Jake Humphrey presents coverage of qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix from Shanghai.

Reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton topped qualifying in both of his two previous visits to China, but enjoyed mixed fortunes in the race proper. In 2007 the Briton was in pole position, not just for the race itself but for the overall championship, but ended up in a gravel trap after sliding off the track on his way into the pit lane. That allowed Kimi Raikkonen victory, and the Finn went on to clinch the world title in dramatic style a fortnight later.

In 2008, however, it was Hamilton who enjoyed the last laugh, winning in Shanghai and going on to claim his maiden title in the following race.

Gary Lineker presents highlights and analysis from matches including Stoke v Blackburn.

Gary Lineker presents action from the day's Premier League fixtures, with matches including Stoke v Blackburn, Sunderland v Hull, Portsmouth v Bolton and Middlesbrough v Fulham.

Gary Lineker presents all the goals and talking points from the day's Premier League fixtures. With the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal involved in the FA Cup semi-finals, the relegation battle takes centre stage, as one of the tightest and most exciting battles to avoid the drop in recent years hots up. 

Blackburn's fight for top flight survival has been helped by the arrival of Sam Allardyce, and Rovers enjoyed a 3-0 win over Stoke in his first game in charge in December. The teams meet again at the Britannia Stadium, where Stoke have looked very comfortable this season. Like Stoke, Hull were also promoted last season, but their Premier League honeymoon proved brief and they now find themselves having to scrap for survival, paying a visit to fellow strugglers Sunderland. And Portsmouth host Bolton, with both sides also needing points.

Middlesbrough's plight looked grave before their game against Fulham, who beat them 3-0 earlier in the season. But the Cottagers have not been nearly as strong away from their home ground - could Boro carve out a desperately needed win at the Riverside?

The day's other game sees Aston Villa host West Ham. Villa's form has dipped alarmingly in the second half of the season and Martin O'Neill's men had a miserable March - but three points at Villa Park would reinvigorate their hopes of finishing in the top four.
