The title rivals took maximum points in Ferrari's home race with Max Verstappen winning the Sprint and the race itself, as well as securing the fastest lap, while Sergio Perez came in second.Similar success was enjoyed by Red Bull in Miami, where Verstappen won for the second race in a row and, while Perez could only come fourth following issues with his car, it left Charles Leclerc's lead at just 19 points but Ferrari's advantage in the Constructor's Championship lies in single figures.That has seen Fittipaldi rethink his assessments on the battle for the title after he admitted he never expected such a strong response from Red Bull following the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.“I think I had the wrong opinion previously.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson kept it brief as he gave his first verdict on the club's appointment of Erik ten Hag.The Red Devils confirmed last Thursday that Ten Hag will take over as the club's new permanent boss in the summer, with interim manager Ralf Rangnick set to move into an advisory role at Old Trafford.

Ralf Rangnick has reportedly slammed Manchester United chiefs for their “sticking-plaster” transfer strategy.The German took over as the Red Devils’ interim manager in December in a bid to recover the season following the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. But things appear to have gotten worse under the former RB Leipzig boss, with Man United crashing out of all cup competitions and on course to miss out on Champions League football next season.And Rangnick has now put the blame on United bosses for their “short-sighted” strategy when it comes to transfers.

Manchester United are in the midst of a major rebuild in a bid to change their fortunes after years of mismanagement behind the scenes and disappointment on the pitch. This season marks five since the club last won a trophy and nearly a decade since they last won the league and something needs to change.

Ralf Rangnick sought feedback on Erik ten Hag from contacts who had worked with the Ajax coach before Manchester United appointed the Dutchman as their next manager.

Erik ten Hag's long-term vision for Manchester United was a key factor in his appointment as the new manager, according to the club's football director John Murtough.
