From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Lego has revealed its latest entry into the Technic range of supercars: The Ferrari Daytona SP3 – a 1:8 scale replica of the rear mid-engine sports car.

The 3,778-piece model includes an eight-speed sequential gearbox and paddle shifters inside its painstakingly recreated cockpit with the Ferrari logo embossed on its steering wheel.

First unveiled by Ferrari in November 2021 for the 2023 model year, the Daytona SP3 is the latest in the “Icona” series of high-performance cars being produced by the Italian manufacturer. And this model is a miniature replica packed full of features.

Flavio Manzoni, chief design officer at Ferrari, said of the new model: “Thanks to this outstanding recreation with Lego elements, Ferrari and Lego fans can now build this car piece-by-piece and feel like they are participants in the assembly process, with the opportunity to display the final model in their own homes, where they will be able to appreciate its beauty”.
