The 2023 MotoGP championship battle between Francesco Bagnaia and Jorge Martin will be decided in Sunday’s grand prix final in Valencia. After winning the sprint on Saturday, Martin now trails Bagnaia by just 14 points, with the latter needing to finish at least fifth to ensure his second crown. Saturday saw the first tyre pressure penalties issued in a sprint, with Morbidelli and Luca Marini getting three-second penalties for committing a second offence this season of running underneath the minimum front pressure. Both Martin and Bagnaia have received an official warning for this already this season, meaning a transgression in the grand prix would result in a three-second penalty. This has given rise to fears that the title could be decided by something totally out of the riders’ control. Aprilia’s Aleix Espargaro says this outcome would be a worse image for MotoGP than him slapping Morbidelli during practice in Qatar. “Yesterday [Friday], the ...

With 21 points splitting factory Ducati rider Bagnaia and Pramac’s Martin coming into this weekend’s finale, Bagnaia could have won the championship in the sprint by outscoring his rival by at least four points. Despite leading early on, Bagnaia could only finish fifth as Martin stormed through to win and trimmed his points deficit to 14 going into Sunday’s grand prix. Bagnaia says he made a mistake by choosing the medium compound tyre for Saturday’s sprint, but is confident he can perform well on Sunday. The defending champion also feels Martin will face a tougher task in the decider , knowing he must win with Bagnaia finishing outside the top five to snatch the title . Asked about the pressure he was feeling, Bagnaia said: “The pressure is on both, I think. “I think [Jorge] will be also more in trouble than today, because with 21 points it’s different compared to 14 and knowing that he have to win and don’t have to make mistakes. Me too, the same. ...

The first Clásico of the 2023/24 LaLiga season is upon us, as Barcelona host Real Madrid at 10.15 a.m. ET on Saturday, 28 October. For Real Madrid and Barcelona, this is the first chance to land a direct blow on their biggest rivals in the campaign to lift the LaLiga trophy at the end of the season. Coming into the match Real Madrid are on 25 points and Barcelona are on 24, both having played 10 matches. Right now Real Madrid have won 35 league titles to Barcelona’s 27. Here’s how they built those tallies. How far ahead were Barça in 2022-23? La Blaugrana managed to pull off something of an unlikely domestic victory in 2022-23 to take their total league wins to 27, as they seemingly staggered from one crisis to another off the field, and weren’t overly impressive on it. Yet Xavi Hernández’s side got the job done in emphatic fashion , coming out on top ahead of Los Blancos with 10 points and several matches to spare. Full screen Barcelona celebrate a last-minute Clásico winner in Ma...

Ducati rider Bautista pipped Yamaha man Razgatlioglu by just over a tenth of a second at the end of a breathless 20-lap encounter on Sunday afternoon, as the lead changed hands between the pair countless times. Razgatlioglu led heading into the final lap and looked as if he had done enough to edge out Bautista for what would have been only his third win in a full-length race of the season. But Bautista was able to close up to his opponent in the final sector of the track, and as Razgatlioglu slid exiting the penultimate corner, Bautista was able to find the grip to go all the way around the outside of the final right-hander and take the chequered flag by 0.136s. It completed a clean sweep of wins at Portimao - bringing his total for the year up to 24 out of a possible 33 - and gives him an almost-unassailable championship lead of 60 points heading to this month's final round at Jerez. Bautista needs to score just two points , the equivalent of a ...

Arsenal remain in the hunt for their first Premier League title in 19 years, but they'll have to battle through a tough end to the season and hope Manchester City slip-up for their dream to manifest into reality. It's been a sensational season for the Gunners off the back of a disappointing 2021/22 which ended in heartbreak at the last. While optimism was rife following an excellent summer transfer window and a productive pre-season, nobody expected them to give City this much of a challenge. The Mikel Arteta project, as Edu Gaspar projected, has finally taken off, and the sky seems to be the limit for this youthful Gunners squad. Nevertheless, a strong end to the season is required to retain the good feeling around the club and ensure they duel with City up until Matchday 38. Here are their remaining five fixtures of the 2022/23 Premier League season after losing to City at the Etihad.

Moises Caicedo says he hopes Arsenal win the Premier League this season and has revealed how he reacted to missing out on a January move to the Gunners. The Ecuador international has become one of the Premier League 's best midfielders during his time at the AMEX Stadium and was the subject of interest from Mikel Arteta's side during the winter window, even writing an open letter to the club's board asking to leave. However, Brighton dug their heels in and insisted he would not be sold. Caicedo has since been reintegrated into Roberto De Zerbi's squad and even signed a new contract. Arsenal instead swooped for Chelsea's Jorginho but recent draws to Liverpool and West Ham have dented their title bid. “I was really close to going,” Caicedo told The Telegraph . “I suffered a lot.” “I’m sure I'm going to have many more opportunities . That’s why I continue to do things well. [But] it was tough. At the beginning when I didn’t end up going, lots of people would make...
