For Ferrari the victory at Silverstone was like a rope that has been cast down into the abyss it is in. There's a new-found belief in the team that Sebastian Vettel can be stopped in his tracks. And more importantly, Fernando Alonso believes that he has the car to take the fight to the Red Bull camp, writes G. Raghunath.
Mayookha's gold, the only silver liningAfter their tremendous ‘high' at the Asian Games in Guangzhou last year, the Indians fell in the standings rather precipitously. From the No. 2 position in the Games, it was down to the eighth place with one gold, two silver and eight bronze medals, writes K. P. Mohan.
Politicians to the foreEveryone wants to be in the thick of things at the right time and with cricket currently at its peak, the scramble to grab a piece of action can only get more frenetic. Of course, getting into the administration is the best thing to do and if people can get into the fold as a group, there is nothing better than that.
Carver's centenary Jesse Carver, who once played centre half for Huddersfield Town and Blackburn Rovers, could have managed England if he wanted to. Though, given his endless propensity for walking out of his many clubs, one cannot imagine he would have long stayed in. Much to the anger of the Dutch, he had, after all, walked out on the managership of Holland.
Sunderland manager Steve Bruce is no stranger to raiding his former club, Manchester United, for talent. He was only too happy to offer Wes Brown a four-year contract at the Stadium of Light after a fee of around GBP1 million was agreed upon. If Brown can stay fit, it could prove to be one of the top signings of the summer. By Tom Leese.

They produced many an example of their sound skill level and fighting spirit against rivals from reputed countries like China, Malaysia and Indonesia. However, one distinct drawback in all the Indian competitors was the lack of strength to stay alive in keener and long-drawn contests, writes Y. B. Sarangi. Advt Links: calling card
