Monaco Grand Prix racing track
A day of auto racing around the globe kicks off with one of the most prestigious races in the entire sport: the Formula One Monaco Grand Prix.

The 'crown jewel of the F1 schedule,' which is held at the Circuit de Monaco, has a 3.337 km circut with 19 turns. Racers will drive 78 laps total. Monaco is the only race on the F1 schedule that doesn't meet the league's 190-mile minimum race distance, and it's also one of the slowest on average thanks to a tight, twisting course.
Monte Carlo native Charles Leclerc won last year's race, becoming the first driver from Monaco to win the Monaco GP in its history. Leclerc will start in second position this year, behind Lando Norris.
Aside from Norris and Leclerc, Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen make up the first four positions. One of Norris, Piastri, or Verstappen have won every race so far this season (the last time someone who wasn't one of those three won a F1 race was in the November 2024 Las Vegas GP).

Kendrick Perkins dishes on why 2025 Thunder is best in franchise history
The post Kendrick Perkins dishes on why 2025 Thunder is best in franchise history appeared first on ClutchPoints. Before the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 4-1 to reach the NBA Finals, ESPN's Kendrick Perkins crowned Shai Gilgeous-Alexander the franchise's best player ever. Perkins doubled down on that take. After watching Gilgeous-Alexander lead the Thunder in Game 5 at the Paycom Center, Perkins says this year's Oklahoma City team is a deeper roster compared to his 2012 squad. Advertisement When asked to compare the two, 13 years removed from the last Thunder team to reach the NBA Finals, Perkins explained why this year's group gets the edge over Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, James Harden, and Perkins' 2012 squad, per ESPN's NBA Today. 'I got this year's Thunder team, 2025, and it's no knock to ours in 2012,' Perkins said. 'Their depth. You talk about bringing in a Cason Wallace, Alex Caruso, guys who are gonna get into you defensively, and all of a sudden you have a guy like Jalen Williams, who's not afraid to mix it up, who was crucial for them in that Denver Nuggets series against Jokic. They're just too deep. We're talking about one of the greatest defensive teams in NBA history.' Despite the Hall of Fame careers Durant, Westbrook, and Harden are leading, Perkins explained why the 2024-25 Thunder team as a whole would win in a hypothetical best-of-7 series. 'Now, it's no knock when it comes down to what Russ or KD, or James brought to the table, or even Serge Ibaka, but this team is just more polished,' Perkins added. 'They have more adults in the room than just have old souls. They act like they've been there before, and that's the scary part, and that's why I give them the edge. But it would go seven games.' Advertisement The Thunder enter the NBA Finals with a 12-4 record. Kendrick Perkins doubles down on strong SGA, Thunder take Alonzo Adams-Imagn Images ESPN analyst Kendrick Perkins doubled down on his take on Thunder All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Before his former team clinched the NBA Finals, Perkins labeled Gilgeous-Alexander the greatest Thunder player in franchise history. While predicting the Thunder to win the NBA Finals, Perkins says it'll solidify Gilgeous-Alexander as the greatest player in the franchise's history. 'He will be the greatest Thunder ever. Yes, past Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook,' Perkins said. 'Third consecutive season of averaging over 30 shooting over 50% from the field, scoring title, MVP, conference MVP, going to the NBA Finals, winning the championship, and he's going to win Finals MVP.' Perkins also believes the title would solidify Gilgeous-Alexander's place in the league's top-tier level of superstars.

MLB commissioner Manfred has regret over ESPN opt-out, hopes for new partner in July
NEW YORK — On the day of their breakup this spring, Major League Baseball flashed some anger toward ESPN. When the broadcaster opted out of the final three years of its national baseball deal, commissioner Rob Manfred criticized the network in a letter to the sport's owners. A few months later, a different feeling has cropped up: regret. Advertisement MLB is in talks with three different broadcasters over the rights ESPN once held, Manfred said, and he hopes a new 2026-28 deal is done come the All-Star Game in mid-July. But however those negotiations end, MLB is almost certainly going to make less than the estimated $550 million ESPN would have paid annually. Manfred acknowledged Wednesday evening he would rather not be in the spot he is now. 'Look, we agreed to the opt-out as part of a set of compromises that got us to the deal we had,' Manfred said at MLB headquarters, where the league was hosting owners' meetings. 'We liked the deal we had. You know, looking backwards, do I wish I wasn't in a position to sell three years, so we can line our rights up to 2028? The answer to that is yes.' MLB's other two national TV deals, with FOX and Turner, both run through the 2028 season. ESPN's former rights include Sunday Night Baseball, the Home Run Derby and eight to 12 first-round playoff games. MLB has held talks with NBC, Apple and FOX about various parts of the package. NBC made an initial offer that was not close to what ESPN was paying, people briefed on the talks who were not authorized to speak publicly said, but NBC offers the opportunity of broad distribution. Apple already has an $85 million deal with MLB for exclusive Friday Night Baseball doubleheaders. Apple and MLB have not disclosed how many viewers watch these games, but drawing eyeballs could be a concern. 'I would overweight reach, because reach is significant to … the larger negotiation we'll have for the post-'28 period,' Manfred said of his approach to the ESPN rights. 'We continue to believe that reach drives our live business, and the combination of those two things, at least for that short period of time, I would definitely overweight reach.' FOX could emerge as a possibility for the Home Run Derby and a small piece of the overall package. Advertisement 'Each set of conversations involves a different group of content. They're not the same,' Manfred said. 'It's not like it's one package that we're talking to three people about. We're talking to three people about different packages.' The Athletic previously reported MLB is also dangling its out-of-market streaming product, MLB has never made this package available and it could have broad appeal to places like YouTube, Apple, Amazon or ESPN, among others. While ESPN remains interested in baseball, the sides have not resumed negotiations since February's opt-out schism. 'We are not in conversations with them,' ESPN chairperson Jimmy Pitaro said in mid-May. MLB was the party that pushed for the inclusion of the opt-out ESPN exercised in the first place, ESPN baseball broadcaster Boog Sciambi said publicly after the breakup. MLB declined comment on Wednesday. MLB could wind up with multiple partners, divvying up the ESPN rights into different packages. NBC, which has Sunday night NFL and NBA programming, has a natural interest in growing its Sunday night offerings year-round. MLB has a labor negotiation looming with the players after the 2026 season that has the potential to bring an offseason lockout and, if talks do not go well, canceled games in 2027. However, Manfred said fear of a work stoppage has not been an overlay in negotiations for the three years of media rights. 'We're not committed or telling people there's going to be a lockout after the end of the '26 season,' Manfred said. 'That all remains to be decided. And we're just not having those kinds of conversations in the context of media.' MLB touted its TV ratings in a news release this week, noting gains on ESPN, FOX and TBS. The league did not publicize numbers for Apple's Friday Night streams, nor for Roku's Sunday Morning package. Apple is paying the league $85 million per season, while Roku is paying $10 million.
