50 lots of sport for you, and we're starting with formula 1, where lewis hamilton rolled back the years at silverstone to win this weekend's british grand prix, his first race victory for two and a half years. and he becomes the only driver to have won nine times at the same track. ben croucher reports. a great drive from a great british driver, in a race that had pain, rain and champagne. it all owed in no small part to the great british summer. hamilton started second, behind george russell. mercedes controlled the early part of the race. but as the conditions turned, lando norris surged ahead. it wasn't all great for the brits — no hint of irony as a water system issue ended russell's race. and when the rain abated, norris waited one lap longer

than hamilton to put dry tyres on with immediate consequences. hamilton into the lead — and no stopping him claiming a record ninth british grand prix. 2.5 years since his last win and some fresh waterworks flowing. thank you so much, guys! it means a lot to get this one. to him and a few thousand soggy but satisfied spectators, you suspect. ben croucher, bbc news. this is my last race here at the british grand prix with this team, so i wanted to win this so much for them, because i love them, i appreciate them so much, all the hard work they've been putting in all over these yea rs. i'm forever grateful to everyone in this team, everyone at mercedes and all of our partners, and then otherwise to all our incredible fans. i could see you lap by lap as i was coming around, and there's just no greater feeling as to finish at the front here. next to wimbledon, where it's been a very busy middle sunday, and plenty of shocks,

including coco gauff, who was the highest seed left in the women's tournament, but she is now out in the last 16. once again failing to reach the quarterfinals, this time the number two seed was beaten in straight sets by fellow american emma navarro on centre court. wimbledon is the only grand slam at which gauff — so good on hard courts and clay — hasn't reached the last eight. meanwhile, it also wasn't to be for britain's emma raducanu. seemingly back to her best, the former us open champion lost to a qualifier today. but in the men's draw, spain's carlos alcaraz is still on course to defend his singles title. chetan pathak reports from wimbledon. not for the first time, carlos alcaraz had a scare at these championships, and yet again he found a way to win. targeting back—to—back titles, the spanish third seed made a strong start, dealing with the threat of left—hander hugo humbert to take a two—set lead. but the frenchman took

charge of the third, as alcaraz�*s level dropped, winning it 6—1. the defending champion wasn't down for long, though. it might�*ve been tense, but he saw the match out in four sets. jannik sinner, the top seed and the world number one, is quietly and efficiently getting his work done as he targets a first wimbledon title. he had few problems against ben shelton early on, who had three five—set matches going into this one. the american is one of the most exciting players on the tour and took sinner to a tie—break in the third, but ultimately the italian came through in straight sets to reach the quarterfinals for another year, where he'll play daniil medvedev after his opponent, grigor dimitrov, had to retire in their first set. forjasmine paolini, this is a summer to remember. the italian reached the french open final only last month, and now she's into her first wimbledon quarterfinal. how lucky she must feel, because this match was on the racket of her opponent, madison keys, the american 5—2 up in the deciding set and seemingly heading for victory when she appeared

to injure her leg. she tried to continue and received treatment off the court before returning, but at 5—5 retired in tears — cruelly denied a place in the last eight. and if anyone knows what players who came through qualifying are capable of, it's britain's emma raducanu. she herself came from nowhere in 2021 to win the us open, and now her wimbledon has been ended by a qualifier, lulu sun from new zealand. at only her second grand slam, the 23—year—old started brightly, winning the first set with ease. raducanu levelled the match but then slipped at the start of the third. after a medical timeout, she wasn't quite the same, while sun maintained her aggression and focus for a famous win. and if so, in an unexpected quarterfinal, lulu sun will play croatia's donna vekic, who knocked out paula badosa. on monday, the fourth round matches continue, with former champions novak djokovic and elena rybakina

eyeing the quarterfinals. chetan pathak there, reporting for us from wimbledon. and just one other story from there because one of the most decorated players in wheelchair tennis, esthervergeer, has been awarded the itf�*s philippe chartrier award for her contribution to the sport. vergeer, who's dutch, won 21 grand slam titles and was presented with the award at a ceremony in london. she spoke to chetan about what it means to her. it's the biggest honour you can get from the itf, so it's very special to receive that award and to be named in the same names as rod laver and justine henin. yeah, it's wonderful. and it's an honour because they recognise all the effort that i put in tennis, and it's a sport that we all love, so that's why it's so special. these numbers, esther, are staggering — 668 consecutive weeks ranked number one in the world, 169 singles titles, 136 doubles titles, 21 grand slam singles, 20 grand slam doubles,

23 european championships titles, seven paralympic gold medals. it's an extraordinary career. it's probably an unfair question for me to ask you — what stands out for you amidst all of that? is there a most special memory for you? well, i believe, i mean, i go way back and i've seen the game develop, and i was there when wheelchair tennis was first integrated into the grand slams, which was very special. but for me, maybe, the most special match was probably the gold—medal match in beijing. i was a match point down, and eventually i turned it around and actually won the gold medal, so i guess that was one of the matches that stood out most for me, but seeing the whole development of wheelchair tennis is probably what makes it so spectacular — that we started it from nothing, and now these stages that we are at, the podiums and the platforms that we get to play on, it's unbelievable. congratulations to her. now, let's move on to football. and after england and

the netherlands finalised the semi—finals line—up at the euros in dramatic fashion, let's look at the first of those games on tuesday. and it's an eye—catching match—up between three—time winners spain and the two—time champions france. there'll be a clash of styles in munich — spain have been one of the most entertaining teams in the tournament whilst france needed penalties to get through their quarterfinal against portugal and have been criticised for not scoring from open play. translation: personally, i don't care, because in the end, we are semifinalists. i don't know why we would go looking for that little bit extra now that we are in the finalfour, and now we have to all get together — including the media, and especially the french media — and move in the right direction to lift this trophy and not say that the style of play is not good, because in the end, it has been sufficient. translation: i think above all, we'll have to be very focused. as you say, when we are attacking, we'll always have

to be on our guard. they have very fast players up front and they'll want to exploit that, and i think the game will be about being very focused for 90 minutes, or however long the game lasts. oh, they're going to be great, aren't they? now, let's move on to athletics. a new record has been set in the women's high jump — after ukraine's yaroslava mahuchikh smashed the 37—year—old record at the diamond league meeting in paris. just three weeks away from the olympic games in the same city, the reigning world champion jumped two metres and ten centimetres, a centimetre higher than the previous record set in 1987 by bulgaria's stefka kostadinova — which had been one of the longest standing records in the sport of athletics. meanwhile, double olympic gold medallist faith kipyegon improved her own women's 1,500 metres world record in paris, breaking the previous time

she set last year by 700ths of a second. laura muirfinished third to set a new british record at the distance. antony turgis has won stage nine of the tour de france, a 199—kilometre route over the gravel roads around troyes, to the south—east of paris. the frenchman won the bunch sprint from a group of six riders. britain's tom pidcock was second with derek gee back in third. tadej pogacar continues to wear the overall race leader's yellow jersey. in motogp, ducati's francesco bagnaia has taken back the championship lead after winning the german grand prix at the saschenring. the reigning world champion went ahead with two laps to go after title rivaljorge martin crashed, bagnaia comfortably taking the chequered flag — waved by hollywood actor keanu reeves — for a fourth consecutive win. the italian now leads the championship by 10 points from martin. well, that's it from me. as always, there's much more on the bbc sport

website and app. but from me and the team, goodbye. hello there. sunday brought a volatile mix of weather across the uk — sunny skies one minute, thunder clouds the next, ominous—looking skies across lincolnshire through sunday afternoon. most of those showers are actually easing away and we've got clearing skies and that's going to allow those temperatures to fall away. so a chilly start to monday morning, but lots of sunshine around. however, this cloud will arrive later on in the morning. it's going to bring some rain, some of it heavy, across south—west england. the cloud gradually drifting its way steadily north into south wales and the midlands.

but further north of that, we keep the sunshine for much of the day. there will be a scattering of showers and some of these slow—moving, because the winds will remain light, and it's still a disappointingly cool story across the far north of scotland — only 12 or 13 degrees. highest values, perhaps close to the borders, of 19 degrees. a few isolated showers into northern ireland and northern england, but mostly bright skies, sunny spells coming through. so there's our showery rain, just pushing into wales in the midlands and south—east england by the end of the afternoon, so that means there's a risk of further showers to come for wimbledon, i'm afraid, for monday, maybe some thunderstorms to come for tuesday as well. the thunderstorms tuck in behind this low pressure as it continues to move its way further north during the early hours of tuesday morning. so we will start off with cloud and some heavy bursts of rain during the early hours of tuesday. and by the morning rush hour, it'll be sitting across northern england, north wales. so cloudier skies, perhaps, close to the scottish borders. not quite as cold a start

on tuesday morning. so we've got that rain to continue to drift its way northwards on tuesday, should stay largely dry for much of scotland through the day, and then behind it, a southerly wind dragging in slightly more humid air, which could trigger off a few thundery downpours as we go through the afternoon. top temperatures, around 21 degrees across england and wales, perhaps. we're looking at around 16—18 further north. that low pressure will continue to slowly ease away, and then as we go later into the week, desperately trying to build in, is this high. there is still a level of uncertainty as to whether that will do so, but hopefully as we move towards friday and into the weekend, the weather story mightjust quieten down just a touch.
