the last race in Brazil for Felipe Massa, who is leaving F1 after this season. Massa never won a season title, but he got painf Antworten

SAO PAULO -- With a third straight Brazilian Grand Prix title on Sunday, Nico Rosberg can match the feat of his famous father by winning the Formula One championship.Standing in his way is Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, the two-time defending champion.If Hamilton wins on the hilly course in Sao Paulo, the season title will be decided in the final race in two weeks in Abu Dhabi.I love the track, Rosberg said Thursday, 34 years after his father Keke Rosberg won his only F1 season title. It feels good and Ive always gone well here.Then, the German driver offered a caution.At the same time, this year we all start from zero, Rosberg said. Those past wins are not going to help me get a win this weekend. We all start from the same place.Beyond the victory, there are several scenarios under which Rosberg could claim the season title, even if he doesnt win the race. That depends on how far behind him Hamilton finishes.Hamilton, who trails Rosberg by 19 points, can keep the title chase alive in Brazil but he can only claim the championship -- it would be his fourth -- in Abu Dhabi.Its a real challenge to come here and try to win for the first time, Hamilton said. So thats my goal, and theres nothing really to lose.The two can expect little quarter. They should also expect a wet track with weekend rain in the forecast.Red Bull driver Daniel Ricciardo, third in the season standings but without a chance for the big prize, said he would not stay out of the fight.I think the championship will work out how it should work out, Ricciardo said. I dont think we should assist in the outcome. Just because they (Rosberg and Hamilton) are fighting doesnt mean we shouldnt try to overtake ifs theres a door open.Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel, who won four straight season titles between 2010-13, said others needed to respect the fact that the two Mercedes drivers have had the best seasons. He, however, did not say he would back off.Rosberg said he was expecting everyone to give their best.Of course, youre not going to take it easy just because one guy is fighting for the championship, Rosberg said.Sunday also marks the last race in Brazil for Felipe Massa, who is leaving F1 after this season. Massa never won a season title, but he got painfully close.In Brazil in the final race of the 2008 season, Massa won the race but lost the season title by one point to Hamilton when the Englishman overtook on the final lap to finish fifth -- getting the point he needed to edge Massa.I think it will be a very special weekend for me, for my last home race -- a place where I grew up, Massa said. This is a place where I remember I was in the grandstand watching and supporting Ayrton Senna and Nelson Piquet.Senna and Piquet each won three F1 season titles.Theres no doubt hes one of the most talented drivers on the grid, Vettel said of Massa, who raced for 15 seasons. But apart from that, hes a great person. Hes the kind of guy you look at and you smile -- because hes just smiling from the inside. Its his weekend.It will be, except for Rosberg and Hamilton.---Stephen Wade on Twitter: http://twitter.com/StephenWadeAP .

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Crisp passing helped lead to easy baskets for No. 5 Louisville in a rout of Belmont.Asia Durr and Ciera Johnson scored 18 points apiece as the Cardinals beat Belmont 73-50 in the home opener on Sunday.Mariya Moore added 13 points and six assists for Louisville (2-0), which shot 47.7 percent from the field, compared with 32 percent for Belmont (1-1). The Cardinals had 21 assists, surpassing 20 for the second consecutive game.I was pleased with how we passed the basketball, I thought we took care of it well, Louisville coach Jeff Walz said. Everybody is a threat to score on the team and that is what helps us.After scoring a career-high of 24 points on Friday, Durr continued her hot start to her sophomore year with 7 of 12 shooting, including 4 of 8 from 3-point range.Louisville opened the game 7 of 10 from the field and took a 10-point first quarter lead.In the second quarter, Belmont cut Louisvilles lead to nine after a 7-0 run capped by a 3-pointer by Kylee Smith. Walz called a timeout and the Cardinals ended the final 4:16 of the first half on a 15-2 run.When you have players like Asia, Mariya and BJ (Briahanna Jackson) it makes it a lot easier (to score) because it was one-on-one in the post, Johnson said.Despite the 23-point win, Walz was not satisfied with his teams performance on the glass, in particular Louisvilles offense rebounding, or lack thereof.We have to get better at it, Walz said. Getting out-rebounded by 20 isnt too impressive.Smith scored a team-high 13 points for Belmont.BIG PICTUREBelmont: The Bruins return five starters and their top nine scorers from their NCAA Tournament teeam last year, but they had trouble scoring against the Cardinals length and pressure defense.dddddddddddd Belmont wont face many teams with Louisvilles length and size in the Ohio Valley Conference. The Bruins were selected as the OVCs preseason No. 1 team.Louisville: After making seven 3-pointers on Friday, Durr made four on Sunday, scoring 11 points in the first period. Possibly overshadowed by Durrs performance, Johnson was a force in the low post, going 6 of 7 from the field and 6 of 9 from the free-throw line.POLL IMPLICATIONSBelmont: The Bruins received four votes in The Associated Press preseason Top 25, but their four votes werent enough to earn them a ranking. They are unlikely to be ranked after losing to Louisville.Louisville: Ranked fifth in The Associated Press preseason Top 25, Louisville is expected to stay behind Notre Dame, Baylor, UConn and South Carolina in the poll released Monday.RETURN TO LOUISVILLEBefore taking the head coach position at Belmont, Cam Newbauer served as an assistant at Louisville under Walz from 2011-13. Newbauer coached alongside Walz during Louisvilles 2013 run to the national championship.UP NEXTBelmont: Continues its four-game road trip to begin the season, playing Troy on Wednesday.Louisville: Will play its third consecutive game against a team from Tennessee, going on the road against Middle Tennessee State on Wednesday. Louisville and Middle Tennessee last met in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in 2013, where the Cardinals won 74-49. ' ' '
