That is far closer than F1 has ever been-- many long time fans can keep in mind the days when the space between first and second on the grid may be more than a 2nd. And the factor is also why overtaking has ended up being harder, regardless of aerodynamic rules implied to make passing simpler ... That is far closer than F1 has ever beenmany longtime fans can keep in mind the days when the gap in between very first and 2nd on the grid may be more than a 2nd. And the factor is likewise why overtaking has ended up being harder, in spite of aerodynamic guidelines implied to make passing easier.Over the years, F1's technical rules have ended up being significantly authoritative, and the present set is quite stiff in terms of how a cars and truck mustbe designed. Even something like weight balance front-to-rear is securely managed, and after four years of the same rulebook, the groups have actually all gotten a good adequate manage on things that the distinction comes down to the finest of margins.Those last couple of milliseconds are discovered in clean air. Following in somebody's wake isn't anything like the issue it used to be in regards to losing front downforce, but it's still worse than it remained in 2022 or 2023. Throughout practice, it appeared like McLaren's car was much faster than anybody else's, but Piastri just lined up 2nd, and Norris needed to begin 10th after trashing early in Q3. At turn 1, Piastri got together with Verstappen, then made it cleanly to the pinnacle. Rather than concede the location and stay within the track limitations, Verstappen selected to stumble upon the painted surface area that's out of bounds, using it to get a 2nd or more on the orange automobile behind him. Piastri made the corner; Verstappen did not. Credit: Clive Rose - Formula 1/Formula 1 through Getty Images Although lap 1, turn 1 occurrences are treated more leniently by the stewards than the remainder of the race, Verstappen's actions (and his failure to yield the place back to Piastri) earned him a five-second penalty, which all but ensured Piastri the win after the obligatory tire-changing rest stop had actually cycled through.5 be29f2681bad36a5b39a78ce8f0ac3f

Trump can&t keep China from getting AI chips, TSMC suggestsTrump can’t keep China from getting AI chips, TSMC suggests

"Despite TSMC’s best efforts to comply with all relevant export control and sanctions laws and regulations, there is no assurance that its business activities will not be found incompliant with export control laws and regulations," TSMC said.

Further, "if TSMC or TSMC’s business partners fail to obtain appropriate import, export or re-export licenses or permits or are found to have violated applicable export control or sanctions laws, TSMC may also be adversely affected, through reputational harm as well as other negative consequences, including government investigations and penalties resulting from relevant legal proceedings," TSMC warned.

that, so far, the company appears "somewhat tariff-proof." However, all of that could be changing fast, as "US President Donald Trump announced in 2025 an intention to impose more expansive tariffs on imports into the United States," TSMC said. ....
