MEXICO CITY, Mexico -- Sebastian Vettel was demoted to fifth place at the Mexican Grand Prix after the race stewards penalised him for dangerous driving while defending position from Daniel Ricciardo.The decision promotes Ricciardo to third and Red Bull teammate Max Verstappen to fourth, who was also penalised after finishing third on the road. The unusual set of circumstances means three different drivers have been classified third since the chequered flag fell, although Ricciardo will retain the position in the official results of the race.Vettel came under attack from Ricciardo at Turn 4 on the penultimate lap of the Mexican Grand Prix, squeezing the Red Bull driver to the inside of the track under braking. The two cars touched wheels as they locked brakes, but Vettel held position on the exit and neither had significant damaged.The incident occurred two laps after Vettel attempted to pass Verstappen for third at Turn 1, only for the Red Bull driver to skip the second corner and retain position. Vettel launched into a rant over team radio, arguing Verstappen should give the position to him, but the 19-year-old instead remained in front and backed Vettel into Ricciardo behind.Immediately after the race, Verstappen was penalised for skipping Turn 2, promoting Vettel to the podium where he accepted the trophy. Roughly three hours later, the stewards issued Vettel a 10-second penalty for his defence of Ricciardo, demoting him behind both Red Bulls and putting Ricciardo on the podium.The rule about moving under braking was introduced in the race notes at the U.S. Grand Prix after Verstappen was accused of defending second position from Lewis Hamilton in a dangerous manner at the Japanese Grand Prix. Vettel was among the drivers who welcomed the new rule, saying it had been an unwritten law when he entered F1.An FIA statement explained the decision in full: The stewards paid particular attention to the Race Directors Notes from the US Grand Prix and from this event. Notwithstanding the F1 Commission directive to let the drivers race we note the concern that has been expressed about manoeuvrers involving a change of direction under braking as expressed at the drivers briefing at the US Grand Prix and in the Race Directors Notes from the US Grand Prix and this event.The telemetry and video evidence shows that the driver of Car 5 did change direction under braking. Article 27.5 and the Race Directors Notes have essentially three criteria that determine a breach:1) Driving in a manner potentially dangerous 2) An abnormal change of direction 3) Another driver having to take evasive actionThe video footage, including the close circuit footage, the broadcast vision, both drivers on board cameras plus the telemetry show that there was an abnormal change of direction by Car 5 and this was considered to be potentially dangerous in view of the proximity of the wheels of each car. The video evidence clearly shows that Car 3 had to take evasive action as a result. Accordingly as all three criteria have been met, the driver of Car 5 is guilty of a breach of Article 27.5.

Martin Brodeur Devils Jersey . Fred Couples, captain of the U.S. side, put it all into perspective. "We know whos in charge," he said. Former India captain Rahul Dravid has said T20 is a complicated game that is not easy to decode. He is of the opinion that tactics in the format, especially in terms of squad building in the IPL, have sharpened to a point that the depth of conversations taking place in the franchises in recent years was not happening anywhere else.Dravid was reflecting on the evolution of T20 cricket on ESPNcricinfo Talking Cricket, a new, in-depth, interview-based show that begins airing on SONY ESPN on Friday. His experience in the format spans all nine seasons of the IPL and ranges from being a player and captain for Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals to being a mentor for Royals and Delhi Daredevils.Some of the conversations that happen around IPL teams ... these conversations are not happening outside, Dravid said about the strategy involved in team building. They are not happening in television studios as I have been on television studios, I know it. The depth of conversation thats happening about the T20 game within a team and within that environment is not happening anywhere else, which is what makes the T20 game unique.I wouldnt say there is no knowledge outside but there is not as much knowledge, I feel, and there are people wholl make comments like, Why is he doing this? Why is he doing that? without actually understanding the dynamics of why it happens, what happens inside.From being heavily skewed in favour of big-ticket international players, Dravid says teams have started to do their due diligence on Indian domestic talent, as evidenced by the most recent auction where Pawan Negi, M Ashwin and Krunal Pandya attracted huge bids.There is a lot more research being done. There is a lot more knowledge about young Indian domestic talent than there was say three or four years ago, Dravid said. Suddenly, everyone has access to a lot of these young Indian domestic talents ... and every team comes really well prepared to the auction. Its very rare to find young Indian talents that are unheard of and you can pick out of nowhere for really cheap.Dravid believed that the increased knowledge was a result of the Indian uncapped players being included in the player auction in recent years, as opposed to franchises being able to sign them outside the auction in earlier seasons. In the past maybe teams didnt focus that much on young Indian domestic talent because they could either go and get them outside the auction and they could keeep them and the whole auction was based around the international players, so there wasnt that much research in that sense needed.dddddddddddd But I think today most teams recognize that you need domestic talent, and all the talent is in the auction.The nature of the auction was unpredictable and fluid, Dravid said, an environment in which a single competitor for a player could force a change in plans. A lot of times I have gone into auctions and said, Okay, well get this player cheap because not many know him. All it requires is one other team to value that player and have money to spend and, you know, you could end up losing him because you cant match up in the auction.A good example of this years auction would be someone like Carlos Brathwaite. Who would have thought that he would go for the price [INR 4.2 crore] he did, but obviously KKR [Kolkata Knight Riders], who have a team in the CPL [Trinbago Knight Riders], knew about him as much as the people who are looking at the Delhi team knew about him. I think auctions are quite dynamic and they sort of vary all the time. Everyone goes in with a strategy, everyone goes in with tactics, everyone goes in with certain ideas but you have got to think on your feet.While admitting that managing a team in which some players have substantially bigger price tags than others was challenging, Dravid said the the harder task was to ensure playing time for everyone in a large squad.Sometimes players also may not understand the dynamic of an auction, they dont understand why certain players have gone for so much money and why someone else has gone for such less, he said. Players are getting better at it. They are also beginning to understand that sometimes the dynamics of an auction are quite unique ...The challenges in the IPL are more around playing time and players in the playing XI. I think thats one of the big challenges because you have squads of 23, 24, 25 and only 11 can play. You have only four foreigners who can play at any given point of time so that sometimes has more of an effect on a team than money. I think after some time, at least to the coaches and to the mentors, I dont think people bring up the money issue so much, at least thats my experience.Watch ESPNcricinfo Talking Cricket with Rahul Dravid at 9.30 pm (IST) on July 8 (Friday) on SONYESPN ' ' '
