Mercedes boss Toto Wolff believes Ferrari have only shown glimpses of the threat they pose to his team at 2016s opening two races. Despite Ferrari clearly appearing to have closed the pace gap on F1s world champions over the winter, Mercedes have made their strongest start to a season and dropped only three points from a maximum 86 across the first two rounds.By contrast, Ferrari already tail by 50 points in the Constructors Championship with their early-season total compromised by two reliability failures. But Wolff has warned Mercedes to keep on their toes ahead of this weekends Chinese GP.Asked in a Q&A on Mercedes YouTube channel to assess the teams start to 2016, Wolff replied: Very good. Two races in, one-two and one-three - it doesnt go much better [than that]. We havent seen the best out of Ferrari yet. They are struggling with reliability. We have seen glimpses of pace, they have definitely caught up and its more difficult for us.But, definitely, with our results I am happy.When is the Chinese GP on Sky?Ferraris points deficit after two races is their largest at this stage of the season since F1s current points format was introduced in 2010 and Mercedes have now won the last eight races - their joint-best run yet.But the Scuderia have taken heart from reducing the gap to the front and the fact Kimi Raikkonen finished just six seconds behind race winner Nico Rosberg in Bahrain.We are nearly there in qualifying, Arrivabene told Sky Sports F1. Kevin Eason from the Times feels Lewis Hamilton may be slightly distracted this season and Nico Rosberg is capitalising from it Theres a long way to go, so we need to work hard and be concentrated on our performance on the race.The Shanghai International Circuit plays host to this weeks third round of the campaign, with the circuit one of the hardest on the calendar for front-tyre wear.Mercedes, winners of the race in three of the last four years, have selected fewer sets of Pirellis quickest tyre, the supersoft, than Ferrari with Lewis Hamilton having one more set of mediums, and Rosberg one more set of softs, respectively than the Scuderias drivers.Dont miss the F1 Report: Chinese GP preview on Wednesday at 8.30pm on Sky Sports F1.

The future of the World Golf Championship remains muddled after Accenture decided this year not to renew its title sponsorship. PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem had said in February that he hoped to have a clear direction within a month or so. "This has been taking longer than we thought," Finchem said at The Players Championship. "Well see. We probably wont have anything to say for at least a few weeks." But an announcement out of Texas on Tuesday made one thing clear. There is no room on the schedule for the Match Play Championship between the start of the year and The Players Championship. The Valero Texas Open announced that it would be played next year on March 26-29, two weeks before the Masters. That means every day on the PGA Tour calendar is taken between the Hyundai Tournament of Champions (Jan. 9-12) and The Players (May 7-10). The Match Play traditionally wraps up the West Coast Swing at the end of February, except for in 2001 when it was played in Australia in early January. The Honda Classic, the start of the Florida Swing, will be held next year on Feb.dddddddddddd26 to March 1. Finchem did not rule out a return to Tucson, Ariz., which has an experienced host organization in the Conquistadors and Tucson is a strong golf market. "Where were going is an open question," he said. "Certainly, Tucson is a possibility." The tour is in talks with at least one potential sponsor, and its a remote possibility that the tournament simply takes a year off. One problem with that is the PGA Tour would have a hole in its schedule. The Byron Nelson in Dallas (under new sponsorship next year with AT&T) is to be played May 21-24. That would leave a week open after The Players. Finchem said in February that the tour was looking at a makeover for the Match Play because even the best players — Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, for example — are not guaranteed being around for more than one day in the current format of single elimination. Woods, Mickelson and Adam Scott did not play this year. The greater concern appears to be a title sponsor, which could play a large role in where the Match Play is held. But for 2015, the only open date before the end of the major championship season would be May 14-17. ' ' ' |
