Santiago Abascal stated that if the number of homes had not changed while five million people had arrived, it meant that there were not enough houses. He argued that the solution was to increase the supply, although he noted that construction could not be done quickly, and he called for the initiation of a process of “remigration” for those who, according to him, were in Spain without working or contributing. #CrisisDeVivienda #Inmigración #PolíticaEconómica (translated)
RealSeasonNT stated that as long as Madrid's coaches continued to be dependent on Mbappé, the team would continue to suffer. It rejected the notion that the problem was limited to Tito and asserted that he had ruled the player out since a trip to Paris last season, stating he would not renew and was expected to leave the club of his own accord this summer. The author wondered why no coach dared to sideline the Frenchman. He claimed that Carlo, XA, Cinci, and Mou had all ended up leaving after continuing to bet on him, whom he labeled a burden and linked to the inability to win. As an example, he cited that day's match: he stated that Mbappé, despite being injured and not in condition to play, was a starter, spent 90 minutes on the field, and missed five clear chances. According to RealSeasonNT, from the first minute he showed a lack of speed and power, and spent a good part of the match walking and watching the game. He also maintained that Mou did not substitute him even when the team was playing with ten, so, in practice, they were left with nine for several minutes while Mbappé remained motionless. #RealMadrid #Mbappe #Fútbol (translated)

Nachez stated that Aston Martin would have chosen shorter gear ratios in the gearbox introduced in Baku to better adapt the transmission to the Honda engine, which he described as weak. According to him, the change would not increase power but would improve acceleration up to about 300 km/h by better transmitting thrust to the wheels. He added that, above that speed, the AMR26 would perform worse than before. The author considered that Singapore could favor the car due to its numerous slow corners and the scarcity of stretches above 300 km/h. He also noted that the effect of the Rev 1 mode would need to be evaluated, which, he said, had been applied in Monaco and caused electrical energy to start decreasing earlier, giving more importance to the internal combustion engine. The publication cited DPerformanceF1. #AstonMartin #F1 #MejorasDeRendimiento (translated)

Lucas Abriata announced that Carbriata 2027 would be held on February 27 and 28 at the Autódromo de Dolores, about two hours from Buenos Aires, with a presentation by Bybit. He said that the event would bring together 200 iconic cars, from Falcon and Ferrari models to rally and Turismo Carretera vehicles, and that the cars would circulate throughout the day so that the public could see and hear them up close. Abriata noted that the edition would have two track sections, measuring 1,100 and 700 meters, that would operate simultaneously, and that the cars could perform exhibitions there with no speed limit. He also announced a stage for launches, talks, and live auctions with no reserve price; a free space offered to car manufacturers to showcase new models; almost 10,000 square meters of shade tents, compared to 450 square meters in 2026; and at least five categories of awards. According to Abriata, both days would have similar schedules: Saturday would include more presentations and launches, while Sunday would feature the awards ceremony. He added that the venue would cover 100 hectares, that parking would be free, and that children under 12 would not pay admission. He also warned that there was a maximum capacity and that it would not be possible to expand the space if it filled up. The organizer said that the 2026 edition had left him with a lot of stress, but that it had been a very positive experience and had provided him with lessons that could be applied to the next edition. #Carbriata #EventoDeAutos #Argentina (translated)
