Ben Sulayem hits out at British media over FIA coverage

FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem said the British media has treated him unfairly and focused more on selling stories than being honest. He agreed with Adrian Newey that Max Verstappen and Sebastian Vettel were also unjustly treated by the media.

He is confident the FIA has improved under his leadership and is open to a future presidential race.

US GP ticket sales surge as Verstappen-Norris battle intensifies

Max Verstappen hasn’t won any of the last eight races, and Lando Norris is now just 52 points behind him with six races left. Ticket sales for the US Grand Prix in Austin went up after Verstappen stopped winning, said promoter Bobby Epstein. The event will have a sprint race and an Eminem concert, with around 130-150,000 people expected to attend. A college football game between the Texas Longhorns and Georgia Bulldogs is also happening that weekend, which has raised hotel prices.

Daniel Ricciardo’s recent seasons may have been underwhelming, but in his prime, he was exceptional. At his best, Ricciardo was arguably the top driver in Formula 1 for two seasons. Though his later career had only brief flashes of brilliance, his earlier performances will be remembered far more than his final results.

Monza never disappoints!

They say Monza never disappoints, and Carlos Sainz is about to show why. It all began during the Monza race weekend when Sainz signed autographs, spent time with the tifosi, and celebrated his birthday on race day. But what he did to team principal Fred Vasseur will probably be unforgettable.
