Max Verstappens performance in the Brazilian GP has been hailed as one of the best ever in Formula 1 history. The teenager produced an incredible display to claim third at the chequered flag having been as low as 15th with barely 10 laps remaining.His recovery was amazing, Red Bull boss Christian Horner told Sky F1. That was one of the best drives Ive seen in Formula 1. We gave him a huge amount to do and the way he drove those last 15 laps was unbelievable. Brazilian GP Report Brilliant Lewis Hamilton takes the title race to the wire Earlier in the race Verstappen had swept around the outside of world championship leader Nico Rosberg at Turn Three with another astonishing act of wheel-perfect daring.Referring to Toto Wolffs controversial call to Maxs father, Jos, Horner quipped: Play that one for Toto. Again, it was hugely brave, he went to the outside and just kept it planted in almost zero visibility.The Red Bull driver then held on to second place ahead of Rosberg despite a mini-spin on the penultimate corner that triggered what was described as the save of the season as the 19-year-old just managed to keep his car out of the barriers. Max Verstappen aquaplaned on the start-finish straight in treacherous conditions, but managed to save it to maintain second place in the Brazilian GP After pitting for intermediate tyres, Verstappen was then caught out when heavy rain started to fall again at Interlagos. Verstappen then pitted for a second time, relegating him out of the points, before launching overtake after overtake to rescue third.It was a move that the Dutchman feels may have cost him a victory, but he enjoyed himself nevertheless.Definitely, the Dutch driver told Sky Sports F1 when asked if the call had cost him. But it gave me more fun as well. We are not fighting for the championship and I had a good time.However, one man at Interlagos unimpressed with Verstappen was Ferraris Sebastian Vettel.Two weeks after clashing with Verstappen at the Mexican GP, Vettel slithered off the track as he was overtaken by Verstappens Red Bull and suggested afterwards that the move was illegal.I think I was racing him side-by-side, he saw me and I still had a little bit of my nose ahead, Vettel told Sky Italy. On the corner he got past, I dont think it was correct.Dont miss the F1 Reports Brazilian GP review on Sky Sports F1 on Wednesday at 8.30pm Also See: Hamilton takes title fight to the wire WATCH: Maxs save of the season WATCH: Kimi crashes out Latest standings Pierre Hojbjerg Jersey . -- PGA TOUR Canada member Steve Saunders took a three-stroke lead Saturday in the Web.

Arjen Robben Bayern Munich Jersey .C. Lions has come to an end. Banks told TSN on Jan 2 that he had no interest in playing out the option year of his contract with the Lions in 2014, and he again made that clear in a conversation with Lions GM Wally Buono last week. LAS VEGAS -- The game started with a near-capacity Thomas & Mack Center at a fever pitch for a highly-anticipated matchup between No. 1 pick Ben Simmons and No. 2 pick Brandon Ingram. It ended with another former No. 2 pick, DAngelo Russell, demonstrating he has ice in his veins with a 3-pointer at the buzzer.But in between, there was only one player who received M-V-P chants during the Los Angeles Lakers win over the Philadelphia 76ers: Larry Nance Jr., who was picked 25 spots after Russell in the 2015 draft.First of all, if anybody was the MVP, it was DAngelo, but I appreciated the chants, Nance said.It would have been hard to imagine any positive chants for Nance after a first half that saw him finish with more turnovers (four) than points (three).My energy was down, for some reason I just didnt have it, Nance said of his first-half struggles. Coach [Jesse Mermuys] pulled me aside and said Cmon man, its a different half, new ballgame, were going to win this game, and it just clicked.Things turned around quickly in the second half, when Nance put up 10 of his 13 points and grabbed 7 of his 8 rebounds to spark a Lakers comeback from 16 points down. He also finished with 7 steals, 4 assists and 4 blocks, doing a little bit of everything for the Lakers.He was awesome, said Mermuys, a Lakers assistant leading the summer league staff. I played him 35 minutes in a 40-minute game. He was dog tired at the end, but I wasnt going to take him out. He had earned those minutes to be able to finish it out.And the lift that he gave us in that run, we had taken some major punches. Our offense was brutal. Their pressure was really taking us out of everything we were trying to do. And he gave us a lift -- the big-time dunks were an incredible lift to us, obviously, the three he made was huge. And his toughness and energy -- unsung hero of the game,, no doubt.ddddddddddddNance, the son of former dunk contest champion Larry Nance threw down a pair of highlight-reel slams, both coming off plays he started by grabbing a defensive rebound and pushing the ball. The second-year forward says he believes that could be a much bigger part of his game going forward.We have the freedom to do almost whatever we want now, he said. Coach has given me his blessing to push the ball up the court, take the ball off the rim and push it up the court. If they commit to me, Ill kick it. If they dont, Im coming down the lane. Its a position that I love playing. I love going downhill with the ball, and I hope to continue to play like that.Russell had high praise for the way Nance played in Saturdays game, and what he means for the Lakers improvement going forward.Hes a winning piece on a winning team, the point guard said. Every team needs a guy like Larry. Hes always positive. Hes one of the most positive guys I know. Hes always positive. I dont know. Hes just a great guy off the court and then on the court, hes a dog. So it leads up to him just playing hard. All his plays are like motor plays and just getting everybody going, setting great screens for the point guards or the guards coming off screens. He just knows how to play.Rookie center Ivica Zubac said Nances energy and enthusiasm are a huge part of what he brings to the team.It really means a lot. Every time somebody is down, he comes to that guy and helps him, Zubac said. You feel better after that and you play better.As for those MVP chants, Nance said it made him feel like a Lakers legend -- if only for a moment.I felt like Kobe [Bryant] for a little bit, he said. Although, I missed the free throw. It got to me. ' ' '
