Nico Rosberg has admitted Mercedes can no longer claim Ferrari are close after beating their rivals by almost a second in qualifying for the Russian GP. The Silver Arrows have stubbornly insisted Ferrari are causing them anxiety in 2016 despite Rosberg winning the opening three rounds of the campaign.And despite a mistake in Q3 preventing him posting an even quicker time after recording the two fastest sectors of qualifying on his final run, Rosberg was still over seven tenths clear of second-placed Sebastian Vettel in Sochi on Saturday. Here it looks like they are not very close, Rosberg told Sky Sports F1 after qualifying.Weve been saying all this time over the last few weeks that they are very close, very close, maybe we need to stop saying that for now because this weekend is looking very, very strong from our side. We look to have opened the gap. Rosberg on pole, Lewis pole-axed Nico secures pole position after fresh engine woe for Lewis The championship leader described his Saturday performance as exceptional and is in confident mood as he goes in search of a seventh consecutive grand prix victory.The first lap was good, but I had a bit more fuel so the second one would have been the quicker one, he added.But I was very confident that the first one was good enough for pole as I saw the gaps in Q2. It was feeling awesome out there so I went for an all or nothing lap and it didnt work out unfortunately.But it was a qualifying that was quite exceptional for me. Feeling wise the car came together, the balance, it was really good.While Rosberg celebrated, there was more unreliability on the other side of the Mercedes garage as Lewis Hamilton suffered a repeat of his power unit problem from China. More engine problems Lewis Hamiltons luck goes from bad to worse after fresh engine failure However, Rosberg doesnt feel he has to capitalise now as he has faith the technical problems will not strike his W06 machine.I dont really think I need to maximise now because I have confidence in the team to sort out the issues that we are having at the moment, Rosberg said when asked if he feared suffering similar reliability problems later in the year.I dont think about such problems, I just try to make the most of it and focus on the things that I can influence.

Unlike climbers who need more elaborate equipment, the pair relied entirely on their hands and feet and physical strength, using ropes and harnesses only for safety in case of a fall.Speaking Thursday to reporters, both men said they had been touched by the number of people who drew inspiration from their journey up a half-mile of pale stone.Jorgeson said the climb should illustrate the virtues of teamwork and teach people not to give up on their dreams.In an interview with The Associated Press, he said the experience recalibrates your perception of what you can do and whats possible. Now that weve done this, who knows what comes. I have a whole new bar for whats possible and what Im capable of personally.The trek began Dec. 27. In the 19 days that followed, the two lived on the wall itself, eating and sleeping in tents fastened to the rock thousands of feet above the ground and battling painful cuts to their fingers.They also took punishment whenever their grip slipped, pitching them into swinging falls that left them bouncing off the rock face. The tumbles, which they called taking a whipper, ended with startling jolts from their safety ropes.Caldwell described how support climbers provided them with fresh fruit and vegetables every five days. They also had Indian food, burritos and other pretty normal stuff, including coffee. For treats, the two enjoyed chocolate and Woodford Reserve whisky.We like to say you cant put a price on morale, Caldwell told the AP, speaking in a whisper because he had lost his voice from shouting so much during the climb.There wasnt much downtime, Caldwell said, but in spare moments he read from the autobiography of legendary climber Barry Blanchard.Asked why thee achievement resonated with so many people, Jorgeson said the Dawn Wall personifies dreaming big and making it happen.dddddddddddd Its just a super-concrete example and an iconic, beautiful place with amazing images and a great story of perseverance and teamwork and making it.Caldwell, 36, of Estes Park, Colorado, and Jorgeson, 30, of Santa Rosa, California, trained for years to get ready.Ken Yager, president of the Yosemite Climbing Association, noted past milestones on El Capitan, starting with the first people to make the climb in 1958, followed decades later by the first one-day ascent and the duo who set a speed record in 2012 at 2 hours, 23 minutes. The latest accomplishment adds to that history, Yager said.Caldwell and Jorgeson proved that theres still a golden age in Yosemites climbing, Yager said.Jorgeson said Caldwell first envisioned the climb in 2007. After seeing a short film about his ambition to free climb the Dawn Wall, Jorgeson called to ask Caldwell if he needed a partner.They started their plans in 2009.I never thought rock climbing could garner so much attention from the world, Jorgeson told reporters. Its kind of crazy and a little uncomfortable.Mike Gauthier, chief of staff for Yosemite National Park, said the climb celebrated human achievement.Adventure can still be found on public lands and in the national parks today in 2015, he said. Tommy and Kevin, thank you for showing us that.There are about 100 routes up the rock known among climbers as El Cap. Even the Dawn Wall had been scaled. Warren Harding and Dean Caldwell (no relation to Tommy) made it up in 1970, using climbing ropes and countless rivets over 27 days.No one, however, had ever made it to the summit in one continuous free-climb — until now.The pioneering ascent comes after failed attempts by both men. They only got about a third of the way up in 2010 when a storm turned them back. A year later, Jorgeson fell and broke an ankle in another attempt.This time, as the world watched and followed on Facebook and Twitter, Jorgeson got stalled in a lower section that took 11 attempts over seven days.I didnt want to accept any other outcome but getting up that route, Jorgeson said on Good Morning America. I tried to push all the negative thoughts of not being able to do it out and picture getting across that traverse, and thats eventually what happened.
