Daytona Beach, FL (SportsNetwork.com) -- NASCAR announced a radical change to its qualifying format for the Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series on Wednesday, making it similar to knockout qualifying used for Formula One and IndyCar Series road/street course races. At NASCAR racetracks measuring 1.25 miles or longer in length, qualifying will consist of three rounds. Tracks measuring less than 1.25 miles will feature just two segments. NASCAR noted its revised qualifying format will not be used for the Daytona 500 (Feb. 23) and the Truck Series race at Eldora Speedway (July 23), which is the only national touring series event contested on a dirt track. It also wont be used for the Sprint Cup non-point races -- the Feb. 15 Sprint Unlimited at Daytona International Speedway and the May 17 NASCAR Sprint All- Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. "Were looking forward to the new qualifying format for all three of our national series this year," NASCAR vice president of competition Robin Pemberton said during a teleconference. "The new format is something that weve been looking at for quite some time. The goal is providing a more fan- friendly and exciting qualifying session for each race event across the board, with the exception of the Daytona 500 and Eldora, which are unique in their own right. "NASCAR fans will be treated to highly competitive elimination-based qualifying segments that will be more engaging to the fans in the stands and those watching on television or online." For those races on tracks 1.25 miles or greater, the first qualifying elimination round will be 25 minutes in duration and includes all cars/trucks. The 24 entries that post the fastest single lap from the opening segment will advance to the second round. The remaining cars/trucks will be sorted from their times in descending order posted during the first segment. The 12 cars/trucks that recorded the quickest single lap during the second round, which is 10 minutes in length, will then advance to the third and final segment, which lasts five minutes. Positions 13 through 24 will be based on lap times during the second round. Positions 1 through 12 will be determined during the final round, with the driver posting the fastest lap winning the pole position. There will be a five-minute break between each of the three qualifying rounds. For those tracks shorter than 1.25 miles, the opening segment in qualifying will be 30 minutes in duration and includes all entries. The 12 cars/trucks that recorded the fastest single lap time will advance to the second segment. The remaining field will be determined by lap times in descending order during the first round. Positions 1 through 12 will then be decided in the final segment, which is 10 minutes in length. "We believe the timing is right for this new style of qualifying, and for our drivers and teams, we believe that it will create even better competition leading into the event," Pemberton said. NASCARs new format is scheduled to be used for the first time on Feb. 21 when the Nationwide and Truck Series have qualifying for their season-openers at Daytona. Sprint Cup will utilize the format beginning with the March 2 race at Phoenix International Raceway.

Custom Los Angeles Angels Jerseys . Their 9-19 record remains identical to the crosstown rivals in Brooklyn and trails both Toronto and Boston in the Atlantic Division. Raymond Felton, their declining point guard, is back on the sideline nursing his third injury of the season.PHOENIX - Vince Wilfork still remembers the joy of being showered with confetti on the field where the New England Patriots won their last NFL title.Its something that you really cant put into words, he said of that celebration 10 years ago. Everybody looks at you as a world champion.Tom Brady was there, too, savoring his third Super Bowl win in four years.I was so young that I didnt understand what this was all about and how challenging this is, he said, because everything happened so fast at such an early part of my career.Now, in the latter part, theyre the only players from that team that beat the Philadelphia Eagles in Jacksonville, Florida, who are on the squad that will play the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl on Sunday night.Older and, no doubt, much wiser.As elder statesmen on a team with 17 players who werent on the club last season, Wilfork and Brady advise youngsters who have helped keep the Patriots near the top of the league despite considerable turnover — 10 AFC East titles in 11 seasons starting when Wilfork was a rookie.Now hes a six-time Pro Bowler at defensive tackle. As the roster has changed — 18 current players were drafted by the Patriots in the past five years — hes guided newcomers.I have a great group of guys, Wilfork said of his fourth Super Bowl team. I wanted to be a part of getting them there because its not about me. Its about all of them.Hes had that selfless attitude for years, a confirmed believer in coach Bill Belichicks team above all else philosophy.Belichick brings in new defensive players and Wilfork helps nurture them.On offence, thats part of a job description Brady embraces. And hes had plenty of different teammates to integrate into the complex system.Starting with their last championship team, hes completed passes to 33 different wide receivers, 20 running backs, 15 tight ends, three offensive linemen and two linebackers.But there have been two constants: Belichick and Brady.Coach is always pretty consistent with how hes dealt with our team, Brady said. You dont ride the highs and lows of the season. Whether its one winn or one loss, you just try to get better and make improvements, and youve got to play your best at the end.ddddddddddddThen theres the simple message, Do Your Job, delivered repeatedly when Belichick speaks and when players see signs posted on their way to meetings and practices.When we put that slogan out there, I think that comes along with eliminating any distractions, eliminating any noise that is being talked about, Wilfork said. Its more important for us now to just fall back on our words and do your job and if we do our job, well be in a good spot.Belichick added veteran receivers the past two seasons and both made significant contributions.Danny Amendola caught 54 passes last season despite being sidelined four games. Brandon LaFell caught 72 this season.Then theres Jonas Gray.The running back started only five games at Notre Dame, was waived by Miami just before the 2013 season and claimed by the Patriots off Baltimores practice squad last January. In his fourth game this season with the Patriots, he ran for 201 yards and four touchdowns.He, too, learned from the veterans.Its the Patriots way, Gray said. They get you in there and they teach you how to work. You learn from the leaders of the team. You learn from guys like Tom and Matthew Slater. You just follow their lead and the next thing you know, youre here at the Super Bowl.A much more significant off-season pickup who tried to knock down Bradys passes in seven years with the New York Jets learned quickly what sets him apart.His desire to be so competitive, star cornerback Darrelle Revis said. Ive never seen it. You could put him in the category of Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, just some of the great athletes in this world and Im talking different sports, too.On Sunday night, Brady will bring that intensity to his sixth Super Bowl, more starts in that game than any other quarterback.Its amazing, he said. Ive been very lucky over the years to play on great teams.Teams that kept winning no matter how much the roster changes.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Nike Celtics Jerseys Cheap Nike Nets Jerseys Cheap New York Knicks Jerseys Cheap Philadelphia 76ers Jerseys China Raptors Jerseys Wholesale Chicago Bulls Jerseys Wholesale Cleveland Cavaliers Jerseys China Pistons Jerseys Wholesale Indiana Pacers Jerseys Cheap Milwaukee Bucks Jerseys Atlanta Hawks Jerseys Online Cheap Nike Hornets Jerseys China Heat Jerseys Cheap Nike Magic Jerseys China Wizards Jerseys Cheap Nike Nuggets Jerseys China Timberwolves Jerseys China Thunder Jerseys China Blazers Jerseys Cheap Utah Jazz Jerseys China Warriors Jerseys Cheap Nike Clippers Jerseys Discount Lakers Jerseys Phoenix Suns Jerseys Online Cheap Sacramento Kings Jerseys Dallas Mavericks Jerseys Online Wholesale Houston Rockets Jerseys Wholesale Memphis Grizzlies Jerseys New Orleans Pelicans Jerseys Online Discount Spurs Jerseys ' ' '
