SPIELBERG, Austria -- Lewis Hamilton won the Austrian Grand Prix on Sunday after colliding with Nico Rosberg on the final lap, an incident he blamed on his German teammate.The two Mercedes drivers touched as Hamilton sought to overtake and Formula One championship leader Rosberg ended up losing his front wing, which caused him to drop back to fourth.He made a mistake into Turn 1, went wide, I had an opportunity and I got a run into him, Hamilton said. I left a lot of room, but he locked up and crashed into me. He was in my blind spot, I dont really know what happened.I think he ... had a problem with his brakes but I am here to win, thats all, he said.Max Verstappen in a Red Bull was second and Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari was third.More than three hours after the race, stewards penalized Rosberg 10 seconds for causing the crash. The penalty did not change the finish order and left him in fourth. He was also reprimanded for continuing to drive a damaged car.Hamiltons 46th career victory cut the gap to Rosberg in the drivers championship to 11 points.I needed those points, I did everything not to give up and push all the way, Hamilton said.As Hamilton took the checkered flag, his engineer told him over the radio: Not the race we were after, but good work.I was on the outside, it wasnt me who crashed, replied Hamilton, a three-time Formula One champion who has won the last two titles.Mercedes had been hoping for a 1-2 finish and team chief Toto Wolff banged his fist when his saw a replay of the incident.Hamilton was later booed when he climbed on to the podium.Rosberg and Hamilton have a long history of clashes including a coming together at the Spanish Grand Prix in May that knocked them both out of the race, allowing Verstappen to become the youngest F1 winner.Rosberg had won the last two Austrian GPs and started from sixth on the grid after a penalty.Wolff told German television that the brakes on Rosbergs car were at the end.He (Rosberg) didnt give him enough space. Its a pity, it shouldnt happen, Wolff said.Team director Niki Lauda also blamed Rosberg, saying, Nico had tried at all cost to prevent Lewis from overtaking with non-functioning brakes.But Rosberg said that although his brakes had overheated everything was under control and that he was very surprised to see Hamilton make his move.Im gutted. Thats sport sometimes, but unbelievable, Rosberg said. I was sure to win, I lost in the last lap -- pretty intense.We were battling, and I was struggling a bit with my brakes and tires degrading, and that gave Lewis a chance. Nevertheless I was confident I could defend accordingly.I had the inside line. I went a bit deep into the corner but thats OK, I dictate, but I was very surprised Lewis turned in. Im frustrated about losing the win like that -- I was out front, felt great and was going to win the race.Hamiltons third win of the season was also the first race he won from pole. He led early but dropped back to fourth after a messy pit stop that included a slow change of his rear tire.Both he and Rosberg had to overtake the 18-year-old Verstappen after pitting for the second time.Sebastian Vettel of Ferrari had his right rear tire explode as he was leading the race on the 27th lap, allowing Rosberg to hit the front after the safety car departed. Vettel had started ninth, after a five-slot penalty.Tire supplier Pirelli blamed debris on the track for the blowout.The duel between Hamilton and Rosberg overshadowed another fine performance from Verstappen.Its an amazing day, great feeling to get the second podium of my career. For sure that was a good race today, the car was performing well, as were the tires, Verstappen said.I managed to overtake some cars at the start and had some good battles so that was really good fun. From there on I did my own race, Kimi was catching fast but I managed to hold him off until the end.Raikkonen said he felt Ferrari should have done better.Not an easy day for us. I did the best I could, Raikkonen said. We had good speed at the end, maybe I could have attacked Max without the yellow flags. With the speed we had I feel we didnt really get what we deserved.The yellow flags had come up after the crash of Sergio Perez in his Force India. Swell Flaske 500 Ml .

On Thursday night, the Oakland Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs will play the most important game of the 2016 NFL season so far.Its rare that a game this early in December has such strong implications for who wins the Super Bowl. On Oct. 16, the Chiefs went to Oakland and beat the Raiders 26-10. Another win on Thursday night would give Kansas City a sweep and a tiebreaker advantage over Oakland. Thats particularly important because the Chiefs have a schedule advantage in the final three games. Both teams go to San Diego, but the Chiefs also get the Titans and Broncos at home, while the Raiders get the Colts at home and the Broncos on the road.On the other hand, a Raiders win would give Oakland a two-game lead over Kansas City. Even with the easier of the two remaining schedules, thats almost insurmountable.So in simulations in which the Raiders win on Thursday, they go on to win the AFC West 88 percent of the time. In simulations in which the Chiefs win, they go on to win the AFC West 68 percent of the time. The division title, which comes with home-field advantage and a likely first-round bye, makes for a dramatic difference in the odds of representing the AFC in Super Bowl LI. Oaklands odds of making the Super Bowl are twice as good with a Thursday win (32.8 percent) compared to a Thursday loss (16.4 percent). Kansas Citys odds are more than twice as good: 22.dddddddddddd.6 percent with a win, 9.3 percent with a loss.Youll find our playoff odds for all 32 teams below.

New England Patriots (10-2)Odds of making playoffs: 99.2 percentThe Patriots rise to No. 1 in our ratings this week, but their playoff odds fall slightly behind Oaklands because the Ravens look like a much more dangerous opponent for this Sunday now. More important than playoff odds right now are the odds of getting the No. 1 seed, which will change substantially depending on the results of the Thursday night game. A Chiefs win would give the Patriots a one-game lead over both Kansas City and Oakland. The Patriots get the No. 1 seed in 67 percent of simulations where the Chiefs win Thursday, but only 33 percent of the simulations where the Raiders win Thursday. ' ' '
