Liverpool Midfielder Szoboszlai Signs New Contract

Formula 1 driver Kimi Antonelli is taking advice from tennis icon Roger Federer to navigate the pressures of the championship fight. Following a series of car problems that have eroded his lead, Antonelli met with Federer at Wimbledon, who advised him to focus on one race at a time and control his emotions.

“

About pressure, he just told me to really focus one race at a time, just focus on what you can control, and also to control the emotions, especially the ones that can make you do mistakes.

"About pressure, he just told me to really focus one race at a time, just focus on what you can control, and also to control the emotions, especially the ones that can make you do mistakes," Antonelli said. He emphasized maximizing opportunities within his control, acknowledging that external factors are part of the sport. The Mercedes team is reportedly working to prevent recurring issues.

Those were the main pieces of advice. Other than that, it was an incredible experience to witness.

Meanwhile, Antonelli's Mercedes teammate George Russell is experiencing a difficult period. Despite a second-place finish at the British Grand Prix, Russell felt unsatisfied, attributing it to luck rather than speed, as he benefited from rivals' misfortunes. The upcoming Belgian Grand Prix, with its similarities to Silverstone, could present a challenge for Russell and an opportunity for Ferrari, whose drivers Leclerc and Hamilton are showing strong form.

“

I just need to maximize every opportunity I get, what I have in control, and then we’ll see what the rest will be.

Ferrari was surprised by their pace in Britain and is working to replicate it in Belgium. Mercedes, despite its current standing, is considered the team to beat. Lando Norris faces a grid penalty due to a part change on his McLaren, while teammate Oscar Piastri expressed confidence in his future with the team amid speculation about Max Verstappen. Verstappen himself remained non-committal about his future but acknowledged Red Bull team boss Laurent Mekies.

It's part of the sport and the team are doing a tremendous job to make sure that all these issues are not happening again.
