Watch Schumacher's hot lap of Nürburgring in Mercedes F1 car

Watch Schumacher's hot lap of Nürburgring in Mercedes F1 car

In advance of the Nürburgring 24-hour race last weekend, Mercedes-Benz put on a demonstration that had Michael Schumacher playing catch-up in a Formula One car against four examples of AMG metal. There were four cars sent off in staggered starts before Schumacher: an A45 AMG, E63 AMG 4Matic, SLS AMG Black Series, and an SLS AMG GT3 car. "Mr. Formula One," as the German television commentators call him, left three minutes after the SLS AMG GT3.
There are two videos of Schumacher's lap, the first is on-board footage - and even though there were several GoPros on the car the POV never cuts away from the front wing.

Report: Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 will feature Intel Clover Trail+

According to a new report, Samsung's next-gen Galaxy Tab will not rely on silicon made in house as others have in the past. Nor will the slate be powered by the ARM processors typically associated with Android devices. Instead, Samsung has opted to go with Intel's Clover Trail+ CPU for the 10.1-inch version of the Galaxy Tab 3, according to Reuters. If these reports pan out, it would mark the highest-profile android launch for Intel.

Google interested in acquiring Waze, could launch bidding war with Facebook

Google interested in acquiring Waze, could launch bidding war with Facebook

With word surfacing that Facebook is in talks to acquire Waze, the social map and navigation outfit, for around $1 billion, sources now say Google has tossed their hat in the ring. No stranger to acquiring startups, the move is not surprising. The addition of Waze to Google's portfolio would also keep the company out of the hands of competitors. There is no guarantee that any company will walk away with Waze under their wing, however. While the most serious talks have taken place with Facebook, Google and other parties have expressed interest.

Holden vows to stay the course in Australia despite Ford exit

Holden vows to stay the course in Australia despite Ford exit

With arch rival Ford of Australia having announced earlier this week that it will cease all in-continent manufacturing in 2016, you might think that General Motors' Holden division might be feeling a bit more confident about its future prospects. Yet that doesn't necessarily appear to be the case. At least for the moment, Ford's headline-grabbing announcement may take some of the wind out of the sails of Holden's new VF Commodore lineup (SS model pictured above), a critical new range launching right now.

Today, the company released a video on YouTube showcasing their history of wireless innovation, spanning from the first touch-based handheld devices in 1998, all the way to the masterpiece that is the HTC One in 2013.

Italian government to lean on Fiat's Marchionne to commit to country

Italian government to lean on Fiat's Marchionne to commit to country

With the recent chatter that Fiat is looking to move its global headquarters to the US following a complete merger with Chrysler, the Italian government is voicing its opinion on the matter. Facing the potential job loss from the automaker leaving the country, Italy's industry minister is meeting with Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne in what will likely be a plea to keep the company based in Turin rather than moving to Auburn Hills, MI – if indeed it is able to acquire the additional 41.5 percent of Chrysler currently owned by the United Auto Workers.
