Unlike Farage to be hanging out with a fraudster convicted of conspiracy...

"In 1986, Briatore was sentenced to three years in Milan for fraud and conspiracy, having been part of a team that set up rigged gambling games using fake playing cards. "

I like the way modern #F1 drivers are mature enough to go for a round of golf together after lunging at each other and calling each other idiots on track. I don't think the retired drivers like Villeneuve can quite understand how you can be both friends and ruthless rivals.

Michael Massi would be looking to give Norris a pen for that instead of Tsunoda for wearing all the way down the straight.

Wondering if Verstappen's first stint is going to be quite long because of the lack of a gap to pit into and the lack of pace has been tyre management

Poor Yuki. Get to Q3 and we'll reward you by sacrificing you to the main man. Red Bull is brutal. #F1 #abudhabigp

Assuming a Verstappen win, Norris loses the championship by a point if he finishes 4th but there's no reason to assume that there's anyone starting behind who can challenge him on os r other than Piastri.

I hope McLaren resists the temptation to intervene between the drivers.

Radio 5 Live asking "Brexit - time to think again?"

Hmm.

Attempted thinking got us into this mess.Telling is what's required. The evidence is in and indisputable.

If McLaren somehow lose the #F1 Drivers' Championship to Max Verstappen, this radio message from Joseph will still haunt them long when we're gone.

It's now risky for McLaren to go all in behind Norris.

SCENARIO 1:

1st Verstappen
2nd Piastri

Norris needs to finish 3rd+

SCENARIO 2:

1st Piastri
2nd Verstappen

Norris needs to finish 5th+

The sprint might have been boring but it's nowhere near as boring as watching Ferrari turn up every race weekend.

If it's true that Tsunoda is out of #F1 at the end of this season then no need to play the team game and let Verstappen past

Suspect Reform UK won't like this.

"Tax on profits made by gambling firms from online bets to rise from 21% to 40% in April, alongside abolition of 10% bingo tax"

Labour ahs received donations from the gaming sector though.

"The idea that the United States of America is not engaging with both sides equally in this war to bring it to an end is a complete and total fallacy," she told reporters. (WH spokedummy)

Why would you want to do it "equally"?

Piastri seems underpriced for the championship given that's he level on points with Verstappen. Of the three drivers.

He tends to finish seasons poorly compared to NOR and VER though and the momentum is clearly with the other two.

I'm starting to think this might come through and Verstapoen wins his fourth world championship.

Verstappen is now second favourite behind Norris.

Trump was ok with Mamdani calling him a fascist while next to him in the Oval Office not because trump is a good sport ever but because he believes everyone else is as empty and cynical as he is, and that Mamdani just says those things for the base and couldn’t possibly mean it even tho Zohran does

It's striking just how many people are now prepared to be identified and go on the record in accusing Farage of having a history of gross racism.

And how they corroborate each other.

www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Twenty people allege he has a racist past. He denies it. Who’s telling the truth about Farage’s schooldays?
Reform UK’s leader refuses to answer questions about his abusive behaviour, claiming there’s ‘no evidence’. We talk to victims and witnesses

Most of the public know what’s going on with flags on lamp posts.

Crucially for the government, 78% of its 2024 voters think anti-minority sentiment is involved in flying England flags (versus just 15% who think it’s just a national pride thing).

They are getting the politics of this all wrong.
Why do people think England flags have been raised on lampposts?

White adults
National pride: 26%
Anti-migrant/minority sentiment: 49%
Both: 19%

Ethnic minority adults
National pride: 15%
Anti-migrant/minority sentiment: 55%
Both: 20%

Amazing that Norris lost 0.7 coming out the final corner but was still on pole by a mile. He was scrappy all session but massively fast
