Forty-five minutes to the off. How has Antonelli built that lead? Well, as our graph shows, he burst out of the traps, overtaking George Russell with his second consecutive victory in Japan in race three and only briefly looking as if he could be hauled back. Russell won in Austria, with Antonelli third, then second at Silverstone, with the Italian out of the points. But the 20-year-old was soon back in command.
Newsflash: Kimi Antonelli is going to win the world drivers’ championship. Oddsflash: he is unlikely to do so this weekend.

Dortmund top Bundesliga after Eintracht Frankfurt win
Roma missed the chance to move top of Serie A, but preserved their unbeaten status as Leonardo Balerdi’s 89th-minute goal snatched a thrilling 3-3 draw at Napoli.

The Art of Disney Fairies tumblr is an unofficial artbook of the Disney Fairies franchise, a uniquely detailed look at all the visual work needed for 3D animation. (And books, toys, games, etc.) Posts are categorized by specific movies (1 2 3 4 5 6), or you may also enjoying focusing on e.g. storyboards or color keys.
More unusual tags include Tinker Academy, the cancelled seventh movie; Quest for the Queen, which was retooled into The Pirate Fairy, and Ring of Belief, a catch-all name for several earlier drafts of the first movie that had completely different plots. This movie was briefly planned to use traditional 2D animation, and later drafts featured such oddities as a Pixie Chicks concert. The franchise ended in 2014 after launching in 2005 with three books by Gail Carson Levine, author of Ella Enchanted, set after Peter Pan and detailing Tinker Bell learning to trust again after Peter left her. The movies and related materials, by contrast, told Tinker Bell's origins before meeting Peter. The Levine-era fairies dressed in more earth tones with more complicated designs, but the movies focused on single colors and simpler dresses, easier for animation and dolls. After a decade of near-silence, recent developments like two new fairy YA romance novels, new Disney Fairies merchandise appearing, and rumors of a new TV show (inaccurately often paired with an old Tinker Academy render) have fans all aflutter. And if you miss Pixie Hollow, the browser-based MMO, fans are bringing that back themselves.

DEN HAAG (ANP) - Het minderheidskabinet gaat opnieuw praten met de oppositie om een "brede meerderheid" te vinden voor het belastingplan. Dat meldt Financiën. Zaterdag overlegden de premier, vicepremiers en bewindslieden van Financiën op het Catshuis over een nieuw voorstel.
Het waren "goede gesprekken", aldus een bron. Er zijn volgens een andere ingewijde nog wat open vragen, maar er zou goeddeels overeenstemming zijn. Het kabinet gaat de komende dagen opnieuw onderhandelen met JA21 en SGP, PRO en Volt, ChristenUnie, 50PLUS en BBB, aldus Financiën.
Minister Eelco Heinen (Financiën, VVD) en staatssecretaris Eelco Eerenberg (Financiën, D66) presenteerden aan premier Rob Jetten (D66) en vicepremiers Bart van den Brink (CDA) en Dilan Yeşilgöz (VVD) een nieuw voorstel voor de vermogenswinstbelasting box 3. Er moest een alternatief komen omdat de oppositie het plan om kleine spaarders en vermogenden sneller te belasten had afgeschoten.
