Rowland had needed to lead Pascal Wehrlein by 59 points after the second of two races in Berlin, the championship's penultimate weekend, and he did it by finishing fourth with his Porsche rival only 16th despite starting on pole. The Briton now has 184 points with Wehrlein on 125. Sunday's race at Berlin's old Tempelhof airport was won by Jaguar's Nick Cassidy, completing a weekend sweep after teammate Mitch Evans won on Saturday, with Andretti's Jake Dennis second and Jean-Eric Vergne third for DS Penske. The final two races of the season are in London on July 26-27. It was the first time a Japanese manufacturer had won the championship.

Mets announce roster cuts, bullpen comes into focus
Reinhold Matay-Imagn Images As we get closer to the 2025 MLB season beginning, the 26-man roster will slowly but surely come into focus. Today, the Mets made a slew of moves—both involving those who will be cut, and those who made the roster. Advertisement Beginning with the cuts, utility infielder Donovan Walton and catcher Jakson Reetz were both informed they would not make the roster, which opens the door for Hayden Senger to make it as the backup catcher, and Luisangel Acuña to make it as a utility infielder — though, of course, the Mets could add an outside option as more and more players get cut across the league. On the pitching side, Chris Devenski. Génesis Cabrera, and Jose Urena did not make the club, the latter having an opt out but deciding to stay with the organization rather than test the waters in free agency. On the flip side, Reed Garrett, José Buttó, and Danny Young made the team — two of which do not come as a surprise. Garrett was one of the mainstays of the 2025 bullpen, and barring an absolutely disastrous spring he would be a lock to get high leverage innings right out of the gate for the Mets. Buttó was also largely assumed to make the team, as he is one of the better multi-inning relievers on the roster, and should be more suited for the role in 2025 as he came into the year exclusively as a reliever, after being a long time Minor League starter in the organization. Young is a more interesting case, as it may mean one of A.J. Minter or Dedniel Núñez may not be ready by the time March 27 rolls around. Both Minter and Núñez battled injuries to end the 2024 season, with the former battling a left hip injury from May of last year, eventually getting season-ending surgery on it in August, and the latter suffering through a flexor strain in his throwing elbow that shortened what looked like a breakout year for the righty. Both relievers had late starts to their spring due to these injuries so it is not terribly surprising that they may not be ready for Opening Day, but it is still worth noting.
