Toto Wolff admits that some of George Russell's deficit to Mercedes team mate Kimi Antonelli in Qualifying for the Belgian Grand Prix is "not his fault".
Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton believe they can challenge for podium finishes in the Belgian Grand Prix, with the Ferrari duo set to start from P4 and P5.
Bryson DeChambeau plays to the gallery whether or not they think he is villain or victim | Andy Bull
Even if he does not lift the Claret Jug at Royal Birkdale, the American will still be the player everyone is talking about
Whip, crack, whoosh, Bryson DeChambeau’s opening shot flies into the distance, pitches, skips, and tumbles into the rough left of the fairway. By the time DeChambeau has reached the ball a big crowd has gathered around it, they’re standing on tiptoes, perched on mounds, tilting sideways to peer around the people in front, who are pressed right up against the ropes and even spilling underneath them and on to the playing area where the marshals, hands out, are trying to usher them back.
“Careful Bryson!” someone shouts out as he wades into the rough and, it never takes much, everyone breaks out laughing. Looking around, you notice how many people are watching all this through their phones. I start counting: one, five, 10, 20, 50 – people don’t just want to see DeChambeau play golf, they want to be able to show everyone they know that they’ve done it. Did you even go to the Open if you didn’t get to see him?

BOEDAPEST (ANP/RTR) - De Hongaarse president Tamas Sulyok heeft naar eigen zeggen een grondwetswijziging getekend die zijn vertrek betekent. De regering van premier Peter Magyar had de wetswijziging voorgesteld, omdat zijn Tisza-partij van de president af wil.
De president is een bondgenoot van de conservatieve ex-premier Viktor Orbán van de partij Fidesz die eerder dit jaar de verkiezingen verloor.
De als christelijk-nationalistisch, eurosceptisch en populistisch bekende Orbán domineerde de Hongaarse politiek decennialang. Hij was dankzij grote verkiezingsoverwinningen premier van 1998 tot 2002 en van 2010 tot eerder dit jaar. Sulyok was lid van Fidesz en werd door die partij in 2024 naar voren geschoven als staatshoofd. Magyar noemt hem een marionet van de vorige regering van Orbán.
De Hongaarse president had niet veel keus. Zonder zijn handtekening zou hij waarschijnlijk door de Tisza-meerderheid in het parlement zijn afgezet.
