Kimi Raikkonen says a power unit issue in Q3 meant he had to settle for sixth on the grid as Ferrari faltered again in qualifying for the Mexican Grand Prix.Ferrari had looked strong in FP3 on Saturday morning, before Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel went second and fourth respectively in Q1. The team dropped off the pace after that as both drivers failed to unlock the full pace advantage on the super-soft tyres in Q2 and Q3, with Vettel saying the team should have had a car on the front row.Raikkonen feels his grid position is not a fair reflection of pace, with the engine issue in Q3 forcing him to abort his final run.?I felt my car was definitively better [than sixth] today, our qualifying lap times were better today, he said. Q1 was pretty OK, straightaway, we struggled a bit in Q2 to get the tyres to where we wanted them. The soft tyre worked pretty OK but I lost a bit in the last corners. Then, in Q1, the first lap was pretty decent, but I felt I lost time in a few places.Then I had an odd feeling in the last run, we had some issue with power in the last set of tyres and could never use them. I feel there was a lot of lap time that we never got, because we didnt use the second set of tyres. It was a bit of a struggle because I took it a bit easy in the first run of Q3, so I think the position we are in doesnt show the lap time we could achieve. It was just unfortunate that it went like that.Raikkonen says he takes little comfort in out-qualifying teammate Vettel, who had to settle for seventh, due to the fact they will both start lower than expected.Not really important for me. When we are 6th and 7th... If we would be fighting at the front ... Right now I dont feel it gives anything, we struggled with the issue. I thought the car was pretty decent but with the small problem we had I couldnt run and it cost us quite a few places. But this is how it is today and we have to go forward. Tomorrow I think we can be much stronger.A small comfort for Ferrari will be the fact both drivers made it through Q2 on the soft tyre, meaning they will start on a more durable compound to the Red Bull drivers and Nico Hulkenberg ahead.

After 8-4 and 3-2 losses, the latter in walk off fashion, Jose Bautista was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a bone bruise in his left hip. The slugger said he was injured on a scoring play, in a home game a couple of weeks ago, and the pain continued to build to the point he removed himself in the fourth inning on Tuesday afternoon. "It just kept getting worse and worse and worse," said Bautista. "It got to the point, (Tuesday) after a day off and taking anti-inflammatories it just got to enough pain that I got a little worried. Decided to go check it out and it was no surprise from the doctor that I was in some pain." Bautista will remain with the ball club has takes to rest and treatment for the injury. One week from now, Bautista will begin to ride the exercise bike. Toward the end of his stint on the disabled list, Bautista is eligible to return for the September 6 game in Minnesota, hell be reevaluated and if given the green light by doctors, will begin baseball activity. "Im not expecting to be shut down," said Bautista. "From what the doctor said, I have full trust in his diagnosis, from what he said after the two weeks he expects the bone bruise to be somewhat healed, if not completely. After that a couple of days of baseball action and Ill be ready to go." In 118 games this season Bautista has a slash line of .259/.358/.498 with 28 home runs. "I dont think Im doing this team any favours being out there and not being ready to play," he said. Meantime, Maicer Izturis sprained his left ankle running out a ground ball in the fifth inning of Tuesday nights game. Hes listed as day to day and neither Izturis or manager John Gibbons could confirm Izturis availability for Wednesday. Moises Sierra is the only outfielder remaining in the minor leagues on the Blue Jays 40-man roster. Expect Sierra to be recalled on Wednesday. In 100 games with Triple-A Buffalo, Sierra has a slash line of .261/.309/.422 with 11 home rruns and 106 strike outs.dddddddddddd REYES LIKES LAWRIE AT THIRD BASE Jose Reyes left ankle, which was badly sprained on April 12 and cost him 66 games, wont be fully healthy until next spring. Reyes likes the look of the left side of the infield, provided he and Brett Lawrie can avoid injury. "Hes one of the best third basemen, defensive wise, I mean hes very good out there," said Reyes. "I dont know what the team was doing when they tried to make him a second baseman. I dont know where that idea came from because if you see him playing third base hes good there, very good. You know, thats good to see." Reyes was at short, Lawrie at third in the first game of Tuesdays doubleheader with the Yankees. Thanks to injuries and a brief attempt to play Lawrie at second base, the Jays have lined up with Reyes and short and Lawrie at third only 25 times this season. SATURDAYS STARTER UP IN THE AIR With Esmil Rogers and Mark Buehrle both making Tuesday starts, the Blue Jays need a pitcher for Saturday. "Im not sure which direction were going to go, you know, to be honest with you," said manager John Gibbons. "Weve got enough front office guys in town for this series we ought to be able to figure it out." The Blue Jays have off days on August 29 and three in early September (5, 9, 16,) which will afford Gibbons the luxury of juggling his rotation. He says he intends to keep R.A. Dickey and Mark Buehrle on schedule, pitching every fifth day. KAWASAKIS CANADIAN SON Munenori Kawasaki is back with the Blue Jays after the birth of his first child, a son, Issho Airc Kawasaki. "Hes a Canuck, eh," said Kawasaki, whose wife gave birth in Toronto. Less than three days after the big moment on Friday, Kawasaki knows his life has changed. "Itll be tiring," said Kawasaki. "No sleeping but very happy." Kawasaki was activated from the paternity list on the off day Monday. Thad Weber was optioned to Buffalo but then recalled for Tuesdays games. Teams are allowed to carry a 26th player on doubleheader days. ' ' '
