Having said that, what would be a rather shocking observation for a Charles Leclerc fan is the similarities in the title campaigns of the Monegasque and Sebastian Vettel, the lead driver for the last Ferrari title challenge, which took place in 2018. The campaign capitulated in the second half of the season and the Lewis Hamilton-Mercedes combo cruised to a win. Since then, Ferrari has changed the drivers. We now have Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz in place of Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel....

Oakley is a Cleveland native. BIRDSONG: No one is stopping Cavs in East Barkley, who prides himself on not having a Twitter account, responded to Oakley’s tweet on the air after the game.

Then he had a tire issue and had to pit earlier than the rest of the field, on Lap 90. MORE: Ranking the remaining 12 Chase drivers It looked like the stop might be a serious blow to his Chase for the Sprint Cup chances, but the driver rallied throughout the day at Charlotte Motor Speedway to net a solid top-10 finish. Busch returned to the track in 31st after the right-front tire issue....

Out of the six titles that the 39-year-old Arjuna awardee has won, four were events co-sanctioned with the European Tour in India. He won the Indian Open title, co-sanctioned by Asian and European Tour, in 2016 as well as this year. Chawrasia, however, is yet to win a title on the European soil in his more than a two-decade long career. Placed second on the Order of Merit, Chawrasia will also chase leader David Lipsky of the United States on the money list....

Hank aspired to be a writer more than he did a singer. The biggest thrill of his life was to have somebody sing one of his songs. A few times, especially after some of the pop artists like Tony Bennett started recording some of his songs–Tony Bennett had a big hit record on “Cold, Cold Heart”–we’d be in a restaurant or somewhere that had a jukebox and he’d ease over and if that record was on there he’d play it....

Coming off the back of their first ever qualification for the semi-finals in Europe, the Citizens celebrated the occasion in emphatic fashion, clinically condemning Chelsea to their second straight defeat in the league, and also boosting their own chances of playing Champions League football next season. Here are the major talking points from the game as Manchester City rolled back the years. #1 Manchester City revitalized The Manchester City that we saw at the Bridge yesterday was quite different from the one we are used to seeing in the league this season....

With Demba Ba confirming that he will leave the Blues in the summer, age catching up with Samuel Eto‘o and Fernando Torres looking lost., Chelsea are desperately in need of a striker to make their attack more lethal. Costa moving to Chelsea would be a perfect transfer if the deal is agreed. Costa’s performances this season have been rewarded with a call up to the Spain team. Ba, Torres and Eto’o have managed to score only 19 goals between them, while Diego Costa has single handedly scored 27 goals....

De Jong, who has four years left in his contract at the Camp Nou, has been the talk of the town this summer. He was on the radar of the Red Devils for over three months. However, he was reluctant to depart the Blaugrana, partly due to his deferred salary, which stalled a potential deal. Known for his passing and dribbling, the midfielder was also pursued by Chelsea. The Blaugrana also stepped up their efforts to offload him to help balance their books last month....

The Italian replaces compatriot Antonio Conte, who departed Stamford Bridge on Friday after a long-running saga over his future. Conte had a year to run on his contract and delivered the Premier League title in his first season, but FA Cup success last term masked a disappointing fifth-place finish and problems with the club’s hierarchy. Sarri has long been the favourite to succeed Conte, but contractual wrangles for both managers delayed the appointment....

Goal understands that Chelsea did try to sign Sanchez in the summer but dropped their interest ahead of the January transfer window, despite reports on the contrary after Manchester City gave United a free run to bring him in by dropping out fo the race. Sanchez now earns more than double Chelsea’s highest paid player Eden Hazard with his £500,000-a-week salary, far above Hazard’s current £220,000-a-week contract. Manchester United’s financial might currently far exceeds Chelsea’s, while Manchester City are seeing on pitch success with Pep Guardiola at the helm and have outspent Chelsea every year since 2012-13....

After a dreadful 2015-16 campaign, Antonio Conte has done a remarkable job in his first season in charge at Stamford Bridge to not only return the Blues to title contention but have them running away at the top of the division. Bayern’s Sule explains Chelsea snub Having lost only one match since in the league and FA Cup since switching to a 3-4-3 formation last October, Chelsea would appear to be unstoppable in their quest to lift at least one trophy at the end of the season....

The Chelsea goalkeeper has represented his country since 2011, taking in 54 appearances to date. As a man widely regarded as one of the world’s best in his chosen position, the 25-year-old is a key figure in the Red Devils camp. He has, however, been singled out by Wilmots – who was Belgium boss between 2012 and 2016 – as being responsible for his family revealing important tactical decisions in public....

It is a curious case with England-Australia fixtures. They always have the Ashes on their mind. The Champions Trophy Group A opener will also have an Ashes-prequel air to it though it is necessary to point out to the overtly enthusiastic in both the countries, that the limited overs version of the game is a far cry from the Ashes. England have been keeping a close eye on the Australian team and their continuing slump in international cricket....

It is no secret that Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands’ DLC was received poorly by the community, as gamers missed the expansions of old that provided fresh stories and hours of quests. Though Gearbox should absolutely go back to that style with the next game’s DLC lineup, it should also ensure that each expansion dives deep into a particular character. In doing so, it could tell some more powerful stories and make key characters even more popular....

While Joel McHale, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Danny Pudi, Jim Rash, and Ken Jeong are all confirmed to return for the film, many fan-favorite Community cast-mates are at the moment not attached to the film. These characters are simply must-haves for the upcoming reunion, whether it be through a cameo or a starring role in the film. 10 Elroy Patashnik Keith David joined the cast of Community in its Yahoo-exclusive sixth season as Elroy, the newest member of the Save Greendale Committee....

Now that we can consider it a foregone conclusion that Capcom will continue to do this, that leaves the question of what’s next for the Marvel vs. Capcom series? What new characters will be added to the ever-expanding roster of faces both familiar and unknown? We compiled two lists of five characters, one from Marvel and one from Capcom, characters we desire in Marvel vs. Capcom 4. We already made a list similar to this back when the original Marvel vs....

“We’ll get that fixed,” Telesco told me on SiriusXM NFL Radio on Thursday. “That was largely my fault. We just didn’t do a very good job managing that situation.” MORE: Senior Bowl’s biggest storylines, from Mayfield to Griffin Los Angeles’ kicking game problems began right from the start of the 2017 NFL campaign, when the Chargers released incumbent starter Josh Lambo in favor of rookie Younghoe Koo during the preseason....

The 31-year-old South African started the day five shots behind Haas, but fired a 4-under 67 — the low round of the day — to finish at 7 under and ultimately vanquish the 54-hole leader after parring the first playoff hole.
