Max Verstappen isn't surprised the FIA stewards made an example of him over his Mexico practice clash with Liam Lawson: "It's happened more often in the past." He has his own view on the grid drop, but he's keeping it behind closed doors. #MexicoGP gpblog.com/en/news/max-verst…

Yamaha's Qatar MotoGP exit doesn't mean F1's Lusail race is off, but it shows assurances aren't the same as acceptance. With a European finale already a fallback, the last two rounds are back in focus. #F1 gpblog.com/en/analysis/yamah…

Lando Norris won't have McLaren's season called a failure. "We knew we were going to pay the price." He says chasing last year's titles to the end cost them a head start on the new regulations. #F1 gpblog.com/en/news/lando-nor…

Lewis Hamilton says Kimi Antonelli deserves to be world champion, and that it proves he was right to tell Mercedes to put the Italian in his seat. Yet Hamilton is still one of only two drivers who can catch him in Mexico. #F1 gpblog.com/en/news/title-riv…

Have Red Bull gone too early in signing Laurent Mekies to a new deal? A few weeks ago, drivers were blasting the car. Or is he the right man for the job? gpblog.com/column/why-lauren…

F1 has announced a 10-year deal for a race in Rwanda, only not actually said when that race will happen. Sometime in early 2030s? I’m not sure if any F1 event - or sporting event - has had such a high-profile announcement unaccompanied with an actual date.

It’s been a difficult few months for F1. Some turgid races, inability to run in the rain, ‘human errors’ when it comes to officiating. No official update on the end of the season yet. Title race evaporated. I wonder how much more until the share prices are impacted?
