Oscar Piastri says he'll fuel his F1 title charge with 'frustration' at race-deciding penalty
Piastri was reluctant to join in the celebrations for McLaren's fourth one-two finish of 2025 after a 10-second penalty imposed for sharp braking behind the safety car meant he finished behind teammate and title rival Lando Norris in Sunday's race. He leads Norris by eight points at the halfway point of the season.

Legal challenge over Wimbledon expansion set to be heard at High Court
A campaign group's legal challenge against plans to almost triple the size of the Wimbledon tennis site is set to be heard at the High Court on Tuesday. Save Wimbledon Park (SWP) is challenging the decision by the Greater London Authority (GLA) to give the green light to the All England Club's proposal to build 39 new courts, including an 8,000-seat stadium, on the former Wimbledon Park Golf Club. Planning permission for the scheme was granted last year by Jules Pipe, London's deputy mayor for planning, who said that the proposals 'would facilitate very significant benefits' which 'clearly outweigh the harm'. Debbie Jevans, chair of the All England Club, said at the time that the proposals would deliver 27 acres of 'newly accessible parkland for the community', and would allow the qualifying tournament for Wimbledon – currently staged at Roehampton – to be held on-site. But campaigners say that Wimbledon Park, a Grade II*-listed heritage site, is subject to similar protections as the green belt or royal parks and that allowing development on the site would set a 'dangerous precedent'. SWP's lawyers are set to argue that the GLA's decision failed to take into account the implications of 'restrictive covenants' on the use of the land, and that the development would cause 'deliberate damage'. The GLA is defending the legal challenge at a two-day hearing before Mr Justice Saini, which is due to begin at 10.30am at the Royal Courts of Justice in London. The plans were first submitted to both Merton and Wandsworth Councils, with the park straddling the boroughs, in 2021, three years after the All England Club bought out golf club members with the intention of developing the land. After Merton Council approved the plans, but Wandsworth Council rejected them, the Mayor of London's office took charge of the application. Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan then recused himself from the process in 2023, having previously expressed public support for the development. The plans attracted opposition from Fleur Anderson, the Labour MP for Putney, and Richard Rees, who was previously the lead planner for the building of Wimbledon's Court One and the development of 'Henman Hill'. Ahead of Tuesday's hearing, Christopher Coombe, a director of SWP, said: 'If this decision by the GLA is upheld and the development goes ahead, the detrimental impacts on our environment and delicate ecosystem will be devastating. 'Our community has given massive support to the campaign over four years, desperate to stop the loss of open space intended for public recreation. 'This is not just in SW19; it's happening all over London. Once built, it is gone forever, and there is very little local trust in an organisation that prides itself on fair play, but then breaks its word. 'We all love the Wimbledon championships, but don't believe the proposal is really about protecting the future of the world's best tennis tournament. 'We will continue to press (the All England Club) to reconsider their fighting stance towards our community and to join us in finding a resolution that we can all get behind.' A spokesperson for the All England Club said: 'Our proposals will deliver one of the greatest sporting transformations for London since 2012. 'They are crucial to ensuring Wimbledon remains at the pinnacle of tennis, one of the world's best sporting events, and a global attraction for both London and the UK. 'On offer are substantial year-round benefits for our community and the delivery of significant social, economic, and environmental improvements. 'This includes more than 27 acres of new public parkland on what is currently inaccessible, private land. 'Our plans will increase the size of Wimbledon Park by a third and create spaces for people and nature to thrive. 'There will be a very significant increase in biodiversity across the site and our proposals are underpinned by more than 1,000 hours of ecological surveys, which are endorsed by the London Wildlife Trust. 'We have spoken to more than 10,000 people as part of our consultation events, and we know that the vast majority of people just want us to get on and deliver the many benefits on offer.' A GLA spokesperson said: 'The Mayor believes this scheme will bring a significant range of benefits, including environmental, economic, social and cultural benefits to the local area, the wider capital and the UK economy. 'It will create new jobs and green spaces and cement Wimbledon's reputation as the greatest tennis competition in the world. 'An application has been made for the court to determine this matter, and it is therefore inappropriate for the mayor to comment further at this stage.'

Man Utd will ‘sacrifice' player hailed as ‘amazing' by Lewandowski if they can't find a suitor for £64m letdown
Man Utd will 'sacrifice' player hailed as 'amazing' by Lewandowski if they can't find a suitor for £64m letdown Manchester United will reluctantly look to offload Joshua Zirkzee in the event Rasmus Hojlund stays at the club this summer. INEOS chiefs have been seeking a suitor for the Dane in recent weeks in hopes of recuperating a fee from his departure that can subsequently be spent on a replacement. Advertisement Fabrizio Romano revealed that talks had been going on between United and Inter Milan over Hojlund since May. However, the Champions League finalists, who are floundering to reinforce their attack following their calamitous defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, are currently only willing to take the player on loan with an option/obligation to buy included in the terms. Why United are uninterested in current Hojlund proposal United supporters are at a loss with their frontman. (Photo by) This, of course, doesn't pose as a particularly lucrative deal for United, as replenishing the transfer kitty after Matheus Cunha's arrival is essential if they want to welcome more signings between now and the end of summer. Advertisement Alas, if a deal cannot be agreed between Hojlund and any interested side, Zirkzee will reportedly be 'sacrificed' (GiveMeSport) amid recognition from the key decision-makers that a substantial reshuffle is needed in the attacking contingent – especially with Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho all poised to depart. Zirkzee's tenure cut be cut short after only 12 months The Netherlands star made 14 Premier League starts in 24/25. (Photo by) Zirkzee, 24, oversaw a mixed maiden campaign in M16. He got off to a dream start when notching his first goal on his debut on the opening day against Fulham, coming off the bench in the closing stages to seal a crucial win and reeling off to celebrate in front of the Stretford End. Then, when he failed to add to his account for another four months, fans began questioning whether he was the right fit for the team. Advertisement This led to the Dutch international being unfairly jeered off the pitch when he was hooked before the interval in a 2-0 defeat to Newcastle United at the end of December. Credit where it's due, though, he didn't let it get to him, and instead worked on his game by displaying some high-quality performances with his easy-on-the-eye dribbling and link-up play. As such, it's safe to say fans would feel aggrieved to see Zirkzee leave so prematurely, given he joined only a year ago from Bologna and was utilised as more of a rotational option throughout the term. Robert Lewandowski, who played alongside United's No.11 at Bayern Munich, previously said of the striker: 'He (Zirkzee) plays amazing with his back to the goal,' the world-class frontman began. 'He can hold the ball. He can play with one or two touches or bring wingers [into the game]. 'He is also a good finisher in the box. He's big, you know, he's young, but he's big. And I think he can keep the ball very [well].'
