order for the ammunition to reach the target at its maximum range, it has to reach a high altitude. The projectile then separates from the master device, spreads its wings, and heads towards the target at the given coordinates. General Dynamics plans to conduct its first test of the LRMP later this month, to be followed by extensive testing later in the year. The company also plans to adapt the ammunition to fit the ship's 127mm artillery. In this configuration, the maximum range will be reduced to 100 km.

The techniques hackers use to trick users and steal their data are becoming more complex. The most common is that they impersonate well-known companies to use them as a "hook" and get users to enter a certain link, download files or provide them with their data. It is usually easy to distinguish these emails and realize that they are a scam. But, sometimes, pirates are able to hide so much that they can even impersonate official emails, as has happened with YouTube in this new scam. This past week, millions of users have received an email, which supposedly came from YouTube, informing of a series of changes in the rules and policies of the platform. This email apparently comes from the official YouTube address, no-reply[at]youtube.com, so in theory, we could think that it is an official email. At the bottom of the email, as can be seen in the screenshot, we can find a link, which takes us to Google Drive to download a document where these new policies are reported in detail. The link is protected by a code, so to download the document we will have to enter the password, which is also included in the text at the bottom, before the link. Although they have not provided data on what is behind said link, everything indicates that it will be a document with macros, or an executable that, when launched on the PC or on the mobile, will infect us with a Trojan, which will steal our personal data, our passwords, and bank details. It's not YouTube, it's a scam From YouTube they assure that it is not an official email, but that it is a complex phishing campaign, quite difficult to detect since they use, as the sender, the official email account of the platform. And how is this possible? Because, within the upload panel of the platform, there is an option that allows us to share a private video by email. By abusing this function it is possible to give rise to emails, such as the one above, impersonating YouTube's identity. Again, a legitimate feature of a service, like YouTube, being used for malicious purposes. Worst of all, there's not much we can do about it, as as long as YouTube continues to allow this feature, hackers will take advantage of it to carry out their phishing attacks. In case you have received this email, we do not have to worry. The email itself is harmless, and it's not going to be a problem for us. As long as, of course, we have not accessed the link, downloaded anything, and we have not provided any personal information either. In this link, Google explains how to keep our YouTube account safe and secure, avoiding falling for the scams that come to us through emails. https://www.softzone.es/noticias/seguridad/cuidado-correo-youtube-phishing/

Many times having the best architecture does not mean having the most performing CPU, this paradox has occurred several times in the history of computing. Especially with optimized versions of already mature architectures compared to newer ones. That is why AMD decided to join its Ryzen 7000 with the V-Cache of its 5800X3D to create what for a long time will be the best processor for games and its successor. We are talking about the 7800X3D and we will tell you why we are waiting for it like rain in May. There is no doubt that in the PC the freedom to choose the components allows us to build systems suitable to our budget and needs. The problem comes when we want something with high performance and the differences between one chip and another may seem insignificant on paper or unimportant, but once the concept of performance compared to price enters, the whole tower of mud collapses. It is at this point where it is important to know how to choose well. Add more cache, a sure bet on performance After the release of the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, which is composed of a single CCD and, therefore, with all the cores benefiting from the V-Cache, the 5800X3D finally has its true successor on the market. Although, as we have said several times, the benchmarks do not get better results on a CPU with much more last-level cache memory, in general applications, yes, and we could already verify that with the 5800X3D, which with this small change was capable of to match the Ryzen 7700X in most workloads. On the other hand, it is no secret that the speed of access to RAM is the biggest bottleneck. Therefore, it is a safe bet for any processor to alleviate this problem and the addition of cache memory is the safest and most classic of all. Of course, the common user is not interested in those details of how, but what and precisely what is Caesar's, although we criticize AMD for how it is doing in graphics cards, in processors it is a totally different song. The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the best processor for games Not long ago, the folks over at Techpowerup decided to do a mock review of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D using the Ryzen 9 7950X3D for it. Since both CPUs are the same, except for the addition of a CCD without V-Cache in Ryzen 9, they decided to disable it to have their younger brother on a practical level. Of course, the Boost speed of AMD's symmetrical eight-core processor is slightly less than sixteen asymmetrical of the same brand, but most likely with a slightly higher base clock speed. At first glance, losing 8 cores is losing performance, however, the fact that there is a higher latency between them since they are on another chip and perform worse because they do not have the V-Cache is counterproductive. On the other hand, there is not a single game currently, within the PC world, that requires more than 8 cores and 16 threads to run smoothly and less if these have improvements. Now, the best stress benchmark for a CPU is to make it do a cross-country run, this means it doesn't sit still for a while and the best graphics card for this is the RTX 4090, it's so fast that it requires you to all the processors have to keep up with it or the general performance, in frame rate it is cut. Well, according to these tests, activating or deactivating CCD0 (the one from the V-Cache) or CCD1, the results in games are surprising. https://hardzone.es/noticias/procesadores/7800x3d-mejor-procesador-juegos/

Happy Birthday

Through his social networks, Formula 1 driver Charles Leclerc asked his fans to respect their privacy. According to what he said, for several months, the address of his residence in Monaco became public knowledge. Leclerc states that this information leak has led to people "gathering downstairs" at his apartment, ringing the bell and asking for photographs and autographs. "While I'm always happy to be there for you and really appreciate the support, please respect my privacy and refrain from coming to my house," he wrote in a statement on his Instagram account. The text was shared in both English, French and Italian. The Monegasque driver, who in the most recent Australian GP had to retire without having completed the first lap, assured that he will continue to stop when he is greeted on the streets or on the tracks. "However, I will not go down if they visit my house," he said. And he concluded: "Your support, both in person and on social networks, means everything to me, but there is a line that must not be crossed." Leclerc, 25, is one of the most po[CENSORED]r drivers on the Formula 1 grid. On Instagram, for example, he has more than 10 million followers. He has had a very difficult start to the season, as he did not finish two of the three races that have been done so far. For this reason, he has only added 6 points. In 2022, he finished second in the championship, after accumulating 308 points. The winner was Max Verstappen (454 points), from RedBull, who this year also leads the most important motorsport competition. Next Sunday April 30 will be the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. https://www.eltiempo.com/deportes/automovilismo/charles-leclerc-piloto-de-ferrari-de-la-f1-pide-respeto-por-su-privacidad-757535

The US economy will continue to grow, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said in an interview, despite recession fears reinforced by the crisis in the banking sector. The failure of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank last month rocked the industry, prompting US authorities, including the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve (Fed, Central Bank), to intervene to prevent contagion. . Since then the situation has calmed but analysts warn that the consequences of the recent instability could continue, as banks tighten credit standards, reducing the credit available to households and companies. I continue to anticipate that the US economy will grow, that the labor market will remain strong and that inflation will go down," Yellen said nonetheless. This week JPMorgan Chase chief executive Jamie Dimon warned that the current crisis is not over yet and will show up for years to come. He noted that current conditions are nothing like those of the 2008 financial crisis, but added that it is not clear when the problems will end. On this issue, Yellen insisted that she will do everything she can to ensure that all deposits are safe and monitor conditions in the banking system. Officials are also “prepared to use all of our tools as needed for institutions of any size to keep the system safe and sound,” he said. After the bankruptcy of SVB, the US authorities reacted to ensure that customers could access deposits and did the same with Signature Bank. Subsequently, the Fed and other major central banks coordinated so that lenders had access to liquidity. “Our banking system is strong and resilient,” Yellen said, adding that the initiatives taken are aimed at “reinforcing that and ensuring broad public trust.” https://www.elespectador.com/economia/economia-de-ee-uu-seguira-creciendo-y-la-inflacion-bajara-secretaria-del-tesoro/

A Saudi delegation arrived in Sanaa to hold peace talks directly with Yemen's Shiite Houthis, in the first visit of this kind since Riyadh intervened in the Yemeni war in 2015, sources close to the rebel group reported on Sunday. The delegation landed in the Yemeni capital on Saturday, shortly after a mission of Omani mediators also arrived in the city and after the Houthis announced the exchange of 13 Yemeni prisoners and one Saudi in an apparent sign of progress in the talks. . The Saudis and the Omani mediators will remain in Sanaa for several days, where they will be received by the head of the Houthi Supreme Political Council, Mahdi al Mashat, to address "the lifting of the blockade" imposed by Saudi Arabia on the areas controlled by the Houthis. the Yemeni news agency SABA said today. He explained that the parties will also talk about "the end of the aggression" of the military coalition led by Saudi Arabia and "the payment of the salaries of officials with oil and gas revenues" that are produced in areas controlled by the Government. internationally recognized Yemeni government, he added. The Yemeni conflict sparked in 2014 when Iranian-backed Houthi rebels took up arms and seized Sanaa and other large areas in the north and west of the country. A year later, an Arab military coalition, led by Saudi Arabia, intervened in the conflict to restore the internationally recognized government. The rebels and the government have not yet reached an agreement to extend the truce that began in April 2022, and which expired after a six-month cessation of hostilities that has provided the longest period of relative calm in Yemen since it began. the war in that country. Analysts and the Arab media have not ruled out significant progress in the negotiations to resolve the war in Yemen since Saudi Arabia and Iran, the main Sunni and Shiite powers in the Middle East, announced an agreement in March, mediated by China, to restore their diplomatic relations, broken since 2016. In fact, this Sunday the Iranian Foreign Ministry announced that two delegations from the country will visit Saudi Arabia before Friday with a view to reopening their diplomatic missions, after a similar move by the Saudi government. The announcement came the day after a visit to Tehran by a Saudi delegation and after a historic meeting between the foreign ministers of both Gulf countries in China. Both countries pledged in Beijing on Thursday to work together to bring "security and stability" to their troubled region. The announcement of their reconciliation on March 10 stunned the world and may transform relations in the Middle East. Riyadh and Tehran support rival sides in various conflicts in the region, such as in Yemen for example. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/mas-paises/mision-de-paz-en-yemen-tras-restablecimiento-de-relaciones-iran-arabia-saudita-noticias-hoy/

A few days ago, the fifth-generation American F-22 Raptor fighters arrived in Poland. On April 6 they began conducting deterrence operations. this is what we know The 94th Fighter Squadron F-22 Raptor, based at Joint Base Langley-Eustis in Virginia, departed for Powidz Base in Poland. This was a planned rotation to maintain a forward US aircraft presence along OTAN's eastern flank. Since last November, the F-15E Strike Eagle fighters have carried out the plan of the US European Command to reinforce the collective defense system. Now the F-22 Raptors have taken over that role. The Polish Powidz Air Base provides the US military with infrastructure and the ability to operate closer to its allies and partners. From here the fifth-generation F-22 Raptor fighters can support NATO missions in the Baltic and Black Sea regions. It should be remembered that at the end of the summer of 2022, the US already sent Raptor fighters to Poland. In August, 12 F-22 fighters landed in the Polish town of Lask as part of a program to reinforce NATO's eastern flank amid Russia's aggression against Ukraine.

There are many portable computers that we can find on the market that are focused on an audience that, in addition to working, also wants to enjoy their favorite games without having to make an exorbitant investment. These computers, in addition to the dedicated graphics included in the motherboard, also include a graphics card, a graphics card that is used by the system by default. The same happens with desktop computers to which an external graphic is connected, this being the one used by default and where we must connect the corresponding monitor. However, some games with the help of Windows, on certain occasions have become a real mess and switch between the different graphics cards that the computer has, which is a performance problem as well as for the game we are playing, since it takes us out completely hers. In addition, if it is a portable computer, even if we are not making use of the power offered by the graphics we have installed and, for example, if we are not writing a document in Word, using the computer's graphics we will always have a higher consumption. battery and the overall performance of the equipment will always be lower. If we want to optimize both the consumption of our equipment and the performance, the best thing we can do if our equipment has a dedicated graphics card together with the native one, is to deactivate one of them. Disable graphics card To deactivate one of the graphics on our PC, the first thing we must do is access the Device Manager. Within this section, click on Display adapters to show the two graphics cards that our team has. Whether we want to deactivate the native one or if what we want is to deactivate the dedicated one, we just have to press the right mouse button on the one we are going to deactivate and press the Disable device option. Most desktop computers automatically disable the integrated graphics when a dedicated one is connected, so if, when proceeding as we show you below, only a display adapter is shown, it means that the native one is disabled, so Therefore, our team is only using the dedicated graphics card. If we want to optimize the operation of our equipment in games, we must deactivate the native graphics, since in this way we will avoid that, when configuring the graphics of a game, it only recognizes the integrated one (with fewer features) and not the dedicated. In addition, we will also avoid that, if Windows or the game crosses the cables, it will change us halfway through the game from one graphic to another. But, if what we want is to reduce the battery consumption of our equipment and that performance is better, the graph that we must deactivate is the dedicated one. In this way, the battery consumption that the equipment will make will be lower. Whether we want to deactivate the integrated or dedicated graphics, we must perform the steps that we show you below. https://www.softzone.es/noticias/windows/cambio-windows-ahorrar-luz-mejor-rendimiento/

Having a good gaming setup is important for many PC and console users who not only want to have everything at hand to comfortably spend hours playing their favorite game, but also want to do it in an environment where colored lights permeate everything: the walls, the table, the controls, the keyboard, the mouse, the screen, the mat and, of course, also the power strip. Illuminate home sockets We don't know if you were aware but just in case we're telling you now: the power strips to plug in the computer, the consoles or whatever we need, have also jumped on the bandwagon of gaming aesthetics that forces an apparently graceless component to suddenly adopt the joy that a good design can print if we also add the presence of LED lights. Now, we already know that it doesn't seem to fit too much, but keep in mind where we usually place these power strips: normally we place them on the floor, or behind the monitors, the PC tower and the consoles, so they tend to be dark places, with practically no light, where operating with them can be hell. What better to see what we can add or remove than having some light to guide us? If you want to print that note of color, we are going to offer you three alternatives that are very focused on gamer users who never have extra colored lights on their desks at home. Behold. Plug in and light up the room As we tell you, we have selected three models, although two of them are strictly gaming strips, while the third has only a small light and color detail that justifies bringing it here. So we start with it, since it is a tower-shaped model, with eight plugs in total, switches for each phase, three USBs at the base and a platform at the top – which looks like gaming – with wireless charging Qi for smartphones and other devices. https://hardzone.es/noticias/componentes/regletas-gaming-pc-consolas/

Francesco Bagnaia, the first Italian MotoGP champion since Valentino Rossi was last in 2009, makes his debut in the defense of the title as the flagship of Ducati, a factory that has not won the drivers' championship since 2007, with Casey Stoner, and which has become the great benchmark in the premier class on its own merits. In 2022 it was already intuited that we could be facing a Ducati Cup and at times it was, although nobody could imagine after the race in Germany that Pecco would end up taking the title. That crash of his at Sachsenring meant his fourth zero of the course and left him sixth, 91 points behind the lead held by Quartararo, but he won, because he knew how to overcome it and because he had the best bike on the grid, a Desmosedici that for 2023 is even better than the previous version, as the new champion has assured, because he sees it as more made for him. The Ducati is the motorcycle that runs the fastest and best accelerates, the one that brakes the best and the one that has always had the best aerodynamic package, to the point of driving a competition crazy that has had no choice but to copy its wings and so on. The other motorcycles only argue with him about being the best in cornering, something in which he is not a disaster either. And best of all, it has eight motorcycles on the track, because to the two official riders, Bagnaia and Enea Bastianini, we must add the names of the satellites Jorge Martín, Johann Zarco, Marco Bezzecchi, Lucha Marini, Fabio Di Giannantonio and Álex Márquez, a new addition this year who is delighted to have left his time as a Honda rider behind. As can be seen, a list of important pilots with the most powerful weapon and who are willing to work for the benefit of their factory, as was seen last year when Zarco sacrificed the possibility of getting on the podium in Thailand to cover the backs of a Bagnaia that the title was being played. The one that was put together in France because good old Johann carried out factory orders instead of fighting for his interests and, incidentally, lending a hand to his compatriot Quartararo, who was the one who was fighting with Pecco for the crown. In addition to all this theory, the preseason has made it clear that Ducatis are the bikes to beat, with Marini leading the tests in Valencia and Sepang, a rider who has yet to climb to the MotoGP podium, and with Bagnaia smashing the Portimao record. in the last preseason test. And with better rhythm than anyone... Obviously, the others will also have something to say, because things always happen in MotoGP and even more could happen this year, when the races are incorporated into the sprint every GP Saturday. They will be tests with half the number of laps than the conventional race on Sundays and with half the points at stake. Undoubtedly, an extra incentive for the spectator that becomes a double-edged sword for the pilots, because there is a lot to gain now on Saturdays, but also a lot to lose, because surely there will be more than one casualty on Sunday due to a fall in the sprint race With 42 races to go, regularity gains weight, but the possibility of wild cards in the form of zeroes per season also doubles. Returning to the grid, those who have also done their homework well in winter are those of Aprilia and the pair formed by Aleix Espargaró and Maverick Viñales are now joined by Miguel Oliveira and Raúl Fernández from the satellite team. All four have given off good vibes in winter and it looks like the RS-GP23 is even better than last year's, which was already good. Noale's house continues to grow and at Honda, on the other hand, it seems that they don't give one. His preseason has been embarrassing at times, with Marc Márquez having many problems to be in the top ten because of an RC213V that doesn't quite go as well as he does. His new teammate, Joan Mir, finished the Portimao test 13th just ahead of him, with 16 thousandths of a difference between the two and eight tenths off the lead. The satellites Álex Rins and Takaaki Nakagami did not dazzle either and the feeling is that Honda arrives with a motorcycle that is far from the Ducati. It was very striking that Mir said that there had been no revolution from the November test in Valencia to that of Portimao, held two weeks before the World Cup kick-off. What the hell are they doing at Honda? They have the best driver in the category, but without tools he can't save their furniture every day. Marc has done enough to overcome his fourth operation on his right arm and finally leave behind an injury that has been an ordeal for two years. It is time for the golden wing to catch up and it is a step to have turned to Kalex to make them a proper chassis given their inefficiency. Of course, they will have to wait until the Jerez test, in May, to try to find the definitive bike, and that is four appointments after the start of the season... As for Yamaha, they have finally given Fabio Quartararo and Franco Morbidelli an engine that runs a bit more, although so far only the former has been able to take advantage of it. The 2021 champion finished the test at the Algarve circuit third and was finally able to get the most out of his M1 with a new tire, something they suffered for most of the winter. And from KTM to say that much more was expected. Having Dani Pedrosa still as a test driver, without a doubt the best of all the test drivers, by record, but above all by analytical and development capacity, generated expectations for the preseason that have not been met. Brad Binder's ninth-place finish at Portimao allowed him to salvage some of the furniture at the Austrian factory, but his new acquisition Jack Miller is a far cry from the positions he used to occupy with Ducati. His satellite team wears the GASGAS colors this year, but the RC16 will also be driven by Pol Espargaró, who is returning home, and Augusto Fernández, who is making his debut in the category, so he is not required to start, but he still only has one year to earn a permanent place on the grid, because Pedro Acosta has already been pushing from Moto2 for a long time… https://as.com/motor/2023/03/24/reportajes/1679647168_991450.html

The world economy will experience in 2023 one of the weakest periods of growth in recent decades, below 3%, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said on Thursday. "Despite strong labor markets and consumer spending in most advanced economies, as well as China's post-reopening recovery, we expect growth of less than 3% by 2023," Kristalina Georgieva said in his keynote speech at the institution's spring meetings. The previous update of the IMF world economic report, from the end of January, already forecast growth of 2.9% in 2023, slightly better than the first estimates published last October. "With rising geopolitical tensions and inflation still high, a strong recovery remains elusive," Georgieva added at the meeting in Washington. "That hurts everyone's prospects, especially for the most vulnerable people and countries," he said. Global growth nearly halved last year, reaching 3.4%, as the shock of Russia's invasion of Ukraine rippled through the global economy, bringing the recovery to an abrupt halt after the covid-19 pandemic. While emerging markets in Asia are expected to substantially increase economic output -- India and China will account for half of all growth this year -- the good news will be offset by a slowdown of 90% of the world's advanced economies. . "Growth remains historically weak, both now and in the medium term," Georgieva said. The IMF chief added that global growth is likely to remain at about 3% for the next five years, the lowest medium-term forecast since the 1990s. Low-income countries are also expected to suffer a double whammy from high borrowing costs and a decline in demand for their exports, which could lead to increased poverty and hunger, according to Georgieva. "About 15% of low-income countries are already in financial stress and another 45% are close to it," he said, calling on wealthier IMF members to do more to provide support. https://www.lafm.com.co/economia/economia-mundial-crecera-menos-de-3-en-2023-fmi

Classified Pentagon documents leaked on social media show how deeply the United States has penetrated Russian intelligence services and its ability to warn Ukraine about Moscow's plans and the strength of its war machine, The New York Times reveals Saturday. The documents, from the end of February and the beginning of March, but found on social networks in recent days, talk about a Russian army exhausted in the war they waged a year ago against Ukraine and a military apparatus that is deeply compromised. But those documents also show that the United States appears to be spying on Ukraine's top military and politicians, in order to get a clear view of that country's fighting strategies. This week the New York Times reported the leak of classified documents on social media — being investigated by the FBI — detailing US and NATO plans to bolster Ukraine's offensive in the war against Russia. The documents contained tables of future arms deliveries, data on troop and battalion strengths, as well as military plans. The Pentagon said then that it is "analyzing" the publication of these documents on Twitter and Telegram, which was joined on Friday by the messaging website 4chan, with information on Ukraine, the Middle East and China. The documents reviewed by the Times lay bare the US assessment of the Ukrainian army, which is also in dire straits, the note also stated. According to the newspaper, US officials have stressed that while the documents offer clues about US methods for gathering information about the Russian plans, they do not yet know if any of their sources of information will be cut off as a result of the leak. It also claims that the release of the documents complicated relations with allied countries and raised questions about the ability of the United States to keep its secrets. The leak could also affect diplomatic relations in other ways because these documents make it clear that the United States is not only spying on Russia, but also on its allies, the newspaper added. A senior US official told the newspaper that the Pentagon had instituted procedures in recent days to "block" the distribution of highly classified briefing documents. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/america/en-ucrania-ee-uu-estaria-espiando-incluso-a-los-aliados-segun-filtracion-noticias-hoy/
