Hulkenberg targets top ten in drivers’ standings
Nico Hulkenberg is targeting a top ten finish in the drivers’ championship to cap off a strong season for Force India.
Fifth place in the constructors’ championship was confirmed at the previous race in Brazil courtesy of Huldenberg’s sixth place which leaves him tenth in the drivers’ standings. However, with Romain Grosjean and Max Verstappen both just three points behind, Hulkenberg has a personal goal of holding on to that position this weekend in Abu Dhabi.
Spurs beat Suns, stay perfect at home
Christmas might still be a month away but the San Antonio Spurs and Phoenix Suns are already in a giving mood, or so it seems from the two teams’ combined 49 turnovers in the Spurs’ 98-84 win versus the Suns.
Forward Kawhi Leonard led the Spurs with 24 points and 13 rebounds as one of four San Antonio players in double-figure scoring.
The Spurs remained unbeaten at home despite setting a season-high with 21 turnovers that resulted in 18 points for the Suns.
