John Crichton-Stuart better known as Johnny Dumfries passed away at the age of 62.

 

Still best known as Ayrton Senna's Lotus teammate in 1986 (only because Senna vetoed the hire of Derek Warwick).

 

Winner of Le Mans 24 hours in 1988.

Alex Palou wins the IndyCar opener at Barber. That is a mild upset indeed.

 

Jimmie Johnson finished 19th three laps down after a harmless spin in the process.

 

Big pile-up on the opening lap eliminated Josef Newgarden who caused it by putting a wheel on the grass and spinning across the track.

 

@heywoodu Rinus VeeKay finished 6th after spinning out in that melee.

So this happened in between stages of the first ever Croatian WRC stage...

 

I'm curious where did this World Champion got his drivers license... :whistle:

Duuude... Moments after escaping the accident site (see above), Ogier was filmed intentionally driving through red lights. :facepalm:


FIA fined him 7000 euros apparently (5000 for causing the accident + 2000 for running the red lights).

    • If you didn’t know it was figure skating you would think  Kulewska was in gymnastics with his bodysuit  
    • Yes in Slopestyle,    but there athletes who will not compete after the Opening Ceremony, let be honnest if POL as expected will not qualify to the final rounds their Ice Dance Pair will end their competition at the Olympics before the Opening Ceremony    Same is at risk for the French Pairs and Japanese Ice Dance pair, but here we can expect they qualify in the team event among the final 5 teams though  
    • Lots of mistakes by Switzerland, but our guys are finally playing the way they know how to. 3–0 after the first end.
    • Oh sadly us Canadians know too much about that   Just look at Gilles’ and Porier’s performance at the Finlandia Trophy and tell me how they didn’t win gold, there was so much outrage after that 
    • Moncler has announced 's clothes for the opening ceremony. They are....well, something, I suppose. For rain coats they look quite nice.   Flag bearers get the white ones, Bruna the dark version with the, I don't know...hat?   https://www.instagram.com/p/DUaIyN1DExb/

    • It’s simply the only skating event where jumps don’t matter, only choreography. And how much you bribe the judges matters too.
    • Can’t say I understand how scoring works in ice dance, the rest are easy to determine how good of a score based off spins during jumps
