FIA suspends steward for Canadian Grand Prix over Verstappen penalty comments
Formula 1's governing body has suspended a driver steward for this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix over comments he made regarding a penalty Max Verstappen received two weeks ago. The FIA said Friday that Derek Warwick's comments were not authorized and he will be replaced by Enrique Bernoldi, who will officiate from the Remote Operations Centre in Geneva for the remainder of the weekend. 'After discussion, Derek acknowledges that his comments were ill-advised in his role as an FIA steward and has apologized,' the FIA said in a statement. 'Derek will resume his duties as a steward in the forthcoming Austrian Grand Prix.' Verstappen received a three-point penalty for running George Russell off track at the Spanish Grand Prix. The penalty put the four-time reigning F1 champion just one point away from an automatic one-race suspension. Warwick did an interview with a gambling publication in which he defended the penalty levied to Verstappen as the 'perfect' punishment because the Dutchman was 'absolutely wrong' in the contact with Russell. It is the second time this year the FIA has penalized a race steward. Johnny Herbert was let go in January as a steward because the FIA said his 'duties as an FIA steward and that of a media pundit were incompatible.' The FIA said the decision was made 'with regret.' Herbert at the end of the 2024 season gave several interviews to gambling sites, some related to high-profile decisions he was involved with in his role as a steward. He even had a public argument with Jos Verstappen, father of the four-time champion, after Verstappen was penalized in Mexico City for an incident with Lando Norris. Jos Verstappen alleged Herbert was biased and said 'the FIA should take a good look at the staffing of the stewards, who they put there and whether there is no appearance of a conflict of interest.' Herbert in turn criticized Verstappen's driving and called it 'over the top.' He also said Verstappen had developed 'a horrible mindset of trying to gain an advantage by taking a fellow driver off the race track.' The FIA determined Herbert had displayed impartiality and could no longer be a steward. Warwick, meanwhile, has apologized and the FIA has indicated his punishment is only for this weekend. ___ AP auto racing:

‘How To Train Your Dragon' Soaring Toward No. 1 Debut At Box Office
The live-action remake of How to Train Your Dragon, starring Gerard Butler, is knocking Lilo & Stitch off the top of the domestic box office perch this weekend. Lilo & Stitch, a live-action remake of the 2002 Disney animated hit has been No. 1 at the domestic and worldwide box office since its debut in theaters on May 23. Since that time, the PG family hit has been outperforming such heavy hitters as Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, Karate Kid: Legends and From the World of John Wick: Ballerina. With the release of How to Train Your Dragon, however, Lilo & Stitch has finally met its match. Deadline projected Friday that the DreamWorks/Universal Pictures film will earn $82.5 million from 4,356 North American theaters through Sunday to become the new No. 1 film domestically. Butler, who voiced the role of Chief Stoic the Vast in the animated film, plays the character in the live-action version of How to Train Your Dragon. Mason Thames plays the role of his haphazard son, Hiccup, who bonds with a Night Fury dragon he names Toothless; while Nico Parker takes on the role of Hiccup's teen Viking rival-turned-ally Astrid. Lilo & Stitch, meanwhile, is projected by Deadline to earn $16 million from 3,675 theaters domestically. If the forecast holds, it will boost the film's worldwide take to $367 million. Dakota Johnson and Pedro Pascal in "Materialists." A24 Also new in theaters this weekend is Past Lives' Oscar-nominated filmmaker Celine Song's romantic comedy Materialists, which stars Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans. Deadline projects Materialists, which is an A24 release, will earn $12 million from 2,844 North American theaters through Sunday. Paramount Pictures' Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning and Lionsgate's John Wick spinoff movie Ballerina are in a battle for the No. 4 spot, as Deadline projects both films will earn about $9 million each. The Final Reckoning is playing in 2942 North American theaters this weekend, while Karate Kid: Legends is in 3,008 venues. Should the projections hold, it will up Ballerina's domestic tally to $41.4 million, and boost The Final Reckoning's North American box office take to $165.2 million. Note: This box office report will be updated throughout the weekend with the most current numbers as they become available. The final numbers for this weekend's box office will be released on Monday.

F1 steward suspended from Canadian GP after Max Verstappen penalty comments
The FIA announced Friday evening that steward Derek Warwick has been suspended from his duties for the remainder of the Canadian Grand Prix weekend. Enrique Bernoldi, a former Formula One driver from the early 2000s, will replace him and officiate 'from the Remote Operations Centre in Geneva,' according to the governing body. Advertisement The move comes after Warwick, who competed in F1 from 1981 to 1993, made 'unauthorized media comments' recently, with reports surfacing earlier this week that the he spoke about a wide range of topics on the gambling site Plejmo, including about Max Verstappen's Spanish Grand Prix penalty that's placed the Dutchman one penalty point away from a race ban. 'Should it have been harsher? I think they got it about right, actually,' Warwick said to Plejmo about the FIA's 10-second penalty on Verstappen for causing a collision with George Russell in Spain. 'I think a lot of people would say he should have got a ban as an example to young karters, and they are probably right, but I feel the penalty was spot on.' 'You've got to look at each individual incident on their own merit. I thought it was very questionable. It's not what I like to see.' The FIA added in its statement, 'After discussion, Derek acknowledges that his comments were ill-advised in his role as an FIA steward and has apologised. Derek will resume his duties as a steward in the forthcoming Austrian Grand Prix.' This is not the first time that the governing body has taken action on stewards making media remarks in recent years. Last season, Johnny Herbert and the FIA mutually agreed his role as a steward was 'incompatible' with his media duties. He raced in F1 from 1989 to 2000 and later became a pundit for Sky Sports in 2012. He left the role in 2022 but remained an analyst, speaking with betting sites. He had made numerous public comments about incidents he oversaw as a steward, which raised concerns within the FIA. Driver stewards play a powerful role in an F1 weekend. While there have been calls for permanent stewards from time to time for consistency reasons, it remains a rotating panel, each race weekend consisting of four individuals. Race control typically notes when incidents happen, and it's the race director who sends it to the stewards. The final judgement falls with the stewards, who are akin to referees. The regulations give guidelines on what penalties are available; however, the stewards decide the infringements and sanctions. The bottom of each decision document states: 'Decisions of the Stewards are taken independently of the FIA and are based solely on the relevant regulations, guidelines and evidence presented.'
