Piastri takes the podium; a Mongolian mega-claw; a built-to-last lightbulb; and the Sharktopus swims the seas.

Oscar Piastri went from zero to hero, winning the Shanghai Grand Prix just a week after finishing ninth! It was his first-ever pole position and third career win.

Palaeontologists in Mongolia found the largest complete dinosaur claws EVER—30 cm long and 90 million years old! The dino, Duonychus tsogtbaatari, was a leaf-lover with claws made for grabbing, not stabbing.

A lightbulb in a California fire station has been shining for 124 years without a break! It’s called the Centennial Bulb and holds a world record.

In New Zealand waters, a sneaky Māori octopus was caught catching a lift on a speedy mako shark! Scientists nicknamed the duo "Sharktopus" and said both looked happy with the arrangement. Octo-Uber, anyone?
