Mercedes driver George Russell finishes P8, but knows there is more work to do
George Russell not only climbed into the points after starting 11th in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, he managed to secure an additional point after picking up the fastest lap of the race in the closing laps.
However, in his own words the Mercedes driver was “disappointed” with himself following the effort in Baku.
On a restart following an early safety car, Russell “made a mess” of his start, putting himself in a difficult position.
Aaron Rodgers has wasted no time acclimating to New York sports. The new Jets quarterback was seen Saturday at the Rangers’ Game 6 victory over the Devils in the NHL playoffs. He was seen at Madison Square Garden again on Sunday afternoon, this time for Game 1 of the Knicks–Heat playoff series.
He got quite an ovation from New Yorkers—understandably so. His arrival marks excitement under center for the Jets franchise for the first time in a long time. Rodgers couldn’t have picked a better time to get on the New York sports scene since there’s no shortage of good teams.
It’s difficult to figure out exactly what the Detroit Lions were trying to accomplish on NFL Draft weekend. They picked Alabama running back Jahmyr Gibbs at #12 after trading back from #6.
Then, they took Iowa linebacker Jack Campbell well ahead of where most analysts thought Campbell might go. They used an early second-round pick on Iowa tight end Sam LaPorta — over Notre Dame’s Michael Mayer who went one selection later.
Then, they took Alabama safety Brian Branch later in the second before grabbing Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker in the third round.
Can Butler stay hot? Will Randle be healthy? Here are the keys to the most surprising matchup of these playoffs.
Last week, Brittney Griner made headlines after she supported biological men playing in women’s sports. And Sunday, former Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines called her out on it.
Griner — who happily criticized the United States before she had to be bailed out of Russian prison for taking an illegal substance into a foreign country – believes banning transgender athletes from competing against women is “a crime.”

“That ranks high on the list of things I’ll be fighting for and speaking up against,” Griner said.
One of the biggest stories of the first round of the NFL Draft was Kentucky quarterback Will Levis. Expected to be selected in the first round, possibly the Top 5, no team picked him Thursday. He chose not to attend the second round, even though the Tennessee Titans selected him almost immediately.
Of course, because it’s 2023, memes of Will Levis, his girlfriend and his sister are all over social media.
“Poor Will Levis, suffering public humiliation in front of a massive national audience,” people thought.
The NBA has fined Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks $25,000 for violating the league’s rules regarding media interview access during the team’s first round series against the Lakers.
The enigmatic forward made headlines throughout the series for his comments and actions on and off the court. However, when Memphis lost Games 3, 4 and 6 in Los Angeles, Brooks declined to speak with media members after the games. He even blamed media for making him seem like a “villain” during the series.
New Orleans is known for its delectable and signature seafood. Gumbo, jambalaya and crawfish are just a handful of some of the amazing dishes found there. They’re all delicious, at times spicy, and maybe the most important trait they all share: You don’t eat them with barbecue sauce. Unfortunately, one of the city’s newest residents broke that edict in a video that has since caused great alarm among Louisiana natives.
Jamaal Williams signed a three-year deal with the Saints in March, but he’s off to a rough start when it comes to ingratiating himself in his new environment.
Colorado football coach Deion Sanders has endured a mass exodus of players into the transfer portal as he overhauls the Buffaloes roster, but he just added a key piece from an SEC power.
Jahquez Robinson, a defensive back who spent the past three seasons at Alabama, has committed to play for Colorado in 2023, he announced on social media. Last year, Robinson played in six games for the Crimson Tide.
Robinson is a former four-star recruit who committed to Alabama out of high school in 2020.
