TODAY’S HIGHLIGHTS
6 PM ( ESP2) Formula 1 Racing As the pandemic-delayed 2020 Formula 1 season reaches its final few races, it’s becoming clear that it’s once again Lewis Hamilton’s series title to lose. As he and the rest of the field gear up for today’s Turkish Grand Prix, the 35-year-old Brit has a commanding lead in the points standings, which if it holds would give him his sixth championship and fourth consecutively. He’s won at Istanbul Park once, in 2010, and he’s hoping the F1’s return there after nine years proves beneficial for him.
