      The Brit, 36, moved level with Michael Schumacher on seven world titles last year and will become the outright top dog if he collects the most points across this season’s races.
      In a season that has already seen shifts and changes to the calendar, the Australian Grand Prix was due to take place on the weekend of March 21, but was put back to November 21.
      Then the Melbourne event was cancelled altogether due to rising Covid cases Down Under.
      And in April the world governing body approved sprint races in the British, Brazilian and Italian Grand Prix as a replacement for qualifying.
      Here is how the F1 calendar unfolds in 2021 with our race by race schedule.

      Gareth Southgate has begged England fans not to boo the Italian national anthem ahead of the final and fire up the passionate Azzurri.
      What is Italy’s national anthem called?
      The Italian national anthem is officially called Il Canto degli Italiani (The Song of the Italians).
      However, to most Italians it is better known as Fratelli d’Italia (Brothers of Italy) after the first line of the song.
      What are the words to Italy’s national anthem?
      Fratelli d’Italia,l’Italia s’è desta,dell’elmo di Scipios’è cinta la testa.Dov’è la Vittoria?Le porga la chioma,ché schiava di RomaIddio la creò.
      Stringiamci a coorte,siam pronti alla morte.Siam pronti alla morte,l’Italia chiamò.Stringiamci a coorte,siam pronti alla morte.Siam pronti alla morte,l’Italia chiamò! Sì!

      What are the English words to Italy’s national anthem?
      Brothers of Italy,Italy has woken,bound Scipio’s helmetUpon her head.Where is Victory?Let her bow down,Because [as a] slave of RomeGod created her.
      Let us join in a cohort,we are ready to die.We are ready to die,Italy has called.Let us join in a cohort,We are ready to die.We are ready to die,Italy has called! Yes! More

      Which events are in the heptathlon?

      by

      IF doing one track and field event was not enough – some athletes decide to do SEVEN.The heptathlon is a women’s only event and competitors earn points for their performance in each discipline.

      Belgium’s Naffi Thiam won gold last time out at Rio 2016Credit: EPA
      World champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson will be targeting more success as he will bid for gold at Tokyo 2020.
      And what British athletics fan could forget Super Saturday in 2012 when Jessica Ennis-Hill won a magnificent gold medal?
      What does the heptathlon consist of?
      All heptathletes are scheduled to take part in seven different events with the first four completed on day one and the remaining three on day two.
      The woman’s heptathlon consists of:

      Day one: 100m hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200 metres
      Day two: Long jump, javelin, 800m run

      The long jump combines speed, strength and agility in an attempt to leap as far as possible from a take off point.Credit: Sportsfile
      For the high jump, competitors must jump unaided over a horizontal bar placed at measured heights without dislodging it.Credit: Sportsfile
      The heptathlon is a set of events that take course over two days measuring the key components of strength and versatility of these mega-athletes competing at the Olympics.
      The event’s unrivalled empress is American athlete Jackie Joyner-Kersee, who set the world and Olympic record in 1988 with a score of 7,291 points.
      The 7,000-point barrier has only been breeched on 10 occasions, six of those coming from Joyner-Kersee herself.
      Since then, no other competitor has come within 250 points of breaking her mark.
      London 2012 – Jessica Ennis wins heptathlon goldCredit: The Sun
      How is it scored?
      This is where it gets a little bit complicated.
      The rule of thumb is that a high-level performance in each of the seven games should score a competitor approximately 1,000 points per event.
      There are three different equations to create the scores for each event in the heptathlon, those being:
      Running events (200 m, 800 m and 100 m hurdles)

      Jumping events (high jump and long jump)

      Throwing events (shot put and javelin)

      Yes, if it seems like you need an advanced degree to set this up, you’re right.
      The heptathlon’s scoring system was devised by Dr. Karl Ulbrich, an Austrian mathematician.
      P is the number of points scored, T is the competitor’s time, and a, b and c are Ulbrich’s specially derived coefficients. These coefficients can change for each event.
      Ulbrich’s formula is used to allow comparisons from past and future heptathlon’s, rather than just awarding points relative to placement.
      The scoring changes also make it more difficult for less-rounded athletes to win the event based on their dominance in one or two events.
      Losing by three-tenths of a second in the 200m run is the rough equivalent to losing by three feet in the javelin throw, and so on – so it is a competition of the best overall athlete over seven events.

      Who to watch out for
      Britain’s Katarina Johnson-Thompson – or KJT as she is nicknamed.
      Johnson-Thompson recorded her best ever finish at a World Championships in 2017 – finishing fifth in London.
      The Liverpool born athlete then followed up that success by winning heptathlon gold at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Australia to claim her first global senior outdoor title.
      And in that same year she also claimed a heptathlon silver medal at the European Championships in Berlin behind Belgium’s Nafi Thiam.
      The 28-year-old’s best score of 6981 points is a British record and the ninth best heptathlon score in history. More

      Wales national anthem lyrics: Land of Our Fathers, Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau words for Euro 2020 and Six Nations

      by

      THERE are few national anthems in the world that are sung with the pride and ferocity of Wales’ Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau.The song, which translates into English as ‘Land of my Fathers’, is one of the most recognisable in global sport – not least international rugby and football matches.

      The Welsh national anthem will be belted out with more pride than ever during their Rugby World Cup campaignCredit: Reuters
      What are the lyrics to Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau in Welsh?
      USUALLY only the first verse and the chorus is sung at sporting events, but we’ve included the whole lot for you lot keen enough to see the whole thing.
      Verse 1 
      Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
      Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
      Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad,
      Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.
      Chorus
      Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i’m gwlad.
      Tra môr yn fur i’r bur hoff bau,
      O bydded i’r hen iaith barhau.
      Fans raise the roof during a rousing renditionCredit: Times Newspapers Ltd
      Verse 2
      Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bardd,
      Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn, i’m golwg sydd hardd;
      Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si
      Ei nentydd, afonydd, i mi.
      Verse 3
      Os treisiodd y gelyn fy ngwlad tan ei droed,
      Mae hen iaith y Cymru mor fyw ag erioed,
      Ni luddiwyd yr awen gan erchyll law brad,
      Na thelyn berseiniol fy ngwlad.
      What are the lyrics in English?
      OBVIOUSLY with the anthem being sung in Welsh, this is only the translation and won’t be belted out during the Six Nations like this.
      But it’s good know what the lyrics mean – and they’re suitably patriotic.
      Verse 1
      This land of my fathers is dear to me,
      Land of poets and singers, and people of stature,
      Her brave warriors, fine patriots,
      Shed their blood for freedom.
      Chorus
      Land! Land! I am true to my land!
      As long as the sea serves as a wall for this pure, dear land.
      May the language endure for ever. More

      The Brit, 36, moved level with Michael Schumacher on seven world titles last year and will become the outright top dog if he collects the most points across this season’s races.
      In a season that has already seen shifts and changes to the calendar, the Australian Grand Prix was due to take place on the weekend of March 21, but was put back to November 21 because of coronavirus restrictions Down Under.
      Turkey had replaced Canada as the Grand Prix destination on June 13, but it was then axed by F1 chiefs on safety grounds.
      And in April the world governing body approved sprint races in the British, Brazilian and Italian Grand Prix as a replacement for qualifying.

      What are the lyrics to The Flower of Scotland?

      O Flower of Scotland,When will we seeYour like again,That fought and died for,Your wee bit Hill and Glen,And stood against him (against who?),Proud Edward’s Army,And sent him homeward,To think again.
      The Hills are bare now,And Autumn leaveslie thick and still,O’er land that is lost now,Which those so dearly held,That stood against him (against who?),Proud Edward’s Army,And sent him homeward,To think again.
      Those days are past now,And in the pastthey must remain,But we can still rise now,And be the nation again,That stood against him (against who?),Proud Edward’s Army,And sent him homeward,To think again.
