'F1: The Movie' trailer: Brad Pitt drives fast in Formula 1 film
Brad Pitt plays a veteran driver recruited for a Formula 1 race team and Damson Idris is the hotshot racer in "F1: The Movie."
Formula 1 has a new winner for 2025.
Last weekend's Canadian Grand Prix saw a non-McLaren driver take victory for just the third time in the first 10 races. Mercedes' George Russell earned pole position and his first win of the season in the best weekend of the season for the team. His teammate, Andrea Kimi Antonelli, came home third to give Mercedes its first double-podium of the year.
Four-time defending champion Max Verstappen kept close to Russell but couldn't challenge him for the win.
The McLarens couldn't match Russell and Verstappen's pace on race day. Instead, they collided with each other late enough to force the race to finish under safety car conditions. Lando Norris tried to pass Oscar Piastri for fourth on the start/finish straight but instead hit Piastri's left rear tire and went into the wall. Norris immediately took responsibility for the incident on team radio in the first clash between this year's top two title contenders.
That finish meant Piastri widened his lead atop the drivers' championship standings to 22 points, nearly a full race win's points haul, over this teammate. Norris still holds a 21-point gap to Verstappen even with his crash and Verstappen's second-place finish.

That was a thrilling end to an exciting race as usual in Canada. Will F1 be back on track this weekend? Here's what to know:
Is there a Formula 1 race this weekend?
No, the teams get a week off following the Canadian Grand Prix. It was one of the "fly-away" races of the schedule so the grid gets a week off before and after.
The F1 grid returns to Europe in the next race of the season in the Austrian Grand Prix. It's the first of a double-header from June into July.
When is the next F1 race?
The next F1 race will be the Austrian Grand Prix on Sunday, June 29.
In 2024, that race saw the first of many clashes between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris. The two collided when fighting for the lead late in the race, handing the victory to Mercedes' George Russell.

'Can't believe it': Fans in awe of triple Aussie stunner on global stage
Oscar Piastri and the country's men's and women's 4x100m swimming relay teams have produced a stunning night for Australia on the global stage. And it could get even better, with Alex de Minaur in the final of the Citi Open in Washington. Piastri was triumphant in a rain-soaked Belgian Grand Prix, while Australia won gold in both relays at the swimming world championships. Piastri extended his lead in the F1 world championship to 16 points after overtaking pole-sitter and teammate Lando Norris to win. The race eventually started after four laps behind the safety car following a delay of nearly an hour and a half due to rain and poor visibility at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit. After an initial formation lap behind the safety car, a red flag was shown, and the cars were brought back into the pit lane and the starting procedure halted. Once the race began, the decisive moment came just seconds after the start. Piastri charged through the spray and straight past his teammate Norris, using his slip-stream through the daunting Eau Rouge. Piastri was then largely untroubled for the rest of the race as he powered on to finish 3.415 seconds clear of his arch-rival. "I knew Lap 1 (after the safety car) would probably be my best chance of winning the race," the Aussie said after his sixth win of the season and eighth of his career. "I got a good exit out of Turn 1, lifted as little as I dared and yeah, we had it mostly under control." It was McLaren's sixth 1-2 finish of the season, and third in a row. Charles Leclerc was a distant third for Ferrari, while Max Verstappen was fourth in his first full race under a new Red Bull chief following the departure of Christian Horner. Aussies win double relay gold at swimming world championships While Piastri's win wasn't a total shock, the performance of Australia's two 4x100m relay teams were. The Aussies ended the opening night of the swimming world championships with double gold after the country's men and women both prevailed in the 4x100m freestyle events. Olivia Wunsch produced a stunning late comeback to fire Australia to an upset victory over the vaunted US in the women's event. And then it was Kyle Chalmers who reeled in a sizeable lead from the Americans in the men's event. Chalmers produced a stunning anchor swim as the Aussie quartet including Flynn Southam, Kai Taylor and Maximillian Giuliani posting a world championship-record time of 3:08.97 to defeat Italy (3:09.58) and the fading US (3:09.64). "I've kind of lost my voice already from cheering so hard," Southam said. "I'm just so happy to be here, and we all swam out of our skin, and we did it for the country, and we're so proud of ourselves." Ian Thorpe blown away by Aussie women's victory The Aussies were complete underdogs in the women's race with a new-look team of Mollie O'Callaghan, Meg Harris, Milla Jansen and Wunsch. The US were the hot favourites to win, but even without the retired Emma McKeon, the Australians produced something special. Torri Huske had the lead for the US with 50m remaining, before Wunsch came storming home to snatch victory. Australia finished in a time of 3:30.60, with the US (3:31.04) in second. "I definitely can't believe it," Jansen told Channel 9. "This is something that I wanted growing up. I was feeling very nervous coming into this, but it's just a dream come true." Ian Thorpe said in commentary: "It is really difficult to be able to find someone to match our most successful Olympian we've ever seen - Emma McKeon. She's not there. Cate Campbell's not there. Bronte Campbell's not there. "But what we do have in Australia is the consistency in this race, that it's tough to make this team. And what I'm most impressed with is ... how they could lift for the entire team in this race. Amazing stuff." HOW DID AUSTRALIA WIN BOTH RELAYS!?

Delayed start at Belgian Grand Prix highlights Formula 1's challenge with racing in the rain
Of all the thousands of pieces of equipment that Formula 1 hauls around the world, few are used less often than the full wet tire. They stayed piled up in stacks, not on the cars, on Sunday as drivers sat out a rain delay of more than an hour to the start of the Belgian Grand Prix. It wasn't because F1 cars lack grip in heavy rain. Manufacturer Pirelli says the full wet tires can cope with that. The problem is that drivers behind can't see through the spray, and the first attempt to start Sunday's race on time illustrated the problem. Even crawling around at formation lap pace with only Lando Norris and the safety car ahead, eventual winner Oscar Piastri said he 'couldn't see a thing,' adding, 'you can only imagine what it's like for the guys at the back.' When the race started, it was behind the safety car at low speed before the all-clear to go racing. Like all of the drivers, Piastri was using the intermediate tires, which are recommended for light rain or a drying track, when he eventually passed Norris for the win. 'The past few years, particularly here, we've given the (governing body) FIA feedback that we would much rather be on the safe side than risk anything,' Piastri said. 'If you were to be picky, maybe we could have done one less formation lap (behind the safety car), but in the grand scheme of things, if that's one lap too early, is it worth it? No.' Visibility is a particular concern at Spa, a fast track with a history of serious accidents. They include Anthoine Hubert's death in a Formula 2 crash in dry conditions in 2019 and another fatal accident claiming the life of Dutch teenage driver Dilano van 't Hoff in a junior series in the rain in 2023. 'I have to say that on a track like this, with what happened historically, I think you cannot forget about it. For that reason I would rather be safe than (start) too early," said Charles Leclerc, who finished third Sunday and who was friends with Hubert since childhood. Under the current F1 design regulations in place since 2022, cars have ground-effect aerodynamics which use the floor to generate grip but can also throw up more spray. If there's enough rain for the full wet tires to be faster than the intermediates, it's likely the race will be stopped because of poor visibility anyway. There was a reminder of the importance of visibility this month at the British Grand Prix when Isack Hadjar collided with Kimi Antonelli's car from behind while driving in the Italian's trail of spray. 'I didn't see him,' Hadjar said. 'He just appeared out of nowhere, man. Oh my God.' ___ AP auto racing:
