Veloce Racing leading the net-zero carbon charge in pioneering all-electric off-road series
Team aiming to drive change in motorsport industry by joining forces with sustainability solutions provider
ALLCOT to measure and help offset all of team’s pre and in-season carbon production

Strengthening its resolve to lead the way both on and off the track during the inaugural campaign of Extreme E next year, Veloce Racing has become the first of the innovative electric off-road series’ teams to announce a carbon offset partner, after reaching an agreement with ALLCOT Group.

ALLCOT is a global authority in carbon-offsetting and sustainability initiatives, and teamed up with Extreme E in September with the goal of achieving a net-zero carbon footprint by the end of the championship’s first season.

With environmental sustainability at the very heart of Veloce Racing’s core values – as one of the London-based outfit’s four main pillars, alongside gender equality, automotive electrification and engaging new audiences through esports – the team was eager to make a similar commitment and is the first Extreme E entrant to take this significant step.

The agreement will see ALLCOT measure and help Veloce Racing to offset all of the carbon produced from the moment that the team signed up to compete in Extreme E in September, 2019 – covering the full build-up to the series’ maiden campaign as well as the entire season of racing next year.

Veloce Racing is firmly focussed on its net-zero carbon objective stretching into 2021 and beyond, and in ALLCOT, the team has the perfect partner. The organisation’s tireless work to reduce carbon emissions directly supports the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, which call upon governments, businesses and communities to protect the planet and put an end to poverty.

In addition to its carbon offset pledge, Veloce Racing’s sustainability credentials will be further enhanced by Extreme E’s environmental ethos. All competing cars will be 100% electric, zero-emission vehicle charging will use Hydrogen Fuel Cells generated by water and solar energy, limited team numbers will be permitted on-event and all freight and logistics will be transported to race locations by boat, which it is estimated will reduce carbon by two-thirds in comparison with air travel.

Daniel Bailey, CEO, Veloce Racing, commented:

“Partnering with ALLCOT Group is a significant moment in Veloce Racing’s journey. Ever since our organisation was founded, we have prided ourselves on being pioneers and leading the way amongst our peers – and sustainability has always been one of our three core pillars.

“ALLCOT Group’s philosophy perfectly matches our own, and offsetting all of our carbon emissions from the moment we joined Extreme E over a year ago is a key element of our participation in this unique championship. We are fully committed to playing our part in the preservation of our planet – and we look forward to working closely with ALLCOT Group to achieve our net-zero carbon objective.”

Alexis Leroy, CEO, ALLCOT Group, commented:

“This landmark partnership with Veloce Racing is a great opportunity to open the path to sustainability leadership not only with Extreme E but also with its main stakeholders, the teams.

“We welcome Veloce Racing’s leadership and look forward to showcasing impacts compensation beyond greenhouse gas. Working hand-in-hand with Veloce Racing in that respect will allow us to send a strong message within the world of motorsport as we hope this initiative will build traction among its peers.”

The 2021 Extreme E season is set to begin in Al-Ula, Saudi Arabia (20-21 March) before moving on to Dakar, Senegal (29-30 May), Kangerlussuaq, Greenland (28-29 August), Para, Brazil (23-24 October) and Tierra Del Fuego, Argentina (11-12 December).

Greentube, the NOVOMATIC Interactive division, has launched Cash Connection – Golden Sizzling Hot on 14th July 2026. The new title extends the supplier’s Cash Connection series and introduces a gold-themed variant with updated bonus mechanics.

Cash Connection – Golden Sizzling Hot is played on a 5×3 grid with five win lines. Landing six or more disc symbols triggers a Lock & Spin feature, with access to four jackpots across the game and two bonus prizes. The Grand Jackpot can be triggered by landing 15 discs during the feature, which also ends the round.

Greentube said the Mini and Minor jackpots are tied to a separate Winning Spins feature. In this mode, played on a different set of reels without disc symbols, “every spin is a guaranteed win,” according to the company.

Richard Ganster, Director of Games Strategy and Games Portfolio Management at Greentube, said: “Cash Connection has grown into one of our most consistently popular game families, and Golden Sizzling Hot shows exactly why we keep coming back to expand it.

The Lock & Spin feature has always been a strong draw for players, but what really sets this edition apart is the guaranteed Winning Spins feature. Landing a Mini or Minor jackpot doesn’t just add a cash value; it opens the door to a round where every spin wins, and that’s a great incentive for players.

“Giving the game a golden makeover was about more than just a new look. It’s part of how we keep our most established franchises feeling fresh, and Golden Sizzling Hot is a great example of that balance between familiarity and evolution.”

Habanero has launched Galaxy Babies, a new 5×3 slot released on 14 July 2026, built around a Black Hole mechanic that randomly drops blocks of Wild symbols onto the reels.

The game runs on 25 paylines. In the base game, the Black Hole can appear at random and “warp in” Wild symbol blocks across the reels. Habanero said Wilds in the title are only triggered through the Black Hole feature.

A free spins mode triggers when three or more Scatter symbols land, with up to 50 free spins available and retriggers during the bonus round. In free spins, Habanero said the Black Hole “grows,” creating larger 3×3 and 4×4 Wild blocks.

Galaxy Babies also supports Habanero’s Jackpot Race, Buy Feature and Super Bet, which the supplier said gives operators options when configuring the game for different player preferences. The release follows recent titles including Happy Hatchlings, Nuwa Deluxe and Steampunk Plinko.

Toni Karapetrov, Head of Corporate Communications at Habanero, commented: “Galaxy Babies is a title with a lot of personality and a mechanic that delivers real impact. The Black Hole Wild is simple to understand but creates moments that feel genuinely exciting.

“It is a game that will appeal to a broad range of players, and we are looking forward to seeing how it performs across our operator network.”
