Norris muscled past his teammate at the start, sparking fury. “Are we cool with Lando just barging me out of the way?” Piastri asked over team radio. His voice dripped with anger. McLaren told him they would review it later. “That’s not fair,” Piastri snapped. “If he avoids Verstappen by hitting me, that’s a bad job.” Russell stayed calm up front. “He’s flying,” Mercedes radioed. The Briton never faltered, earning his…

A global vision for nutrition and sustainability By 2050, every person could access nutritious, culturally appropriate food while helping the environment. The 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission on Healthy Diets From Sustainable Food Systems proposes a “planetary health diet” as a solution. The report finds that combining this diet with sustainable farming and reduced food waste could feed 9.6 billion people fairly. Researchers from more than 35 countries contributed, showing that global food-related greenhouse gas emissions could fall by over half if nations act together. Currently, about 30% of emissions come from producing, processing, and transporting food, with most of the remainder…

George Russell produced a stunning lap to take pole position for the Singapore Grand Prix, strengthening his case for a Mercedes contract extension.

Verstappen claimed he lost downforce when he caught the McLaren driver returning to the pits on his final lap, gesturing angrily in the cockpit. “You need every bit of clean air on a Q3 lap, and I lost downforce there.

High above Berlin’s Viktoriapark, the rapid keck-keck-keck calls of goshawks echo as the powerful raptors soar and dive, scattering crows in their path. For conservationist Dr Paul O’Donoghue, it is a vision of what could soon become reality in the UK. O’Donoghue and Rewilding UK plan to introduce goshawks into British cities, starting with Chester and London. Once persecuted to near extinction in the UK, the apex predator has thrived in European capitals such as Berlin, Amsterdam, and Prague. There, goshawks hunt pigeons from rooftops and nest in city parks, seemingly unfazed by traffic, joggers, or schoolchildren. The project foresees…

A human rights group claims TikTok recommends pornography and sexualised videos to children.

The platform did not request additional verification. Investigators enabled TikTok’s “restricted mode”. The company advertises this feature as protection against sexual…

Ryanair says it may be forced to cancel up to 600 flights a day during a French air traffic control (ATC) strike next week, potentially disrupting travel for as many as 100,000 passengers. The walkout, called by France’s main ATC union SNCTA, is scheduled for 7–10 October and will reduce capacity across western European airspace.

Michael O’Leary, Ryanair’s chief executive, urged the European Commission to step in and protect overflights, arguing that cancellations should apply only to flights directly…
