Max Verstappen wins the Brazilian GP to stretch his lead to 62 points in the WDC race with only 3 races to go in the season. Surely Lando can't go past him now.

Ford insists Carlos Sainz Sr still has all to play for in the 2025 Dakar Rally despite losing heaps of time in a crash during the 48-hour chrono stage on Sunday.

Having just crossed the seventh checkpoint at the 325km mark, Sainz’s Ford Raptor flipped over and landed on its roof over sand, leaving him stranded in the Saudi desert.
