7th to 13th June
We start the review by remembering Jason Dupasquier, a young and rising Swiss Moto3 star who so sadly passed away during a qualifying 2 session in the Gran Premio d'Italia last weekend. Before the Italian Grand Prix, Dupasquier was placed tenth in the World Championship standings having already collected an impressive 27 points from the opening five rounds.
Canada have made it to the final of the 2021 Ice Hockey World Championship in Latvia and their opponents will be determined by the winner of Germany and Finland to be played later today. As the championship was cancelled last year, Finland are the defending champions from 2019. USA will be in contention for the bronze medal match. Both are to be played tomorrow. Norwegian hurdles star, Karsten Warholm, broke his own 300m hurdles world record yesterday at the Bislett Night of Highlights in Oslo. His time was 33.26, taking half a second from the previous record. Last weekend was also the Indianapolis 500, one of the Triple Crown of Motorsport. Helio Castroneves joined an exclusive club of four-time winners. In the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series, Kyle Larson won at the Charlotte Motor Speedway, which significantly gave Hendrick Motorsports a record 269th victory.
The New Zealand cricket team are currently touring England playing the hosts in a test series in preparation for the ICC World Test Championship Final to be played in Southampton. India will be their opponents. Roland Garros approaches the second week with the finals on Saturday and Sunday of next weekend. Football fans will also be looking forward to the UEFA Euro 2020 starting on Friday with Italy and Turkey opening the tournament in Rome. Considering the current circumstances, the event will be a logistical challenge as UEFA has allocated several European cities opportunities to host matches. In the opening three days, matches will already be played in seven different cities.
Until next time, have a great week in sport.
