Attendance over the entire week was 480,000, organizers said.
Lando Norris was challenged throughout the Austrian Grand Prix by teammate Oscar Piastri but still held on to take the win, with Charles Leclerc third for Ferrari.

Consumer authority slaps Rs 10 lakh fine on Rapido for misleading ads, unfair trade practices
NEW DELHI: The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has imposed a penalty of Rs 10 lakh on ride-hailing platform Rapido for disseminating misleading advertisements and engaging in unfair trade practices. The action was taken suo motu by the authority following investigation into the company's advertisement claim: 'Guaranteed Auto. Auto in 5 mins or get Rs 50'. The CCPA, in its order issued on Wednesday, directed Rapido to immediately discontinue the misleading advertisements and compensate consumers who were not provided the promised cashback. Each affected consumer is to be paid Rs 50, as originally advertised. It also instructed the company to file a compliance report within 15 days. According to CCPA, Rapido's misleading advertisement ran for over 18 months in multiple regional languages and across more than 120 cities. 'Therefore, the CCPA finds it necessary to impose a penalty to safeguard the interests of consumers,' it said. As per the order, between April 2023 and May 2024, 575 complaints were filed against Rapido on the National Consumer Helpline and these covered issues such as non-refund of amounts, overcharging, service deficiency, and failure to provide promised benefits. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 1 Reason to Read The 5 Books American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends For Turning Your Life... Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Of these, five complaints were directly related to the misleading 'guaranteed auto' claim. Consumers had reported that instead of receiving Rs 50 upon failure to get an auto within 5 minutes, they were credited with only Rs 5 in Rapido coins — which could only be redeemed against bike rides and expired within seven days. The authority found that these terms were neither clearly stated nor prominently displayed. In its defence, the company submitted that the terms and conditions were clear that customers would be eligible for coins 'up to Rs 50 which could be redeemed against Bike rides on Rapido platform' and that the validity of such coins was for 7 days from the time it is credited to customer's wallet. However, the CCPA noted that the advertisements did not include the term 'up to', and the 'T&C Apply' disclaimer was barely visible, misleading the average consumer. But the CCPA investigation found that the company didn't include the term 'up to' in its advertisements, and the 'T&C Apply' disclaimer was barely visible, misleading the average consumer. The regulator is examining issues of advance tip by riding hailing firms.

'Rather see men dance': Olympic legend Sharron Davies shocks NFL world after boldly backing male cheerleaders (Image Via Google) Sharron Davies, the British Olympic silver medalist and sports broadcaster, sparked strong reactions online after she publicly supported male cheerleaders in the National Football League. On Monday, August 18, 2025, Sharron Davies wrote on X (formerly Twitter) that she fully supports the Minnesota Vikings for adding Blaize Shiek and Louie Conn to their cheer squad. She said equality must go 'both ways' and praised the decision. Her comments quickly spread across social media and caused anger and debate among NFL fans and followers. Olympic medalist Sharron Davies says male cheerleaders deserve equal space in NFL In her first message on X, Sharron Davies said she is 'all for' male cheerleaders and pointed to the recent World Aquatics Championships as proof that sports should be open to everyone. She praised the Minnesota Vikings for making room for male dancers and wrote, 'Respect and opportunity to be as feminine or masculine as you want in safety.' Several fans agreed with her and reminded others that male cheerleaders have been part of American college sports for years. The Minnesota Vikings shared a detailed statement last week. The team said that all cheerleaders go through the same audition process and that Blaize Shiek and Louie Conn were selected because of their dance talent and passion for game-day performance. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Woman sells ring given by ex, then jeweler tells her 'This can't be true' Daily Sport X Undo Also Read: 'I Love It': Emma Raducanu And Carlos Alcaraz Surprise Fans With US Open Mixed Doubles Debut And Stir Romance Rumors NFL supporters accuse Sharron Davies of changing her stance on gender in sports Even though some people supported Sharron Davies, many others strongly disagreed with her.

According to Fox News, the topic was also discussed on Saturday Night With Jimmy Failla, where guest host Will Cain claimed the NFL was 'focusing on the wrong thing.' He argued that the current male cheerleaders look more like 'female dancers' than the traditional male bases in college cheer teams. The conversation is still ongoing as more fans react online.

Among them was Kimi Antonelli, who enjoyed some quality time with his girlfriend Eliska Babickova. While Babickova regularly shared snaps of him on Instagram, Antonelli had stayed quiet — until now. He finally treated fans to a much-awaited vacation photo dump on Instagram. Kimi Antonelli and Eliska Babickova's new vacation pictures go online Kimi Antonelli posted multiple photos and videos from the trip with the caption 'Summer vibes' alongside a desert island emoji.

Pointing to the romantic photos, one more wrote, 'Summer break well spent.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Wildlife Cameras Capture The Unthinkable Ohi Blog Undo A few days earlier, Babickova had also posted her own vacation dump, with the caption 'vacationing,' featuring more cozy moments with Antonelli, including a cover photo of them in a close embrace. Kimi Antonelli yet to secure his first F1 win Kimi Antonelli has delivered a decent performance in his rookie season, stepping into Mercedes after Lewis Hamilton's move to Ferrari. While he started the year strong, his form has dipped slightly in recent races. His teammate George Russell recently defended him. According to RacingNews365, Russell said, "As a young driver you've got to look at it objectively, in terms of his own performance. You could argue he's actually performing better than he did at the start of the year when you look at the lap time deficit. In Canada, when we were on pole, he was fourth and half a second behind, but in Spa he was only three-tenths off me. And that was the difference between being out in Q1 or making it through to Q3. ' He added, 'The team have made it very clear he shouldn't worry about the results. He's still doing a very good job considering his experience.'
