Eddie Howe had admitted the hardest part is yet to come for Sandro Tonali after watching him play a cameo role in Newcastle’s 4-0 Premier League victory over Crystal Palace promo
The 23-year-old Italy international, who could face a lengthy ban if he is found to have breached promo betting rules by an ongoing investigation in Italy, was applauded warmly by the Toon Army before, during and after Saturday’s game at St James’ Park promo
Tonali and his club do not yet know when he will discover his fate, but head coach Howe is convinced the support he has received to date will help him whatever comes his way promo
Howe said: “Let’s wait and see, but yes, I think the hardest part is ahead regardless of what happens promo
“Immediately, you get a lot of attention and people are talking about the situation promo
He’s had the love of the supporters today, but that’s difficult to maintain over a long period of time promo
Who knows what’s ahead?“I just think it’s great for him to know he’s got the support, not just of the senior management at the promo football club and the manager, but also the support of the supporters and they’re the most important people promo
”Tonali was introduced as a 69th-minute replacement for Bruno Guimaraes with the Magpies already four goals to the good in what could conceivably be his final game for several months if he is found to have broken the rules and is suspended promo
Whether he is able to be involved in Wednesday night’s Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund on Tyneside remains to be seen, but whichever team Howe sends out will kick off brimming with confidence after a comprehensive win over the Eagles promo
Jacob Murphy set the ball rolling with a fourth-minute lob which owed a great deal to good fortune – Palace boss Roy Hodgson described it as a “freak” goal – and further strikes from Anthony Gordon and Sean Longstaff before the break and Callum Wilson after it wrapped up the points with the minimum of fuss promo
Howe said: “It was a really important game today promo
It can’t be underestimated how tough those games are because you don’t have a full squad, we’re having to manage players who have travelled a long way and had a big mental load for their countries promo
“So I’m really pleased with the players’ response to that because these are very tough games promo
“Crystal Palace don’t concede many goals promo
We knew the first goal today was going to be really, really important and thankfully we got it quite early promo
”There's nothing really positive to say from our point of viewCrystal Palace boss Roy HodgsonHodgson’s emotions were understandably different after his best-laid plans were ripped apart before the break promo
He said: “We came here thinking and believing that we could give Newcastle a good game and maybe even make life a little bit difficult for them, but we fell woefully short in that department promo
“The first half was really nowhere near what we’ve been able to do up to now and what I thought we would still do despite the fact that this is a tough ask against such a good team because they are a hard team to defend against promo
“But it didn’t work out and at half-time, we were just looking really at salvaging something from the game and not going away totally and utterly dejected because we’d conceded even more goals than the four we conceded promo
“There’s nothing really positive to say from our point of view promo

As often was the case amid an American society embedded in racism in the 1980s, Muhammed Ali put it best promo
Advising black racing driver Willy T Ribbs, the people’s champion made his point in no uncertain terms: “There are Blacks in my sport promo
But there are no Blacks in your sport promo
“They’re going to want to kill you promo
”Yet for all the death threats, discrimination and abuse, Ribbs had long decided that the only option was to meet the uphill battle head-on promo
He made history in 1986 when he became the first Black driver to test an F1 car promo
Five years later, he was the first to race in the Indy 500, one of the world’s most famous events promo
But on the course of that journey, Ribbs faced it all promo
Don’t let me tell you though; let the man himself promo
“Of course, there were death threats, the n-word,” he reflects, in a slow but deadpan fashion that tells you the wounds have long since healed promo
Instead, the metaphorical bruises are worn with pride promo
“But I enjoyed it promo
It didn’t make me mad, it was fun promo
I was going to dish out what they were dishing out to me, it never scared or intimidated me promo
I actually enjoyed it because it was motivating promo
I was never going to play the victim, that was not Willy T Ribbs promo
”Now 68, Ribbs is an ambassador for Formula One, raising awareness for diversity and equality promo
A role given a matter of months after his riveting biopic movie, Uppity, was released in 2020 promo
So titled because that was his nickname in motorsport circles – “and he loved it” promo
But to this interview, he’s late promo
And he apologises, quipping: “Race drivers are never late, you know! Or they’re not supposed to be…”Son to William “Bunny” Ribbs, an amateur racer himself, Willy’s career path was set in stone from day dot it seems promo
It was the racing way or the highway promo
Ribbs faced an avalanche of racism and abuse throughout his career (Getty)“I was born in this sport,” he tells The Independent, from his home in Texas promo
“I watched it from three years old when my dad was racing, watching the likes of Jim Clark and Graham Hill promo
That’s all that was discussed in the family promo
We didn’t discuss any other sport promo
“I was lucky, I think promo
At nine years old, I knew what I wanted to do and I knew what my career path was going to be promo
Most kids that age don’t know what the hell they’re going to do, but I did promo
And I didn’t want to be an amateur at it – I wanted it to be a profession and I wanted it to be Formula One promo
”He learned his craft, in the UK, racing alongside future F1 world champion Nigel Mansell in Formula Ford in the mid-1970s promo
He raced in Nascar and the Trans-Am Series, later on, too promo
But his F1 calling, in ’86, came in the Portuguese town of Estoril promo
Bernie Ecclestone’s Brabham team – “Bernie has always been good to Willy T Ribbs” – gave the American the chance to buck the trend and become a true trailblazer promo
But the tag was not something he felt comfortable with at the time promo
Ribbs made history in an F1 test in 1986 and in the Indy 500 in 1991 (Getty)“All that mattered was I thought of myself as a race driver,” he says promo
“I had two responsibilities: to myself and to my team promo
For those who record social history, that’s their job [to say trailblazer] – but I’m not going to carry that weight on my shoulders promo
“Sure promo
I was a role model because I was doing something no other Black kid had done promo
And great, if that’s the category they want to put me in and how they want to document it promo
But for me? It was about going fast promo
”It was a mindset of not bowing to the status quo, embodied most especially in the late 20th century by Ali promo
“What I admired about him the most was not his promo boxing skills,” Ribbs says of Ali promo
“What I admired about him was his resolve as a man, not to be squashed, manipulated or controlled promo
Ali said: ‘You have to let them know that you can’t be killed, there’s nothing they can do to you, and then they’ll leave you alone for a while promo
’”Now in motor racing, the baton has been passed on to seven-time Formula One world champion and the sport’s only Black driver Lewis Hamilton, whom Ribbs is full of praise about promo
“Lewis Hamilton, after seven world titles and more victories than any other human being, gets unfairly targeted,” insists Ribbs promo
“If you can equate it to Tiger Woods, what did Tiger Woods do for golf? He broadened the audience promo
The attention went off the chart promo
That’s exactly what happened in F1 – Lewis Hamilton has been Formula One’s Tiger Woods promo
“He’s a very kind man promo
He’ll let it roll off, turn the other cheek – I wasn’t that way promo
He deals with it and in a lot of cases it’s unfair promo
Then again, he is in an environment which was not nearly as brutal as I was dealing with promo
Willy T Ribbs was treated differently promo
”The third-person references point to a man who is now comfortable in his own skin; in the significance of the struggle – and what it means to many around the world promo
And despite a sport notoriously still dominated by white men, progress is being made promo
“One thing I love about Formula One is not only is it evolving commercially around the world, it’s evolving socially,” he says promo
“When F1 hired me, I asked them: ‘What made you make this call?’“They said: ‘We watched your film and we thought you’d be the perfect person for inclusion and equality in Formula One promo
’“I said: ‘Well, you called the right guy’ promo
