Nico Rosberg has extended his championship lead over Lewis Hamilton to 33 points with victory in the Japanese GP. Michael Jordan Jersey . Hamilton suffered a nightmare start, falling as low as eighth off the line, but launched a spirited comeback drive to minimise the damage by finishing third at Suzuka.But Hamiltons recovery drive was rebuffed through the final laps when he caught but was unable to pass Red Bulls Max Verstappen. Lewis Hamilton drops back to eighth after a poor start in the Japanese GP. As he launched a desperate attempt to overtake the Red Bull on the penultimate lap, Hamilton was driven off track by the typically-defiant teenager. Mercedes lodged a protest against Verstappens driving several hours after the chequered flag had fallen but later withdrew it. There is no protest from myself, tweeted Hamilton. Just heard the team had but I told them it is not what we do. We are champions, we move on. We take a look at Lewis Hamiltons battle with Max Verstappen from the Japanese GP. The damage, however, was done at the start when Hamilton lost more than five positions into the first corner of a race for the fourth time this year.I made a mistake, Hamilton admitted. Working my way up from there was tricky, but I did the best I could.Nico did a great job so congrats to him. After scampering off the line while his team-mate stumbled, Rosberg was able to cruise to a straightforward victory. With just four races of the season to go, Rosbergs lead of the championship is equivalent to a full race victory and a sixth place. Even if Hamilton is to win all of the remaining races, his championship hopes would still be dependent on Rosberg finishing at least one of those races below fourth.While Rosberg, who has won four of the five races since the summer break, now has one hand on the Drivers championship, the result confirms Mercedes status as Constructors champions for a third successive season.Sebastian Vettel, who threatened to turn the air blue over the lack of blue flags for backmarkers, took a modest fourth for Ferrari ahead of stable-mate Kimi Raikkonen as just five teams monopolised the points-finishing positions. Force India extended their lead over Williams in the teams standings as both Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez beat Felipe Massa and a faltering Valtteri Bottas in a straight fight.

His performance throughout the playoffs, and especially the final, did the trick. Kane, whose overtime goal in 2010 gave the Blackhawks their first championship since 1961, led Chicago in scoring in the 2013 playoffs. He finished with 19 points on nine goals and 10 assists, including nine points in his final 10 games. "Its much deserved," said captain Jonathan Toews, who won the Conn Smythe three years ago. "Theres a lot of guys in that room that could have won that. I dont think theres anyone better than him. They way he played down the stretch, we wouldnt be here without him. Hes a hell of a player. Im very happy for him." Kane joked that goaltender Corey Crawford (1.84 goals-against average and .932 save percentage) was snubbed. Cases also could have been made for left-winger Patrick Sharp and Boston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask. But Kane was one of the Blackhawks major catalysts, especially once coach Joel Quenneville reunited with Toews and Bryan Bickell on Chicagos No. 1 line. "I think it speaks more for my team than myself, personally," Kane said. "Playing with great players, it was the best year of my life just playing with these guys." Kane scored twice in Game 5 to put the Blackhawks on the verge of their second title in four years and was on the ice for two more goals in Mondays Game 66 clincher at TD Garden. John Paxson Jersey. Nothing about those performances surprised Dale Hunter, who coached Kane with the Ontario Hockey Leagues London Knights in 2006-07. Hunter recalled on Monday when his brother and Knights general manager, Mark, called Kane into his office 10 games into a season that began with six or seven goals and a few assists. "(Mark) said, OK, Pat, youre playing outstanding and adjusting to junior-A fine, and youre doing really good," Dale Hunter said. "(Kane) goes, No, no, you havent seen me yet. Im better than that." Its hard to see Kane playing any better than he did in this Cup final and in parts of these playoffs. He had a hat trick, including the overtime winner, to send Chicago past the Los Angeles Kings in the Western Conference final. "When hes playing with the puck, hes so dynamic and skilled and fun to watch," Sharp said. "Sometimes we watch him a little bit too much. But hes a great player and once he started to get it into gear he was going to be lights out. He was lights out in this series and the last couple games against L.A." Being lights out, Kane said, had a lot to do with his teammates and linemates. "We actually came up with a name for myself this morning, calling me the Benefish, for the beneficiary of all their hard work," Kane said. "I had a couple chances to finish and ended up doing that, so got to give them the credit. "It ended up working out."
