and having heard from the team representative the Director FIA Single Seater Department [Nikolas Tombazis] having viewed video evidence and examined the Team’s declaration sheet determine that notwithstanding the fact that the damage was caused by highly unusual external circumstances Article 2.1 of the Formula 1 Sporting Regulations obliges all officials to apply the regulations as they are written the mandatory penalty specified under Article 28.3 of the Sporting Regulations must be applied Photo by: Motorsport Images “The stewards note that if they had the authority to grant a derogation in what they consider in this case to be mitigating however the regulations do not allow such action.” Sources suggest that the stewards spent over two hours looking for a way for the Ferrari driver to avoid a penalty so the Spaniard will be heavily penalised for exceeding the power unit component allocation for the season by taking a fifth internal combustion engine and third control electronics He will lose 10 places on the grid in Sunday's race Sainz and Ocon are due to take part in FP2 owing to a quirk in the regulations Article 31.4 of the Sporting Regulations states that cars which have undergone a change in survival cell after initial scrutineering must complete a new declaration to be approved by the technical delegate any car may not be used until the following day Courtesy of the night-time schedule for the Las Vegas GP From Formula 1 to MotoGP we report straight from the paddock because we love our sport In order to keep delivering our expert journalism we want to give you the opportunity to enjoy an ad-free and tracker-free website and to continue using your adblocker ARCHIVED - Alcantarilla mural by British graffiti artist nominated for prestigious award" style="margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px;

News & Analysis on Food & Beverage Development & Technology 10-Jun-2020 Last updated on 10-Jun-2020 at 13:41 GMT Production at the new plant, LaCocina de Alvalle, has already begun and it has a capacity of more than 25m litres of gazpachos this summer season. The 40,000m square meter Spanish facility, located in Alcantarilla, Murcia, includes three production lines, which can be extended to four. It will enable the Alvalle brand to produce 50% more than its previous plant. The new plant has also designed to ‘produce more using fewer resources’. From the fields to the final packaging, PepsiCo said all processes have been designed to be much more efficient and environmentally sustainable. The premium refrigerated gazpacho brand leverages the ‘best fresh raw materials’ combined with process innovation to ‘guarantee maximum freshness’. Each year, Alvalle uses around 29 million kilos of vegetables of 100% local origin, sourced within a radius of 200km from the plant. The tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers are picked in the fields of Murcia, Alicante and Almería; the onion in Valencia and Córdoba; and the 100% extra virgin olive from Córdoba and Jaén. PepsiCo said 98% of vegetables are picked by hand, generating around 500 indirect jobs in agriculture. In line with its focus on sustainability, the new plant has the ‘highest standards of efficiency and innovation’. The company elaborated that it is designed to use the minimum amount of natural resources required – with a particular focus on water use. Victor Pérez, Supply Chain Director, PepsiCo South West Europe, explained: "In the design of the new Alvalle production facility, sustainability has been one of the key parameters. We are well aware of the water shortage in Murcia and our intention is not only to minimize the water needed for the production of gazpacho but also to return 100% of the water used to the Segura basin.” In the last ten years, Alvalle has reduced water consumption by 60% and energy consumption by 37%. In addition, the Alvalle brand has also reduced electricity consumption by 45% and gas consumption by 55%. Now with the sustainable design of the new plant, the application of technology, and the cutting-edge equipment, its operation will be ‘even more efficient’, PepsiCo said. The business expects to reduce water consumption by an additional 30% and energy use by a further 20%. This has been achieved by using natural lighting and highly energy efficient equiptment. The new plant uses electricity from 100% renewable sources and incorporates high-efficiency boilers with heat recovery, high-efficiency cold systems, solar panels for hot water and photovoltaic panels for electricity generation. Alongside the recovery of rainwater, which is used for garden irrigation and road cleaning, the production site also uses automated, high-efficiency water purification and a system of control and monitoring of all energy and water consumption from the process lines. The plant produces ‘virtually zero waste’, PepsiCo added. The new plant, production capability and investment is in-line with PepsiCo’s plan to grow the Alvalle brand in Spain and beyond. Currently, more than 50% of Alvalle production is exported to European countries such as France, Belgium, Portugal, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The main international market for Alvalle is France, where the brand is the leader in the cold soup category. Alvalle said it aims to extend its presence both in the internal Spanish market and in other international markets, supporting the increase in vegetable consumption and making the brand an ‘ambassador for the Mediterranean diet and Spanish cuisine’. Alvalle is positioned to respond to the growing number of consumers who want to follow a healthy diet but have little time to cook, according to the company.

race reports from the men's and women's WorldTour and focuses on coverage of UK domestic cycling The Ministry of Development has announced that work has started to build a new 21.7-kilometre motorway north-west of the city of Murcia the aim being to reduce the congestion on the A-7 and the A-30 by separating local traffic from vehicles on longer-distance journeys The main cause of the traffic jams which form on a daily basis during the morning at lunchtime and again in the evening on the motorway which skirts the north-western edge of Murcia is the confluence of the A-7 which runs from Andalucía to Alicante and then north along the Mediterranean coast which leads from Cartagena in the south to Madrid in central Spain but which coincides with the A-7 for 4 kilometres between Espinardo and the Thader and Nueva Condomina shopping malls The new motorway will alleviate the problem by creating a kind of short cut for traffic between Madrid or Valencia and Andalucía (or thus easing the flow of traffic on the existing road by taking the new stretch of road and the MU-31 between Alcantarilla and El Palmar drivers will be able to travel between Madrid and Cartagena without using the “Ronda Oeste” motorway which runs alongside the western edge of the city: this is currently the busiest road in the Region of Murcia The whole project is budgeted at a cost of 139 million euros and is divided into three phases: section A 4.35 kilometres long and budgeted at 44.6 million euros section B (9.45 km and 48.7 million euros) and section C (7.9 kilometres and 45.6 million euros) The new road will run between the Alcantarilla junction on the A-7 and the Archena junction of the A-30, with 4 additional exits and entry points which will help to ease traffic in the municipalities of Archena and the work to create it has started with preparation of the land In the end its construction will entail the building of 7 viaducts Follow Murcia Today on Facebook to keep
