The Ferraris looked fastest in practice for the Hungarian Grand Prix at the weekend, but it was World Champion Lando Norris who took pole in his McLaren. Both Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) and Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) got 3-place grid penalties for separate incidents in qualifying. Off the line, Lando initially got a perfect getaway, but went wide a few corners in and lost the lead to his team mate Oscar Piastri. Both Ferraris also got good starts as did Max Verstappen. These five then swapped positions a bit though different pit strategies, and Lando managed to take back the lead from Oscar. Sadly for Oscar, his gearbox failed on lap 56 (of 70) and he had to retire from second place. At the flag, Lando took his first win of the year followed by Max. Kimi recovered well to take third, and after Lewis managed to pick up a pit lane speeding penalty, he was demoted to fifth behind Charles Leclerc. That's still four different teams in the top four places. You can see the highlights here. Kimi has now extended his lead to 50 points over Lewis, which is two race wins. F1 now takes its annual 4-week break, during which time the factories have to shut for two weeks to give their globe-trotting staff a break. One bit of extra F1 news today: if there's still war in the Middle East at the end of the season, the finale will be held in Europe. -
I'm sadly back to using this thread for an obituary. The news broke just before midday that Irish musician Glen Hansard had died in a motorcycle accident this morning at 56 years old. He was lead singer with The Frames, but also sang solo, acted and championed new music. Most of the radio since lunchtime was devoted to playing his music and music he liked, as well as voice notes with memories of Glen. I started to feel like I was the only person in the country who didn't have a great story about meeting him. The song below came in at #31 in the Today FM top 100 Irish songs (mentioned above). As I said above, Glen also acted and appeared in Alan Parker's famous BAFTA-winning movie 'The Commitments' in 1991. In 2006 he was in a small independent movie called 'Once'. The song 'Falling Slowly' with Marketa Irglova from the movie won Glen an Oscar in 2007. I'll admit, his music has mainly passed me by, but all the good stories today have made me want to look into it.
