ellen muska. it's 2021 person of the year. the magazine says the chief executive of tesla and space x is the best example of a massive shift in our society. it credits the 50 year old with creating solutions to global crises and embodying the possibilities and perils of the age of tech titans. the magazine says it gives the award to someone who affects the news or the world in the biggest way for better or worse. will ellen mosque is worth around $261000000000.00 a figure that makes him number one on the global rich list. born in south africa, his fortune really took off 20, sold paypal to e bay, nearly 20 years ago. since then, he's made billions through his electric car company, tesla, and aerospace firm space x. but not all of his ideas are money spinners. hyper loop, which is a vacuum power train was brand that

a gimmick. moving far fewer people at far greater expense than traditional rails and social media parades have seen him attack a man who helped rescue a group of ty, children from a cave, post corona, virus, misinformation, and lose tesla investor is money. and this by big talk he, he gives relatively little to charity. one grand suggestion that he would give $6000000000.00 to the world food program came to nothing. while it speak to tim hubbard, an assistant professor of management at the university of north damon indiana, who studies that chief executives a sir, thank you so much for joining us now. time magazine always says that this is a really, i know war to as such, they're not necessarily saying, you know, this person is, is a force for good, but they just say he's a very influential person. would you agree with time choosing him as person of the year? yes, i would. if we stand back and think about all eli mosque has been able to achieve,

it's quite impressive. and if you step back, even 20 years new trying to think about where the auto industry would be, for example, without her slower, where our space industry would be without space ex. i don't think we would quite be expecting the same results if you on mosque, hadn't been there taking the risks, innovating and really, you know, going for it. i think it's been been quite inspiring from that perspective. but so when time magazine says that i'm choosing him, he eat be they choosing him because he's a, the best example of a massive shift in our society. so not just necessarily being a successful businessman or entrepreneur, but also representing this shift in society. how do you interpret that? i think they're exactly right when we think about the, the antics that he does, for example, on twitter, and the effect that it has in stock markets and social conversations around the world. it is beyond just the accomplishments that he's had in business, and not all of it has been for good. there's been concerned with, you know, working conditions in the companies and the way that he approaches things.

philanthropy for example. but when you stand back and you think about, if we, if we took elan musk out of the world, there would be a big gap and whether not that's a purely good got for a bad gap. there would still be quite a, quite a large gap. yeah. mean, he certainly is famous for his antics on twitter, some of which we probably should mention because i'm sure someone watching us around the world is having breakfast right about now. so they probably don't need to know the details. now you must, you know, they don't, you must famously at said that he wants to go to mars. amena is that to so use time man of the year now, but is that what we should be looking out for in his future? and i guess the was future i think so if we stand back and we think about the big audacious goals, the space acts had when they started and they've achieved most everything that they set out for up to now whether not it's, you know, been on timer or a little bit later, it is very, very impressive. and so they've been having that goal of mars in their sites for

a very long time. and so i think that the steps that they're taking right now look like they're on the path to, to, to meet that goal. it's going to be challenging, obviously. but i think that they are their vision of having that as, as something that they want to achieve. i think that they have the right people to write technology. and right now the right leader in order to be able to achieve those goals. tim huh. hubbard, at from the university of not a dre a day met in indiana. sir, thank you. thank you very much. a black and white film about childhood and northern ireland than, than american western made in new zealand that lead the nominations for next year's golden globes. kenneth branagh has altered by graphical belfast and the power of the dog picked up 7 nodes each. the u. s. t v shows including a succession and hollywood blockbusters like west side story also did well. while south korean hit squid game picked up 3 nominations, and the french series,

a mistake that just kind of thing sometimes happened, especially the football players and the managers. so sometimes i was too old. oh, but as people say no, this does open is better than the other one. hose them in that the stages are difficult. why? so this is what the round of 16 looks like after every roll. ronaldo and majesty united had initially been drawn against my wall. now they have to play a political my breed. i for p s g. they in our face real madrid, the spanish league leaders were 1st drawn against the ban feca club, but might feel aggrieved as well. liverpool had drawn red bull sauce the day and now have to get pos, italian champions and to mid on i to see nice to have closed on their training complex. so following a corona virus outbreak, among staff and players and a statement, the club said that those who tested positive are isolating in accordance with leak

protocols. the man you are now assessing whether it is still safe for tuesday. it's primarily game with brent to go ahead and they've delayed traveling to london for that much. his opponents, bradford have had their own corona virus troubles at defend 8th and the pin is set to miss at least one more game. while striker van tony is now out of isolation and is expected to play if the game goes ahead, tottenham had to postpone their european fixture again for then and the premier league match with brighten after 8 plays and 5 staff members tested positive. meanwhile aston villa and brighton are tightening their cope with 900 protocols. falling outbreaks and their squats were all racing will fight to any court orders lodged by mercy. this following master stop. and 1st formula, one will title those hamilton that had been leading the derby gone 11 seconds

popular stop and was able to catch up after a late safety car. the closest title raised in decades then came down to a final lapse sprint. the dutchman had the advantage of new ties and claimed his maiden will campy ship to protest from their see. this was dismissed by the formula stewards. but the team said they will appeal to the world governing body of mosul lake thing. yeah, i mean, this was my last go in san milan where i wanted to become a, a well champion, you know, we have po positions, floss slabs, race winds, all of that. but this was the ultimate dream. and nowadays, you know, we have achieved that basically for me, everything. what comes next is, is a bonus. what does come next for max us up a few more years and formula where i'm going to enjoy it. we're now joined by launch hub i to a senior writer at at floss dot com. lauren, thank you very much for joining us. first of all,

how far do you think mercy this will push it? these appeals it? oh really comes down. see how much of a case they feel that they can build like can be successful if they decide to follow through with a pill. they've got 96 hours slots, around 7 o'clock, u k. time on thursday to decide if they want to do site. and if they don't take it to the international court of appeal, but at any j site, if they hear they from when those what's your take on how the race ira applied the rules? obviously it was in favor of vir staffing. so in terms of mercedes, ca, they fill that either the race or i to select all of the unlocked cost $3.00 or no unlike and none of the cost $3.00. and unfortunately in the have ye, michael massey, any let 5 of them through now the cause between louis and mux not allowed mac subs . he be up right behind louis and on the fresh a ties and get ahead. and they just feel that the rules in their view wasn't

applied properly. it's, it's kind of out to them now. so if they wanna go forward with it is an interpretation of the rules. disuse of made that decision. and if we go to the instructional court of appeal, they'll have to make their own decision. well, you've been covering f one for a long time. now, do you think hamilton would rather just move on and not try to win his 8th well title in the courts? yeah i, i know that louis when he wants to win the approach he takes to racin, as he wants to do it fair and square. and he's always been like that. he's never really had any controversy around his own type moments. so in an ideal world, he would have loved to have won the 8th well, tied to on the track of z is up to the teens side. if they want to continue, they do feel it. they were hot done by he was done in a, in that race, not dobbin. you know, up until the last up he was going to be a nighttime or champion. they might feel that they want to continue, but from lewis's perspective, i think he would have wanted to went out in the truck and therefore yeah,

in an ideal world he would have kind of put this behind him and, and try and push on the next year and have another guy in 2020, say, going back to max their stop and how significant is this wall title for him? it's huge and we've seen max over the years kind of been billed as the next big thing and he hadn't really taken the next step in a chairmanship contender. this was the 1st year that he had the chance he had to college compete and he's taken the opportunity. he won more races this year than any one else. he took robo positions than any one else. he's really proved that he's got that talent and it should be the dawn of the new era. it could take formal one into another stratosphere last prior to senior writer f one doc. com. thank you very much for that. ah.

a great opportunity for them to read and make sure it got better. you a record full arab teams were the 2018 finals in russia, but none made it out of that group. and no our team has ever reached a world cup call to final. this time around though it will be less of a step into the unknown and the are familiar with stadium or with the rain. and no matter what, i mean there is a little bit of a psychological home field advantage are also having the problem. and i mean, like logically, they're always like envisioning things, you know, and they're going to help a lot of the players envision, hopefully not only twice before is the 2 men being held outside of the americas or europe in 2002 south career and japan. co hosted the well cut, both themes made it out of that group and south korea got as far as the semi finals . and when the event went to africa for the 1st time in 2010, gonna go within

a penalty kick at the last 4 kit. so have never previously played a world cup of the oration champions and have competed as a guest team and a series of continental tournaments to prepare for the challenge. ahead. having followed the national team for a long time, no more than a decade. i think the mentality of the team is teach that they're ready to take on challenges. they're ready to face any team. and even if they've had some bad results over the last 2 years, i think the concord, the fact that they're ready and on the data can perform against any team. it's nearly time for our footballs. finest to answer the call of a world cup. it will look and sound like no other me on the richardson al jazeera. that's all for now. but let's recap. our top soy, the champions league roll for the round of 16 has been read on the following. a
