Garry Richardson with reaction to Russia's suspension from athletics, plus an in-depth Carlo Ancelotti interview.

In the week that Russia's athletics federation was provisionally suspended from international competition, we speak to UK Athletics Chairman Ed Warner about the story's pressing issues, and get the reaction to the news from arguably the most famous Olympic champion from the old Soviet Union, Olga Korbut.

We speak to Tessa Jowell, former Secretary of State for Culture, Sport and Media, about security implications for Euro 2016 following the tragedy in Paris.

There's also an in-depth interview with Carlo Ancelotti, who discusses Chelsea's form and talks about his own football managerial future. Former Republic of Ireland international Chris Hughton assesses his country's Euro 2016 play-off tie with Bosnia, and the current Brighton boss also enthuses about the club's excellent start to the Championship season. And there's rugby chat as Lewis Moody offers his view on who should succeed Stuart Lancaster as England head coach.
