Kasia Niewiadoma on Sunday clinched the 2024 Tour de France title by just four seconds, the narrowest margin in the history of either the men's or women's race, holding off a late attack from Demi Vollering. The thrilling finish at the iconic Alpe d'Huez saw Niewiadoma survive a late charge from the defending champion Vollering, who trailed the Pole by 1:15 entering the final day of the Tour. Vollering began her charge roughly 25 miles from the finish line, on the steepest slopes of the Col du Glandon, and at one point claimed the virtual yellow jersey lead of 1:27 over Niewiadoma.

RB technical director Jody Egginton says the team will bring minor updates to the Dutch Grand Prix to try and continue its points run following the summer break. A scoreless first two races of the season has been followed by a run of points from all but two of the rounds for RB since, including four straight top tens leading into August. From that run, however, only in Hungary did it lead the pack behind the top four teams, with Aston Martin, Haas, Alpine and Williams all having outscored RB in the other races, and Egginton says upgrades are required due to how competitive the field is.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
