Formula 1
- Published: 2026-03-03 06:18 Beijing Time
- Abstract: - Formula 1 is three competitions in one: a contest between the world’s best drivers at 200 miles per hour, an engineering World Cup where teams of a thousand people spend hundreds of millions of dollars to design cars from scratch, and—as one of our listeners perfectly described it—“The Real Housewives of the garage,” a soap opera of billionaire egos, team politics, and paddock drama that makes for incredible reality television.
  - It is also the world’s most popular annual sports series, with over 827 million fans globally, a fact that would shock most Americans who, until a recent hit Netflix series, had never heard of it.
  - Today we tell the story of how a chaotic, deadly, and dysfunctional European series became one of the greatest business stories in sports.
  - For decades, brilliant engineers and daring drivers dedicated their lives (and often lost them) to a league controlled for 45 years by one man: a former London car dealer named Bernie Ecclestone, who centralized power and siphoned off billions of dollars, while also undeniably making the sport successful through his own sheer will.
  - Then, the American company Liberty Media acquired the entire company in 2017, assembled a team of Fox Sports and ESPN veterans, and did what Bernie never did—professionalize it.

Formula 1
- Release Time: 2026-03-03 06:18 Beijing Time
- Summary: - Formula 1 is a competition that combines three events in one: a contest where the world’s best drivers compete at speeds of 200 miles per hour, an engineering World Cup where teams of a thousand people spend hundreds of millions of dollars to design cars from scratch, and—as one of our listeners perfectly described it—“The Real Housewives of the Garage,” a soap opera of billionaire egos, team politics, and paddock drama that makes for incredible reality TV.
  - It is also the world’s most popular annual sports series, with over 827 million fans globally, a fact that would shock most Americans who, until a recent hit Netflix series, had never heard of it.
  - Today we tell the story of how a chaotic, deadly, and dysfunctional European series became one of the greatest business stories in sports.
  - For decades, brilliant engineers and daring drivers dedicated their lives (and often lost them) to a league controlled by one man for 45 years: a former London car dealer named Bernie Ecclestone, who centralized power and raked in billions of dollars while, undeniably, making the sport successful through his own efforts.
  - Then, the American company Liberty Media acquired the entire enterprise in 2017, assembled a team of veterans from Fox Sports and ESPN, and did what Bernie never did—professionalize it.
- EN Highlights:
  - Formula 1 is three competitions in one: a 200mph battle of the world’s best race car drivers, the world cup of engineering where thousand-person teams spend…

How To Avoid AI Design Slop
- Release Time: 2026-03-07 03:25 Beijing Time
- Abstract: - You’ve probably heard of OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot/Moltbot).

  - Now, meet the person behind it.
  - YC’s Raphael Schaad sits down with OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberger to discuss the “aha” moment behind the viral personal AI agent, why local-first agents could replace many of today’s apps, and how personal agents will reshape the future of software.
