São Paulo’s Interlagos circuit is famous for producing thrilling racing, with no shortage of Brazilian blockbusters over the years. But 2024’s edition was next level, with Red Bull’s top gun Max Verstappen delivering the ultimate fightback drive in torrential conditions - in which he took his first win since Spain from 17th on the grid.

Thousands of rescuers pumped water from submerged buildings, churned through muddy streets and cleared debris on Monday as Spain braced for more deaths from its worst floods in decades.
The toll stands at 217 dead and could spike in the coming days as an unknown number of people remain missing. Around 17,000 soldiers, police officers, civil guards and firefighters spent a sixth day distributing aid, repairing infrastructure and searching for bodies using heavy machinery, drones and sniffer dogs.

Moldova's pro-Western president Maia Sandu has won a second term in office in a closely watched presidential election runoff. With nearly all of the ballots counted, Sandu is ahead with some 55% of the vote, compared to rival Alexandr Stoianoglo's 45%. The vote has been overshadowed by EU allegations of Russian meddling, which Moscow denies.
Stoianoglo had promised closer ties with Moscow.

It has been a tough triple header for the team - and the final day of competition continued in very much the same way. Qualifying and the race itself were bittersweet: Lewis struggled for confidence in the car, and did not progress past Q1 in a session that saw several cars finish out of position; George was able to build greater confidence in the rear end in particular and took a strong P2 on the grid. The aborted start led to some unusual circumstances but when the race proper began, George ran strongly at the head of the field until the VSC came out at the same time as a heavy rain shower. We wanted to use that opportunity to change his worn intermediate tyres and were followed into the pits by Norris from second place - while Verstappen and the Alpine drivers stayed out and took the gamble on a Safety Car or red flag, which subsequently came. When racing resumed, with everybody on new tyres, George was able to get past Leclerc into P4 but then - as we saw up and down the field today - got stuck behind an ultimately slower car and was unable to overtake, without DRS available. It was the same story for Lewis a little further back, who climbed into the points but was unable to pass Lawson despite several close attempts. P4 and P10 feel like a meagre reward after leading the first part of the race, but there's plenty for us to pick through and learn from across this weekend, and from the last three races. We will be focusing on that work in the coming days, to give ourselves the strongest foundation for the final triple header of the season

McLaren's Lando Norris won the sprint race in Brazil, while team orders and Max Verstappen's penalty were much discussed. One of the main topics of the day was the watercooled tyre story. While these were being discussed, the qualifying scheduled for the afternoon were postponed due to heavy rain.
So how will the grid be set for Sunday's Grand Prix or when will qualifying be organised? Jon Noble and Filip Cleeren reporting from the Interlagos Circuit.

Francesca Albanese says there is nothing that prevents a UN member state from abiding by international law, and states individually have an obligation not to aid or assist a state “which is committing atrocities day in and day out”.
“They have to stop those who are still transferring weapons [to Israel]… and also buying or purchasing military and security services from Israel must stop,” she told Al Jazeera.
Albanese said any trade with Israel must be “interrupted”, adding that diplomatic and political sanctions must also be applied.
“Whoever is not taking these steps is either responsible or completely indifferent to the plight of millions of Palestinians,” she noted.
