Fernando Alonso says he dreamed of taking a shock podium finish after making a storming start to the Singapore Grand Prix.Having qualified ninth on the grid, Alonso took advantage of a quick getaway, and a first-lap incident involving Force Indias Nico Hulkenberg, to move into fifth place at the end of the opening lap. The Spaniard went on to finish seventh at Marina Bay.Alonso admits he allowed himself to start thinking about the possibility of claiming what would have been McLarens first podium since Australia 2014 due to the unpredictable nature of the Singapore Grand Prix.?At one point I dreamed of the podium because on lap one being P5 in Singapore you think things will happen in front of you, said Alonso. But nothing happened today and they arrived very quickly behind, Vettel and Verstappen.After initial pre-race optimism that McLaren could be the fourth best team at Singapore was quelled on Saturday, Alonso feels he got the most out of Sundays race.So best of the rest -- seventh was the maximum. I think today we maximised what we had in hand and hopefully next time we can improve. We were not the fourth quickest team here so to make the seventh place is thanks to the strategy and the guys today, so I am happy.The two-time world champion explained his decision to go to the outside on the run into Turn 1, which crucially meant he avoided getting caught up in the chaos at the start, as Carlos Sainz and Hulkenberg tangled, sending the latter spinning into the pit wall.I chose the outside because the first couple of meters were good and then the first corner I braked late to pass Kvyat and nearly Raikkonen, said Alonso. The crash didnt effect much because I was already sixth at that position, so the start was very good.Everything went fine this time, sometimes we need to get lucky. Sometimes there is a narrow line from hero to zero and today was a good one. Black Nike Air Max 2018 .

LONDON -- Manchester City achieved its second profit under its Abu Dhabi owners prior to a bout of heavy spending on players in the offseason which is aimed at title challenges in England and Europe.As City disclosed its annual financial results, chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak said Tuesday that the Premier League club has started a critical new phase in the transformation that began with the 2008 takeover by Sheikh Mansour, a member of Abu Dhabis oil-rich ruling family.Profits nearly doubled to 20.5 million pounds ($25 million) in the 2015-16 season, when the only trophy was the League Cup, prompting the replacement of Manuel Pellegrini as manager with Pep Guardiola.City did reach the Champions League semifinals for the first time last season, losing to eventual champion Real Madrid, but only finished fourth in the Premier League. The response was providing Guardiola with around 170 million pounds ($207 million) to lavish on fresh talent in the summer transfer window, including defender John Stones and winger Leroy Sane.I believe the 2016-17 season represents the beginning of a critical new phase in the evolution of Manchester City, Al Mubarak said in a statement. We know that we have the playing, coaching and off-field capabilities at our disposal to achieve great things in English and European football in the years ahead.City, whhich won the English title for the first time in 44 years in 2012 and then again in 2014, is top of the standings after eight games.dddddddddddd City has never won the European Cup and Guardiola faces Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday with the team two points behind his former club in Group C.City has had an uncomfortable relationship with the Champions League and competition organizer UEFA, which previously restricted the teams spending and squad size as punishment for breaching Financial Fair Play rules following large outlays on transfers.With limits on how much its wealthy owner can inject into the club, City has focused instead on generating more cash. Citys best Champions League run helped to drive revenue up 11 percent to a club record 391.8 million pounds ($478 million) in 2015-16. Citys neighbor Manchester United last month reported annual revenue of 515.3 million pounds ($628 million).Manchester City is the dominant club in the City Football Group -- which also includes teams in New York, Melbourne, Yokohama -- and was valued at $3 billion last year when a Chinese consortium took a 13 percent stake.---Rob Harris is at www.twitter.com/RobHarris and www.facebook.com/RobHarrisReports Cheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Discount Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Baseball Jerseys Free Shipping Cheapest College Jerseys Sale Cheap Football Jerseys China Nike NFL Jerseys Canada Wholesale NHL Jerseys From China MLB Jerseys Outlet Canada Wholesale NBA Jerseys Canada Store Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap Authentic Jerseys Canada ' ' '
