teenager Verstappen has provided just as many opportunities to learn

HScott Motorsports, which fielded two Sprint Cup cars during the 2016 season, has suspended operations and will not compete in NASCAR in 2017.The team did not have any drivers nor sponsors lined up for next season. Driver Clint Bowyer, who finished 27th in the standings, had signed a one-year deal in September 2015 as a stop-gap before heading to Stewart-Haas Racing to replace Tony Stewart in 2017.Michael Annett, who has the Pilot Flying J sponsorship, finished 36th in the standings and opted to take that sponsor to JR Motorsports and compete in the Xfinity Series next year.Team owner Harry Scott formed the team after purchasing Phoenix Racing from James Finch in 2013. Scott had fielded two Cup cars the last two seasons.Over the past several months I considered a number of options for moving forward with the team, Scott said in a statement. Regrettably there are no viable sponsor/driver options immediately available to allow the team to participate in 2017.One thing I learned about NASCAR is that it is a people business. I will forever be grateful to the men and women who worked tirelessly to make HScott Motorsports successful.Scott had leased a charter from Premium Motorsports owner Jay Robinson for Annetts No. 46 car in 2016. That charter was returned to Premium, who then sold it to Furniture Row Racing, which is adding a car for rookie Erik Jones next season. Premium then bought the single charter Scott owned for the No. 15 car of Bowyer.Owners of the 36 charters carry a guaranteed starting spot -- and more guaranteed revenue than noncharter cars -- for every Sprint Cup race, where the field is a maximum 40 cars. A charter owner can lease a charter for one year but then must use it or sell it. Charter teams also get extra money based on their performance over the last three years, and any charter team that finishes among the bottom three teams for three consecutive years can have its charter revoked.That makes the charter of the No. 15 car for Bowyer -- the one Premium now has -- slightly more valuable than the charter of the No. 46 car it sold to Furniture Row. Not only did the No. 15 car have a better performance, the No. 46 car was among the bottom three charter teams in 2016, the first year of the charter system.I love this sport and being part of it, Scott said. I invested in NASCAR because I truly believe it represents the best racing competition in the world and the best people in all sports. Air Jordan 1 Ireland Sale .

On Tuesday, Ottawa placed forward Cory Conacher and defenceman Joe Corvo on waivers as trade rumours swirl around the Senators. Daniel Ricciardo says he has honed his racecraft this year by watching Red Bull teammate Max Verstappen.Verstappen was promoted from Toro Rosso to Red Bull in May, claiming a stunning maiden win at his first win with the team in Spain. The Dutch teenager has had mixed fortunes since then, with a handful of great drives tinged with several controversies following criticisms about his aggressive style.Ricciardos first Red Bull teammate was four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel in 2014 but the Australian says teenager Verstappen has provided just as many opportunities to learn new tricks.I think with Max and Seb as team-mates its obviously two different points in their career, Ricciardo said. But equally you can still learn from both of them. Sebs experience, the way he interacted with the team was pretty interesting to see. That was cool.And Max is coming in with a lot of youth, a lot of fire and energy. And some new ddriving techniques which, lets say, maybe the younger kids are doing.dddddddddddd So its interesting to learn from both of them.Its cool. I like having as many team-mates as possible, its great, because the more people you can learn off, the better I think it will make you as a driver.Ricciardo thinks Verstappen is as good a benchmark as Vettel was in 2014.I think Max is getting a lot of attention, hes the youngest ever F1 driver and winner. So I get asked about him a lot, as well, but its not a hindrance.For him obviously theres a lot of attention and pressure, but for me, I keep doing my thing. I know hes very talented. If I can get the upper hand on him then its a bit like with Seb -- theyre very highly regarded drivers -- so if I can just do the job against them then it only helps me out. ' ' '
