During their performance at the U.K. festival on Saturday, the punk-rap duo drew criticism after leading a crowd in a chant of "Death, death to the IDF (Israel Defense Forces)". In a statement shared on Instagram on Tuesday, the duo insisted that the furore was "a distraction from the story" amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine. "Today, a good many people would have you believe a punk band is the number one threat to world peace. Last week it was a Palestine pressure group, the week before that it was another band."

Max Verstappen Cracks Fatherhood Joke Before Leading British GP From Pole

Max Verstappen Cracks Fatherhood Joke Before Leading British GP From Pole originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Max Verstappen might be a new dad, but if anyone thought fatherhood would take the edge off his relentless dominance, think again. The reigning World Champion was in playful spirits ahead of Sunday's British Grand Prix, laughing off a question about how he's handling life as a father. Advertisement 'Good, well clearly good,' Verstappen smirked. 'I mean it's not slowing me down, so that's good!' Moments late, Verstappen underlined exactly what he meant by blitzing qualifying at Silverstone, grabbing his latest pole position with a stunning lap that left McLaren and Mercedes trailing. It's been a fascinating few months for Verstappen, who welcomes his first child with partner Kelly Piquet. Even as his personal life has taken on new dimensions, Verstappen hasn't skipped a beat on track, shrugging off questions about distractions with his trademark cool.

In fact, some fans argue the 26-year-old looks sharper than ever. Advertisement Silverstone has long been considered Lewis Hamilton's backyard, but this year it's Verstappen who holds the upper hand, eager to get closer to the McLarens leading the Championship Standings. Fatherhood might be the newest chater in Verstappen's life, but on the track, it's business as usual — crushing lap, effortless pace, and a touch of cheeky humor that shows he's perfectly at ease chasing a fifth consecutive title. With unpredictable weather on the horizon, fans can only wonder if Verstappen's pole will convert to yet another masterclass on Sunday or if fatherhood might deliver a new twist.
