Didn’t have time to follow the sports news this weekend? Franceinfo: sport offers you a catch-up session.
The last weekend of the holidays was ideal to take advantage of more than mild weather. If you have not followed everything that has happened on the sport planet, franceinfo: sport summarizes what you should not miss.
Winner in Lyon (4-1), PSG seems to have found the right fuel. In Italy, on the land of Ferrari, it is Max Verstappen who has entered the history of Formula 1 a little more with a tenth consecutive victory, unheard of. In New York, the French are gray with the elimination of the last committed, Clara Burel and Arthur Rinderknech, in the third round.
Ligue 1: the dolphin PSG before the truce
After its two inaugural draws, PSG seem to be gaining momentum. After its convincing success once morest Lens last week, Luis Enrique’s team recorded its first away victory (4-1), on the ground of a weak team from Lyon. The early opening score from Kylian Mbappé on a penalty only weakened a Lyon edifice which did not need that to sink. With four goals conceded in the first period (including a double from the French international), Laurent Blanc’s men might not give themselves the right to hope.
Thanks to this second success in a row, Paris climbed to second position in Ligue 1, two lengths behind leader Monaco, tied with OM, before the international break.
F1: Max Verstappen, the first to win 10 Grands Prix in a row
He continues to leave his mark on his discipline. By winning the 74th edition of the Italian Grand Prix on Sunday at Monza, Max Verstappen scored a tenth consecutive success, a first in the history of Formula 1. A few days following equaling, at home in Zandvoort, Sebastian Vettel , he this time erased the German from the shelves with his 47th career success, and widened his lead at the top of a championship which seems more than ever promised to him (+145).
For once, Max Verstappen took victory from second position on the grid, beaten in qualifying by Carlos Sainz. But in the race, nothing resisted the Dutch driver, who recovered the lead at the end of the 15th lap and took his Red Bull to the checkered flag. “I never thought it was possible, it’s a lot of work”he appreciated regarding his performance just before stepping on the podium.
US Open: no French in the second week for the third consecutive Grand Slam
It is a course that continues to elude the French. Last engaged in the third round of the US Open, Clara Burel and Arthur Rinderknech were beaten in New York on Saturday night, respectively once morest Aryna Sabalenka (6-1, 6-1) and Andrey Rublev (3-6, 6 -3, 6-1, 7-5). With these eliminations, there are already no more Habs in singles contention at Flushing Meadows before the start of the famous second week.
A bad trend that turns into the usual, since the 2023 edition of the New York tournament is the third Grand Slam tournament in a row without any French in the second week. This year, only Caroline Garcia saves the balance sheet, with an eighth-final at the Australian Open. Worse, of the last eleven Majors, only two Tricolores have passed the third round in the men’s draw (Gaël Monfils at the Australian Open 2022 and Corentin Moutet at the US Open 2022).
