F1 roared back to life in May, with Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli leading the championship charge. The prospect of a new champion is exciting, but F1's 2026 season — built around brand new regulations — is proving to be challenging, with drivers and hardcore viewers alike complaining that the racing, while exciting, feels “artifcial”. Instead of going flat out, drivers now have to manage and harvest energy, with the 50-50 split between the conventional internal combustion engine and the electric system proving to be one of many challenges. Racing driver Jazeman Jaafar drops by to share his thoughts on the new F1 regulations, and whether they have taken the fun out of racing at the highest level.Image Credit: Motorsport Photography F1 / Shutterstock.com

Thomas & Uber Cup 2026 Preview: Is This Our Year?

The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) is doing its best to ensure our preparation for this year's Thomas and Uber Cup is as thorough as possible, with a centralised training camp held in Herning, Denmark ahead of the tournament — an approach that's slightly different from usual. With a stable doubles lineup, the Thomas Cup squad is banking on an out-of-form Lee Zii Jia to step up as the team's talisman, while the Uber Cup team has to soldier on without Pearly Tan, who was ruled out of the tournament with a back injury. Despite these challenges, will we finally end our drought at this prestigious tournament? Joining us to break down our Thomas and Uber Cup preparations is Ajitpal Singh, Sports Editor at the New Straits Times.Image Credit: ZCOOL HelloRF / Shutterstock.com
