Red Bull’s Verstappen, winner in two of the last three Formula One races, claimed pole ahead of the two Mercedes of Valtteri Bottas and Hamilton, both of whom are looking to bounce back from a poor outing in Germany last week. Hungary is one of Hamilton’s favourite F1 venues, with a record six race wins to his name, and he is eager to make life difficult for the in-form Dutchman on Sunday....
Ryan Newman ran over something and broke a bead blower and his splitter in the first 50-minute session. Then at the end of the final session, Denny Hamlin nearly spun when he dipped on to the access road, hit a little bit of grass and nearly spun. “That was almost big,” Hamlin told his crew. It wasn’t big. What was much bigger was the fact that Hamlin was third-quickest on the best 10-lap average speed in the final 50-minute session on the 1....
After winning the second stage of Overton’s 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Kyle Busch boasted he was going to “lap the field” and win Sunday’s race. But Busch was penalised twice entering the pits too fast and dropped back into the field as Hamlin reigned supreme. Hamlin patiently ran near the front the entire day and made perfectly strategic pit stops to win the race at Loudon. To win Hamlin had to hold off Larson to clinch a spot in NASCAR’s playoff....
Mergers are traditionally tallied in dollars, and the sum hit a record last year: corporate couplings totaled $2.5 trillion. But beneath those piles of money are several million people whose lives are often upended when two companies put themselves together. For top executives, mergers can bring incredible riches; for bottom-rung workers toiling in plants or behind counters, changes may be imperceptible. The folks in the middle face the biggest challenges....

But it was the point guard’s defense that coach Mike D’Antoni raved about after Harden blocked three shots and helped limit Orlando 7-footer Nikola Vucevic to just two points in the second half. “I just told James they voted him in the wrong place. They got him as a guard in the All-Star (Game) — he should be a center,” D’Antoni said with a chuckle. “That’s what he is. He’s a point-center and his defense in the post and right behind him is Eric Gordon … is really good....
RELATED: Sonic The Hedgehog: The Bravest Things Tails Has Done Then there are the levels in Sonic games that test the player’s skill - and patience. These levels are typically set up a little differently than the other stages. Some have underwater sections, some required precise jumping, and some have strategically placed bumpers that will send Sonic flying toward a less-than-ideal landing spot. Updated on January 22, 2023, by Jeff Drake: The original list had what is generally accepted as the hardest levels in the Sonic games....
Harrington - a vice-captain at the last three Ryder Cups who played in the competition six times - succeeds Thomas Bjorn at the helm of the European team.

While rarely occurring, Halo Infinite players who have come across the save file glitch are calling attention to the problem so that it doesn’t happen to anyone else. There’s luckily an easy way to avoid it, but it requires Halo Infinite players to be aware of what’s happening. The heart of the issue is that Halo Infinite is mistakenly prompting players to log into Xbox even though they’re still logged in....
For the overwhleming praise that Halo Infinite has received, it has come at the cost of some pretty detrimental criticism. The major problem that fans expressed out of the gate was Halo Infinite’s slow battle pass progression, where players could play dozens of matches and only rank up a quaint number of times. 343 Industries quickly released fixes that essentially made it so players were earning per-match XP, with promises of further, more developed changes coming down the line....

LONDON (Reuters) - Triple Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton supported Mercedes’ decision to hire Valtteri Bottas early on and the team can hope for fewer fireworks between their drivers this season, boss Toto Wolff said on Wednesday. Bottas has joined from Williams to take the place of Germany’s Nico Rosberg, who retired in December days after winning his first title.
