Motor racing hasn’t always been a display of precision engineering. “Twenty years ago you built the car and found a wishbone would be going through a piece of body work; drill that out and you find the axles are in the wrong place,” Williams CEO James Vowles told CNBC’s “Inside Track.”Yet with 24 races packed into the modern Formula One season and a limit on how much money you can spend competing, even minor mistakes can cost titles.

The date was November 24, 2018.As referee Juan Martinez Munuera blew the whistle for full time, a disappointed Real Madrid team headed for the tunnel following a 3-0 La Liga defeat at Eibar, a game where Karim Benzema was flagged offside seven times, equalling a league record set by Elche’s Jonathas de Jesus in May 2015.Nearly six years later, Kylian Mbappe, Benzema’s long-term replacement, went one better to make the unwanted record his own against another team in red and blue.

Every Friday I do a gameplan look-ahead on “Mad Money.” It has to be cursory because I write about 1,200 words — which has to fit into one segment on television — that’s the typical structure/stricture. I can’t really dally on any particular earnings report because that means I won’t get to the end of the week before we have to go to the commercial break. I know I will run out of time. As members paying dues, you deserve a better, more in-depth analysis of my Charitable Trust’s holdings, the portfolio we use for the CNBC Investing Club. So,…

For two weeks in September, six of the top seven teams in the AP poll were from the SEC. None made it to November with a perfect record in conference play.But Texas A&M did.2. It was only a few weeks ago that Aggies quarterback Conner Weigman returned after missing three games with a shoulder injury to shred then ninth-ranked Missouri 41-10. But Mike Elko’s decision to pull a struggling Weigman in the third quarter of Saturday…
LOS ANGELES — Yoshinobu Yamamoto found himself in a 2-0 count against Aaron Judge when he delivered a fastball at the bottom of the strike zone — a pitch Judge typically punishes. During the regular season, Judge boasted an otherworldly .975 slugging percentage in that area. Yet, in the sixth inning of Game 2, he watched the pitch, leaving the bat resting on his shoulder.“When I’m doing well, I usually fire on that,” Judge said after the Los Angeles Dodgers took a 2-0 lead over the New York Yankees in the World Series.On the next pitch, Yamamoto delivered a curveball…
