AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Feb. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — A ceremony in the Grand Theatre in Warsaw, Poland, saw the attendance of a limited number of senior personnel from the Alfa Romeo Racing ORLEN Formula One team – with media, fans and employees being invited to watch virtually in respect of the local COVID-19 regulations. Team drivers Kimi Räikkönen and Antonio Giovinazzi and reserve driver Robert Kubica entered the stage as the C41, in a striking new livery, was shown for the first time.

Featuring a new color scheme designed by Alfa Romeo’s Centro Stile and featuring the now traditional red and white colors of the team, the car, designed under the coordination of Technical Director Jan Monchaux, represents an evolution of the C39 that competed in the 2020 season. Owing to the restrictions imposed by the regulations, the car carries over many of the components of its predecessor, while still standing out with its renewed appearance, in particular in regard to the nosecone, an area on which the team chose to focus its development tokens. Under the bodywork lies a new Ferrari engine, ready to rev in less than a week when the team embarks on a new season with the C41’s shakedown in Barcelona on Friday.

The Alfa Romeo logo is flanked by the Quadrifoglio (four-leaf clover) traditionally associated with Alfa Romeo’s racing efforts, and the logo of Autodelta, the brand’s legendary racing team. These logos adorn the bodywork, contributing to the creation of one of the standout cars on the grid – a classic design that embodies the passion and tradition of the marques it represents.

Alfa Romeo once again partners with Sauber Motorsport for the 2021 Formula One World Championship. The partnership between two of the most recognized brands in motorsport started in 2018, when Alfa Romeo joined the team as title sponsor. In the three years of operative collaboration so far, the team has achieved important results. True to its long-lasting spirit of competitiveness, Alfa Romeo takes on the challenge once more.

Alfa Romeo and Sauber Group partnership extends beyond racing. The collaboration, both technical and commercial, allows Sauber Engineering’s technical expertise to be transferred to Alfa Romeo road car production. In particular, the Giulia GTA project benefits from this long-standing partnership, leveraging the technical know-how of Sauber AG Engineering and Aerodynamics divisions. Alfa Romeo entrusted Sauber Engineering with the production of most of the carbon components in the GTA and GTAm, especially those with aerodynamic impact. 

Frédéric Vasseur, Team Principal Alfa Romeo Racing ORLEN and CEO Sauber Motorsport AG: «The launch of a new car is always an emotional moment, the culmination of months of effort from everyone back at the factory and the start of a new adventure. I think the philosophy upon which the team is based remains the same – we have to do a better job tomorrow than we are doing today. We finished last season in P8, so we have to target a better result in 2021. To do so, we have to keep improving in each department, trackside and back at HQ. Every team on the grid has very high expectations right now: all the teams expect to do a good job in the winter and to be in a good position for the first race, but soon it will be the time for everyone to show their cards.»

Jan Monchaux, Technical Director Alfa Romeo Racing ORLEN: «The C41 is the result of a very unusual situation in Formula One, in which the regulations have made us unable to develop an entire new car for this year. For this reason, our 2021 car shares a lot of common parts with the C39, with the exception of those which the regulations forced us to change – such as the floor – and the nosecone, in which we invested our two development tokens. This means we will know the car much better than usual when we get to testing, but it’s still going to be crucial to make the most of those three days to verify that reality matches our expectations and to get to know the new tires. We are ready for the new season and we can’t wait to see our new car on track.»

LAS VEGAS, Feb. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — American Auto Shipping is proud to present its new car shipping cost calculator. This industry-changing technology is an algorithm that looks at almost 500 different points of data, in realtime, to give their customers a true, final price to ship their vehicle.

The algorithm looks at a number of different data points, including: 

• Current available listings 
• Recent shipments
• Past pickup times and days
• How quickly other vehicles on the route moved
• Seasonal routes, such as snowbirds
• Overall supply and demand on the routes
• Big weather events
• Road closures

The algorithm takes into account all of those variables, in realtime, to come up with a price that will move the customer’s vehicle within the timeframe they need it moved. 

Thanks to the new car shipping cost calculator, American Auto Shipping will be able to boast the cheapest prices among major shippers as most companies have to quote higher to be safe, or they guess at a price only for it to be too low. This in turn requires them to ask customers for more money later. 

However, American Auto Shipping has found that customers want to know what the price is without surprises or hidden fees. Using this business model in conjunction with their new car shipping cost calculator, American Auto Shipping is able to provide better services at better prices, which move vehicles in the time they need to be moved. 

The new car shipping cost calculator is designed to move standard shipments within 1-5 business days 90% of the time at the price given. Unlike other transportation companies, American Auto Shipping stands by its quotes and prices, knowing that their car shipping cost calculator is working behind the scenes to ensure great prices and quality service.

American Auto Shipping is a leader in the automobile industry. Since 1999, American has been helping customers get their vehicles shipped across the United States. As one of the oldest still-extant auto transporters in the industry, American Auto Shipping has made a name for themselves as an honest and trustworthy car shipping company.

If interested in shipping a vehicle anywhere in the United States, American Auto Shipping is there to help. Call them any time at 800-930-7417 with questions or to get a quote.

The American Auto Shipping website is another great resource that the company provides. Visiting their website, www.americanautoshipping.com, is also a great way to get information about the auto transport industry, the car shipping process, and American Auto Shipping in general. Customers can read more information about their pickup and delivery locations and even get a quote to ship their vehicle via the car shipping cost calculator.

CHICAGO, Feb. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Travel took a hit in 2020, with Millennials and Gen Z-ers feeling some of the biggest impacts as they put sports, socializing and study abroad plans on hold during what should be the most explorative time in their lives. To make up for the lost year, CheapTickets® is giving one lucky 20-something an itinerary they can look forward to: a free trip each year until they turn 30.

The winner of CheapTickets’ «Travel in Your 20s» contest will be awarded $5,000 annually in travel credits until their 30^th birthday that they can use to book a trip on CheapTickets.com¹. Contestants have 20 days to enter the contest from February 22 – March 13, 2021 and must be between the ages of 20-29 to enter.

«The pandemic has halted our travel plans and many 20-somethings have missed out on valuable time to broaden their horizons,» says Justine McDonald, Senior Brand Manager at CheapTickets. «In a survey we conducted last year, more than half of college students reported that they have not traveled since the start of COVID-19 in March 2020, and 40% said they didn’t know when they’d feel comfortable traveling again. That’s why we’re giving young travelers years of free trips to look forward to.»

Travel in Your 20s Contest Guidelines
Entries to the «Travel in your 20s» contest will be judged by creativity, originality, quality and fit to theme based on answers to three essay questions. They are:

• What is the trip you most want to take before you turn 30 and why?
• If you win, how will you decide where to go every year? Put another way, what’s your 20s travel strategy?
• Would you rather, travel edition. Would you rather wake up in foreign country without your wallet or wake up without your passport or phone? Why?

Responses are capped at 550 characters or less and participants are required to provide their name, age, address and email to enter. Based on the winners’ current age, the total prize is valued at up to $50,000.

20s Travel Inspiration 
To spark wanderlust inspiration, CheapTickets compiled a list of the most essential trips for every stage of your 20s, featuring 12 iconic destinations from around the world. Spring break spots such as Cabo’s Playa El Médano and South Florida top the list during students’ college years, while jet-setter favorites like New York and the Amalfi Coast are best for mid-20 travelers. Bucket list destinations, including Bali and Hawaii, round out the rankings as ultimate places to see before turning 30. 

Avid traveler and actress Ashley Tisdale has also teamed up with CheapTickets to share travel advice and memories from her 20s while encouraging fans and followers to enter the contest.  

«After experiencing a year without travel, I think people, especially those in their 20s, have a deeper appreciation for new experiences, growth and seeking out all that there is to do and see in the world,» says Tisdale. «In my 20s, I made so many amazing memories shooting movies, touring and pursuing my career. But some of my favorite places – like Spain, Cabo and Italy – are destinations I explored on my own and with people I love. I don’t think there’s anything that leads to growth as much as travel.»

DUBLIN, Feb. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The «Chinese Commercial Vehicle Fleet Management System Market, 2020» report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

China’s commercial vehicle (CV) fleet management system (FMS) market is currently in phase 2.0, which focuses on people-vehicle interaction. In the next 10 years, the market will enter phase 3.0, centering on technologies for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-everything (V2X), and Internet of Things (IoT).

In China, the CV market is experiencing strong growth due to the booming eCommerce industry, the wave of vehicle replacement and upgrade to meet stricter emissions regulations, and subsidies issued by central and regional governments. With these new market dynamics, huge potential has surfaced in the CV fleet management industry. Consequently, FMS providers are grappling to meet the diverse demands coming from different market segments that require fleet management solutions.

Today, most fleets use traditional FMS solutions that are largely reliant on manual processes and global positioning system (GPS) tools. GPS-based fleet management systems, however, only provide basic functionality in terms of fleet monitoring and cannot provide other much-needed services, such as preventing accidents or enabling efficient real-time communication between fleet managers and drivers. To create a more positive user experience and optimize FMS solutions, the industry needs intelligent, comprehensive solutions that use Big Data, artificial intelligence (AI), and IoT to drive cost and labor efficiency.

In a field of more than 1,000 industry participants, the publisher independently plotted the top 10 companies in this analysis. The Radar reveals the market positioning of each company using its Growth and Innovation scores as highlighted in the methodology.

The document presents competitive profiles on each of the companies based on their strengths, opportunities, and market positioning. We discuss strategic market imperatives and the competitive environment that vendors operate in as well as make recommendations for each provider to spur growth.
