Canal+ nous refait le coup : comme le match retour entre la Real Sociedad et le PSG, le choc de Ligue des champions entre le club de la capitale et le FC Barcelone ne sera pas diffusé sur le canal 4.
À chaque match de Ligue des champions, les réseaux sociaux s'interrogent sur les smartphones des footballeurs. La photo officielle de l'homme du match inclut toujours un drôle de smartphone, avec plein de caméras à l'arrière. Il s'agit en fait d'un partenariat.

Formula 1's 2024 season burst into action this past weekend at the Bahrain Grand Prix. The 10 teams had just spent three days conducting preseason testing at the Sakhir circuit, but Friday's qualifying session was the first time everyone left the sandbags in the garage. On Saturday, we got a true reflection of just how much of a gap there is between Max Verstappen in the Red Bull and the other 19 drivers.
The prospect of a third runaway championship for the Dutch driver will be too much for some fans to stomach, and social media is full of complaints from people who want to cancel their F1 subscriptions. Not everyone can find the excitement in a race for second place, after all. Luckily, F1 isn't the only game in town.
Take this year's Formula 2 season, for example. As the name suggests, it's the feeder series for F1, a place for younger drivers to cut their teeth before (hopefully) moving up to the main attraction. Everyone uses the same car in F2, and for 2024, it's all-new. The car is built by Dallara, which also makes IndyCar's chassis, the Japanese Super Formula car, the Formula 3 car, and sports prototypes for Ferrari, Cadillac, and BMW. It's powered by a 3.4 L turbocharged V6 with around 620 hp (462 kW).
Débutée en 1983, la série de Lode Runner vous a probablement marqué si vous êtes un ancien qui a notamment tâté du jeu d’arcade ou de l’Apple II, du Commodore 64, ou encore de l’Amstrad. Même les plus jeunes ont pu tester sur la console virtuelle de la Wii.
L’intérêt de ce jeu repose sur son gameplay qui consiste à traverser des niveaux composés de briques qu’on peut casser, d’échelles à grimper et de barres suspendues pour esquiver les ennemis, les tuer et récupérer les lingots d’or.
C’est simple, mais efficace et surtout terriblement addictif puisque vous devez planifier soigneusement vos mouvements et utiliser l’environnement à votre avantage pour éviter d’être capturé.
Le truc merveilleux si vous voulez retrouver les sensations de ce jeu, c’est de plonger vers ce portage HTML5 réalisé avec CreateJS. Comme ça vous pouvez jouer directement dans votre navigateur !
Le jeu propose 3 modes de jeu (challenge, entrainement et éditeur de niveau) et un mode démo qui rejoue les niveaux passés. Et Lode Runner est jouable dans 5 versions : la classique, la pro, la « revenge », la « fan book » et bien sûr la Championship.
Bien sûr le code source est dispo donc vous pouvez le porter sur la machine de votre choix si vous avez envie.

The crowd streamed onto the track before the race, seizing their last chance to see the brightly liveried cars up close. Daytona had been busy in January, but the crowd at Road Atlanta seemed even larger. To be honest, though, the race the fans were here to see would not be one for the ages. A 52-car grid packed into just 2.8 miles of race track promised potential trouble, and the 10-hour race saw 14 interruptions by the safety car, never getting into a rhythm. But I’m not sure that mattered much; the main draw for many in attendance that Saturday was simply seeing this new era of hybrid prototypes in person, and on that score, everyone left with smiles.
We’ve spilled plenty of pixels over the past 18 months or so delving into some of the minutiae of this new class of racing car, variously known as LMDh or GTP. Briefly, these are purpose-built racing cars, which start with a carbon-fiber spine from one of four racecar constructors and then add an engine, bodywork, and software from one of the four OEMs that participate, and then the same Xtrac gearbox, Williams Advanced Engineering lithium-ion battery, and Bosch electric motor as a way to keep development costs reasonable.
The rules purposely limit the amount of aerodynamic downforce a car can generate relative to the amount of drag it creates, and they positively encourage each car maker to give these race cars styling that calls out to their road-going products.

Aston Martin is set to return to the world's premier endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with a prototype Valkyrie hypercar in 2025. The return to Le Mans also signals the marque joining the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
Often talked about in hushed tones by people in the know, the idea of Aston Martin's halo hypercar entering the top flight of endurance motorsport has long been wished for, and the firm's announcement is sure to make race fans happy. The Gaydon, UK, company intends to enter at least one Valkyrie in both WEC and IMSA from 2025, giving itself a chance to take the top step at Le Mans, the Rolex 24 at Daytona, and the 12 Hours of Sebring.
The basis for the competition car is set to be the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro, an even more hardcore version of the already rather raucous Valkyrie road car. The car with license plates boasts a Cosworth-developed 6.5-liter V12 packing 1,000 hp (745 kW), mated to a 160 hp (120 kW) electric motor, giving it an F1-style kinetic energy recovery system. Its hybrid setup makes it a ferocious thing.
