Domenicali shares his honest assessment of Red Bull’s dominance, and the growth of the sport
Formula 1 appears to be having a moment.
With three races in the United States this season — including the much-anticipated Las Vegas Grand Prix — coupled with the success of Netflix’s Drive to Survive, F1 is seeing growth both in the United States, and across the globe.
Nick Kyrgios lost an intense, four-set match against Rafael Nadal during Wimbledon in 2019. The loss didn’t come in the final, not even the semifinal, but instead in the second round. Something about that loss, however, pushed the Aussie to have thoughts of suicide.
No other athlete in professional sports may wear their emotions more on their sleeve than Kyrgios. While the 28-year-old has talked about mental health over the years, his sharing of having suicidal thoughts is new.
The Stefon Diggs situation is one where the details matter and they don’t. The wide receiver reportedly arrived in Orchard Park on Tuesday and then left before the start of Bills practice. Coach Sean McDermott told reporters that he was “very concerned.”
Throughout the day, other players being interviewed voiced their support for Diggs. Josh Allen said he had Diggs’s back and that, “What we’re doing here doesn’t work without him.” Von Miller said he was “on Stef’s side.
Kentucky basketball and John Calipari had the worst months of April and May imaginable in terms of roster management. The Wildcats saw a large chunk of their roster leave for the NBA, or transfer out. And then they missed on every single player that they targeted through the portal.
Kentucky failed to land even one single addition through the portal. Yikes.

Here’s our latest look at the top teams in men’s college basketball next season after the NBA deadline passed.
The deadline for men’s college basketball standouts to decide whether or not they’re going to stay in the 2023 NBA Draft has come and gone, which means we finally have a clear (or at least less hazy) look at how the rosters for the top teams in the sport are going to look for the 2023-24 season.
Under a draft of the latest name, image and likeness (NIL) legislation, college athletes would be prohibited from striking deals until a semester into their college careers, but booster-led NIL collectives could provide “benefits” to athletes and their parents with a caveat: The collectives must sign a contract with their affiliated school.
A working draft from Senators Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) and Joe Manchin (D-W.V.
• Before you conjure up any trade destinations for Stefon Diggs, it’s probably important to point out that, for three specific reasons, it’s highly unlikely the Bills even entertain the idea.
One, they’ve leveraged contracts to invest in this year. Josh Allen, Von Miller and Diggs, himself, all had their deals restructured, and free-agent Leonard Floyd did a contract with a base value of $7 million that had void years attached to it—void years that will lead to a dead-money bill in 2024.

Oakland A’s fans gave ultimate middle finger to ownership with perfect ‘reverse boycott’
The Oakland Athletics are in the middle of what might be the saddest relocation plan in modern sports. Owner John Fisher wants to move the team to Las Vegas, and by 2027 the team wants to be playing in the Sin City, per CBS Sports. The Nevada State Senate approved a new stadium for the A’s, a $380 million project that might not even have everyone fully on board.
The New York Mets are in the midst of a miserable stretch as they’ve lost nine of their last 10 games.
