Lewis Hamilton and the Formula One grids other world champions agree the FIAs
clampdown on moving under braking is simply clarification of a rule which has
always been unwritten.
Nike Zoom Cheap .Max Verstappens driving has
been brilliant and controversial in equal measure this season, with the Dutch
teenager earning criticism for moving his car in the braking zone when defending
position from other cars. After complaints from both Ferrari drivers earlier in
the season, Verstappen used the same tactic on Hamilton in Japan, forcing the
reigning world champion into evasive action.The issue was raised in Fridays
drivers briefing in Austin, where Charlie Whiting clarified that it is now an
offence to change direction under braking. Hamilton said it has only become an
issue this season because younger drivers do not understand it is a dangerous
tactic to employ.For the ten years Ive been in Formula One its been the same
rule that all us drivers understand, the reigning world champion said. Its only
newcomers that have come in and potentially not abided by that same rule weve
all shared for many, many years.Racing with Michael [Schumacher] had the same
rule, and then as Ive gone on... It will be interesting to see if new drivers
have come in and have a different route and have a different opinion. But it is
about the respect we have for one another. Were travelling at serious speeds so
you commit to your defence but you dont do it whilst in braking, so I think its
great Charlie has understood the majority of drivers opinions.Hamilton thinks
clarification was important to prevent F1 drivers adopting a new dangerous
approach to wheel-to-wheel racing.The rules have to be very strict and clear
because otherwise if they say youre allowed to move under braking, everyone will
do it and well all start a new way of driving which is dangerous. You look at
IndyCar, for example, one twitch and the car goes flying, so I think its
definitely the right way.Four-time champion Sebastian Vettel reiterated
Hamiltons viewpoint, saying the FIAs leniency with earlier cases has spread the
message that it is a fair tactic to use.I think its very simple, Vettel said.
The day I joined Formula One it was clear and an unwritten law and in recent
times we have had situations and got away with it, so for sure the message is
that everyone is starting to do it.I think thats the wrong thing, because in the
end we spoke about it yesterday and we were just waiting for something to
happen. Therefore I think it is a good action to look into these things.McLarens
world champion line-up concurred, with Jenson Button denying that the clampdown
was proof F1 had become over-regulated.I think this is the correct ruling, the
2009 world champion said. We started a long time ago in this sport and theres
always been an understanding its incorrect to move in the braking zone when
someone is trying to overtake, because when so youre trying to overtake
everything is on the limit. Youre pushing the limit, pushing the boundaries, on
the edge of being out of control.And as soon as somebody takes the line in front
of you, and takes the line you were aiming for, the space youre aiming for,
youre screwed. Youre either going to go over the top of them or miss them and go
into the barriers. Its common sense more than anything else. For 15 years of
racing I havent really had any issues, just in the last couple of years we have.
Now its clear, theyve clarified it, and Im happy about it.Fernando Alonso, who
this weekend passed the unenviable 10-year anniversary of his last championship,
said the rule has always been the same even if consistency over penalties has
not.Not really much to comment, the Spaniard said. It was clear before and its
clear now. In football when you take the ball with the hand inside the area, its
a penalty. Sometimes the ref gives you the penalty and sometimes they dont. This
it was clear before: but sometimes they gave a penalty and sometimes they dont
give anything.Kimi Raikkonen, who has been at odds with Verstappen on numerous
occasions this season, was happy to see the rule clarified.Obviously you need
some rules, sometimes it feels there are some unclear situations and they make a
rule for that. It feels like we probably have too many rules but thats how it
is. If there were no rules we could do everything, so we need to have some
guidelines of what we can do. It sounds a bit stupid sometimes but thats
sometimes its beneficial for everybody.Between them, the drivers above account
for every F1 world championship since Alonsos first in 2005. Verstappen seemed
unmoved by the clarification in Austin, commenting that: Maybe they can get past
now

in Allen Fieldhouse. RIO DE JANEIRO -- Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti
acknowledged Saturday that the results of Novembers U.S. presidential election
could weigh heavily on his citys chances of hosting the 2024 Olympics, saying
that a victory by Donald Trump could turn off International Olympic Committee
voters.Garcetti also told The Associated Press that Los Angeles could offer the
last best hope for the United States to host the Summer Olympics again before
the American people begin tuning out from the Games.Garcetti, a 45-year-old
Democrat and supporter of Hillary Clinton, is in Brazil to observe the Rio de
Janeiro Games and pitch his citys bid to IOC members. One of the main topics of
conversation with the delegates has been the U.S. election -- and the prospects
of a Trump presidency.I think for some of the IOC members, they would say, Wait
a second, can we go to a country like that, where weve heard things that we take
offense to? Garcetti said. But I think that gives us even more urgency globally,
where we can say, This is something that is a different strength maybe than the
things that youve heard or the things you believe. I think we continue no matter
what the outcome of the election is.A new U.S. president will be in office when
the IOC selects the 2024 host city in September 2017.Los Angeles, which hosted
the Olympics in 1932 and 1984, is competing with Paris, Rome and Budapest,
Hungary.Everything that were going through right now in the United States
politically, I dont want us to be a country that turns into itself, said
Garcetti, who spoke at the Democratic convention in Philadelphia last month. I
think we have to look outward to the world.The IOCs 98 members come from all
over the world, and Trumps comments on Mexicans, Muslims and other issues wont
encourage them to vote for a U.S. city, according to Garcetti.They wonder, Is
America going to take this strange turn? Garcetti said. Were there to be an
election result that is less international, more inward focused, maybe theres
even greater urgency to a bid like this.Garcetti adde: But even if that doesnt
happen, even the threat of that, the talk of that, the idea that we exclude
people based on who they are at our borders, gives us urgency to having things
like the Olympics undersscore who we are and what were about.

Sale. os Angeles bid chairman Casey Wasserman said the city will
continue to push the bid on its own technical merits.I dont think you can judge
a country by who runs for president, he said. I think you should judge a country
on who is the president and their beliefs and their policies. And clearly thats
something the members will take into account. But thats something I cant
control.Los Angeles is seeking to bring the Summer Olympics back to the U.S. for
the first time since Atlanta hosted the 1996 Games. The bid follows failed
attempts by New York and Chicago for the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, respectively.I
dont know if this is the last best hope, but I do think that after a few bids,
after a while, there will be real feeling of people tuning out in America, a new
generation that isnt connected with the legacy sports, said Garcetti, who
attended Rios opening ceremony on Friday night, 32 years after going to the
close of the 84 Games as a 13-year-old.Recent American bids have suffered from
anti-U.S. sentiment among some members in the European-dominated IOC, and
Garcetti said he is working to change that.There may be a general
anti-Americanism, but once you create a relationship with somebody, it becomes a
relationship with Eric and that person, he said. As we get to know each other
over time, they realize you cant slap a title, just like American and a
caricature of what that means on anybody.I want to listen, Garcetti said. I dont
want to just come in and say, Were the Americans, we get the most medals, we
bring in the sponsorships. That turns people off.He acknowledged there could be
a backlash among some IOC members to what they consider U.S. meddling in global
sports affairs, including the Justice Department investigation of world soccer
body FIFA and the U.S. Anti-Doping Agencys call for a total ban on Russias
Olympic team over state-sponsored doping.Ive been very careful to say, Look,
what prosecutors or anti-doping officials do, at least in our country, is
completely separate from what a mayor or a city government is about. Were not
involved at all.
