Max Verstappen explains why McLaren are dominating this year
McLaren are dominating the Formula 1 season, having all but secured the constructors' title with a massive 299-point lead over Ferrari. The drivers' championship is now a direct shootout between McLaren teammates Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, with Norris closing the gap to nine points after his victory in Hungary. Max Verstappen believes McLaren's comprehensive success stems from their "incredible" medium corner speed and superior tyre degradation. McLaren team principal Andrea Stella confirmed Verstappen's assessment, stating GPS data shows their car achieves the highest mid-corner speed in medium-speed corners. Stella acknowledged that while McLaren excels in medium-speed corners, they are not the fastest in very high or low-speed corners, but these medium-speed corners are prevalent in the championship.

Browns' Myles Garrett 40mph over limit in eighth speeding citation in recent years
Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was cited for travelling 100mph in a 60mph zone on Saturday night. The 29-year-old was stopped in his Ferrari shortly after 2am on a highway in suburban Cleveland. The Browns had just returned from a preseason victory over the Panthers in North Carolina. He was issued a $250 ticket and is scheduled to appear in court on Thursday, but can pay the fine to avoid attending court. The incident comes three years after Garrett was hospitalized after he flipped his Porsche in a single-vehicle crash. He was traveling 65mph in a 45mph zone before driving off the side of the road, striking a ditch and fire hydrant. The defensive end suffered a sprained shoulder, strained biceps and had several cuts and bruises from the wreck. Saturday's stop was the eighth time Garrett has been cited for speeding since being drafted first overall in 2017 out of Texas A&M. Garrett, the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year, signed a four-year contract extension with the Browns, which includes $123.5m guaranteed, earlier this year. The Brown have not commented on the incident. They are scheduled to travel to Philadelphia on Tuesday for two joint practices and a preseason game. Another high-profile member of the Browns, rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders, was pulled over twice for speeding prior to training camp. In one of the incidents, Sanders was pulled over for going 91mph in a 65mph zone.
