NASCAR star Kyle Busch has listed his 15,000-square-foot (approx.) barndominium for sale for an eye-watering sum of $4.5 million. While he resides at Lake Norman, Busch has decided to sell his Cleveland property, which spans 35.23 acres.
Unsurprisingly, the property is well-suited for racing lovers and features its own underground garages and fuel storage. A saltwater pool, a basketball court, and a bar make this home a luxury standout.
Busch bought this property from the Deegan family in 2023, who have a background in motorsport. Marissa Deegan revealed two years ago on Instagram that the property was ideal for those fond of racing. She wrote:

However, Busch has listed the property for sale after just two years since he doesn't spend enough time there. He wrote on X:
"We love this piece of land and the amazing barndominium but right now we just don't have enough time to spend there. We can't wait for someone to love it as much as we have!"

This comes after Newsweek Sports reported the sale of Kevin Harvick's South Charlotte mansion for a sum of $9.825 million. The property was co-owned by his wife, DeLana Harvick.
The mansion sat on a plot of 4.4 acres and featured a golf simulator, a pool house, a gym, and an arcade. The property was initially listed for a sum of $12 million in May 2024. Realtor Heather Gibbs stated that he was 'blown away' by the work that went into building the property. He said:
"The first time I walked through this home, I was blown away by the quality, attention to detail, and patience it took my sellers to slowly build an estate of a lifetime."
The Harvicks also own a property in Cornelius that became famous for featuring in the movie Talladega Nights. DeLana reportedly bought it for $6.75 million in 2023.

Mercedes Formula One Team Reports Massive $120 Million Revenue Boost

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Mercedes Formula One team has reported a significant revenue increase of approximately $120 million (as per today's exchange rates). Sixty percent of the earnings come from sponsorship and licensing. From the data published by the UK's Companies House, as published by Mercedes Grand Prix Limited, the parent company of the Mercedes F1 team, reported a turnover of approximately $856 million (£636 million) in 2024, which is a stark increase from 2023's $735 million (£546.5 million). Consequently, profits too have jumped significantly. Mercedes recorded an approximate $112.7 million (£83.8 million) net profit in 2023, with the number rising to $162 million (£120.34 million) in 2024, an increase of approximately $50 million.

CLARY/AFP/Getty Images It is noteworthy that Mercedes received a significant share of the F1 prize money for securing second place in the 2023 Constructors' Championship, which increased its revenue in 2024 since payments are processed the following year. As a result of the positive earnings, the team's three shareholders, Mercedes-Benz Group, team principal Toto Wolff, and Ineos, will receive an ordinary dividend of approximately $168 million (£125 million). However, it remains to be seen what impact Mercedes' performance in the 2024 season will have on its earnings, considering it secured fourth place in the championship. In addition, it would be interesting to see a change in the percentage of earnings from sponsorships, given seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton's exit from the team after the 2024 season. Speaking of 2025, the season has been dominated by McLaren thus far. Mercedes achieved its first win in the previous round in Montreal, where the team's lead driver, George Russell, started from pole position and led the race for the majority of the laps to secure his first win of the year. However, rumors are doing the rounds that Russell is on Aston Martin's radar for the 2026 season, when the sport enters a new era of regulations. Newsweek Sports reported Russell's comments, who confirmed the interest shown by other teams but emphasized his intention to continue racing for Mercedes. He said: "No, I'm not talking with anybody else and any teams who have shown interest. I have been quite open to say my intentions are to stay with Mercedes. That's always been clear. "And, you know, I am loyal to Mercedes. They gave me this chance to get into Formula 1. There haven't been any hard feelings with any of the talks that have been going around, you know, especially around Max because, like I said numerous times, why wouldn't teams be interested in Max if everybody could, if every driver had a clean, no contracts for next year, Max would be the number one for every single team. And that's understandable. "But ultimately there are two seats for every race team and I knew if I continued to perform as I'm doing, my position would not be under threat whatsoever. So, I feel in a good place. We're in no rush to do contract negotiations."

Man Living at Sea Shares Daily Life—Then Brings Out the Metal Detector

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A 27-year-old man from Australia gained traction on social media after sharing what a day in his life, living full time aboard a catamaran, looks like. Then he brought out his metal detector and shocked internet users with an incredible find. In a viral TikTok video shared in June under the username @thegood_pirate, Baden LeSueur shares what a "realistic day as a solo pirate treasure hunter" looks like. It starts with a golden sunrise and a cup of coffee, before he sets sail to find local hidden treasures. After climbing a palm tree to get a fresh coconut on Hammerhead Bay, and leaving his pup to nap peacefully, LeSueur grabs his metal detector and starts the search. Immediately, the metal detector starts beeping, signaling something is underneath. However, when LeSueur unearths the finding, it turns out to be just a coin. Refusing to give up just yet, he continues the search, and after finding a bunch of waste, he finally gets another beep. "I see a tiny bit a gold and at this point my heart is racing; I wonder if it's real gold," LeSueur can be heard saying in the clip, as he showcases his finding, a 22-carat gold ring with a red stone on top, which he still hasn't been able to identify. Pictures shared by LeSueur show him documenting a day in his life as a "solo pirate." Pictures shared by LeSueur show him documenting a day in his life as a "solo pirate." thegood_pirate Jewelry can have different metal density, and 22-carat gold is about 91.7 percent pure. According to at the time of writing this article, the price of gold is approximately $3,366 per troy ounce, although it fluctuates throughout the day. LeSueur told Newsweek that, before living on his catamaran, he had started his own business, straight after high school, a jumping castle company that he owned for many years. But his goal was always to save up for a catamaran of his own that he could use to sail around the world. "I used to post lots of ocean content and dreamed about producing my own videos to inspire people and help fund my adventures out on the sea. One day, I decided to take the gamble, sold everything, and bought a broken-down boat down in Sydney. This is when my online career really kicked off," LeSueur said. Now he lives full-time on his catamaran with his number-one crew mate, his pup Kida, who follows him on his daily adventures. LeSueur said: "From battling storms, to catching our own meals so we can eat, to finding people's long lost treasure on the bottom of the seabed and the crystal-white beaches along the Australian shoreline. With any luck, I'll hopefully be able to return the lost items to their owner or sell to a jeweler to help cover the costs of boat maintenance." The pair eat a lot of what they catch along the way, spearfishing and lots of coconuts. LeSueur also always makes sure to have appropriate safety equipment and protocol on board, to keep himself and his companion safe. He checks he is always carrying an emergency position-indicating radiobeacon (EPIRB), and that he always lets someone know where he is and where he is headed. "My dream is to continue the adventure, live off the ocean, and hunt for artifacts and treasure around the world. Since sharing my content, people call me 'The Good Pirate.' Sailing has been in my blood ever since I was a kid. My dad was a sailor and his dad was also a sailor. As a child, we spent a lot of time on the water," LeSueur added. Among his findings, there has been "mostly junk," but also some occasional rings made of platinum, silver, or gold. LeSueur said: "We've also found lots of coins, which I use to do my laundry. "Every day is an adventure, even from a sail tearing in 35 knots of wind to a glass-out sunset with fish under the boat. Each day is an adventure," he added. The video quickly went viral on social media and has so far received almost 60,000 views and more than 6,000 likes on the platform. One user, James, commented: "I'm stuck doing my dead job while you're doing this …" Mike said: "Do you run any calculations on your lucky finds? I curious how much money does a pirate do from selling the gold." Betty added: "What an incredible find! Must have been an amazing feeling to uncover such a treasure."

Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt Jr. wins NASCAR national series debut as crew chief at Pocono

LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Dale Earnhardt Jr. might already be NASCAR's most popular crew chief. He's certainly an undefeated one. Pressed into unexpected service, Earnhardt called the shots for 18-year-old prospect Connor Zilisch in the No. 88 Chevrolet and they landed in victory lane Saturday in the second-tier Xfinity Series race at Pocono Raceway. 'We had a lot of things going our way,' Earnhardt said. Earnhardt — who won NASCAR's most-popular driver award 15 times — made a pit stop from his day job as team owner at JR Motorsports with normal crew chief Mardy Lindley suspended one race because of a lug nut infraction this month at Nashville. Aside from his duties as team owner, Earnhardt also was at Pocono for his role on the Prime broadcast for the NASCAR Cup Series race Sunday. 'Lot of fun for me today,' Earnhardt said. 'I missed the thrill of competition. I love broadcast, don't get me wrong. But nothing compares to driving or just being part of the team. Being an owner doesn't really deliver like this. This is a lot of fun.' Earnhardt had his wife and two young daughters in tow with him as he made the celebratory walk to victory lane. Oldest daughter Isla Rose clutched the checkered flag while youngest Nicole Lorraine soaked in the scene from her dad's arms. The win continued a banner season for the NASCAR Hall of Fame driver — who swept two races at Pocono as a driver in 2014 — after JR Motorsports and reigning Xfinity Series champion Justin Allgaier qualified for the season-opening Daytona 500 and secured their Cup Series debut. Earnhardt won two Daytona 500s, in 2004 and 2014, and 26 races overall. His side hustle Saturday was made a bit easier with Zilisch behind the wheel. Zilisch, who turns 19 in July, raced to his second Xfinity victory of the season and third of his young career. He won his Xfinity debut last year at Watkins Glen International. Earnhardt even pitched in during the race and tossed tires over the wall during pit stops. 'Dale Junior, not too bad on the box,' Zilisch said. 'Pretty cool to have him up there. Getting him a 1-for-1 win as crew chief is pretty awesome.' ___
