2015 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles final
A significant part of the Djokovic–Federer rivalry, it pitted defending champion Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer against each other in a Grand Slam final for the third time, a rematch of the Wimbledon final a year earlier in which Djokovic defeated Federer in five sets. Before the match, Federer led the head-to-head 20 matches to 19, with the two players tied one to one on grass and one to one in Grand Slam finals.


2015 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles final
This was the first time the top two seeds had met in a men's Grand Slam final since the 2014 French Open, which pitted Rafael Nadal (1) against Djokovic (2).


2015 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles final, Background
Federer, a winner of 17 Grand Slams, was appearing in his 26th Grand Slam final and tenth Wimbledon final. He was seeking a record eighth Wimbledon title, which would rank him above Pete Sampras, who won the tournament seven times. Djokovic, a winner of eight Grand Slams, was appearing in his 17th Grand Slam final and fourth Wimbledon final. He was seeking his third Wimbledon title and looking to defend his win of the previous year.


2015 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles final, Build-up
This was a rematch of the previous year's final where Djokovic had won in five sets. Federer had shown strong form in the tournament. He had reached the semi-final against Andy Murray losing just one set and completed all his previous rounds with less than ten hours spent on the court. In the semi-final, he beat Murray in straight sets to set up his opportunity for a record 8th Wimbledon and 18th Grand Slam win. On the other half of the draw, Djokovic had barely survived after a scare of a fourth round elimination against Kevin Anderson whom he beat from two sets down. Djokovic had also recently lost in the French Open final against Stan Wawrinka, and was considered to be vulnerable at times.


2015 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles final, Match
Djokovic won the first set, before Federer made a comeback to win the second set in a close tie-breaker, saving seven set points in the process. By the third set, however, Djokovic started to tighten his grip on the match as Federer's count of unforced errors rose. In some crucial moments, Djokovic was able to defend break points, and eventually, it became too much for Federer to sustain the challenge. In the end, Djokovic won in four sets.

2015 Windows 10 400, Report, Background
Pocono Raceway (formerly Pocono International Raceway), also known as the Tricky Triangle, is a superspeedway located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania at Long Pond. It is the site of two annual NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races held just weeks apart in June and August, and one NASCAR Camping World Truck Series event in August. Since 2013, the track is also host to a Verizon IndyCar Series race.


2015 Windows 10 400, Report, Background
Pocono is one of a very few NASCAR tracks not owned by either Speedway Motorsports, Inc. or International Speedway Corporation, the dominant track owners in NASCAR. It is run by the Igdalsky siblings Brandon, Nicholas, and sister Ashley, and cousins Joseph IV and Chase Mattioli, all of whom are third-generation members of the family-owned Mattco Inc, started by Joseph II and Rose Mattioli. Mattco also owns South Boston Speedway in South Boston, Virginia.


2015 Windows 10 400, Report, Background
Outside of the NASCAR races, Pocono is used throughout the year by Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) and motorcycle clubs as well as racing schools. The triangular oval also has three separate infield sections of racetrack – North Course, East Course and South Course. Each of these infield sections use a separate portion of the tri-oval to complete the track. During regular non-race weekends, multiple clubs can use the track by running on different infield sections. Also some infield sections can be run in either direction, or multiple infield sections can be put together – such as running the North Course and the South Course and using the tri-oval to connect the two.


2015 Windows 10 400, Report, Background
Kevin Harvick entered Pocono with a 69-point lead over Joey Logano. Dale Earnhardt, Jr. entered 100 back, Jimmie Johnson entered 102 back and Martin Truex, Jr. entered 109 back.


2015 Windows 10 400, Report, Background, Changes to the track
Following the Axalta "We Paint Winners" 400 in June, a section of the Tunnel Turn – turn 2 – about 170 ft (52 m) by 28 ft (8.5 m) was milled, leveled and repaved. This was done to eliminate the bumps that develop when the foundation for the track surface that goes over the tunnel the team haulers use to get in and out of the track settles into the ground.


2015 Windows 10 400, Report, Background, Entry list
The entry list for the Windows 10 400 was released on Monday, July 27 at 11:20 a.m. Eastern time. Forty-three drivers were entered for the race. All were entered in the previous week's race at Indianapolis. There were three driver changes for this race. The No. 33 Hillman-Circle Sport LLC Chevrolet that was driven by Alex Kennedy. The Premium Motorsports duo swapped rides this weekend with Timmy Hill driving the No. 62 Chevrolet and Reed Sorenson driving the No. 98 Ford.

Brad Keselowski was the fastest in the first practice session with a time of 50.961 and a speed of 176.606 mph (284.220 km/h).


2015 Windows 10 400, Qualifying
Kyle Busch won the pole with a time of 50.444 and a speed of 178.416 mph (287.133 km/h). “I told you I had a fast car, I just wasn’t sure we could get the balance right,” Busch said after winning the pole. “(Crew chief) Adam Stevens and these guys, they did it again.” “A lot of that lies on me for putting the lap together something I hadn’t done over the last couple of months,” Kevin Harvick said after qualifying second. “I feel like we all did a good job there and made some good adjustments.


2015 Windows 10 400, Qualifying
I feel like I probably gave up a little bit in Turn 1. I got a little bit tight in the center of that corner, but all-in-all it was a good lap and I’m glad we ran our fastest speed in the last round. That is what you have to do.” “Not bad,” Tony Stewart said after qualifying fifth. “ (Crew chief) Chad Johnston came over in between the practice session and qualifying and showed me some stuff where I was losing some time. That is what we focused on for qualifying and it worked.”


2015 Windows 10 400, Qualifying
“We were pretty good in that final round but not quite good enough to get the pole there,” said Brad Keselowski after qualifying ninth. “We were missing a little bit in one of the corners, but all-in-all a good effort. We had the fastest car in practice so I feel pretty good about that. It is similar to what we had at the Brickyard and we were really strong there but just needed a little more to win so I am optimistic about it for sure.”


2015 Windows 10 400, Qualifying
“We really struggled for whatever reason in Turn 1 today,” said Martin Truex, Jr. after qualifying 13th “Just can’t seem to get the balance right. We were either too tight or too loose no matter what we do. Fought the same thing there, not a big deal though I think we will be okay. We’ve got plenty of time to figure it out tomorrow. We’ve got a few cars to pass, but 13th is not too bad. We did it last week.”


2015 Windows 10 400, Practice (post-qualifying), Second practice
Carl Edwards was the fastest in the second practice session with a time of 51.191 and a speed of 175.812 mph (282.942 km/h).


2015 Windows 10 400, Practice (post-qualifying), Final practice
Kyle Busch was the fastest in the final practice session with a time of 51.358 and a speed of 175.240 mph (282.021 km/h). Jeb Burton was forced to go to his backup car after wrecking into the inside pit road wall. Because this change took place after qualifying, he started the race from the rear of the field.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
The race was scheduled to start at 1:46 p.m., but started four minutes later when Kyle Busch led the field to the green flag. The first caution of the race flew on the fifth lap when Kasey Kahne got loose on the frontstretch coming out of turn 3, slid down the track and slammed into the inside wall lining pit road. This was in an almost identical manner to what happened to Jeb Burton in final practice the day before.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
“Well, first of all I couldn’t believe I was clear over here this late in the corner and then all the way to the left heading towards pit wall,” Kahne said. “Then I saw the people and I thought to myself that those guys need to take off running and get out of the way. I didn’t know. I hadn’t done anything like that before so it was kind of crazy the way it all happened.”


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
Kahne was uninjured and he was released from the infield care center a few minutes later, but his car was damaged beyond repair and he finished dead last. The race was red-flagged to allow NASCAR to evaluate and repair the wall. After a 14-minute and 43 second delay, the red flag was withdrawn and the field continued under caution.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
The race restarted on lap 10. The second caution of the race flew on lap 16. This was a scheduled competition caution after a section of the track was washed down following the previous day's ARCA race. A few cars opted not to pit and Kevin Harvick assumed the race lead. A. J. Allmendinger was tagged for an uncontrolled tire and restarted the race from the tail-end of the field.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
The race restarted on lap 20. The third caution of the race flew the same lap when Harvick blew an engine in turn 3. This was his first DNF since the last year's Duck Commander 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. “"Coming off of Turn 2, I knew I had some issues and didn't realize they were going to be that big, but all in all, just really proud of my team," Harvick said. "Car was fast. You'll have days like this."


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
The race restarted on lap 24. The fourth caution of the race flew on lap 28 when Sam Hornish, Jr. cut down a left-front tire in turn 1 and got rear-ended by Ricky Stenhouse, Jr., who then slammed the wall. "Everything was happening real fast," said Stenhouse, who walked away uninjured.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
"I saw the 9 (Hornish) in Turn 3 run up the track and I thought he just got loose and everything was fine, but getting into Turn 1 the car in front of me ducked out at the last minute and there was the 9 sitting and I got on the brakes really hard. I think it got on the splitter, and (I) couldn't go left or right and just ran right into him. It is not a good day for us.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
I guess the 9 missed a shift or something and I wasn't aware of it until the 35 (Cole Whitt) or one of the other cars pulled out real quick, and there was the 9 sitting there. By the time I reacted, it was just too late and I ran right back into him." "It is one of those days," Hornish said. "I missed a shift on a restart, which wasn't any good, and then we had a tire come apart and then we got hit and then that deal right there (with Busch).


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Start
Kurt was trying to hold on to it and I saw that he got it straightened back out, and it is one of those things where everything stops smoking long enough that you think he has it back under control again and then it is just wobbling around on him. Unfortunate for us, for sure. ... I love coming to Pocono and I have had some good runs here and led laps and felt like we could win races, but it just hasn't been for us this year. Hopefully that doesn't carry on to Watkins Glen next weekend."


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Second quarter
The race restarted on lap 34 with defending Pocono winner Martin Truex, Jr. out in front. He made his first stop on lap 39 and gave the lead to Joey Logano. Jimmie Johnson pitted from second on lap 44. Logano ducked onto pit road on lap 52 and handed the lead to Kyle Busch. He surrendered the lead to pit the next lap and handed it to teammate Denny Hamlin. Dale Earnhardt, Jr. was tagged for speeding on pit road and was forced to serve a drive-through penalty.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Second quarter
Hamlin pitted from the lead on lap 55 and handed it to Brad Keselowski. He pitted on lap 57 and handed the lead to Jeff Gordon. The No. 2 was tagged for an uncontrolled tire after colliding with his tire carrier and was forced to serve a drive-through penalty. Gordon pitted on lap 59 and handed the lead to Danica Patrick. The uncontrolled tire from the No. 2 pit stall brought out the fifth caution of the race on lap 62. She pitted under the caution and the lead cycled back to Joey Logano. Jeb Burton was tagged for speeding on pit road and restarted the race from the tail-end of the field.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Second quarter
The race restarted on lap 66. The sixth caution of the race flew the same lap when Kurt Busch got turned by Paul Menard and then t-boned by Sam Hornish, Jr.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, First half, Second quarter
The race restarted on lap 72. The seventh caution of the race flew the same lap when Dale Earnhardt, Jr. made contact with Cole Whitt in turn 1 and went spinning.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, Second half, Halfway
The race restarted on lap 76. Busch pitted from second on lap 88 and started a round of green flag stops. Logano pitted the next lap and gave the lead to Matt Kenseth. He gave up the lead to pit the next lap and handed it to Kyle Larson. The eighth caution of the race flew on lap 91 when Alex Kennedy backed into the wall in turn 1. Clint Bowyer was caught off by the caution and pitted when pit road was closed. As a result, he restarted the race from the tail-end of the field. Larson pitted under the caution and handed the lead to Joey Logano.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, Second half, Halfway
The race restarted on lap 98. The field settled into a green flag run until lap 123 when Joey Logano surrendered the lead to pit. This handed the lead to Denny Hamlin. He pitted the next lap and handed the lead to David Ragan. He ducked onto pit road with 35 laps to go and handed the lead to Greg Biffle. Brett Moffitt was tagged for speeding on pit road and was forced to serve a drive-through penalty. Biffle hit pit road with 34 laps to go and handed the lead to Jeff Gordon. Casey Mears was tagged for having too many men over the wall and was forced to serve a drive-through penalty. Gordon surrendered the lead to pit with 33 laps to go and the lead cycled back to Joey Logano.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, Second half, Final ten laps
Logano maintained a one-second lead over Kyle Busch with ten laps to go with a chance of being short on fuel. Ultimately, he ran out of fuel on the Long Pond Straightaway with three to go and Busch took over the lead. About a lap later, Truex ran out of fuel as well. On the last lap, Busch too ran out of fuel on the front–stretch, was passed by Matt Kenseth – who had taken the white flag 15 seconds behind Busch – in turn 2 and went on to take the checkered flag.


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, Post-race, Driver comments
“It feels good to get one today,” said Kenseth. “There’s nothing like wins. I never thought I’d ever win at Pocono and I never thought I’d win a fuel mileage race, so we did both today.” “I guess our numbers, from what (crew chief) Todd (Gordon) said, was good enough to make it by a half a lap,” said Joey Logano after running out of gas and finishing 20th. “I was saving fuel just to cushion it. I thought I was going to be good and then I started running out and knew we weren’t going to make it. It was tough. We did everything right today.”


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, Post-race, Driver comments
After running into his tire carrier on lap 57 and serving a drive–through penalty for an uncontrolled tire that sent him back to 37th, Brad Keselowski rallied back to a runner–up finish. "The fuel came into play at the end and we were able to take care of it to bring home second, which is a very respectable day," Keselowski said. "Certainly not where we were going to finish without the fuel, but that is sometimes how it works. I think my teammate and his team did a phenomenal job. I am heartbroken for them to not win the race."


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, Post-race, Driver comments
Jeff Gordon, who was running 16th with four laps to go, took advantage of the cars running out of fuel to finish third – matching his best finish of the season – in his 46th and final career start at Pocono Raceway. "I thought we were trying to get maybe 10th or 12th and all of a sudden they said, 'You're third,' and I think I was probably the most shocked person out there on the racetrack when I found that out," Gordon said after the race. "I knew cars were peeling off, but I just didn't realize that many were either running out or coming to pit road."


2015 Windows 10 400, Race, Post-race, Driver comments
Teammate Dale Earnhardt, Jr. was 17th with four to go and rallied to a fourth-place finish. "We've just got to work harder," he said. "Our car wasn't very good all weekend in the corner. We had a lot of balance issues we never really cured. That held us up. We weren't as good as we were here earlier this year. But still, it was a top-10, top-five car, but just barely a top-five car. I thought we had a good enough car to win here when we came here earlier in the summer, but we lost a little balance."

The election saw an eight-seat enlargement of local Conservatives' running group, having been the designation of the absolute majority of winning candidates hence governing group since 2007; the results saw four Independent (politician)s one of whom had defected in the previous term overturned, the latter in the same way as two UKIP councillors — and two Liberal Democrats lost to Conservatives.

All wards of the United Kingdom in this borough consequently were served by Conservative councillors save for Old Windsor choosing its two delegates to be from Old Windsor Residents and Taxpayers Association and three-member Pinkneys Green at the opposite end of the borough which elected one Liberal Democrat, topping the poll by seven votes ahead of two Conservatives it elected and 312 votes ahead of the runner-up.
