Tour de France 2025: stage five updates from the time trial from Caen – live

9 juillet 2025 à 15:45

An intriguing sub-plot: Still eligible for the best young rider (under-25) category, Remco Evenepoel is the odds-on favourite to win today’s stage but should the Belgian endure a rare bad day at the ITT office, there’s a decent chance Scotland’s very own Oscar Onley could take the white jersey.

Riding in only his second Tour de France, the 22-year-old from Perth is a highly commendable seventh overall on General Classification but is only 29 seconds behind Kevin Vauquelin, who is currently in possession of the garment and will have plenty of support as he rides today’s ITT on his home roads of Normandy. It’s a tall order but a big performance from Oscar (and a poor one from Remco) could see the Picnic PostNL rider wrestle the white jersey from the Frenchman’s shoulders.

Wimbledon 2025 quarter-finals: Swiatek v Samsonova, Andreeva v Bencic, Sinner and Djokovic to come – live

Mac reckons Shelton will, at some point win a major. I’d probably have lent no, but I guess given how good he already is, at 22, by the time he’s 25 he’ll be a helluva player. Other hand, he’ll not be the only one improving in that time – he’s a year younger than Sinner and ages with Alcaraz; he’ll be hoping they’re closer to the finished article than he is, an entirely fair supposition.

Back in the dubs, at 5-5 in the third, it’s mingingly tense; lovely stuff.

UK government’s deal with Google ‘dangerously naive’, say campaigners

9 juillet 2025 à 15:38

Company to provide free technology and ‘upskill’ civil servants but concerns raised over UK data being held on US servers

Google has agreed a sweeping deal with the UK government to provide free technology to the public sector from the NHS to local councils– a move campaigners have called “dangerously naive”.

The US company will be asked to “upskill” tens of thousands of civil servants in technology, including in using artificial intelligence, as part of an agreement which will not require the government to pay.
