Former Formula One world champion Jenson Button defended McLaren driver Lando Norris after a controversial first-lap collision with teammate Oscar Piastri at the Singapore Grand Prix. Button stated Norris had no intention of making contact, and that the incident resulted from a momentary loss of rear grip after Norris clipped Max Verstappen's Red Bull while attempting to correct his car's balance. The former McLaren driver argued Piastri should acknowledge that Norris held the advantageous position in the corner.
Driver Jamie Chadwick supported Button's assessment, noting the track's extremely low grip levels forced Norris into a risky maneuver. She emphasized that Piastri may not have witnessed the complete sequence of events and that...
Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson offered positive news about Harrison Bader's status for Game 2 of the National League Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will miss at least three months after sustaining a Grade 3 turf toe injury in the Week 2 victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Burrow underwent surgery on Sept. 17, and the team projects a potential return around Week 16 on Dec. 21, but analysts question whether that timeline remains realistic for such a severe injury.
Jake Browning has assumed starting duties for the Bengals, but his inconsistent performance over the past three games has raised concerns about the offense. Head coach Zac Taylor expressed confidence in Browning's ability to lead the team, but the organization may explore veteran quarterback options if his struggles continue.
Joe Flacco, Russell Wilson, and Kirk Cousins...
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers will miss the Week 5 game against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday because of a knee injury he sustained in the season opener. The team listed Bowers as inactive after he failed to practice for two consecutive days this week, and he appeared on the injury report with a questionable designation.
Bowers participated in practice on a limited basis earlier in the week, but his status declined as game day approached. The tight end played in all previous games this season despite the injury, but the Raiders determined he could not compete at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Michael Mayer will also sit out the contest against the Colts. The absence of both tight ends creates personnel challenges for the Raiders as...
Nvidia plans to adopt microchannel cold plate technology for its Rubin Ultra artificial intelligence processors to address rising power consumption and thermal management challenges. The company contacted Asia Vital Components, a Taiwanese thermal solution provider, to develop the cooling system that directs liquid coolant through microscopic channels embedded in copper plates attached directly to processor chips.
The technology reduces thermal resistance between the processor die and cooling fluid through localized convection. Nvidia originally intended to implement microchannel cold plates with the Rubin generation, but the accelerated product timeline forced suppliers to delay the transition until Rubin Ultra.
The shift from...
Milwaukee Brewers center fielder Jackson Chourio left the National League Division Series game against the Chicago Cubs on Saturday after suffering an injury in the first inning. The team has not released specific details about the injury, but reports suggest Chourio may miss the remainder of the playoff series.
Chourio scored a run before the injury occurred. Manager Craig Counsell must adjust the lineup, and the team will rely on other outfielders to fill the void left by his absence.
The Brewers depend on Chourio's speed in the outfield, and his offensive production has been vital to the team's success this season. The loss creates pressure on teammates to perform in high-stakes postseason situations against a competitive Cubs squad.
