northern ireland, scotland and wales all have qualifiers tomorrow. northern ireland have won their first three so far. michael o'neill's men are away to belarus and need to rack up the points as they play germany and the netherlands in the autumn... we will cover the assumption that it drops against belarus and we have also, it takes us a while and we have a huge game to look forward to and that is the task list at the players up for and we put ourselves up players up for and we put ourselves up in players up for and we put ourselves upina players up for and we put ourselves up in a strong position. scotland have a difficult task, away to belgium, currently the world's top ranked side. steve clarke's reign as manager got off to a winning start as his side beat cyprus at hampden on saturday. wales are third in their group and play leaders hungary in budapest. there will be 3 thousand seats shut off after hungary were punished by uefa for racist chating and vandalism during the game with slovakia in march.

i have talked to them about it before, sanctions on racism should before, sanctions on racism should be stronger, and for me, it is all about concentrating on the game. i have enough to worry about with the game and winning this game and yeah, we hope that all of the fans behave. as always, and all of the games, properly and how they should. ferrari are appealing the penalty handed to sebastian vettel that saw him demoted from first to second at the canadian grand prix. they have four days to gather evidence to back their case which has divided opinion across the sport. our reporterjoe lynskey has more. this is an overview of the incident which has split opinion across formula i this weekend. it cost sebastian his first grand prix victory of the season. the german

had led front poll until 38 laps and, at the montreal grand prix when he reached the turn three and four, as he came there, he veered off the track and drifted back on and impeded the path of the britton lewis hamilton who have to break and retreat at that point. he went on to ci’oss retreat at that point. he went on to cross the finish line in first place but immediately was announced that he will be given a five second penalty and hamilton who came in second, was given the race title. that was not awkward enough, vettel let everyone know how he was feeling by going and putting the number one board from where hamilton possible his car was to wear his empty bay where his car should've been at that point. clearly, not happy with that five second penalty is given by the judges. these are rules and para meters judges. these are rules and parameters that the judges are working with in the incidents like this. in formula i.

working with in the incidents like this. in formula 1. there is a lot of subjectivity about it, the way it is worded but effectively, that should a car leave the track it may rejoin, but only when it is safe to do so and without gaining a lasting advantage. as you can imagine, plenty of chatter on social media from formula i commentators today, but many in support of vettel and perhaps a harsh punishment for the former champion. more recent champion, speaking on his youtube channel. after you return safely and if you have not done that safely, thatis if you have not done that safely, that is it, the penalty is deserved. it is not an invalid excuse, i was out of control, i had 30 tires and i cannot see lewis. but the penalty is fully deserved. coming out in support of the stuarts, for rer appealing the decision and from our

perspective, vettel could not have done anything else but this is all been more emotionally charged for the driver because of the difficulties he's had now for some months. he could see he is already a long way off the pace and the driver standing in the title race that is now becoming a two horse race between the two mercedes drivers who have absolutely dominated. on the two of the seven racers the season have not been a mercedes one two. and it will ultimately go down as a mistake from him and the ferrari driver has not run a race since august of last year. —— one. —— won. lets turn our attnetions to cricket where west indies and south africa had to settle for a point apiece after their world cup game was abandoned earlier today. only seven and half overs were bowled. sheldon cottrell took the two early wickets of hashim amla and aiden markram. south africa were 29 for two when rain stopped play and the game was eventually called off. south africa have just a point

and probably have to win their 5 remaining matches to qualify for the semi finals. we are in this position because we have not played our best game. so we do not deserve to be at the top. it is very clear for us as a team, we need to be on our best and play well in the next five games. which is also a dangerous team, they have shown that they can on any day, we have to start playing better and more consistent and more solid cricket. if we do and the results start one by one, this team will get a lot of from the later stages. the next game is against west indies on friday. england's next game is against west indies on friday— where plenty of attention will be on barbados—born england fast bowlerjofra archer. his performances so far have led some to suggest he should be in the test team for the ashes this summer. but legendary former west indian fast bowler sir curtly ambrose told bbc radio five live's tuffers and vaughan show that it isn't

always easy to excel in the longer form of the game. iamjust i am just wondering, about his longevity and in five days, we will know every boulder in their hampton ball, the second spell, but i'm just asking the question, you have seen a more than me, does he have it at four o'clock in the afternoon, comment and do something special, does he have it? wicketkeeperjos buttler is said to be "responding well to treatment" on a hip injury. he suffered "heavy bruising" while batting and did not take to the field in saturday's win over bangladesh. england said buttler will train with the squad on wednesday and will be "reassessed later this week". chris froome and simon yates have begun to move towards the leaders in the criterium du dauphine', a warm—up to the tour de france. froome moved up to eighth in the general classification with fellow briton yates in tenth, after stage two was won

by overall leader dylan teuns. belgium's jolien d'hoore has won the opening stage of the women's tour for the second successive year. last year she crossed the line first at southwold, and now she's won in stowmarket. eleanor dickinson was the leading british riderfinishing in 12th. that's all from sportsday. coming up in a moment, the papers.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are katy balls, who's the deputy political editor at the spectator, and the political commentator, lance price. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. let's start with the financial times, which leads on the tory leadership race — it claims borisjohnson remains the frontrunner, butjeremy hunt's campaign is gaining momentum. "the gloves are off" — so says the metro, which focuses on another leadership hopeful, michael gove, and his criticism of his rival borisjohnson. the same story makes the front page of the telegraph. it says mr gove is being accused of "desperation", with his attack on borisjohnson seen as an attempt to deflect questions over his past cocaine use. the guardian leads on mr gove's pledge to govern for "overlooked families and undervalued communities" — as he insists he can still win. a different story in the i. it reports on the bbc‘s announcement, that free tv licences for more than three and a half million pensioners are being scrapped.

and the daily mail claims there's a backlash over that new ruling, which comes into force nextjune. so, a varied set of front pages, but the race to number 10 dominates most of them — let's see what our reviewers make of it all. let's start with the tory leadership race. you have been sharing some of these with the various contenders. so, tim tore his left, there were 11 andi so, tim tore his left, there were 11 and i was down to ten already,. last week, this week it has been where the contest gets serious and where you have more official postings and today we have this deadline for any candidate who wants to enter the race to show that they have enough support in the 1922 committee of conservative backbenchers have changed the rules because there are so changed the rules because there are so many candidates entering the race. at one point, yet 13 and looked like he would be to more than

that. eight mps behind them, some have not got that number, so we have ten candidates overall and what will happen is, they have postings on tuesday and wednesday night, behind closed doors and on thursday, we have our first secret ballot where conservative mps will vote and whoever does not manage to meet the highest threshold, which is around 16 mp5. highest threshold, which is around 16 mps. they will be knocked out. and it will get whittled down and i think, in theory by the end of next week, we should know who the final two are based on the membership. week, we should know who the final two are based on the membershipm looks like boris johnson two are based on the membershipm looks like borisjohnson is very much the front runner, the one who,. especially with the endorsements that he has
