Nico Hulkenberg thinks it was very strange for the stewards to ignore Lewis Hamilton going across Turn 1 at the start of the Mexican Grand Prix as it has set a confusing precedent going forward.Hamilton led off the line from pole but locked up into Turn 1, running across the grass and missing the Turn 2 apex completely. The world champion retained the lead and was not even investigated, something both Red Bull drivers questioned after the race.Hulkenberg does not understand how the stewards could reason the world champion did not gain an advantage.Lewis start thing was very strange, the German said. I mean if thats not gaining an advantage then I dont know what is gaining an advantage. Had there been a gravel trap or a wall he would have been in big trouble. I dont know necessarily gravel traps.Maybe something like [cones] we have at other tracks like Sochi or Monza if you go off there you have to go around a certain thing to make you pay the price. Because where he braked theres no way hes going to make the corner.When asked if It should have been a time penalty, he said: I was surprised afterwards that it wasnt even looked at.The other Mercedes also missed the Turn 1 apex, as Nico Rosberg banged wheels with Max Verstappen and had to bail out of the corner. Like Hamilton, he emerged from Turn 2 ahead and, despite a short stewards investigation, he was spared a penalty.Racing into Turn 1 everyone is obviously fighting for every inch and braking on the limit with sliding. As I saw it Max wasnt like turning the steering to squeeze him wide, he was just sliding.He was also on the limit and it just happened to be like that that Nico was on the outside and they were sort of wheel-to-wheel and he pushed Nico a little bit wide, but I think in a way it helped Nico because then he could cut and that gave him an excuse [to go wide]. Chad Green Jersey . Rob Manfred, baseballs chief operating officer, testified last week during the grievance filed by the players union to overturn Rodriguezs 211-game suspension. A person familiar with the hearing, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press on Saturday that Manfred testified the sport wasnt concerned whether Bosch distributed performance-enhancing drugs to minors because MLBs interest was his relationship with players under investigation.

Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. https://www.cheapyankees.com/741g-thurman-munson-jersey-yankees.html .
