Ollie Bearman believes Haas "executed honestly a perfect race" as the Briton claimed another strong points finish in Sunday's Sao Paulo Grand Prix, suggesting sixth "was the best possible result we could have achieved".

Gabriel Bortoleto’s high expectations for his first Formula 1 home event were crushed as he suffered a DNF in both the Sprint and Sao Paulo Grand Prix, leading to him labelling it “one of the toughest weekends of my whole career”.

On Lap 51 of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, with 20 laps to go, Gianpiero Lambiase radioed his driver Max Verstappen: “Something I didn’t think I’d say: you are the race leader.”

Yuki Tsunoda insisted he is not throwing anything away after another tough race weekend at the Brazilian Grand Prix.
While his Red Bull team-mate Max Verstappen put in an incredible drive from a pitlane start to a podium finish in P3, Tsunoda struggled with two penalties and finished 17th.
In addition to his grand prix struggles, the Japanese driver was knocked out in the first round of ...Keep reading

Nicolo Bulega, the World Superbike rider substituting for Marc Marquez aboard the factory Ducati, has revealed the extent to which he had to adjust his riding for the Michelin tyre used in MotoGP.
At the same time, he could be on the right side of that gulf when MotoGP switches to Pirelli rubber for 2027 – if he can land a ride.
Bulega scored a point with 15th place in a cautious but ...Keep reading

Tech3 KTM stand-in rider Pol Espargaro says Franco Morbidelli’s field-scattering move on lap one of the Portuguese Grand Prix was ‘way too aggressive’.
Morbidelli was the biggest loser in the Turn 5 incident, which ended with the VR46 Ducati rider on the floor and out of the race. But that did not stop Espargaro, who was among the riders Morbidelli was seemingly trying to pass, from ...Keep reading

Max Verstappen's progress from a pitlane start to the podium in the Brazil Grand Prix was remarkable, all the more so since Verstappen had been complaining about his car's poor performance all weekend – even on his way to fourth in the sprint race.
Changes to the car the team made in response to those complaints actually made the car slower, resulting in Verstappen being failing to progress ...Keep reading

Aprilia returned to the top in MotoGP at the Portuguese Grand Prix, as Marco Bezzecchi shrugged off his sprint defeat to deliver a dominant victory on Sunday.
Bezzecchi, Alex Marquez and Pedro Acosta were the star performers of the weekend, each leading the charge for their respective (European) manufacturers. Honda and Yamaha weren’t in the fight, but the dynamics within their respective ...Keep reading

When Ferrari, albeit reluctantly, put its weight behind Eddie Irvine in Formula 1's 1999 title hunt, it did so against all convention. Sure, it was a necessity after Michael Schumacher's leg-breaking shunt at the British Grand Prix, but for the first time in his F1 career Irvine was already in the hunt on merit.
Before the 1999 season had begun, Irvine had not won an F1 race. He was firmly ...Keep reading

The list is getting longer and longer. That is, the list of Formula 1 races in which Lewis Hamilton does not stand on the podium with Ferrari.
Should he succeed at some point (which I strongly assume will happen at the latest in 2026), then he will hold a record he never wanted: he will be the Ferrari driver who needed the longest to get a first podium with the team.
Sure, that is still ...Keep reading

It’s been a challenging summer for Kimi Antonelli. For someone who has only just finished school, it’s hardly easy to feature in one of the world’s biggest sporting events, broadcast live across the globe every second Sunday. Moving countries, facing journalists, being recognised on the street – it’s a lot to take in. And all that might have been slightly easier to handle if things on ...Keep reading
