However, as a result of the safety car incident, following Romain Grosjean’s retirement, Vettel took the lead and Hamilton fell to 2nd place while Raikkonen slipped to 3rd. This incident allowed some drivers like Alonso and Ricciardo to take advantage and finish higher in the grid. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the five things that we learned from the first Grand Prix of the 2018-19 season:...
The four-time world champion lost the championship lead after failing to finish at Spielburg following a strategy mistake. But Hamilton said Thursday that “the spirit within the team is stronger than it’s ever been and these experiences that we’ve been having - how we’ve been handling them - have really united us more than any other thing. There’s a great energy about the team.” Mercedes endured its worst result since 2016 when Hamilton’s teammate Valtteri Bottas also failed to finish in the Austrian GP....
#10 Williams Sergey Sirotkin – 16th Williams can’t wait for 2018 to end. To his credit, Sirotkin did make it into Q2, an impressive feat in his lacklustre car. The Williamses, though, were found out during the race and spent the whole Grand Prix as backmarkers, finishing last and third to last. Sirotkin did finish ahead of Fernando Alonso, though, and this will give the Russian a better rating, but won’t save him from a poor one....
Russell, who moved to Mercedes after three seasons with Williams, is also the president of the Grand Prix Drivers’ Association (GPDA). While speaking about the steps taken by the FIA before the start of the 2022 season, he said: The 24-year-old went on to add: Lewis Hamilton happy to see more diversity at Mercedes Lewis Hamilton was very pleased to see a diverse group of young drivers in the Silver Arrows’ junior line-up for 2022....
Chelsea faced a number of obstacles in the loss. For starters, Cesar Azpilicueta left the game with an injury in the first half. As the second half started, Christian Pulisic suffered an apparent hamstring injury, ending his day. Later in the second half, Mateo Kovacic picked up a second yellow card, leaving Chelsea down a man as play resumed down the stretch. On Arsenal’s side, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang shined by scoring twice in the empty Wembley Stadium....
A spokesperson for the streaming platform told Newsweek on Wednesday that neither Netflix nor any of the show’s hosts were involved in the retail chain’s staffing choices. The spokesperson also noted that one employee featured in filming was not white. “Queer Eye’s hosts, producers and crew had no knowledge or influence on Old Navy staffing choices while filming in a Philadelphia-based store this past week,” the statement said. “While filming, production featured one female employee, an African American manager, who completed an on-camera styling consultation and also served as a point of contact for our crew....
If that’s the way Fable intends to present itself, it would benefit from using the kinds of stories that gave Fable its name. Although the franchise has a history of making references to fairy tales and folklore from Great Britain and the rest of Europe, Fable 4 should emphasize its return to medieval times with a greater emphasis on fairy tales. Fable 4 might already be distinct thanks to its cheery attitude, but it can go farther to stand out from Avowed and The Elder Scrolls by retelling all kinds of British fairy tales....
Both pieces of hardware are still in development, but its been long enough for both that people have to start wondering when these devices will come out. In the case of Oculus’ technology, the dev kits have been available for quite some time, but when it comes to a public release - one that would allow the average consumer to get in on the VR experience - details on release dates have ranged from scarce to speculative....
But the writing was on the wall after it became apparent that Raikkonen’s age may have been catching up to him, and there was no way the Italian giants were going to lose out on an opportunity to win the title by letting go of Sebastian Vettel. So, as things stand, Kimi is out of Ferrari, but has found asylum in Sauber, where he makes a glorious return after 17 years....

The two-time defending Formula One world champion did emerge victorious at this race in 2018, but only after Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas suffered a puncture in the closing stages. In his previous two visits to the Baku City Circuit, Hamilton could only manage fifth, and the standings leader – winner of the last two meetings in Bahrain and China – knows he can ill-afford another poor outing on Sunday with Bottas just six points adrift....

Lando Norris was clearly at odds with the statement primarily aimed at him, George Russel and Alex Albon. “I don’t know why he would say it now, and not when he first started. It must be targeted at me, George and Alex because we’re the youngest in F1 and I’m not suffering perhaps as much as he thinks I should,” he said. Norris further added, “I don’t think it’s intimidation, I just don’t know why he wouldn’t say it any other year....
He damaged his car in Q2 in Barcelona as well which compromised his run in Q3.

One area where Charles feels he has learned is not pushing too hard in the second and first stages of qualifying if it compromises his Q3 as has been the case....
Christian Horner’s side have done well to overcome their initial reliability woes and have made giant strides in both their championship battles this season. Red Bull have won nine out of the opening 13 races in 2022 with Max Verstappen getting eight of those wins. The reigning world champion has also been on the podium in every race he has completed, barring this year’s race at Silverstone. The Dutchman has also been able to capitalize on Ferrari’s mistakes and misfortunes to build up a 80-point lead over Charles Leclerc in the World Drivers’ Championship standings....

Fable 4 will likely be hoping to take the series back to its roots, recapturing the essence of the first game but telling a new story. To truly get to the heart of the Fable franchise, however Playground Games needs to understand its inspirations. One key inspiration for the first game was Tim Burton’s 1999 movie adaptation of Sleepy Hollow. There are some good reasons the development studio should look back to that film if its hoping to tell a new story that still feels like Fable....
The IP may have moved out of Lionhead Studios’ hands after Fable’s original developer closed down, and Playground Games may have its hands full with the upcoming installment, but that doesn’t mean a remastered collection of the first three games is out of reach. Another studio could take the reins, and timing it to fit in around the next Fable’s release would help to bring not only the newest entry to a fresh batch of gamers but also the much beloved older titles....
