Spain to host two Grand Prix as F1 announces calendar for 2026
Spain will host two Formula One Grand Prix in 2026, with the new race in Madrid joining Barcelona, after organisers on Tuesday announced the calendar for a season that could bring big changes on the grid. The 2026 campaign will open for the second successive season in Australia at Melbourne's Albert Park street circuit on March 6-8. The race in the Spanish capital Madrid is on September 11-13 and will bring the curtain down on the European segment of the season. The new Madrid circuit will have both street and non-street sectors. The 24-weekend campaign will again conclude in Abu Dhabi, on December 4-6. Montreal in Canada will now follow Miami in May to cut down on travelling for the teams. The 2026 season promises to look radically different with Cadillac becoming the 11th team on the grid and sweeping new regulations on aerodynamics and power units. Mohammed Ben Sulayem, president of motorsport's governing body, the FIA, said: "Next year's FIA Formula One World Championship marks a significant new chapter for our sport. "A new race, new teams, and the arrival of new manufacturers, all ushering in a fresh era of innovation and competition."

Goa Flexes Its Muscles – and So Does Chandigarh
The places with the most gyms per person in India, ranked… -By Richard McKay of Sprung New Delhi [India], June 10: India is working out like never before. From boxsized neighbourhood studios to swish health clubs with smoothie bars, the country now boasts close to 100,000 commercial gyms. But the spread is far from equal. Fresh industry data put tiny Goa on top for gym access, while rural giants still struggle to get people through a turnstile. The top 10 gyms per 100,000 people Rank State / UT Gyms Pop. (est.) Gyms / 100k 1 Goa 370 1.6 m 23.5 2 Chandigarh 216 1.1 m 20.5 3 Haryana 5,258 30.2 m 17.4 4 Punjab 4,752 30.7 m 15.5 5 Puducherry 185 1.25 m 14.8 6 Delhi (NCT) 3,163 21.6 m 14.7 7 Himachal Pradesh 878 7.5 m 11.8 8 Kerala 4,041 35.8 m 11.3 9 Mizoram 131 1.2 m 10.6 10 Manipur 328 3.2 m 10.2 (Method: commercial gyms listed in May 2025 SmartScrapers data, divided by the latest population estimates. Why does little Goa win? Tourism power – millions of holidaymakers expect hotel gyms and boutique studios. Higher wages – India's top percapita income means locals can afford memberships. Urban lifestyle – twothirds of Goans live in towns, so footfall is close at hand. Chandigarh lifts heavy too The Union Territory is barely a dot on the map, yet bodybuilding culture and deep pockets push it to second place. One gym serves roughly every 5,000 residents – better than most European cities. Delhi: large market, midtable score The capital has more than 3,000 gyms, but with over 21 million people it ranks only sixth per head. High rents and fierce competition mean new entrants need a sharp edge – think techdriven classes, womenonly spaces, or luxury design. The growth frontier Huge states such as Bihar, Odisha and Chhattisgarh sit at the bottom with just three to four gyms per 100,000 people. For brands chasing scale, these regions offer a blank canvas – provided prices match local wallets and real estate. Three takeaways for gym operators Premium niches thrive in small, affluent pockets. Goa, Chandigarh and Puducherry reward clever positioning over sheer size. Middletier chains can still snowball in Maharashtra, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. Big absolute numbers, modest percapita density. Lowcost, lowtech formats suit the rural heartland. Basic weight rooms and community fitness hubs beat shiny treadmills where budgets are tight. India's fitness boom is only warming up. Even the leaders in this table trail far behind mature markets like the UK and US. Expect the gap to narrow fast as health awareness climbs – and remember, the next breakout gym town might be hiding in plain sight.

Can FIFA's Club World Cup, In A Crowded Calendar, Prove The Naysayers Wrong?
Last Updated: FIFA's new Club World Cup, with 32 teams and $1 billion to win, starts June 14. With a staggering $1 billion in prize money, some of the biggest stars in football, and clubs from around the world competing, FIFA's new Club World Cup has all the makings of a major event. However, the 32-team tournament, set to take place across the USA from June 14 to July 13, has faced scepticism and criticism since FIFA president Gianni Infantino first proposed the idea. As a newcomer in an already crowded football calendar, it remains to be seen whether this competition can secure a regular spot. Player representatives, including global union FIFPRO, have raised concerns about the excessive workload on players. Others question if fans will show up in large numbers for the group stage fixtures. 'Players will have to perform at the end of an 11-month season with little prospect of getting enough rest before the following season starts," FIFPRO warned when FIFA formally announced the tournament in 2023. Indeed, the event adds to an already packed schedule for top players. Inter Milan's Marcus Thuram and Paris Saint-Germain's Desire Doue played in the UEFA Champions League final on May 31 and then quickly switched to represent their countries in the Nations League finals in Germany. They have since rejoined their clubs for the new FIFA tournament, where both teams are expected to advance to the latter stages. The latter stages, likely featuring top European clubs against the best South American sides, should attract large crowds. However, ticket sales for group-stage games involving less globally renowned clubs from Asia, North America, and Africa remain uncertain. Fixtures like the June 17 match in Orlando between South Korean club Ulsan HD and South Africa's Mamelodi Sundowns will certainly need the full force of American marketing to fill the stadium. FIFA hopes that with broadcasters DAZN offering free streaming of the tournament and the lure of giant club and player brands, fans worldwide will be captivated by the new competition. 'We are talking about something never seen before (that will) bring the magic of a national team World Cup to the club level," Infantino said. 'This tournament will be the beginning of something historic, something that will change our sport for the better and for all future generations who will come to love it as we do," he added. In an era where players drive interest as much as, if not more than clubs, the participation of stars such as Lionel Messi, Harry Kane, and Kylian Mbappe should ensure social media buzz. Twelve of the 32 teams come from Europe, including freshly crowned Champions League winners PSG, the continent's most successful club Real Madrid, Premier League giants Manchester City and Chelsea, and German powerhouses Bayern Munich. South America's six teams include four Brazilian clubs, such as Copa Libertadores winners Botafogo and their Rio de Janeiro rivals Flamengo, along with Argentina's top clubs River Plate and Boca Juniors. Adding local interest, Major League Soccer has three teams in the tournament: Los Angeles FC, the Seattle Sounders, and Messi's Inter Miami. Additionally, Mexico's Pachuca and Monterrey are expected to attract significant support in the USA. Four clubs represent Africa, including Egypt's storied Al Ahly, who will open the tournament against Messi and Miami on June 14. Asia's quartet includes Saudi club, Al-Hilal. American fans often snap up tickets for European teams playing pre-season friendlies in NFL stadiums, so the competitive aspect should draw healthy crowds for the marquee matches. Questions about how seriously clubs would take the new competition have been somewhat quelled by the announcement of the significant prize fund. The billion dollars are divided between participation fees for all clubs and rewards for those advancing deep into the tournament. The winner could walk away with up to $125 million. FIFA's current plan is to hold the tournament every four years, but its future frequency may change based on its initial reception. If the tournament flops, critics will likely re-emerge to question its necessity. However, if it proves to be a roaring success, it's not hard to imagine some at FIFA pushing for more frequent iterations.
