SPIELBERG, Austria -- Lewis Hamilton claimed a dramatic last-lap victory at the Austrian Grand Prix after colliding with teammate Nico Rosberg while passing for the lead. Miguel Rojas Jersey .?The battle had been brewing for several laps and Hamilton seized the opportunity on the outside of Turn 2, with Rosberg going deep into the corner and colliding with his teammate. The incident wiped out Rosbergs front wing and the championship leader had to crawl to the flag, dropping to fourth behind Max Verstappen and Kimi Raikkonen in the final corners.?Despite starting sixth, Rosberg led Hamilton for the majority of the race as he benefitted from an alternative strategy and two slow Hamilton pit stops. However, in the final three laps Hamilton closed on Rosberg and he finally got his chance to pass on the approach to Turn 2 on the final lap.Rosberg took the inside line, forcing Hamilton to try his chances on the outside, but the German -- who appeared to be suffering with a brake issue -- went deep into the corner and a collision became inevitable. The impact damaged Rosbergs front wing, making him a sitting duck on the following straight as Hamilton rejoined the track at full speed and retook the lead.Rosberg also faces an stewards investigation for failing to stop with a seriously damaged car, which could drop him further down the order. The result as it currently stands provides yet another twist in the tale of the 2016 drivers championship, with Rosbergs lead cut from 24 points to 11.Daniel Ricciardo will be disappointed to finish fifth ahead Jenson Button and Romain Grosjean, who both outperformed their cars to score solid points for McLaren and Haas respectively. Carlos Sainz recovered from an engine failure in qualifying to finish eighth ahead of Valtteri Bottas in the Williams and Pascal Wehrlein, who scored the first point of his career and Manors first point since Monaco 2014.The story of the raceHamilton led from the start but was shuffled behind Rosberg at the first round of pit stops. Rosberg pitted on lap 10 after working his way up to third place in the opening stint, while Hamilton waited until lap 21 to make his first stop. The long first stint appeared to be in reaction to Ferrari, whose cars both started on the super-softs and were running long into the race, but it ultimately cost Hamilton time compared to his teammate. By staying out on older tyres both Hamilton and the Ferraris lost out as Rosberg made up time with a series of impressive laps on his new set of soft tyres. After a 4.2s pit stop, Hamilton rejoined behind Rosberg on lap 21 but his tyres were 11 laps younger.Sebastian Vettel, who had yet to pit, dropped out of the lead after suffering a right-rear tyre blowout on a 27-lap old set of super-softs. The incident brought out a safety car for four laps, which played into Rosbergs hands by extending his stint length on soft tyres. There was some speculation over whether the Mercedes would finish without a second stop, as Verstappen and Raikkonen ultimately did, but on lap 54 it became clear the pair would have to pit again.Hamilton had a second slow stop as he took on another set of soft tyres, meaning Rosberg retained the lead when he pitted a lap later for super-softs. Initially the difference in tyre compound appeared to hand Rosberg the advantage, but an apparent brake issue in the final laps saw his small lead come under threat in the final three laps. Hamilton did not need asking twice, and after a couple of dummy runs on the 69th and 70th laps, finally lined Rosberg up for his move at Turn 2 on lap 71. The resulting collision could split the Mercedes garage once more, with team boss Toto Wolff calling the incident brainless, but sets the scene for a tantalising British Grand Prix at Silverstone next weekend.

I dont want Trevor to play OK or good, Kubiak said.Elway said Tuesday hes pleased with the teams record and also expects the Broncos to go on another post-bye roll.I think we would take it if you said at Week 10 wed be 7-3 with whats happened, Elway said. We havent played our best football yet, which I think is the encouraging thing.But weve played hard week in and week out, and so Im excited about our possibilities and what we can do. I know that the schedule is a tough schedule from here on out, but thats what happens when you win the division. But were excited about it.We feel like we can get better on the offensive side. We have room for improvement there. Weve figured out ways to win. Thats what you have to do. Were excited about the last six.Siemian said he relishes the rising expectations.Kube expects a lot out of me. I expect a lot out myself truthfully, Siemian said.To do that, he knows he has to stay upright.Siemian took a beating in Denvers 25-23 win at New Orleans on Sunday when he was sacked six times, hit on 11 other drop-backs and tackled on three runs. Thats an agonizing total of 20 shots on that sore left shoulder thats bothered him since it was driven to the turf in Tampa on Oct. 2, forcing him to sit out the next six quarters.Hes beat up. He took a lot of shots, Kubiak said. Some of them he has to take responsibility for. We have to make sure that hes stepping up in the pocket.Aside from the dazzling defensive 2-point conversion that won it, thhe takeaway image from the Superdome was Siemian on his back, his arms outstretched toward the roof in celebration after getting hammered while throwing a touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas. Wei-Yin Chen Jersey. The reason he does make a lot of plays is because he will sit in there and get hit right in the mouth and make a play. That is a great characteristic of a quarterback because you have to do that sometimes, Kubiak said.Kubiak then added this caveat: Siemian needs to protect himself better. This, even though five of the sacks and both of Siemians interceptions Sunday came on four-man rushes, meaning the Broncos had the blockers, but still couldnt protect the passer properly.Right now, sometimes his depth is bad in the shotgun, Kubiak said. Its something weve got to work on. When its good, hes stepping up. Sometimes hes drifting and getting hit when he shouldnt be getting hit.He gets on the road, gets loud, you get in the gun, you start getting away from the center a little too far and now all of a sudden youre back there hitting 11 yards. Were not going to protect you if youre doing that. Its just something that we have to improve with him.That was Kubiak defending his beleaguered lineman, something hes willing to do because hes as much assured in Siemians psychological doggedness as he is in his physical toughness.The bye week will provide the coaching staff the opportunity to reconfigure Siemians pocket of protection.Ty Sambrailo replaced an ineffective Donald Stephenson at right guard midway through the game Sunday, when the Broncos broke out of a prolonged funk and had zero three-and-outs in a dozen drives.Kubiak said Tuesday that Sambrailo deserves to play a lot more football.Like a seasoned veteran, Siemian placed plenty of the blame for his aches and pains on his battered shoulders.A lot of times Im holding the ball too long and I get what I deserve in that sense, Siemian said.He said this five-day furlough that begins Wednesday is all about letting his battered body heal.Yeah, a lot of rest, Siemian said. Wont be doing much bench press this week.Hell be doing the heavy lifting soon enough.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton ' ' '
