Cupra Formentor VZ5
THE intention for Cupra to establish itself as a high-performance operator in the Volkswagen Group just took a substantial step forward with the new Formentor VZ5. The brand might be deep into electrifying its range, and cars like the family-friendly Terramar and Tavascan both bring valuable scale. But Cupra’s ‘soul’ is found in cars like this.

Bit of trouble with the Mini. Nothing serious, just inconvenient. Our 65,000-mile, 69-plate Cooper S was about 3000 miles short of its next major service when a warning popped up to announce that its paddle-shift auto needed new fluid and a comprehensive reset.

What do you do if you're Vauxhall? The things we worried about a few years ago – it being in the squeezed middle, neither a premium brand nor a value brand, which are the main places profitable car makers tend to be – are coming to pass. Vauxhall has the second-most dealers in this country, is still the third-most-trusted brand in some surveys and yet is currently being outsold here by Peugeot.

Wreckreation
IF you love noughties classics such as Burnout, Need for Speed and Micro Machines, then Wreckreation is the game for you. We're certainly fans of good old-fashioned driving games. Too many have become realistic simulators that require expert skills, which at times foregoes the fun of gaming.

Damien Smith
The momentum is with Lando Norris as Formula 1 embarks on a triple-header season finale, beginning with the Las Vegas Grand Prix this weekend. The 26-year-old has displayed new steel to overturn a gaping 34-point deficit to McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri, following what was then a devastating retirement from the Dutch GP in August, and now holds a healthy 24-point advantage over the Australian. No one could have predicted such a swing as Piastri celebrated at Zandvoort – or that he would make only a single podium visit in the next six races.
