October 1, 2024 – Miami, FL – duPont REGISTRY Group (DRG), the trailblazer in the luxury and exotic automotive ecosystem, announces the appointment of Charles Bradley as Editor in Chief across its high-class variety of digital and print offerings. This marks a significant landmark in DRG’s commitment to elevating the luxury automotive marketplace.
Bradley will play a pivotal role in coordinating a cohesive editorial strategy across all websites and print publications within the duPont REGISTRY Group. This will include the reboot of Petrolicious, the world-famous home of classic and collector cars content that provides exclusive documentaries, short films, and original series that celebrate the art of automotive culture.
He brings over three decades of experience in publishing, both in digital and print, and joins the group after a 10-year stint as Editor in Chief of Motorsport.com, which rose to become the world’s most-read independent auto racing website spanning 20 editions in 15 languages under his command. Bradley was also instrumental in delivering three of the largest global fan surveys in sports history, and his previous roles included Editor of Autosport, widely regarded as the ‘Bible’ of motorsport magazines and a position held by only 17 people across its 75 years of weekly publication, plus a five-year stint in the aerospace sector.
“The appointment of Charles to the position of Editor in Chief across our brands demonstrates a commitment to our rich selection of digital and print editorial products,” said Antoine Tessier, CEO of duPont REGISTRY Group. “His insight into the media landscape will be vital as we transform our ecosystem through new product development and digital expansion and truly deliver on being the one-stop shop for the ultimate luxury car experience.”
“It’s a real privilege to bring all of my editorial experience and expertise to the duPont REGISTRY Group and join the amazing team of people here,” said Bradley. “My background is in high-level motorsports, but the world of luxury, classic, and exotic cars really appeals to me. Iconic magazines like duPont REGISTRY, with its wall-to-wall dream cars, watches, planes, and boats, plus Cavallino – which is a must-read for any Ferrari devotee – are a particular passion of mine. And the rebooting process of Petrolicious, with its achingly cool film content, means there’s huge scope to bring a true classic back to its former glory.”
