Rossi ends Stoner's spell with slick win in Qatar

Defending world champion Valentino Rossi of Italy won the Qatar Grand Prix on Sunday after Casey Stoner crashed out early in the season-opening Moto GP race.

Rossi finished 1.022 seconds ahead of Yahama teammate Jorge Lorenzo of Spain for his 104th career win and his first in the opening race of a season since 2005 at Jerez, Spain.

Stoner was aiming for his fourth successive win in Qatar, but the Australian skidded off the Losail International Circuit while leading the race in lap five.

"I was fast enough to win," Rossi said. "It became easy after Casey went out, but it is great way to start a season. This win is great for myself, my team and my supporters."

Andrea Doviziso of Italy was 1.865 seconds back in third.

The 31-year-old Rossi finished in 42 minutes, 50.099 seconds in what is the only night race on the 17-stop Moto GP calendar.

Nicky Hadyen of the United States was in the top three at one stage but was overtaken by Lorenzo and Doviziso to finish fourth.

"I did my maximum to overtake Hayden and I am glad I did that," Lorenzo said.

Ben Spies, Randy De Puniet, Dani Pedrosa, Colin Edwards, Loris Capirossi and Hiroshi Aoyama completed the top-10 riders.

Earlier, Japanese rider Shoya Tomizawa won the first ever Moto2 race. The new 250cc category, which has all riders using Honda-built 600cc four-stroke engines and Dunlop tires, contained 41 riders for the first race.

Alex Debons and Jules Cluzel were next.

In the 122cc category, Nicolas Terol of Spain won to edge Efren Vazquez and Marc Marquez.

Woods returns to golf by finishing 4th at Masters

By most standards, Tiger Woods' comeback would be deemed a success. He contended for a fifth Masters title when some wondered if he'd even make the cut. He took a step toward winning back fans who were appalled by the serial cheating on his wife.

Woods didn't see it that way.

He came back to the Masters to win, not just contend. To him, there was no joy and no relief in tying for fourth in his first tournament in five months, only disappointment and frustration.

"That's not what I wanted," Woods said Sunday after finishing five strokes behind Phil Mickelson. "I wanted to win this tournament. As the week wore on, I kept hitting the ball worse."

He had vowed to tone down his emotions, try to smile a little more, acknowledge the fans every now and then. But that even temperament quickly faded as the poor shots piled up. He yelled at himself several times, loud enough for the gallery to hear and the television microphones to pick up. He flipped clubs away in anger.

Afterward, Woods got a bit testy when asked if the new Tiger was still a work in progress.

"I think people are making way too much of a big deal about this thing," he said. "I'm not going to be walking there with a lot of pep in my step because I hadn't hit a good shot yet."

Woods did hit some good shots, of course. The best Sunday was an 8-iron that he holed out from the fairway at No. 7 for an eagle. He followed with back-to-back birdies and made the turn just three strokes out of the lead, looking as though he was ready to make a charge.

But Woods has never come from behind on the final day to win a major, and this one wasn't any different.

Another errant tee shot at the 11th led to a bogey. Then, an inexplicable three-putt from 6 feet ended his hopes at the 14th.

He did bounce back to make an eagle on the par-5 15th, but Mickelson was pulling away at that point. A short birdie putt at the final hole only assured that Woods tied K.J. Choi for fourth place.

"I had another terrible warmup," Woods said. "I didn't have it. And it was pretty evident."

He yanked his opening drive into the adjacent ninth fairway and wound up with a bogey. Two more bogeys followed in the next five holes, and he was on the verge of falling off the leaderboard.

Even though he turned things around before heading to the back side, Woods never felt he was a serious contender.

"I still was pretty far out of it," he said. "The guys were making birdies on the easier holes and for most of the day I was four, five, six back. It's a long way to climb and I was still making mistakes out there. I made too many mistakes."

He seemed a little hard on himself.

But when Woods decided to return to golf at one of the biggest tournaments on the schedule, a place where he had captured four of his 14 career major titles, it was all in for the world's top-ranked player.

He was here for a fifth green jacket. Nothing else was acceptable.

"I entered this event and I only enter events to win," said Woods, whose wife Elin did not attend the tournament. "I didn't get it done. I didn't hit the ball good and I made too many mistakes around the greens. Consequently, I'm not there."

This was Woods' first tournament since November. A Thanksgiving night car crash had ripped his personal life apart, revealing a golfer with an impeccable reputation who was actually leading a sordid double life.

For a while mistresses were coming forward on an almost daily basis. Woods went into hiding and tried to figure out how to save his marriage. He even checked into rehab for 45 days, hoping to learn how it all went wrong, a process of self-examination that he admits revealed plenty of flaws.

Despite his disappointment Sunday, Woods clearly made the right personal decision to make his return at Augusta; it exhibits more control over ticketing and media credentials than any other tournament. Everyone expected the fans would be polite, and they seemed to warm to Woods as the week went on. The muted applause got louder and louder when it became apparent he would be a contender.

It might be different at future tournaments, where the crowds are rowdier and the tabloid media may have more success gaining access.

Woods is more concerned about getting his game in shape.

"Other than my backswing going bad and my downswing going bad, it wasn't too bad," he griped.

Woods said he's not sure when he'll play again, but the next stop in his comeback figures to be the Quail Hollow Championship, which begins April 29 in Charlotte, North Carolina. That would give him a tuneup for the Players Championship the following week, considered the biggest event on the PGA Tour outside of the four majors.

"I'm going to take a little time off," is all Woods would say, "and kind of re-evaluate things."

Barcelona's Iniesta out for a month

Barcelona will be without key midfielder Andres Iniesta for its Champions League semifinal matches against Inter Milan.

The club said Tuesday that Iniesta injured a muscle in his right leg during training and will be out for up to a month.

A similar injury forced him to miss the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinal against Arsenal. He returned as a late substitute in the second leg and again in Saturday's domestic league clash against Real Madrid.

The 25-year-old Iniesta is also a key player for Spain, which is one of the favorites for the World Cup in South Africa.

Is Massa’s Formula 1 seat with Ferrari F1 up for grabs?

At this point, it’s nothing more than a rumor with conflicting and inconclusive reports from several publications, but Massa’s formula 1 career may be in for a turn as of 2011 with his Ferrari drive starting to get questioned.

Several Italian media sources have have reported on the story, but none have fully confirmed reports one way or another.

Some publications suggested that Ferrari’s Felipe Massa is close to extending his contract with Ferrari. Notoriously flaky (but also often correct) reports from German and Brazilian sources last week suggested the 28-year-old Brazilian is in talks to extend for another 3 seasons.

It is true that Massa’s contract is set to expire at the end of this 2010-11 season but do we want to be so rash as to suggest one way or the other so soon?

Contrary to expectations however some Italian sources have reported a more conservative line that (understandably so) Ferrari are not yet ready to finalize its 2011 driver lineup this early into the 2010 season. Most Ferrari driver announcements have traditionally been announced or inevitably leaked to the media around Monza and here we are just 3 races in.

When Italian publication ‘Sportevai’ spoke to Ferrari regarding the matter their question was simply sidestepped. A Ferrari spokesman replied that the subject is not on Ferrari’s immediate to do list and as put, “not currently a priority”.

Scandinavian sources (Turun Sanomat) however, are suggesting Robert Kubica (if the stars align) may make a move to Ferrari despite being under a long term contract with Renault past the 2011 season.

Regardless of reports, don’t expect to hear anything confirming Ferrari’s 2011 driver lineup until at least the end of the season.
