Red Bull says it has “pushed the boundaries” with the design of its new Formula One car, the RB20, as it prepares to defend its position as the dominant force in Formula One for a third year running. The reigning champions revealed their new car on Thursday, six days ahead of pre-season testing, although much of the focus at the launch event was diverted by an ongoing internal investigation into team principal Christian Horner. Red Bull design chief Adrian Newey insisted the new car is an evolution of last year’s RB19, but a number of visual design variations — including a […]

Carlos Sainz will take his time to decide where he spends “the most important three or four years” of his Formula One career, having found out Ferrari will replace him with Lewis Hamilton in 2025. Ferrari revealed the blockbuster Hamilton signing at the start of February, shortly after signing Sainz’s teammate Charles Leclerc to a new contract. Sainz had gone into the off-season hoping to secure a similar deal, but now has to look elsewhere. The Spaniard is a candidate to substitute Hamilton at Mercedes, although he is seen as a front-runner to join the Sauber team in 2025, which would see […]

Shohei Ohtani says he feels like a rookie again with Dodgers

Roughly 70 media members formed a half-circle around a small backdrop at the Los Angeles Dodgers’ facility late Friday morning, waiting for Shohei Ohtani to conduct his first media session. About a dozen of them had shown up hours earlier, before the sun had fully risen, just to catch a glimpse of him driving into the players’ parking lot. Ohtani’s gravitas has been glaringly obvious through the first two days of spring training, but he’s merely trying to conduct himself as the new guy. After six years with the crosstown rival Los Angeles Angels, he sees himself as a “rookie” all over again. “I […]

Bayer Leverkusen reached 30 matches unbeaten in all competitions this season with a 3-2 comeback victory over VfB Stuttgart to reach the DFB Pokal semifinals Tuesday. Jonathan Tah’s 90th-minute header won the game and spared Xabi Alonso’s team of having to play extra time ahead of a league game Saturday versus title rivals Bayern Munich. Tah was left completely unmarked to head in from close range and complete the comeback for the Bundesliga leaders after they had twice cancelled out Stuttgart goals. Leverkusen are the first team in Europe’s top five leagues to reach 30 games undefeated in all competitions from the start of the season since Juventus […]

Josh Hader, Astros agree to record five-year $95M deal

All-Star closer Josh Hader agreed to terms on a five-year, $95 million contract with the Houston Astros on Friday, significantly bolstering a team that has made seven successive appearances in the American League Championship Series, a source told ESPN’s Jeff Passan. The deal doesn’t include any deferrals, making it the largest ever for a relief pitcher in terms of present-day value. Edwin Diaz signed a five-year, $102 million deal with the New York Mets last offseason, but $26.5 million of it was deferred, giving it a present-day value in the neighborhood of $93 million. The Astros’ pickup of Hader comes on the heels of news that Kendall Graveman, one […]
