Round 10 of the 2022 F1 season had it all- enthralling racing, spectacular crashes (thank goodness for modern motorsport safety measures), first wins, championship points dropped, teammates crashing into each other (the Alpha Tauri debrief not a fun place to be I’d imagine), brilliant strategies, some really REALLY not-so-brilliant strategy (gee I wonder who this […]

2022 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix- The perfect second round to follow up the season opener in Bahrain
Round 1 of the 2022 Formula 1 season gave us a lot to talk about, and simultaneously left us with a fair few questions to be answered.

The British GP- The perfect summary of the McLaren vs Ferrari battle
The battle for third place in the Constructor’s Championship is well and truly on!

We’ve seen it far too often, where just as you think a battle’s heating up, taking shape…. […]
MotoGP-Italian Grand Prix- Quartararo masterclass in Mugello
Mugello. Arguably the most iconic and coveted podium on the MotoGP calendar. Formula 1 has the Monaco Grand Prix, MotoGP has Mugello. Personally, my favourite racetrack in the world, along with Monza and Spa-Francorchamps. The last three races here have been won by Italian giants Ducati. They’ve held a bit of a stranglehold on their […]
Ferrari 2021: The horse is prancing again
Ferrari. The biggest name in Formula 1. Arguably the biggest name in all of motorsport. The sport needs Ferrari to be good. The sport needs their biggest star to shine bright.

Formula 1 back with a bang!
Lewis Hamilton outlasts Max and Red Bull to take the season opener Bahrain Grand Prix The Bahrain Grand Prix to kickstart the season.

India vs England 4th T20i review
FINALLY! A close game in this series! And what a game it was! The two best white ball teams heading into the decider on the back of a close game just makes the decider that much more exciting of a prospect! I think the biggest takeaway from the game, for both sides, will be that- […]
India vs England 3rd Test Preview
Who would’ve thought so? Going into the series, the general consensus was that if England were to win a test, the pink ball test would provide them with their best shot at doing so. This is because nobody really has any idea as to how the ball will behave. How it will change as day […]
Looking at the Premier League title contenders
I think it’s fair to say that this season’s race for the Premier League crown is one of the more interesting and hotly contested ones of the past decade. Liverpool, the Champions, and both the Manchester clubs are battling it out. And it’s got the feel of an epic. One that will go right down […]

The best (or worst?) race for the Champions League (Europa League?) spots ever?!?
The 2018-19 premier league season is without question one of the best in recent times. The brilliant and extremely high quality battle for the title between two wonderful sides (which will be decided on the final day). The energy and freshness that Wolves play with. The scrappy relegation battle. And then there’s the battle for top 4. Is […]
The Evolution of the IPL: From Carnival to Cardinal
When the IPL first came on to the scene in 2008 nobody knew what to expect. Which is partly why it has become so huge over the years. The unknown quantity always produces the most excitement. The IPL was known for its massive crowds, after parties and a place where Bollywood and Cricket combine among […]
Jose vs Ole
One of the greatest managers of all time versus a “big club” rookie. Same club. Same set of players. Very different teams. Polar opposite attitudes.

NEWAGE TV
ADIDAS, TWITTER & FACEBOOK – the new FOX SPORTS AND STAR SPORTS? The first thing that comes to mind when the words twitter and facebook are said? “social media”, not “broadcast channels”.

Does tennis still consist of The Big Four or just The Big ONE?
“Everyone is competitive, everyone is fit and everybody plays great forehands and backhands, but tennis is a mental game”– Novak Djokovic. This quote, perhaps more than others, best describes Novak Djokovic . This year was his best since his remarkable run in 2011. In terms of Grand Slam titles he achieved pretty much the same record […]
The Red Devils Shall Rise Again
“Manchester United will be there or there about, but I’m not so sure that they can win the league/cup”, This is what almost every football ‘expert’ says at the start of every season. Only to be proved wrong time and time again. But in the past few years, the ‘pundits’ are winning the battle. David […]
