During qualifying for both races over the British Grand Prix weekend, one curious detail caught the eye: both Mercedes drivers completely lifted off the accelerator just a few metres before crossing the finish line.

Paradoxical as it may seem, there ...

It must not be easy to be a top athlete these days. Perhaps not so much when you're winning - because praise comes from all angles, and it's great to feel loved and appreciated. But winning isn't easy when you're competing against other top athletes - and more often than not you'll get everything but praise and appreciation.
It probably hasn't been easy to be Charles Leclerc lately, with the ...

No more excuses for George Russell
