now that race is set to take place in hanoi — and despite the city being just a hundred miles from the chinese border — formula one bosses say they expect the grand prix to go ahead. well both races were big talking points at the mclaren car launch this afternoon in woking. and our sports news reporter, laura scott, was there for us. today here at mclaren‘s base, it was all about their new car, which they hope will lead mclaren back to the front of the grade but there was no expecting —— escaping the issue of coronavirus. i will go where formula 1 coronavirus. i will go where formula i tells me to go because i have full belief that they will make the right decision and they have probably done with china or vietnam, if it gets postponed i am sure they will take the right decision. and if my family wa nts to the right decision. and if my family wants to come i will welcome them. right now we have not had any communication that the vietnam race

is at risk, we know it is close to china so it is on the radar and are monitoring the situation. we help the grand prix because he had, the first year of the grand prix so everyone is quite excited but people's health and safety person we have to see how things play out. with less than a week to go with pre—testing and barcelona but the next month and everyone here and formula i as a whole is ready for the first lights out of 2020 but with a sport that crisscrosses the globe there is ongoing uncertainty on the virus‘s impact on the season ahead. laura scott there at the unveiling of mcclaren‘s new car... well this new fi season was set to be a record—breaking one, with 22 races for the very first time. but unlike the sevens events that i mentioned earlier, with an already packed schedule and the logistics that go into each race, it looks unlikely that the chinese grand prix will be rescheduled. so, in terms of the vietnamese one, olly, they'll be desperate not to lose another.

they certainly will be stopping at many things with the latest on the sports events being affected by the coronavirus. still to come on sports day for you... shame in the game, the documentry that looks at the rise in hate crime, we hearfrom a player who was abused this season. england's cricketers are in durban ahead of the second t20 match against south africa tomorrow. they lost the first one. by by one run. chrisjordan‘s bullying was one of the highlights. but they fell short in their own run chase. it isa fell short in their own run chase. it is a game where one run you can look at so many phases and situations in the game where you could have slightly done a better. and to me it is not... sometimes they can be pointless really because thatis

they can be pointless really because that is the nature of t20 cricket, it is high risk cricket and everyone is on edge. so things can go and they can't. it is important to state nice and level mentally. have a honest assessment of your own performance and then try to give maybe ten or 20% more next game. nine of the world's top ten golfers are in action at the genesis invitational in californiagenesis invitational, where former us openchampion webb simpson is the only member of the world's top ten not competing ina star—studded event hosted by tiger woods at riviera. here is our golf correspondent. it is so tight at top of the world rankings, and he just is so tight at top of the world rankings, and hejust returned is so tight at top of the world rankings, and he just returned this week and now you have mcelroy back at the top for the first time since september 2015. a little bit of flex at the very top there and the one person we had not mentioned of course is tiger woods who is

friendly and the world plus my top ten, the defending champion at the masters and he is the host for this tournament in los angeles as well. very proud so to do and looking to win at los angeles which he considers his home turned in and in many respects. it is depressed when he played on the pga tour back when he played on the pga tour back when he was a 16—year—old. he never got on with the greens there but he would love come sunday night talking about a priest victory on the riviera course. england's jodi ewart shadoff is top of the leaderboard after a brilliant opening round at the women's australian open. the 32 year old shot a bogey free round of seven—under—par at adelaide royal. ewart shadoff led at the same stage last year but eventually finished eighth. she's one shot clear of the south korean pair inbee park and jeong—eun lee, park with this incredible shot for an eagle on the first hole. fallon sherrock lit up the pdc world darts championship last december, she was the first woman to beat a man at the tournament

and she reached the third round. she's going to make more darts history tonight, the first woman to play in the premier league series when she faces glen durant in nottingham. it's been a life changing couple of months for her. and has definitely been different from what i am normally used too. i have a lot of exhibition work and a lot of the interviews, and has been very busy. i get recognised in the street a lot more now and i am loving every minute of it. the fact that i get to premier bell playing the premier league is awesome, i have been watching it for the last couple of years and i am a challenger, it is amazing. i have had a great experience so far and everything that i have done has helped me a lot with experience and special stages and things like that. iam hoping special stages and things like that. i am hoping i am special stages and things like that. iam hoping i am helping special stages and things like that. i am hoping i am helping women and sport because and darts we played the men and all that so i am quite happy that i am on the mac breaking

the barrier. it seems that barely a week goes by without reports of racist or homophobic incidents at football matches, a teenage bournemouth fan was banned from attending games for three years last week. shame in the game, that you can watch now on the iplayer, looks at the rise of hate crimes in football through the eyes of those that have been abused, in a moment we'll hear from the dover atheltic striker, inih effiong, about what he had to go through at hartlepool last november but first here's a taster of the bbc3 documentary. why as a black guy playing angle. that monkey. as ijumped up, i

heard... racism is something that permeates every single level of english football. it is happening again and again and again and nothing is changing. during the game while i was down there and obviously, just saying boo and stuff like that and there was nothing major until i had a penalty which they thought was not a penalty. i stuck in the right hand corner and they started saying do and then obviously i wasjust they started saying do and then obviously i was just doing that to than. and man that is when the racial abuse it started, walking back and looking towards the direction and cupped my ear and that is whenl direction and cupped my ear and that is when i heard the racist abuse. had that happen before? and never

happened to me before and that aspect and it affect me quite bad during the game. and they said if we wanted to walk off, we did not want to go back out there so we wanted to make sure we doubt the result but it was brutal because everyone was affected at half—time and could still not believe what happened. and it left a sickening taste in my mouth to be honest. we hear it is on the rise, something like 66% increase in reported hate crimes, be it homophobic or racist. what is going on across the board, you are a well—traveled footballer and you have done a dozen clubs?” well—traveled footballer and you have done a dozen clubs? i got it would get better of the years but it seemed to have gotten worse because there is less punishment and people see is that they will not care. they will threaten players on the page to

get a result for the other team and punishment is minimal if any things that people are favourite nowadays but it will get to the point where the punishment, someone is going to jump the punishment, someone is going to jump from the crowd and take it into their own hands. that is the only way that could possibly see a change in something happening because the vine that currently pull was nothing we got for the peace we got on the paycheque. it was quite shocking. the dover athletic striker speaking to me on their racist abuse he had to me on their racist abuse he had to put up with this season. a few years ago charlotte worthington was working as a chef in a mexican restuarant in manchester and riding her bmx for fun. in tokyo this summer she'll be britain's best medal hope in the new olympic sport of freestyle bmx. stuart pollitt reports from the kitchen to the heat of

0lympic competition, she is writing herself into contention for a metal and tokyo. her sporting career started as a hobby. real basic equipment and local skate park and just go out and ta ke local skate park and just go out and take some risks and enjoy yourself. i personally started writing skaters for many years and it was up until three years ago that i actually made a pledge to ride bmx. she was working as a shaft around manchester and writing here on her days off until two years ago when the sport's inclusion in tokyo meant she could quit full—time. inclusion in tokyo meant she could quit full-time. the best in the world get up at 6am and hit the jam hired and trained all day. pressure is on for great britain. this is not just a chance to be in tokyo, it is an opportunity to raise the profile of what they do and counter credit ta kes of what they do and counter credit takes who say this is not an olympic

sport. there is a stigma that bmx is all very relaxed and we are not taking this as a professional sport but we changed our diet and habits and train hard because this is a dangerous part and you need to be fit and healthy to do it. i am definitely able to get a medal, i think the boys and girls team are capable of getting metals and tokyo 2020. and current form, she has all the ingredients needed for a success. just a quick reminder of our top story, 8 months after getting thrown out of australian rugby for making hompohobic comments online, israel folau is set to make his competitive return this weekend. he's in the catalans dragons squad for the first time, they face castleford at home in superleague that's all from sportsday. from me and the rest of their team, goodbye for now.

hello there things are much more u nsettled hello there things are much more unsettled this weekend with the next named storm arriving on saturday. before we reach that point, the range of high pressure will continue behind thursday's area of low pressure and it will settle things down overnight. lighter winds and clear skies and a perfect recipe for turning colder and especially across the north where it is snow. elsewhere there will be icy patches around and mist and fog to greet. the next area of low pressure sweeping and through the day and wet and windy weather reaching central areas but not reaching the southeast until after dark. windy with scales and further heavy blustery showers in the northwest. into the weekend storm dennis will arrive and we will see very heavy rain and southwestern

parts of britain and amber warnings and force for this but had online to check out all the warnings in detail.

you're watching beyond one hundred days. borisjohnson gave his most senior minister an ultimatum, sack your advisors, keep yourjob. it was too much for savid javid. he has gone, replaced by rishi sunak, once his protege at the treasury. it was a power grab by number 10 with no room for dissenting voices. sajid javid said he couldn't sign up to borisjohnson‘s plan for a joint economic unit, nor would he betray his advisers. i was unable to accept those conditions. i don't believe any self—respecting minister would accept such conditions and so therefore, i felt the best thing to do was to go. two long weeks of confinement. 83 british people who were quarantined after returning from china are finally released to go home.
