formula one now and racing point driver lance stroll says he tested positive for coronavirus after the eifel grand prix weekend in germany, despite his team not reporting his illness. stroll did not race and has since tested negative. earlier, i spoke to our racing correspondentjennie gow and asked her if racing point should have reported stroll‘s symptoms? it is interesting that every since russia he has been family has not been feeling well and he was tested multiple times and that is the thing i think that is of relevancy. he was tested before he got to the grand prix and it all came back negative so prix and it all came back negative so racing did everything they believe they should have done and they say they did everything they should have been done and it seems there was an anomaly in the testing process and when lance flew home

to switzerland on a private plane on sunday morning he took another test and that is the test that showed he was actually covid—19 positive so it's a very strange lead up of events that took place in his cove a positive taking place and ten days that he had to self—isolate and that is up and over i'm coming back to race this weekend. does that mean they would face any retrospective action? they said there is no further action to be addressed from racing point and raising point have issued their own statement is the ceo and the team principal and the faa have also said that they are going to change the testing procedure to make sure all personnel are required to be tested on sites before being allowed entry to the paddock but that seems to be the end of the matter as far

as they're concerned. for the first time ever, there will be more women's medals up for grabs than mens in a major multi—sports event. the 2022 commonwealth games in birmingham will be broadcast by the bbc and the event will also have the largest commonwealth para—sport programme. joining us now is president of the commonwealth games federation, dame louise martin. 2 more female medals, than the mens, very positive when it comes to inspiring young girls. how has that come about? jonathan browning resigned from the board because of — what he called — a culture of overpromising and under—delivering. what concerns does that raise for you about birmingham 2022? para —sports programme will be expanded to include wheelchair basketball and additions to athletics and swimming. can you explain how much that will mean to some para athletes? to my female metals bound the man, obviously very positive impact for young viewers watching. how did that come about? i would love to see that it was planned. it was not. it wasjust happenstance. we have been working on winning spite and getting more women involved and making sure that we have the same event as the man and when when they bid for the games the then asked for extra sports to come and play evening than

we did not think about it because the main calendar did not allow them to compete at the same time so there was wheelchair basketball coming in and lena and men and women actually realise we have got more women than men and two it destiny is even better and i must say it was not planned but and an i thinkjust the same. very inspirational to young girls watching. there have been a few issues with burning on as i'm sure you're well aware, jonathan resigned from the boy because of what he called a culture of overpromising and under delivering. what concerns does not raise for you? for me it is not raise any

concerns because as a federation we have a coordination commission that go in have a coordination commission that goina have a coordination commission that go in a couple times a year to work with birmingham and begets regular reports and we know exactly what's happening and as far as they're concerned they're working very hard. yes we had to work as proven and had one or two issues but there only plan b in place and that's what we're doing at the moment and where they are at this moment in time we identify ted and birmingham 2022 must be congratulated with keeping going under the circumstances that we have at the moment. and the most inclusive yet they are saying is because their parents sports programme will be extended to include wheelchair basketball and admission of athletics and swimming. how much is that going to mean for power athletes? it is going to be tremendous and it was 2002 the very first games that the

power athletes we re first games that the power athletes were official athletes working equally well as it's gone from strength to strength and it's because we were able to portray these athletes at the games and let them see that if he can do it i can do it as well and not only that we don't separate them out and they're all in it together and they're all commonwealth athletes at the games and timmy that is so important to ensure that more young disabled athletes can come in and to praise and take part and enjoy it more than anything. elise christie says she's keen to get back racing after coming back from a "really bad place". the british short track speed skater has struggled with her mental and physical health since the last winter olympics, but says the enforced break during lockdown has been beneficial to her. elise christie was speaking to our 0lympic sports

herself in a dark place. so sometime time away was welcome. herself in a dark place. so sometime time away was welcomelj herself in a dark place. so sometime time away was welcome. i had such a horrible season last year and i ended up depressed again and i'm trying so hard to turn it around and what happens since the last games andi what happens since the last games and i felt like nothing what happens since the last games and ifelt like nothing was what happens since the last games and i felt like nothing was working and i felt like nothing was working andi and i felt like nothing was working and i could have done with a little reset and i would not have taken a but it was forced of that was quite nice. she trained at home for six months, something she feels has benefited her. my fitness is higher than normal, going in the right direction and i'm much more robust than i've ever been. in the last year a cut to the point where i was inhabited by place and i didn't really wa nt inhabited by place and i didn't really want to race and now i want to race and i can't race. that is because this years race schedule has cancelled. and even the prospect of only one full season of racing before her final 0lympics

only one full season of racing before her final olympics in only one full season of racing before herfinal olympics in 2022 was not facing her. the first year back was at good bit of timeout and a second year i had major surgery so missed most of that season and a seasonis missed most of that season and a season is the pandemic self the positive side of it is the body is fresh and it's a good place to build in shape and also i'm excited. i know it's not just in shape and also i'm excited. i know it's notjust about in shape and also i'm excited. i know it's not just about the in shape and also i'm excited. i know it's notjust about the metal now, i think it's about actually going out and enjoying it and promoting people not to give up. that's all from sportsday. we'll have more throughout the evening. a big shock in the cards on the match e—mail mentoring in the champions league. 13 time champions are 3—0 down at half—time and below have more updates throughout the evening but for now the diet. —— for now goodbye.

good evening to you. that time is edging up to six minutes to seven. you are watching bbc news. we will just take a few minutes to talk more about coronavirus and today's big development. let's return now to news that south yorkshire is to enter the highest level of coronavirus restrictions. clive betts is the labour mp for sheffield south east and is the former leader of sheffield city council. the evening. good evening. that was a little while ago. the challenge really gets me going for council leaders be stated in this situation. it's interesting to talk to you for that reason. how what is awaiting your constituents this weekend, how much confidence do you have that they will get the financial support at least that

they will need. the leaders of the local authority —— authorities in south yorkshire made out to what they believed they needed to support businesses and support workers and support people who are being asked to isolate. they are basically told this is the governing package and that's it, ta ke governing package and that's it, take it or leave it. it was not a negotiation. it was the government stepping down what they are going to do. i spoke to dan jarvis in the last hour and he said he wanted people to rest assured him that weekend that he would be constantly talking to the government throughout this period and that he would be co nsta ntly this period and that he would be constantly pushing for more. he said of course i would have enough my money and of course i would but time was not on our side and we had to get the best deal we could. was there anything else that all the people negotiating could have done? i don't think there was negotiation. i think that was the government seeing what they're going to do as one of the constant leader

is said they put lots of civil sevens into a room to tell us what we could not have. i think yes, there was some move at the margin like keeping the scented opening and bingo halls of pain and they felt these were important to help people who were isolated and needed to get out and have a bit of enjoyment so those things are at the margin but in terms of the money available, to support employees who will lose theirjobs and support employees who will lose their jobs and support support employees who will lose theirjobs and support people to encourage them to isolate so they do not lose their incomes by taking two weeks of work. that is simply inadequate. is that one of your concerns that some people will not be able to afford to isolate even if they know they should? yes. if people don't isolate to be have all the restrictions in the world and there is tracking and tracing which we need to do and it is good. one of the positives of this it's good that responsibilities are being sent down

to local public health directors and they know a lot more and that is a good positive step forward and having identify people in contact with those who are infectious and enough to persuade them to isolate and if people look at the situation and if people look at the situation and thus income over the last few months and one of the members of the house lost their job months and one of the members of the house lost theirjob it months and one of the members of the house lost their job it will take two weeks of work and by the rate what about your food bills and gas bills and your housing costs and think maybe i can't afford to take to meet —— two weeks off work. if you give people average income the money that they would have lost my having to come i did get a lot higher take—up rate and that is absolutely key. you cannot stop the spread of this virus may not persuading people to isolate. final thoughts about exit strategy. how do you ensure that they situation it lasts as short a time as possible? am very worried it will be quite a

long time. i think will end up with even more restrictions on you get the isolating done i think it will be an uphill struggle and without it getting below one of course the infection rates will carry on and i'm worried about the next 00:13:18,1000 --> 00:13:19,484 three months. thank you for your time. i am sorry we don't have more time. here is a look that the weather right now. quite a 5°99y soggy day across england and wales and another wet day for northern and western scotland. hello there. turned out to be quite a soggy day across england and wales. and another wet day for northern and western scotland, too. but as we head on into thursday, a ridge of high pressure should settle things down and become a bit quieter, and we should see some sunshine into the afternoon for many of us. this is the area of low pressure, which brought the wet weather to england and wales through today.

this feature continuing to bring some rain to the northern and western scotland, fairly strong winds blowing down from the north and the northeast. further south, a little bit drier, but there'll still be showers dotted around overnight with clear spells, too, temperatures at around 7—12 celsius. so a fairly mild night for most of us. into thursday, then, it stays pretty windy across the northern half of the uk, further outbreaks of rain. but as that ridge of high pressure continues to build in, we should see increasing amounts of sunshine for northern ireland, england, and wales, pushing temperatures up to 15—16 celsius — a bit cooler further north. now the frontal system spreads across the country on friday, then it's windy for all areas with widespread gales on saturday.
