The downfall of America's 'most hated mayor' as he sparks fresh outrage among despairing residents

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Allowing two kickoff return touchdowns and missing an extra point all in the final few minutes added up to the Washington Commanders losing a third consecutive game in excruciating fashion. The underlying reason for this slide continuing was a problem long before that. An offense led by dynamic rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels that was among the NFL's best for a long stretch of the season put up just nine points and 169 yards for the first three-plus quarters against Dallas before falling behind 20-9 and teeing off on the Cowboys' conservative defense. “We just couldn’t really get it going,” said receiver Terry McLaurin , whose lengthy touchdown with 21 seconds left masked that he had just three catches for 16 yards through three quarters. “We’ve got to find a way to start faster and sustain drives, and that’s everybody: the whole coaching staff and the offensive players just going out there and figuring out ways that we can stay on the field.” This is not a new problem for Washington, which had a season-low 242 yards in a Nov. 10 home loss to Pittsburgh and 264 yards four days later in a defeat at Philadelphia. Since returning from a rib injury that knocked him out of a game last month, Daniels has completed just under 61% of his passes, after 75.6% over his first seven professional starts. Daniels and coach Dan Quinn have insisted this isn't about injury. The coaching staff blamed a lack of adequate practice time, but a full week of it before facing the Cowboys did not solve the problem. It is now fair to wonder if opponents have seen enough film of offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury's system to figure it out. “I think teams and coordinators are going to see what other teams have success against us and try to figure out how they could incorporate that into their scheme," Daniels said after going 12 of 22 for 80 yards passing through three quarters in the Dallas game. "We’ve been in third and longer a lot these past couple games, so that’s kind of where you get into the exotic pressures and stuff like that. We’ve just got to be better on first and second downs and stay ahead of the chains.” Daniels has a point there, and it predates this losing streak. The Commanders have converted just 36% of third-down opportunities (27 for 75) over their past seven games after 52% (31 for 60) in their first five. That challenge doesn't get any easier with Tennessee coming to town Sunday. The Titans, despite being 3-8, have the second-best third-down defense in the league at 31.6%. The defense kept the Commanders in the game against Dallas, allowing just 10 points until the fourth quarter and 20 total before kickoff return touchdowns piled on to the other side of the scoreboard. Even Cooper Rush's 22-yard touchdown pass to Luke Schoonmaker with five minutes left came after a turnover that gave the Cowboys the ball at the Washington 44. The defense spending more than 35 minutes on the field certainly contributed to fatigue as play wore on. The running game that contributed to a 7-2 start has taken a hit, in part because of injuries to top back Brian Robinson Jr. The Commanders got 145 yards on the ground because Daniels had 74 on seven carries, but running backs combined for just 57. Daniels could not say how much the rushing attack stalling has contributed to the offense going stagnant. “You’ve got to be able to run the ball, keep the defense honest,” he said. "We got to execute the plays that are called in, and we didn’t do a good job of doing that.” Linebacker Frankie Luvu keeps making the case to be first-year general manager Adam Peters' best free agent signing. He and fellow offseason addition Bobby Wagner tied for a team-high eight tackles, and Luvu also knocked down three passes against Dallas. Kicker Austin Seibert going wide left on the point-after attempt that would have tied the score with 21 seconds left was his third miss of the game. He also was short on a 51-yard field goal attempt and wide left on an earlier extra point. Seibert, signed a week into the season after Cade York struggled in the opener, made 25 of 27 field goal tries and was 22 of 22 on extra points before injuring his right hip and missing the previous two games. He brushed off his health and the low snap from Tyler Ott while taking responsibility for not connecting. “I made the decision to play, and here we are,” Seibert said. “I just wasn’t striking it well. But it means a lot to me to be here with these guys, so I just want to put my best foot moving forward.” Robinson's sprained ankle and fellow running back Austin Ekeler's concussion from a late kickoff return that led to him being hospitalized for further evaluation are two major immediate concerns. Quinn said Monday that Ekeler and starting right tackle Andrew Wylie are in concussion protocol. It's unclear if Robinson will be available against Tennessee, which could mean Chris Rodriguez Jr. getting elevated from the practice squad to split carries with Jeremy McNichols. The Commanders still have not gotten cornerback Marshon Lattimore into a game since acquiring him at the trade deadline from New Orleans. Lattimore is trying to return from a hamstring injury, and the secondary could use him against Calvin Ridley, who's coming off a 93-yard performance at Houston. 17 — Handoffs to a running back against Dallas, a significant decrease from much of the season before this losing streak. Don't overlook the Titans with the late bye week coming immediately afterward. The Commanders opened as more than a touchdown favorite, but after the results over the weekend, BetMGM Sportsbook had it as 5 1/2 points Monday. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl

During a Labour away day ahead of the last election, the party’s candidates were put through their paces as parliamentary debaters. The topic chosen, , was a deliberately intractable issue designed to test their analytical skills. Yet just months later, scores of new MPs find themselves having to make a very real decision over changing the law. “I’m genuinely the most back and forth on this that I’ve been on anything,” said one new MP who has found themselves over recent months. Like so many, with the issues so finely balanced in their mind, a single conversation can sway their thinking. “I had a conversation during the election campaign with a woman whose husband was on a [syringe] driver for 12 days,” the MP said. “I can honestly say that conversation really changed my mind and put me in the pro camp. But the challenge for the people who are pro is whether they can convince everybody that this bill is narrow enough. I don’t know what they could do prior to Friday to get that over.” All MPs are now grappling over how they will vote in Friday’s once-in-a-generation decision on the brought forward by Labour backbencher Kim Leadbeater. They talk of being bombarded with campaign material from the pro and anti campaigns, as well as being swayed by personal stories of friends, family and constituents. However, Labour MPs involved in that pre-election debate practice say it could never have prepared them for the real thing, as discussing the principle of assisted dying has given way to assessing the merits of the specific bill now before them. “The general public get to say whether they’re pro or against it as a principle,” said a Labour MP. “The MPs in the grey area now are the ones asking: ‘How would this work?’ We’re trying to think of it pragmatically.” MPs across the political divide said that there had been a large amount of lobbying in their inboxes, but they are taking very different approaches to reaching their final decisions. Some said they were talking at length to their colleagues to thrash out the issues. Others said they were keeping their thoughts to themselves. While new MPs find themselves thrown into a major ethical debate only months into their career, Friday’s free vote on the issue has been no easier for some veteran MPs. John McDonnell, the former shadow chancellor who entered parliament in 1997, said he had thought about the issue for decades – but had only very recently switched in favour of backing the bill. “I’ve been in parliament 27 years now,” he said. “This has become a recurring debate every few years. It’s a hardy perennial that comes back. “Up until now, I was unsure and opposed previous attempts at assisted dying. I was concerned, as everyone is, to make sure that we get it right and that there’s safeguards in place. “I’ve been trying to talk to as many organisations as possible. I’ve read everything that’s come into my inbox. I’ve tried to interrogate the proposals as much as possible that Kim and others put forward. And so now, for the first time, I’ve come to the view that, yes, I’ll support an assisted dying bill. I think the safeguards that Kim has put forward are pretty strong. But again, if there are other improvements that could be made, I’m open minded to looking at those. But as a matter of principle, I now think we need to move forward on it.” As it is a free vote, there are figures from the political left and right on both sides. Former Tory cabinet ministers and are among the leading advocates for a . It is also an issue that has divided politicians who have almost always agreed. McDonnell will be voting in the opposite division lobby to some of his oldest political fellow travellers on the left, including . Jeremy Corbyn has also previously indicated he will oppose assisted dying. “I haven’t spoken to either Jeremy or Diane,” he said. “I will do, but it’s not left or right. It’s a very individual position. And again, it’s only in this recent period, in the last few months, that I’ve come to the conclusion that, actually, I can’t any longer deny people that right.” Other MPs said that they and many of their colleagues had a clear instinct on the issue but wanted to show they were willing to consider all sides before casting their vote. “There are some people who feel that you’re denying them a fundamental human right versus other people who think you’re allowing people to kill themselves ,” said a Tory MP. “You get quite strong, ­visceral opinions from constituents.”TESS Daly has revealed the ‘number one hero product’ that she couldn't live without. The 55-year-old, who always looks wrinkle-free and was seen with her lookalike daughter Phoebe just a few days ago , claimed that her favourite beauty buy makes dry skin feel ‘supple and soft’.

The Strictly Come Dancing co-host revealed to Good Housekeeping that her favourite moisturiser is actually less than £7 - yes, you heard that correctly. The blonde beauty, whose real name is actually Helen , explained: “I've got really dry skin.“ “My number one hero product is the Simple Repairing Rich Cream Moisturiser, because my skin just drinks it.” Tess, who is married to Vernon Kay , 50, and mother to two teenage daughters, then added: “It’s gorgeous. “It really helps with the dryness, it makes my skin feel so supple and soft. “For me, skin looks best when it’s moisturised.” Simple's best-selling Repairing Rich Face Cream , which you can order online now from Amazon for just £6.65, has an average rating of 4.5 out of five.

SHE shines every Saturday night as she takes to the BBC ballroom to host Strictly Come Dancing – a job she’s had since the very first series in 2004. But almost two decades on, 55-year-old presenter Tess Daly has never looked better and has managed to not only keep ageing at bay, but somehow look years younger. While Tess has a naturally slim physique – she’s a former teen model who worked in New York City – she’s also found exactly what works for her. And that means that in the past twenty years, Tess, who also hosts other big BBC shows like Children in Need, has perfected the products in her make-up bag and skincare cupboard. She’s also upped her fashion game further and steps out with her skin always glowing – something that’s not just down to the infamous Strictly tan. But what does Tess. who has two daughters with fellow TV star husband Vernon Kay , swear by, and what is her skincare, diet and exercise regime really like ? WHAT SKINCARE PRODUCTS DOES TESS USE? Tess credits her mum, Sylvia, with teaching her the importance of a good skincare routine from an early age. She said in a previous interview: “When it comes to cleansing, I use micellar water with a cotton pad to take my make-up off. “I also wouldn't dream of going to bed without moisturising and in the morning I moisturise after I cleanse because dry skin as we know looks a lot more aged than moisturised, luminous-looking skin.” In the chat with Evoke, Tess also said that while her products change from time to time, she had started to use Clarins Super Restorative Day Cream, which can be bought from for £77. Other products she’s raved about in the past include Estee Lauder's Instant Refinishing Facial Exfoliating Cream, which she revealed she used a couple of times a week. The product, which costs around £44 promises to “softly buff dead skin and debris with micro-refined particles, refining texture and renewing clarity and radiance.” They add: “[The] active extracts and nutrients work to boost moisture levels, visibly softening the look of pores and wrinkles.” WHAT EXERCISE DOES TESS DO? Despite presenting the most famous dancing show on TV, Tess’ exercise regime is less ballroom and latin and more yoga and skipping. The star said she used to exercise on a more “ad-hoc” basis, before now doing it much more regularly. Her favourite exercises include yoga – particularly a class she can do at home in between working and running a busy household. She explained: “I love Yoga with Adriene on YouTube. I've tried others but I just keep going back to her because she has a solution for everything I'm feeling. "If I skip it for, say, three days in a row, I start to feel twitchy – as though I've missed doing something that's good for me. I actually feel more flexible now.” The mum-of-two has also revealed she works with a personal trainer called Sam Shaw. Between the two of them they’ve come up with a tailored fitness plan for Tess, who prefers morning Her trainer told Women’s Health: “We usually train in the morning to get her ready to take on her day with a winning mindset after smashing training.” They get stuck into a varied line-up of workouts from intermittent skipping to get her heart rate up to jumping on a mini-trampoline. And Sam said her rest days are also important, as she usually has two a week. WHAT DIET DOES TESS FOLLOW? Tess has previously opened up about following a healthy, balanced diet, full of nutritious items. After reading a book called The Food Pharmacy by Jean Carper which she picked up at a flea market in New York, Tess said she started to think about food differently. She explained: “It was all about using food as an equivalent to medicine – for example, something as basic as rubbing half a garlic clove on a piece of sourdough bread and pouring olive oil on it. “That kind of thing is brilliant for your bloodstream and your immune system.” Since, she’s adapted this for her own busy lifestyle, and opened up about the dishes she likes to rustle up for both her and her family. Speaking about what she typically has for breakfast, Tess previously told Getthegloss.com: “Sometimes I have a power smoothie or juice but mostly I like Greek yoghurt with a handful of frozen blueberries. “I microwave them and make a puree to put on top of the yoghurt. It's like having pudding for breakfast – divine – or I'll have a banana on toast with honey.” But she also revealed that the key is, you guessed it, enjoying everything in moderation. And she’ll never hold herself back if she fancies a treat. Tess added: "At the weekend, I'll cook us all a nice big veggie breakfast with lots of eggs and grilled tomatoes. Lunch is usually a sandwich – I love bread, I would never ever give that up.” For best results, simply apply as the last step of your evening skincare routine to lock in any serums and ensure your skin is perfectly plump and dewy after some much-needed beauty sleep. Tess also shared her love for the affordable cream with GetTheGloss , as she added: "I swear by overnight masks. “You just wake up feeling hydrated and plumped, especially to counteract all of the central heating at the moment." But Tess isn’t the only shopper to love this affordable buy - as many beauty enthusiasts flocked to the Amazon website to praise the cheap cream . One person said: “I am 50 years old. This is a great budget product and I use it everyday. It’s a lightweight cream but very rich in moisture. Keeps my face hydrated without the oily look “My skin is lovely and soft and it can be used after needling as it’s a repair cream. Very soothing. Recommend.” Another added: “On my third tub of this now which is rare for me as I normally don't stick with the same product long. But, this ticks all my boxes! “Excellent product for the price point, it is great for locking in any serums/products you are using and skin actually feels hydrated after use which is great especially in winter. “It is not so heavy that it feels greasy but feels very nourishing. Really can't go wrong with this!” A third commented: “I must say this facial cream is really really good. It’s a lightweight cream but very rich in moisture. Keeps my face hydrated without the oily look. “I have sensitive skin and this cream caused NO issues at all. My skin is dry (only because of the cold season) and this moisturised my skin very well. I'm happy with this product overall. Will purchase again.”How Androxgh0st rose from Mozi's ashes to become 'most prevalent malware'

With ever-advancing technologies, more and more airlines have announced that they will be introducing free WiFi for their customers in the next year or so, including, most recently, Air Canada , which will introduce free internet for its loyalty program members starting in 2025. WiFi for you, you, and you In addition to Air Canada’s announcement on December 13, when the airline said that starting in May 2025 , it would roll out a free WiFi offer to Aeroplan members starting with its short-haul fleet, several other airlines have promised customers the ability to surf the web free of charge in 2025. For example, on September 26, Air France said that it was revolutionizing its WiFi service, a move to continue its journey upmarket. From 2025, it will progressively roll out the service for Flying Blue customers. It is being enabled by Starlink’s connectivity solutions. Airlines have also expanded their WiFi services in the United States. In September, United Airlines , which currently offers free messaging and access to its website and app for all passengers, will enter the free WiFi space in 2025. Testing of the service will begin in early 2025, with the first passenger flights being deployed later during the year. airBaltic should be another carrier that will link up with Starlink to offer free WiFi across its fleet. When the Latvian airline announced that it tested the company’s internet solution in March, it said that it had been working toward acquiring the supplemental type certificate (STC) approval, resulting in the installation of the first antennas on its Airbus A220-300 aircraft in late 2024. In September, airBaltic provided an update on its progress to certify and begin equipping its fleet with Starlink antennas, saying that free in-flight internet was “coming soon.” United Airlines will offer free Starlink WiFi across its fleet starting in 2025, providing faster, more reliable internet on over 1,000 planes. Expanding connectivity Those are just some of the airlines that have promised to introduce free WiFi sometime in 2025. Others, albeit sometimes on a limited scale, have already provided the service, such as Delta Air Lines’ connectivity solution. On August 12, Delta Air Lines announced that it would begin offering free WiFi on its long-haul fleet. While the service has been available on more than 700 aircraft flying domestic itineraries, the airline has announced free internet connectivity on its long-haul network. However, the carrier emphasized that in order to ensure premium service, it was “rolling out fast, free Wi-Fi on Viasat-equipped widebody aircraft on a route-by-route basis.” Delta Air Line’s current WiFi map showed that apart from coverage across North America, customers can expect WiFi connectivity in Europe and Brazil, with no service when flying across the Pacific Ocean, including Hawaii. “Additional routes will be phased in as high-quality, reliable service becomes available. This strategy mirrors the approach taken with domestic installations in 2022.” Qatar Airways has also been slowly phasing in Starlink-offered internet services following its announcement that it would utilize the Musk-owned service in May . On December 12, the carrier began flying to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), with the first flight being operated by a Starlink-equipped Boeing 777-300ER , registered as A7-BAF. At the same time, the Qatari carrier celebrated the fact that instead of the 12 planned aircraft with WiFi connectivity, it now had 15, surpassing its roll-out target in 2024. Other airlines that recently began and have continued to implement fleet-wide free WiFi include but are not exclusive to Air New Zealand (first trials in 2024, domestic fleet-wide rollout in 2025) , Hawaii Airlines , and WestJet (since December) . Qatar Airways has added its fourteenth destination in the Americas with a new service from Doha to Toronto Blue pioneers According to Lufthansa , it was the first airline to provide internet access on long-haul aircraft worldwide in 2003. However, the service did not last long, and in 2006, after Boeing had stopped supporting its ‘Connexion by Boeing’ satellites, the German carrier ended the program. In December 2013, JetBlue announced that it would launch its free WiFi solution, marketed as Fly-Fi. At the time, the airline’s statement read that it was the first service to bring real broadband internet in the sky at the same internet speeds its passengers had been used to while browsing the web at home. In December 2023, JetBlue celebrated the tenth anniversary of Fly-Fi, reiterating that it was the first and only major US carrier to offer free WiFi on all flights. The company reflected that providing free, high-speed connectivity for aircraft flying in the air was a unique challenge in 2013. JetBlue celebrates 10 years of complimentary inflight WiFi service. The airline was the first airline to offer inflight WiFi.NoneThis article is sponsored by BaubleBar. E! may get a commission if you purchase something through our links. Learn more.

Many people assume that rinsing your plates before putting them in the dishwasher will help with the cleaning process — but those who don’t may be onto something. Turns out that while you should scrape excess food off your dishes, rinsing them can actually damage your dishwasher. Most dishwashers have built-in food sensors that identify how much is on dishes and determine how long a cycle should last, as well as what the water temperature should be. “So if you rinse the dishes off first, the dishwasher isn’t going to do as heavy of a cycle as it would otherwise,” Ian Palmer-Smith, an appliance repair expert at Domestic & General , explained to HuffPost . He added that rinsing off the dishes might cause the dishwasher not to clean it as well since the grime won’t wash away as easily. Holly Moore, founder and owner of in-home cleaning company Maids and Moore , also explained to HuffPost that the built-in sensor is a light that scans the dishes and will adjust the cycle based on how much food and grime is detected. Continuing to run the dishwasher with pre-rinsed dishes can eventually “skew the sensor’s sensitivity or result in less effective cycles in general,” she claimed. Dishwashers that were made in the last 20 years likely have a built-in sensor, but if you’re unsure, Moore said checking the user manual or the dishwasher’s settings will tell you. “Look for terms like ‘soil sensor,’ ‘auto-sensing cycle’ or ‘smart sensor technology’” in the manual, Moore said. “Dishwashers with food sensors often have an ‘auto,’ ‘sensor wash’ or ‘smart wash’ cycle. These settings indicate the dishwasher can adjust water use, temperature and cycle duration based on the dirtiness of the dishes.” On top of the food sensors, Palmer-Smith said rinsing plates is unnecessary due to dishwasher cleaners getting better at scrubbing dishes. “The enzymes in dishwasher cleaner attach themselves to food, so if you pre-rinse your dishes, it has less to attach to,” he explained. Another expert agreed with the overall sentiment last summer, telling UK “This Morning” co-host Cat Deeley that there is no point in pre-rinsing — simply scraping them first is adequate. “Rinsing is basically a waste of water, time and money,” Good Housekeeping guru Katie Mortram said. “Dishwashers are advanced enough now that they’ll basically remove all greasy residue or sauces in a single cycle anyway, so you’re just wasting time and effort [if you rinse].”UCF will attempt to shake off a dreadful offensive performance when it collides with LSU on Sunday afternoon in the third-place game of the Greenbrier Tip-Off in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va. The Knights (4-1) couldn't get anything going against No. 19 Wisconsin on Friday, going 21-for-62 from the field (33.9 percent) and just 2-for-17 from 3-point range (11.8 percent) en route to an 86-70 loss. Jordan Ivy-Curry finished with 13 points while Keyshawn Hall and Dior Johnson added 11 apiece for UCF, which never led and fell behind by as many as 23. Knights coach Johnny Dawkins is hoping that his team's struggles don't carry over into the meeting with the Tigers (4-1). "We have to do better offensively," Dawkins said. "We have to space the floor better. We have to balance our offense between our perimeter and our bigs. Those are things that we didn't do consistently (on Friday)." LSU also needs to clean things up after committing 15 turnovers in a 74-63 setback against Pitt on Friday. Tigers forward Jalen Reed doesn't believe giving the ball away will be a lingering issue. "I feel like a lot of our turnovers were more on us than them," Reed said. "I feel like a lot of the turnovers were careless, but we're a better team than that and I feel like we'll take care of the ball better moving forward." Reed and Vyctorius Miller each posted 14 points in the loss to the Panthers, with Reed also hauling in seven rebounds. Cam Carter chipped in 11 points. Carter is putting up a team-leading 16.4 points per game. Jordan Sears (12.0 points per game), Reed (11.0) and Miller (10.2) also have scoring averages in double figures. Ivy-Curry (16.8 points per game), Hall (16.2) and Darius Johnson (13.0) have been leading the way for UCF. Sunday marks the first-ever meeting between the Knights and Tigers. --Field Level MediaLAS VEGAS (AP) — Formula 1 on Monday at last said it will expand its grid in 2026 to make room for an American team that is partnered with General Motors. “As the pinnacle of motorsports, F1 demands boundary-pushing innovation and excellence. It’s an honor for General Motors and Cadillac to join the world’s premier racing series, and we’re committed to competing with passion and integrity to elevate the sport for race fans around the world," GM President Mark Reuss said. "This is a global stage for us to demonstrate GM’s engineering expertise and technology leadership at an entirely new level.” The approval ends years of wrangling that launched a U.S. Justice Department investigation into why Colorado-based Liberty Media, the commercial rights holder of F1, would not approve the team initially started by Michael Andretti. Andretti in September stepped aside from leading his namesake organization, so the 11th team will be called Cadillac F1 and be run by new Andretti Global majority owners Dan Towriss and Mark Walter. The team will use Ferrari engines its first two years until GM has a Cadillac engine built for competition in time for the 2028 season. Towriss is the the CEO and president of Group 1001 and entered motorsports via Andretti's IndyCar team when he signed on financial savings platform Gainbridge as a sponsor. Towriss is now a major part of the motorsports scene with ownership stakes in both Spire Motorsports' NASCAR team and Wayne Taylor Racing's sports car team. Walter is the chief executive of financial services firm Guggenheim Partners and the controlling owner of both the World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers and Premier League club Chelsea. “We’re excited to partner with General Motors in bringing a dynamic presence to Formula 1," Towriss said. “Together, we’re assembling a world-class team that will embody American innovation and deliver unforgettable moments to race fans around the world.” Mario Andretti, the 1978 F1 world champion, will have an ambassador role with Cadillac F1. But his son, Michael, will have no official position with the organization now that he has scaled back his involvement with Andretti Global. “The Cadillac F1 Team is made up of a strong group of people that have worked tirelessly to build an American works team,” Michael Andretti posted on social media. “I’m very proud of the hard work they have put in and congratulate all involved on this momentous next step. I will be cheering for you!” The approval has been in works for weeks but was held until after last weekend's Las Vegas Grand Prix to not overshadow the showcase event of the Liberty Media portfolio. Max Verstappen won his fourth consecutive championship in Saturday night's race, the third and final stop in the United States for the top motorsports series in the world. Grid expansion in F1 is both infrequent and often unsuccessful. Four teams were granted entries in 2010 that should have pushed the grid to 13 teams and 26 cars for the first time since 1995. One team never made it to the grid and the other three had vanished by 2017. There is only one American team on the current F1 grid — owned by California businessman Gene Haas — but it is not particularly competitive and does not field American drivers. Andretti’s dream was to field a truly American team with American drivers. The fight to add this team has been going on for three-plus years and F1 initially denied the application despite approval from F1 sanctioning body FIA . The existing 10 teams, who have no voice in the matter, also largely opposed expansion because of the dilution in prize money and the billions of dollars they’ve already invested in the series. Andretti in 2020 tried and failed to buy the existing Sauber team. From there, he applied for grid expansion and partnered with GM, the top-selling manufacturer in the United States. The inclusion of GM was championed by the FIA and president Mohammed Ben Sulayem, who said Michael Andretti’s application was the only one of seven applicants to meet all required criteria to expand F1’s current grid. “General Motors is a huge global brand and powerhouse in the OEM world and is working with impressive partners," Ben Sulayem said Monday. "I am fully supportive of the efforts made by the FIA, Formula 1, GM and the team to maintain dialogue and work towards this outcome of an agreement in principle to progress this application." Despite the FIA's acceptance of Andretti and General Motors from the start, F1 wasn't interested in Andretti — but did want GM. At one point, F1 asked GM to find another team to partner with besides Andretti. GM refused and F1 said it would revisit the Andretti application if and when Cadillac had an engine ready to compete. “Formula 1 has maintained a dialogue with General Motors, and its partners at TWG Global, regarding the viability of an entry following the commercial assessment and decision made by Formula 1 in January 2024,” F1 said in a statement. “Over the course of this year, they have achieved operational milestones and made clear their commitment to brand the 11th team GM/Cadillac, and that GM will enter as an engine supplier at a later time. Formula 1 is therefore pleased to move forward with this application process." Yet another major shift in the debate over grid expansion occurred earlier this month with the announced resignation of Liberty Media CEO Greg Maffei, who was largely believed to be one of the biggest opponents of the Andretti entry. “With Formula 1’s continued growth plans in the US, we have always believed that welcoming an impressive US brand like GM/Cadillac to the grid and GM as a future power unit supplier could bring additional value and interest to the sport," Maffei said. "We credit the leadership of General Motors and their partners with significant progress in their readiness to enter Formula 1." AP auto racing: https://apnews.com/hub/auto-racing
