Spa sessions show Charlie has the Hart for racetrack
Rising Rivington motor racing star Charlie Hart continued to show his talent with his best showing of the 2025 GT4 European Series season so far, almost taking a stunning pole position but also scoring two fifth-place finishes at the CrowdStrike 24 Hours of Spa week. The 16-year-old arrived in Belgium with his RAFA Racing by Race Lab team fresh off the back of a fighting display at Zandvoort, where he and co-driver Callum Davies both charged forward through the pack in their McLaren Artura GT4. The third of the six GT4 European Series events was the biggest one yet for the teenager, as the series supported the infamous Spa 24 Hours race at the historic Formula One circuit located within the Ardennes. Hart was among a massive field of cars competing for glory, held over two 60-minute races in front of massive crowds of 128,000 fans. A highlight of the event was the highly-regarded 'Spa Parade' which saw almost 200 GT3 and GT4 cars descend on the local town in the build-up to the race weekend itself. It was a hit with the fans, who gathered to take photos with the drivers and scoop up their very own limited edition signed posters of the pair. The Lancashire rookie then instantly showed his speed throughout the week's action on track. Hart went fastest of anyone during practice by a comfortable margin to lay his marker in the sand, backing it up with a close third in pre-qualifying. Conditions turned for the worst in qualifying as the rain arrived for Hart's 20-minute session. He tamed the spray and treacherous weather in style however, finishing second and only narrowly 0.086secs away from his first pole position in the series. The car would also start third for race two. Come the opening race of the week, Hart was given the task of starting the RAFA McLaren. On the outside line, he was edged down to fourth but still right in the fight for the lead throughout his stint. Two safety-car periods were frustrating, however, for Hart, who wanted to get back to racing against his rivals ahead sooner rather than later. He handed over to Davies in fourth, whereafter the car came home for a season-best fifth-placed finish. Hoping to better that again the following day, Hart was given the second stint on this occasion. They almost climbed up to P2 on the road after a strong start, but the race was soon neutralised after a heavy crash for several cars behind them in the pack. The clean-up operation meant only 30 minutes of racing could be achieved to fit the schedule, Hart jumping in the car while the number 812 sat third. He instantly went into battle with the BMW of Ricardo Van Der Ende, almost managing to pass the Dutchman around the outside at Les Combes, but being forced to take to the run-off area and slot in behind. He continued the chase all race, delayed in the battle as pit-stops cycled through. Finishing narrowly behind the podium finishers, the Silver-rated driver came home a similarly impressive fifth to match the race one result, again adding crucial points to move the crew up to ninth in the competitive Silver class standings with three meetings to go. Hart said: 'It was a really good weekend for us at Spa. We were definitely I'd say one of the quickest out there, and we were on it from the word go. 'I managed to top a session in practice, and then thought we had a good chance in qualifying, even in the conditions we had to deal with. 'I would have loved to have been on that pole position! But it was still a great result, and I'm sure that we'll have more chances to get that in the future. 'We were careful at the start as it's always going to be a bit messy with so many cars going into La Source and then Eau Rouge, but I would really have liked more green flag running in the car to try and make a difference in that first stint. 'We both did a solid job, and we can't complain too much with two good finishes. We're closing in on those podiums and wins now.'

Jalen Brunson reveals what roommate and fellow Knick Josh Hart's ‘Real Housewives' tagline would be
Jalen Brunson and fellow New York Knicks star Josh Hart are keeping it real – off the court. The New York Knicks superstars, Villanova alums and former roommates, have electrified the Big Apple, leading the Knickerbockers to the Eastern Conference Finals in June, the first time since 2000, and now they're game to talk reality TV. In their offseason podcast 'Roommates Show,' Brunson and Hart channel their inner 'Real Housewives' and get into a heated discussion on reality TV show 'Love Island.'

In the last episode of their podcast, Hart, Brunson and their college roommate and co-host Matt Hillman unpacked their affinity for the reality competition (Spoiler alert: Hart is not a super fan). 'I'm kinda watching it and I'm also on my phone,' he said on the last podcast episode Thursday, confessing 'I'm not really a fan of anyone in particular. I rocked with Taylor [Chmelka]. Then America kicked him off because there was haters.' 'I don't watch reality shows,' Hart admitted to The Post (Brunson called him out as a 'weirdo' for it). 8 Brunson, who grew up in New Brunswick, New Jersey, told The Post 'The Jersey Shore,' is still the GOAT [greatest of all time] in his book.

Ex-Flyers Goalie Carter Hart Acquitted in Hockey Canada Trial
Former Philadelphia Flyers goalie Carter Hart has been found not guilty of sexual assault after being acquitted by Justice Maria Carroccia on Thursday afternoon. Hart, 26, was charged by London police with sexual assault in Jan. 2024, alongside Michael McLeod, Dillon Dube, Alex Formenton, and Cal Foote, in relation to the 2018 Hockey Canada incident. All five players were acquitted of their respective charges after verdicts were read in London, Ontario, Thursday. 'Having found that I cannot rely upon the evidence of E.M. and then considering the evidence in this trial as a whole, I conclude that the Crown cannot meet its onus on any of the counts before me,' Carroccia explained prior to reading the verdicts. The trial involving Hart and the other four players began in April, with closing statements for the case made in June. On Jan. 30, 2024, Hart's legal representation, Savards LLP, confirmed Hart was charged with one count of sexual assault, stating, "he is innocent and will provide a full response to this false allegation in the proper forum, a court of law. Until then, we have no comment.' One week earlier, On Jan. 23, Hart requested and was granted an indefinite leave of absence by the Flyers. In June 2024, ahead of free agency, the Flyers announced that Hart would not receive a qualifying offer, relinquishing his signing rights and parting ways with their former second-round pick. Hart is currently an unrestricted free agent and has not played professional hockey since his last game with the Flyers on Jan. 20, 2024.
