Keanu Reeves ditches Aston Martin for Ferrari as Carlos Sainz takes British GP pole
A qualifying session that started badly for Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves ended on a high as Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz took his first-ever pole position at the British Grand Prix. The star of John Wick and The Matrix is a big motorsport fan and is at Silverstone as part of a fact-finding mission. Reeves is making a documentary about the Brawn GP team, which famously won the F1 title with Jenson Button in 2009, having almost gone out of business when Honda pulled out of the sport the previous year. The 57-year-old has been spotted all over the paddock and is being hosted by Ross Brawn, F1’s managing director, who saved and then led the Brawn team during that 2009 season before it was bought by Mercedes.

‘No ideas, no energy and now no excuses for utterly deluded Boris Johnson’
Cringeing self-pity is added to lying, lawbreaking, incompetence, venality and indecency on Boris Johnson’s charge sheet.

Talk of a second and third election victory, remaining PM until the mid-2030s, are fantasy from a serial liar.
