Lewis Hamiltons off-track lifestyle cannot be criticised while he continues to produce on the track, according to this weeks F1 Report guests. In a rebuke to his critics, Hamilton told City AM this week: It doesnt matter what the pundits say - Oh hes off travelling and partying - I turn up and I win. Dont talk to me about what I can and cant do. I define who I am, Im not defined by what people say. I might be in 10 different countries in a week, but Ill turn up at the track and kill it.The Formula 1 Gossip column Despite the criticism of his off-track lifestyle, Hamilton has won the last two World Championships and remains locked in a dogfight for this years World Championship with Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg after winning the United States and Mexican GPs last month. No matter what he is doing, if he turns up and produces a great result, then it doesnt matter what he is doing away from the race track because he is prepared in his mind and physically, Sky F1s Marc Priestley told this weeks F1 Report: Brazil preview. I think you have to judge it over three or four seasons and then perhaps look back. This is a long season, the longest we have ever had, and at the start of the season we saw him jetting off all over the place between races and you think maybe because it is a long and tiresome season that will come to play near the end.But in Austin and Mexico he has turned up like a new man, so you cant really judge him. Marc Priestley and F1 film maker Mario Muth believe they aren’t in a position to judge Lewis Hamilton over his lifestyle. The former McLaren mechanic also likened Hamiltons lifestyle to that of Kimi Raikkonen, with whom he worked at Woking.I remember when I was at McLaren and Kimi Raikkonen was at the height of his partying days and people criticised him left, right and centre, Priestley added. Yet at that time he was at the top of his game and one of the fastest drivers I have ever worked with. An established fan of social media, Hamilton frequently documents his own off-track activities for his fans, and F1 filmmaker Mario Muth suspects other drivers could be engaging in similar behaviour but with a lower profile. Whatever makes him faster, I think it is fine, said Muth. We just see more of what he is up to, Im not sure the others dont do the same thing. But he is just out there posting everything, so it gives people a reason to talk about it.He is obviously creating an image outside of F1 and these things help to do it, but we never saw Kimi - well, once, falling off a boat - but never really saw what he is doing. Nowadays it is very different. And Priestley believes globetrotting may be how Hamilton deals with the stress of being a modern F1 driver.Some things work for some certain people, he added. You could argue that you have to relax after a busy and stressful F1 weekend. Some people do that with their families, others go and party and travel.So we are not in a position to criticise him. Hes a triple world champion, he could go on to have more World Championships, so how could we possibly say he is not doing the right thing for him?Can Nico Rosberg clinch the title at Interlagos?

The game went to a short shootout. Devin Setoguchi failed to score, Duchene did, Andrew Ladd did not score, while PA Parenteau did and the game was over. It was the Jets 11th overtime game of the year (1-1 in overtime and 5-4 in shootouts.) The Jets close out the three game home stand Saturday afternoon against Dallas (TSN 1290). Wheeler led the way with six shots on goal; Little won nine of 13 face-offs, Dustin Byfuglien played 29:20. Trouba played 25:52 the second highest total of the season. Jets how have 14 power play goals, 11 of them scored at home. This from Blake Wheeler post game - "they took advantage of our mistakes. Weve been taking positives out of losses too long. We didnt do enough to win the game." Coach Claude Noel agreed. "Tough point to lose. We played really good in the first; we got the building involved with the two first goals, and then didnt do the same things in the second. We missed the net, didnt shoot very much. Again, its game management. Turnovers in our own zone. Then get out of the second period 2-2, regroup and away you go." The goal with 2.6 seconds made it 3-2 for Colorado a team that is now 18-0 when leading after two. "We came back in the third, our power play was good again," continued Coach Noel. "Then we get to the shootout and weve been on the good side and the bad side. Winning in the NHL is not an easy process. Were a .500 team and thats not good enough. In the conference we are in, its not even close." ' ' '
