The sports world witnessed a mix of excitement and disappointment over the weekend, with various teams and athletes experiencing highs and lows across different disciplines.
What Happened
England's rugby team suffered a last-gasp defeat to France in Paris, marking their worst Six Nations campaign in history. Despite a strong start, England's performance was not enough to secure a win, leaving them with only one victory in the tournament.
In Formula One, Kimi Antonelli secured his first win of the season at the Chinese Grand Prix, leading a 1-2 finish for Mercedes. However, McLaren's Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris were unable to start the race due to power unit-related issues.
Meanwhile, in the world of football, Real Madrid are reportedly open to listening to offers for midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, with several Premier League clubs showing interest.
