Horner: ‘No tension’ with Verstappen but no one bigger than team

Christian Horner stated he would not stand in the way of Max Verstappen leaving Red Bull if he prefers to do so, but he remains confident the reigning champion will stay at the team beyond the end of this year. Despite winning the opening two rounds of the season, divisions and controversy within Red Bull have led to suggestions that Verstappen, who has a contract with Red Bull until 2028, could leave the team at the end of the year. A rift appeared within Red Bull last week after the team’s parent company, Red Bull GmbH, cleared Horner of allegations of inappropriate […]

Al Nassr, Ronaldo out of ACL after shootout loss to Al-Ain

Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr crashed out of the Asian Champions League in the quarterfinals after the Saudi Pro League side lost 3-1 on penalties to Al-Ain in a pulsating game on Monday. Al Nassr overturned a 1-0 first leg deficit to win 4-3 on Monday but with the contest ending 4-4 on aggregate, the players headed into a shootout from which Al-Ain prevailed. Foreign imports Miroslav Brozovic, Alex Telles and Otavio all failed to score from the spot for Al Nassr as the side from the United Arab Emirates advanced to the semifinals, where they will face either Al Hilal or Al Ittihad — both from Saudi Arabia — next month. Al-Ain goalkeeper Khalid Eisa made […]

Novak Djokovic, Coco Gauff advance in Indian Wells

Novak Djokovic made a winning return to the desert, defeating Aleksandar Vukic 6-2, 5-7, 6-3 on Saturday in his first match at the BNP Paribas Open in five years. The 24-time Grand Slam singles champion joined Rafael Nadal as the only players to win 400 matches in ATP Masters 1000 series events. The top-ranked Djokovic is a five-time champion at Indian Wells, tied with Roger Federer for most by a male, but hadn’t played in the event since 2019. “Five years is quite a long time for a professional tennis player, but at the same time playing here the last time in 2019 felt […]

Joshua takes out Ngannou with crushing KO finish in Round 2

Anthony Joshua scored a spectacular knockout of Francis Ngannou in Round 2 of their heavyweight fight Friday night in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, a right hand that landed clean on the former UFC heavyweight champion’s chin and rendered him unconscious. After Ngannou regained his senses, ringside officials administered oxygen to the 37-year-old, who was boxing for just the second time. England’s Joshua, 34, scored a knockdown in the opening round with a right hand, and Ngannou appeared to be unsteady after he beat the count. Joshua produced another knockdown in Round 2, an equilibrium shot that connected on Ngannou’s left ear. […]

Verstappen wins again, skirting questions of Red Bull future

After comfortably winning the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix on Saturday, Max Verstappen and Red Bull are cruising toward another championship season. Both, however, are refusing to be the first to blink in the deepening mystery regarding the three-time Formula One world champion’s future beyond 2024. The sort of victory witnessed at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit on Saturday night is what we’ve come to expect from this dominant Red Bull outfit. Verstappen led from pole, only briefly dropping to second after an early Safety Car, and was so far out in front that he was turning down his engine setting late on. It was utterly […]

Aston Martin’s Alonso top in Saudi GP practice

Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso was fastest in Thursday’s floodlit second practice for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix after Red Bull’s reigning champion Max Verstappen set the afternoon pace in FP1.
