According to a new report out of Switzerland, four-time Formula 1 champion Alain Prost has been injured after his home was raided by a group of masked men.

Swiss outlet Blick reported that the racing legend’s home in Nyon, about 25km (15.5 miles) north of Geneva, was the target of a robbery at around 8:30 a.m. local time on Tuesday.

While police have not officially released the names of the victims, they did confirm that a robbery took place and that a family was targeted.

“Several masked individuals entered the house. Once inside, they threatened the occupants and slightly injured one family member in the head, under circumstances that are still being investigated,” police said in a statement, per BBC Sport.

“The perpetrators then forced another family member to open a safe before fleeing,” it added.

Swiss and French police are currently working to find the perpetrators.

Prost is regarded as one of the greatest drivers in Formula 1, competing from 1980 to 1993, driving for McLaren, Renault, Ferrari and Williams.

The Frenchman won World Drivers’ Championships in 1985, 1986, 1989 and 1993, and his four wins tie him with Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen on the career championships list. They trail Juan Manuel Fangio with five, and Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher, who each have seven.

Prost’s most memorable stretch came at McLaren in the late 1980s when he was in some intense championship battles with his then-teammate, F1 legend Ayrton Senna.

After retiring from F1, Prost worked in television, ran his own team known as Prost Grand Prix and most recently worked as an advisor for the Alpine Formula 1 team, a role he left in 2022.

The post came just days after Vanessa announced that she was diagnosed with breast cancer and had recently undergone a procedure.

“I’ve recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. While this isn’t news anyone expects, I’m working closely with my medical team on a treatment plan. I would like to thank my doctors for performing a procedure earlier this week on me. I am staying focused and hopeful while surrounded by the love and support of my family, my kids, and those closest to me,” he post read.

“Thank you for your kindness and support. It truly means more than I can express. I kindly ask for privacy as I focus on my health and recovery.

The photo posted by Vanessa on Friday was the same photo Woods shared on X when he first announced his relationship with her in March 2025.

“Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side! We look forward to our journey through life together,” he wrote in an X post at the time. “At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts.” 

She recently posted a message supporting Woods after he was arrested on DUI charges in Florida back in March.

Woods was spotted earlier this month getting off his private plane at Palm Beach International Airport after staying in Switzerland for several weeks. He was previously granted permission on April 1 to travel out of the country “to enter into comprehensive inpatient treatment.”

White House lockdown lifted after gunman brandishes pistol, fires multiple shots near grounds

Published

Fox News has learned a male gunman armed with a pistol opened fire Saturday afternoon near the White House in Washington, D.C., engaging with the U.S. Secret Service.

Fox News Chief congressional correspondent Chad Pergram reported that at about 6 p.m. local time, a gunman fired about three shots toward the executive mansion and Secret Service agents returned fire, according to a senior administration official with direct knowledge of the incident.

The White House was placed on lockdown, which was later lifted.

The shooting unfolded near 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW, prompting a lockdown that was later lifted, according to the Secret Service.

A nearby civilian on the street was shot in the exchange, and their condition is unknown, the senior official said.

As many as 30 shots were reportedly heard in the direction of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.

The senior official said the suspect never got inside the general perimeter of the White House grounds.

All members of the Secret Service were reported safe.

FBI Director Kash Patel said his agency’s agents are at the scene and “supporting Secret Service responding to shots fired near White House grounds.”

Secret Service agents were heard telling reporters to “get down,” before the press were ushered into the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room in the West Wing.

Secret Service agents were seen on the grounds with their weapons drawn.

Hours before the alleged gunfire rang out, President Donald Trump announced the administration was close to finalizing a deal to end the war with Iran, noting he was in the White House Oval Office.

Indiana coach Curt Cignetti is putting in some pace car reps before the Indianapolis 500

Published

It’s always cool to say you got the chance to drive the pace car for any race, but having them toss you the keys for the Indianapolis 500?

It doesn’t get any better than that, and this year, that honor goes to one of the most popular people in Indiana these days, Indiana Hoosiers head football coach Curt Cignetti.

The great thing about driving the pace car is that, unlike a ceremonial first pitch, which has no bearing on the game (although, how fun would it be if it did?), the pace car driver can impact the race.

You’ve got to be going the right speed so that the cars are able to get their tires up to temperature safely.

WNBA SUPERSTAR CAITLIN CLARK WILL BE THE GRAND MARSHAL OF THIS YEAR’S INDIANAPOLIS 500

Go too slow, and you’re going to irritate some drivers.

So, it makes sense that you would do some practice ahead of time, and on Saturday, IndyCar shared some pictures and videos of Cignetti getting in some reps at the Brickyard.

Cignetti is getting quite the set of wheels to pace the field. The pace car for the 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500 is a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X. It has a 5.5L twin-turbo V8 engine that delivers over 1,000 hp to the rear wheels, and if that wasn’t good enough, it also has an electric motor that adds another 186 hp to the front axle.

I’m not sure what Cignetti is driving day-to-day, but that’s a lot of car, so it’s good that he was getting some pointers from Sarah Fisher. Fisher is a former IndyCar driver with nine Indianapolis 500 appearances under her belt and has also worked for the driver as a pace car driver.

So, if there’s anyone to get some pointers from, it’s her.

Cignetti and the Corvette — which sports a very cool America 250 paint scheme — will lead the field on the pace laps on Sunday, with coverage beginning at 10 a.m. ET on Fox.
