F1 grid: Starting positions for Austrian Grand Prix

Independent7 hours ago

F1 next heads to the Red Bull Ring for the Austrian Grand Prix and round 11 of the 2025 season.
Oscar Piastri extended his lead in the world championship last time out in Canada despite a fourth-place finish, with his teammate Lando Norris retiring late on after a collision between the two McLaren drivers. The gap at the top of the standings is 22 points.
George Russell claimed Mercedes's first victory of 2025 in Montreal, beating arch rival Max Verstappen to first place while Kimi Antonelli picked up his first podium in F1.
It was another troubling weekend for Ferrari, however, with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton off the pace. The Scuderia will be eyeing an improvement as F1 returns to Europe this weekend.

Rowe edges England to Under-21 Euros glory in extra-time thriller against Germany

Whatever Lee Carsley goes on to achieve in his managerial career, this will be very hard to beat. With England's Under-21s having been pegged back by Germany after racing into a 2-0 lead after goals for Harvey Elliott and Omari Hutchinson, those of a negative disposition were probably thinking back to the 1970 World Cup when Sir Alf Ramsey's reigning champions were eliminated after extra time in the same scenario. But with Thomas Tuchel watching on from the stands after dashing across the Atlantic to be here, Carsley – who wasn't even born back then – clearly had no such thoughts. Instead, he boldly decided to gamble by taking off Elliott and the captain James McAtee and was rewarded by substitute Jonathan Rowe scoring with almost his first touch. It means that England have followed in the footsteps of Dave Sexton's sides more than 40 years ago by winning successive European titles and their fourth in total. On this evidence, the future looks very bright indeed. The England manager was calmness personified before kick-off as he cracked jokes with his assistant Ashley Cole and he had the luxury of being able to name an unchanged side from the semi-final victory over the Netherlands. The momentum gained after a much-improved performance in the second half of their final group stage game against a weakened Germany team helped propel an inexperienced group of players past pre-tournament favourites Spain in the last eight. But with their opponents at full strength this time, the threat posed by 6ft 6in striker Nick Woltemade, who began the game as the tournament's top scorer with six goals in only four appearances, seemed obvious. Such was the interest in this game that Tuchel had flown more than 5,000 miles from the Club World Cup in the United States to be in attendance, while the Germany manager, Julian Nagelsmann cut short his holiday in Majorca. There was no sign of any nerves as England were quick to find their rhythm. Elliott started the move down the right flank that ended up with Hutchinson forcing Noah Atubolu into a save. But Nnamdi Collins made a hash of the clearance and the Liverpool forward was able to steady himself before picking his spot with great precision to score his fifth of the competition. Charlie Cresswell – who is the other remaining member from 2023 – was inches away from doubling the lead when James McAtee fired across the face of goal. Then it was Jay Stansfield's turn following another lightning break from Elliott but the Birmingham striker decided against throwing himself at another McAtee pass with the goal gaping. England (4-2-3-1): Beadle; Livramento, Quansah, Cresswell, Hinshelwood; Anderson (Egan-Riley 99), Scott (Morton 44); Elliott (Rowe 90), McAtee (Nwaneri 90), Hutchinson (Iling-Junior 98); Stansfield (Norton-Cuffy 62)Subs: Edwards, Fellows, Gray, Hackney, Sharman-Lowe, Simkin Goals: Elliott 5, Hutchinson 24, Rowe 92Germany (4-3-3): Atubolu; Collins, Arrey-Mbi, Oermann (Wanner 105), Brown (Ullrich 86); Nebel, Martel (Tresoldi 98), Reitz; Weiper (Röhl 80), Woltemade, Gruda (Knauff 73)Subs: Baum, Ernst, Jander, Noll, Rosenfelder, Siebert, Thielmann Goals: Weiper 45+1, Nebel 61 The Manchester City midfielder finally registered an assist when Germany were caught out again on the break and Hutchinson finished with aplomb, celebrating with an acrobatic flip. The usually understated Carsley could barely contain his delight on the touchline. A flowing move began by the outstanding Elliot Anderson's clever backheel almost resulted in a brilliant team goal but Stansfield could only drag his shot wide. With Woltemade having to drop increasingly deeper, Germany seemed to have no answer. Even when goalkeeper James Beadle almost gifted them a goal when he briefly lost possession, England were still able to go straight up the other end and create another chance with McAtee's shot saved by Atubolu. But the loss of the limping Alex Scott, replaced by Liverpool's Tyler Morton just before half-time, was a blow and that was compounded when Nelson Weiper pulled one back by heading home Paul Nebel's cross in injury time. Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football after newsletter promotion England did not seem to be ruffled by conceding. McAtee was unlucky to see his effort drift just wide after a magnificent dummy left his marker for dead at the start of the second half. But Germany looked so much more threatening when they made it into the final third and Beadle did well not to parry Nebel's cross into the path of the waiting Woltemade, who is set to join Bayern Munich after this tournament. There was to be no such reprieve when Nebel – who qualifies to play for the Republic of Ireland through his grandmother – saw his curling shot deflect off Stansfield and loop over Beadle's despairing dive to equalise. Carsley immediately sacrificed Stansfield for Brooke Norton-Cuffy, with Elliott brought into a more central role. Suddenly the game was on a knife edge as Norton-Cuffy could only direct his shot straight at Atubolu after being set up by Hutchinson. There were hearts in mouths on the England bench when Germany struck the crossbar in injury time but they made it to extra time. Carsley rolled the dice by taking off the exhausted McAtee and Elliott and it immediately paid dividends as Rowe's deft header from Morton's cross restored England's lead. 'We have to dig in,' said Carsley as he gathered his players together in a huddle at the change of ends. 'This is our time now.' He could not contain his delight at the full time whistle after another late scare when Germany hit the bar again. But Carsley and England would not be denied their place in the history books.

Business Secretary meeting Lotus after reports of plans to scrap UK carmaking

The Business Secretary will hold talks with Lotus after the carmaker appeared to shelve plans to shut its UK operations. After reports that Chinese owner Geely was planning to stop manufacturing at the Hethel plant in Norfolk, putting 1,300 jobs at risk, Lotus issued a statement saying it had 'no plans' to close the factory. Jonathan Reynolds will speak to the company on Sunday, the PA news agency understands. The British sportscar brand has been majority-owned by Chinese multinational Geely since 2017. The Financial Times had reported it was considering shutting up shop in the UK and in favour of a new plant in the US. On Saturday, Lotus sought to assuage concerns with a statement that it remains 'committed' to the UK, which it called its largest commercial market in Europe and the 'heart' of the brand. 'Lotus Cars is continuing normal operations, and there are no plans to close the factory,' it said. 'We are actively exploring strategic options to enhance efficiency and ensure global competitiveness in the evolving market. 'We have invested significantly in R&D and operations in the UK, over the past six years. Lotus remains committed to the UK, and its customers, employees, dealers, suppliers, as well as its proud British heritage.'

England 3-2 Germany: Lee Carsley's Young Lions win the U21 Euros AGAIN as Thomas Tuchel watches epic final

It was jotted down in an FA notebook that if England were to get a second crack at Germany out here in Slovakia they'd beat them. It was a short verdict, no more than a line or two, but was a sentiment shared throughout the camp, despite being unceremoniously beaten by Antonio di Salvo's side in the group stage. What that note didn't have down was that this absorbing contest would run 120 minutes, would see England blow a 2-0 first half lead, having their crossbar rattled in the fourth minute of stoppage time in regulation, before scoring with the first attack of extra-time through substitute Jonathan Rowe. At half-time of extra-time Carsley beckoned his players into a huddle, the families only metres away, and he delivered a gladiatorial speech to get them over the line. Back to back European champions. Carsley a history-maker, matching the achievement of Dave Sexton, who won this tournament in 1982 and 1984. Champions - again. Up in the stands England boss Thomas Tuchel roared and winced at the highs and lows of this contest. When Rowe scored with his first meaningful touch, a flicked header from a Tyler Morton cross, he delighted at seeing his motherland sucker-punched. More to follow. MATCH FACTS ENGLAND (4-2-2-2): Beadle 7; Livramento 6.5, Cresswell 8, Quansah 7, Hinshelwood 7; Scott 6.5 (Morton 44, 6.5), Anderson 8.5 (Egan-Riley 99); Elliott 7.5 (Rowe 91), Hutchinson 7 (Iling-Junior 98); McAtee 8 (Nwaneri 91), Stansfield 6 (Norton-Cuffy 62, 6) Goals: Elliott (5), Hutchinson (24), Rowe (92) Manager: Lee Carsley 9 GERMANY (4-4-2): Atubolu 6; Collins 6, Oermann 6.5 (Wanner 105), Arrey-Mbi 7, Brown 6 (Ullrich 86); Nebel 8, Martel 6 (Tresoldi 98), Reitz 7; Weiper 7.5 (Rohl 80), Woltemade 6, Gruda 7 (Knauff 73) Goals: Weiper (45+1), Nebel (61) Booked: Martel Manager: Antonio di Salvo 7 Attendance: 19,153
