Lewis Hamilton has played down the comments made by Ferrari chairman John Elkann, who appeared to criticise the drivers after a disappointing Brazilian Grand Prix weekend from the Scuderia team.
Elkann made headlines after the outfit’s double retirement in Sao Paulo.
“Brazil was a huge disappointment,” he said publicly. “If we look at the Formula 1 championship, we can say that on one hand we have our mechanics, who are winning the championship with their performance and everything they’ve done on the pitstops.

Lane Kiffin’s coaching saga added another surprising layer on Thursday when video surfaced of his daughter, Landry, at an LSU Booster Club meeting. This further fuels speculation about her father’s future.
According to On3’s Pete Nakos, Landry attended the event to support her boyfriend, LSU linebacker Whit Weeks, who was one of the speakers.
LaMelo Ball has put up counting stats this season when on the court, averaging 21.6 points, 9.6 assists and 6.9 rebounds a game in the nine games he has played. That said, he is shooting just 38.5% from the floor — 29.8% from 3-point range. He has helped make the Hornets competitive in games, but still they have stumbled to a 4-11 start to the season.
Which is why there is some logic to the idea that Ball would be open to a trade, maybe around the February deadline, and Kelly Iko of Yahoo Sports reported that he is.
Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb said he and George Pickens missed curfew Sunday, which resulted in both players missing the first series of Monday’s game against the Raiders.
We’re still finalizing the field for the 2026 FIFA World Cup ahead of the highly anticipated draw on December 5 in Washington, DC, but there have already been some surprises.
One of those surprises was the island nation of Haiti (or, I guess more accurately, half-an-island; middle school geography bee champs like me get it), which will make its second-ever World Cup appearance.
But what’s most surprising is that they managed to get to the World Cup under a coach who has never even set foot in the country.
Dan Lanning has had a very good three first four seasons at Oregon. His Ducks have lost only 7 games in those four years and have never lost to an unranked team. That’s really impressive.
But today, as we set the table for USC-Oregon this Saturday, let’s dive deeper into Lanning’s seven losses. See if there’s any trend you notice:
Connect the Duck dots
September 3, 2022 at Georgia — Ducks lose 49-3 — 12:30 p.m. PT start time
November 12, 2022 vs Washington — Ducks lose 37-34 — 4:00 p.m.
The NBA is standing firm on a controversial offensive foul that directly impacted the end of the New York Knicks’ win over the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. The Knicks escaped with a 113-111 win over the Mavericks after Brandon Williams’ game-tying layup was called back due to a hook on Knicks guard Landry Shamet.
In the Last Two Minutes report (L2M), the league’s assessment of the officiating in the final minutes of close games, the NBA said that officials correctly called the foul on Williams, which came with 0.6 seconds left on the clock.
Washington fans have had an uneasy last month or so as head coach Jedd Fisch has been thrown into coaching rumors as a potential target at both UCLA and Florida. It looks less likely that the Huskies will be going through a search for a new head coach today than it did before the Wisconsin loss but I decided to be proactive.
In order to help prepare for what has the potential to be the most hectic coach search season since the Oklahoma/LSU/USC/Notre Dame madness, I decided to build my own set of coach rankings to inform a dashboard to prepare me for the season.
