Even leaving aside electric series such as Formula E, motorsport’s electrification is gaining pace. Formula 1 and endurance racing already feature full hybrid powertrains, and in the coming years the British Touring Car Championship, Indycar Series, World Rally Championship and more will all add some level of hybrid tech. Of course, motorsport extends far beyond the rarefied air of professional series; the real challenge is electrifying the national and club levels. Even with a few notable early-adopting efforts, shifting an already hideously expensive sport to hybrid (let alone electric) power is a huge challenge. But just as issues like climate change mean the car industry is being forced to make the shift, motorsport will have to follow – and help is coming. As with all technology, it will be a trickle-down effect, starting with works-based customer racing, particularly one-make series. These enable firms to introduce relatively cost-controlled technology, while tight regulations protect a customer’s investment and allow for new innovations to be phased in without upsetting the competitive balance. And once hybrid or electric cars reach one-make series, it won’t take long for them to start finding their way into lower-tier championships. The Porsche Supercup is switching to synthetic fuels, but expect other series to go further soon. Consider Alpine, which now runs all of the Renault Group’s motorsport projects, including the Formula 1 team and the one-make Alpine A110 Cup and Renault Clio Cup. It will become an EV-only road car brand by 2025, yet boss Laurent Rossi denies there’s a contradiction in Alpine racing in F1, saying this allows the French outfit to showcase its electricity management mastery. So what of the future? He says: “We’re considering everything. We’re looking into the future being electrified. The FIA is looking into replacing most of the formulas we know today – including one that’s iconic to us, the Clio Cup – with future formulas that will be electrified. It would only be natural for us to carry on with cars that could cater to those competitions.” Given that Renault now sells a hybrid Clio, it’s not hard to imagine the next-generation Clio Cup racer will be a hybrid. But I can imagine so much more. This is pure wishful thinking on my part, but I’m already picturing an eventual one-make championship for the planned Alpine R5 electric hot hatch. That could be quite a spectacle and really further the cause of electric motorsport.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-58497904 Dozens of international passengers - including UK citizens - have flown out of Kabul in the first such flight since US forces left the country. The Qatar Airways charter flight landed in the Qatari capital Doha on Thursday, with a second flight due on Friday. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged help with evacuations during a recent visit to Qatar. Hundreds of Afghan citizens who had helped the US military were unable to get out in last month's US airlift. Reuters news agency reports that 113 people were on the plane. UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said 13 British citizens had arrived in Doha, and thanked Qatar for facilitating the flight. The White House released a statement confirming that US citizens had flown, and also thanked Qatar, saying the flight was the result of "careful and hard diplomacy and engagement". It said the Taliban had been "businesslike and professional" in helping the US citizens fly out. Canada has also confirmed that 43 of its citizens were on the flight, while the Netherlands said 13 of its nationals were on board. In a press conference held at the airport, Qatari special envoy Mutlaq bin Majed Al Qahtani described Kabul international airport as operational and said it was a historic day for Afghanistan. Qatar and Turkey become Taliban's lifeline to the outside world The flights are the first to leave since the rushed US military-led evacuations finished last month, following the Taliban takeover of the country on 15 August. More than 124,000 foreigners and Afghans fearful of Taliban retribution were flown out of the country. Around 100 US citizens were thought to be left in Afghanistan before the flight. Journalists beaten Photos have also emerged showing injuries inflicted on two journalists who covered protests on Wednesday. They are reported to have been badly beaten after being arrested by the Taliban in Kabul. "One of the Taliban put his foot on my head, crushed my face against the concrete," photographer Nematullah Naqdi told AFP news agency. "They kicked me in the head... I thought they were going to kill me." Mr Naqdi was covering a protest by women in front of a police station with his colleague at the local Etilaatroz newspaper, Taqi Darybai. Afghan journalists tell of beatings by Taliban The Taliban have banned protests unless authorised by the justice ministry. But dozens of demonstrators chanting "we want freedom" gathered near the Pakistan embassy in Kabul and Taliban gunmen opened fire to disperse them, protesters said. Local media have also reported another protest by women in Kapisa province, north-east of Kabul. Sources told Aamaj news that several women had been arrested. BBC Dari heard from a number of Afghans about the demonstrations. "It is our right to protest," said Haseeneh from Kabul. "Now that we know what the Taliban meant by their new cabinet, we will protest. They kept saying that women should wait till the Taliban announce their new cabinet. There is no single woman in the cabinet." But Alazay from the southern province of Helmand called for other countries to recognise the Taliban government. "If that happens, our lives are going to be much easier. If the protests continue and the Taliban suppress them, the international community will not recognise the Taliban's new government and do you know who will suffer? We, the people." On Wednesday, dozens of women in Kabul and the north-eastern province of Badakhshan protested against the formation of the all-male interim Taliban government. Some women, calling for the inclusion of female ministers in the government, were reportedly beaten before the demonstrations were broken up. Three people were killed during a demonstration in the western city of Herat on Tuesday. The Taliban have denied that they were behind the violence. 'I'll keep protesting until the Taliban kill me' A new order begins under Taliban rule What does the Taliban's version of religious law mean for women? Meanwhile, there are reports that the internet was temporarily taken down in parts of Kabul. Afghan journalist Bilal Sarwary tweeted that several sources in the telecom sector had confirmed to him that the Taliban had ordered mobile phone internet coverage to be turned off temporarily in several districts. Journalist Habib Khan later tweeted that the internet had been restored in the city. And separately, social media footage has emerged from the Panjshir valley said to show the desecration of the mausoleum of the well-known former anti-Taliban alliance leader, Ahmed Shah Massoud. The Taliban said on Tuesday they had taken the valley - the last region of Afghanistan holding out against their rule - from the Afghanistan National Resistance Front. The NRF, led by Ahmed Shah Massoud's son, said they would continue to fight.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-58512901 The fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban is likely to have "emboldened" so-called UK terrorists, the director general of MI5 has warned. Ken McCallum told the BBC that while the terror threat would not change overnight, there could be a "morale boost" for extremists. The UK has to be "vigilant" for a rise in "inspired terrorism", he said. A total of 31 late-stage attack plots have been foiled in the UK in the past four years, said Mr McCallum. That includes six during the pandemic period alone, he added. While they were largely Islamic extremist plots, there were also a "growing number" of attacks planned by extreme right-wing terrorists. "The terrorist threat to the UK, I am sorry to say, is a real and enduring thing," he added. Mr McCallum, speaking to BBC Radio 4's Today programme on the eve of the 20th anniversary of the September 11 attacks on the US, said that smaller-scale, "inspired" terrorist acts made up the largest number of threats faced by MI5. "There is no doubt that events in Afghanistan will have heartened and emboldened some of those extremists and so being vigilant to precisely those kinds of risks is what my organisation is focused on along with a range of other threats," he said. While the government says it will judge the Taliban by their actions, the UK security service would plan for the possibility "more risk, progressively, may flow our way", Mr McCallum said. "Terrorist threats tend not to change overnight in the sense of directed plotting or training camps or infrastructure - the sorts of things that al-Qaeda enjoyed in Afghanistan at the time of 9/11." "These things do inherently take time to build, and the 20-year effort to reduce the terrorist threat from Afghanistan has been largely successful," he said. "But what does happen overnight, even though those directed plots and centrally organised bits of terrorism take a bit longer to rebuild... overnight, you can have a psychological boost, a morale boost to extremists already here, or in other countries." While the number of large-scale terrorist attacks had been reduced, there has been an increase in "inspired terrorism", Mr McCallum said. So-called Islamic State had "managed to do something that al-Qaeda did not" in inspiring lots of people to attempt smaller scale acts of terrorism, he explained. He added: "We need to be vigilant both for the increase in inspired terrorism which has become a real trend for us to deal with over the last five to 10 years, alongside the potential regrowth of al Qaeda-style directed plots."
