This week, F1 confirmed a 10-year deal to race in Rwanda. The move returns F1 to the African continent, a move that could pay major commercial dividends, but allegations of sportswashing and question marks over funding remain.

Best rock songs of the 21st century
There was a year where benzema, on his physical peak, scores 5 league goals. Immediately disqualifying
This is some of the craziest bait of all time
At the Balon D'Or and they're shining a light directly in my face it hurts so bad man why are they doing this
You don't need eight you need four. A session lager, a heavier pilsener, an ale (amber/gold/brown) and a stout. Anything else you get in bottles like the better German ales.
Very few wingers can carry the ball on the counter attack, dodge 1 tackle from a 35 y/o who isn't really a great defender anyway, then lose the ball to a corner from the first man he actually takes on, all without completing a shot or cross.
The word "elite" has lost all meaning
The idea of Jim Goodwin being sent to Baghdad is a fish out of water story too good to pass up
🚨 OFFICIAL IRAQI FA STATEMENT: “Dundee United Express Interest in Cooperation with the Iraqi Football Association
In one of the first signs of growing international engagement following the announcement of Hudl Wyscout’s official partnership with the Iraqi FA, Scottish club Dundee United have expressed their interest in establishing communication with the federation to explore opportunities for cooperation that would benefit Iraqi football and strengthen ties with Iraqi supporters.
The Scottish club, which has Iraqi players Zidane Iqbal and Dario Naamo among its ranks, has witnessed significant engagement from Iraqi fans across its official social media platforms. This has been particularly noticeable since Iraqi international Zidane Iqbal joined the club during the most recent summer transfer window, alongside growing interest in Dario Naamo following his previous call-up to the Iraqi national team.
Dundee United’s management expressed their delight at the overwhelming engagement from Iraqi supporters and the noticeable increase in Iraqi followers across the club’s social media accounts. The club also expressed interest in exploring joint ideas and initiatives that could further strengthen this relationship and make use of its growing Iraqi fanbase.
This development represents one of the positive outcomes of the Iraqi Football Association’s efforts to strengthen its international connections with football institutions and clubs worldwide. Through developing international partnerships and expanding opportunities for cooperation, the federation aims to support the future of Iraqi football and strengthen its presence on the international stage.“
Going to start one of those stupid "Guinness in Ireland is better" things but about Orangina in France, which really is better
Besides the obvious point that this is completely stupid, why doesn't it help grow the game? People don't love "markets" they love narrative and the narrative behind this matchup is super strong. Why can't that attract casuals?
Replying to @lukmac2017
If you want mlb to get bigger, you want casuals to get into it, the brewers and guardians being in the world series just doesnt help grow the game at all
You're joking....

Who cares. Not having a salary cap works in baseball right now. Also, why should the players agree to cap their earnings. They want a salary floor which is what the league wants. That is already rasing the modal average wage. The floor just limits top earners, which is silly

Rugby fans when 2nd gen immigrants representing small islands still feel a kinship with their parental home while benefitting from improved training, education, and opportunity in other richer countries as their parents intended
I'm sure there is an intention behind it but making half the capsule look like garbage licensed tat you could by from WH Smiths on discount for your 6 year old going back to school is an absolute waste.
