Formula 1: Jonathan Wheatley Appointed as Team Principal of Kick Sauber Starting April 1
Kick Sauber has officially announced that Jonathan Wheatley will commence his role as Team Principal on April 1, 2025. The seasoned motorsport expert, who dedicated nearly 20 years to Red Bull Racing as Sporting Director, was appointed to this position last August, but the exact start date had not been revealed until now.
As Wheatley gears up for his first race in charge at the upcoming Japanese Grand Prix, he will collaborate closely with Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technical Officer Mattia Binotto as the team prepares for a new chapter under Audi’s ownership beginning in the 2026 season. His journey in Formula 1 started in the early 1990s with Benetton, where he quickly advanced to the role of Chief Mechanic. He continued to be a pivotal figure through the team’s transition to Renault before joining Red Bull Racing in 2006.

During his time at Red Bull, Wheatley was instrumental in achieving significant success, contributing to six Constructors’ Championships and seven Drivers’ Championships.
In his new role, Wheatley will report directly to Gernot Dollner, Chairman of Sauber Motorsport AG. The team’s restructured leadership will have him and Binotto jointly accountable for the performance of the racing team, as stated in an official announcement.
Reflecting on his departure from Red Bull and his future with Sauber, Wheatley shared his mixed emotions: “I am incredibly proud to have been part of the Red Bull Racing legacy over the past 18 years, filled with cherished memories,” he said. “However, the chance to contribute to Audi’s entry into Formula 1 as the head of a factory team is a uniquely thrilling opportunity, and I am eager to take on this challenge. Additionally, I am pleased to partner with Mattia, a long-time acquaintance, as he is the ideal collaborator for this exciting venture,” he added.
Wheatley’s onboarding represents a crucial step for Kick Sauber as they transition into Audi’s official team. The upcoming 2025 season will also witness an entirely new driver lineup, featuring experienced German driver Nico Hulkenberg and promising Brazilian talent Gabriel Bortoleto, who will replace Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu.

Cristiano Ronaldo Earns Rs.30 Crore in Just 90 Minutes
Sports: Football legend Cristiano Ronaldo has once again grabbed global attention with his massive earnings. Reports suggest that Ronaldo earns around Rs.30 crore from just one 90-minute football match.
The 41-year-old Portuguese star is currently playing for a club in Saudi Arabia. Under his contract, he reportedly earns around Rs.1,700 crore per year. Based on an average of 55 matches a year for both club and country, Ronaldo earns nearly Rs.30 crore for every game he plays.
This means that in just 90 minutes on the football field, Ronaldo earns an amount that is equal to the annual salary expenses of many companies.
Ronaldo’s total net worth is estimated to be more than ₹10,000 crore. He has built this enormous wealth through a football career that has lasted more than two decades. His income also comes from endorsement deals, brand promotions, business investments, and social media activities.
The scale of Ronaldo’s earnings becomes even more striking when compared to an average Indian employee. A person earning Rs.12 lakh per year would need around 2,500 years of work to earn the Rs.30 crore that Ronaldo makes from a single match.
