As Lewis Hamilton clambered out of his Mercedes in Baku, a whole other side to the porpoising situation became very clear. Up to that point, it had been spoken about as a car performance issues. Some teams, such as Red Bull and Ferrari , had it handled fairly early, while others – notably Mercedes – continued to struggle the violent oscillations caused by the ground-effect aerodynamics reintroduced for Formula 1 cars this year. But the image of seven-time world champion Hamilton struggling to stand up straight, coupled with team-mate George Russell's revelation of back and chest pains, turned attention elsewhere. Performance is one thing, but the health and safety of the drivers was now very much in the spotlight. "I was not surprised, to be honest," said osteopath Gemma Fisher, when asked by Mirror Sport what her reaction was to those images.

The government in Oslo on Monday announced new rules limiting the sale of power to foreign countries as heatwaves threaten Norway’s hydroelectric power generation. Experts said the restrictions threatened the UK’s plan to draw power from Norway this winter via the North Sea Link - leaving electricity supplies more stretched and risking even higher bills for consumers. The National Grid has already revealed that the UK is set to be more dependent than ever on the Continent for power, with interconnectors expected to provide up to 5.7 gigawatts of electricity at peak times.

Et dans certains cas, des exploitants ont dû attendre pratiquement un mois pour conduire leurs vaches à l’abattoir, comme nous l’a … [Read more...] about Sécheresse : une tragédie pour les agriculteurs européens
