Miami Grand Prix: Max Verstappen’s statement win Max Verstappen showed his dominance over Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez by winning the Miami Grand Prix from ninth place on the grid. Verstappen’s victory was all the more impressive because he easily overtook Perez in just 14 laps and extended his lead over him even after his pit stop. Christian Horner, Red Bull team principal, praised Verstappen’s “absolutely outstanding performance.” Meanwhile, Perez struggled with his medium tires in the opening stint and couldn’t build the advantage he needed to stay ahead of Verstappen. He also pushed too hard in his second stint…

The royal bopping got everyone talking at the Coronation concert.

Coronation Concert review – a cobbled-together bunch of B-listers On Thursday night, Channel 4 News interviewed Jerub, the Nottingham-based singer tapped to perform with Pete Tong’s Ibiza Classics Orchestra at the Coronation Concert. It wasn’t entirely clear if presenter Matt Frei intended to strike a note of bathos in his introduction, but it certainly turned out that way. The 24-year-old was currently largely unknown, he explained to viewers, but on Sunday, all that would change: Jerub would be performing on the same hallowed stage as huge stars, including Olly Murs. Here was more evidence that things hadn’t panned out quite…

David de Gea’s costly mistake raises questions about his future David de Gea’s future at Manchester United is in doubt following a crucial mistake that gifted a goal to West Ham’s Said Benrahma, damaging Man Utd’s chance of finishing in the top four of the Premier League. The 32-year-old goalkeeper has now made four errors that led to a goal in all competitions this season, the same as Hugo Lloris. Although De Gea had previously said that his contract talks at Old Trafford would “end in a good way” and he was “enjoying it,” this latest error could negatively affect…

His luck has run out (Picture: Derbyshire RPU/SWNS)

A pensioner’s luck has finally run out as his car was stopped and it was discovered he’d been driving without a licence for 50 years.

Officers from the Derbyshire Police road policing unit pulled the car over for several offences in Derby on Saturday, May 6.

They then discovered the 69-year-old driver had never passed his test or possessed a driving licence, meaning he had been driving illegally for five decades.

He’d been tricking car insurance companies into thinking he had a licence the entire time – and had apparently been bragging about his long-running scam, which led to his downfall.

A statement from the unit shared on Twitter said: ‘The driver of this vehicle has never passed a test despite being 69 years old and having been driving for over 50 years.

‘He has systematically provided details to insurance companies indicating that he had a licence but the flaw in his dastardly plan was bragging.

‘His long reign came to an abrupt end once we found out. Vehicle seized and driver reported for numerous offences.’

Paul Farley, of the Motor Insurers’ Bureau, commented: ‘Finally, brought a totally unacceptable reign to an end.

‘The bit he was missing was had he been involved in a collision and we paid out on a claim, we would’ve come back to him for the total cost of that claim.’

The statement has drawn mixed reactions, with some questioning how the driver managed to get away with it for 50 years.

Steve said: ‘It’s not a good look for the system, he’s managed to carry out his entire life without being caught before, even in todays ANPR world he’s evaded the system for years. Sadly, this one may encourage other chancers as odds of being caught are low.’

In contrast, Joe said: ‘Probably a far better driver than many road users, he’s avoided the police for 50 years… the UK would benefit from having more drivers like this on the road!’
