Sebastian Vettel has been told he has to earn a contract renewal at Ferrari beyond 2017 by team boss Maurizio Arrivabene. Vettel has been urged to focus on the car by Arrivabene following suggestions he is trying to replicate Michael Schumachers dynamic with the team, with the seven-times world champion famed for involving himself in every part of the Scuderias operation.Amid a frustrating season for Ferrari, in which they have failed to win a race and have slipped behind Red Bull as Mercedes nearest challengers, four-time champion Vettels own form has come under scrutiny with team-mate Kimi Raikkonen posing a closer challenge than in 2015. Vettel crashed out of last weeks Malaysia GP at the first corner, earning a three-place grid penalty for this weekends Japanese GP, and admitted at Suzuka his form had been up and down in 2016.The 29-year-olds three-year contract runs to the end of next season, but Arrivabene has hinted they will not be focusing on any renewal until 2017.Sebastian today has a contract with us, we have work to do this year, and also the next. During the season we will see, Arrivabene told Italys Sky F1 at the Japanese GP. Sebastian Vettel runs into Nico Rosberg at the start of the Malaysia GP. Everybody has an objective. I have, the team has, Sebastian has, everybody has. So its right everybody has to earn their position and salary.The departure of technical chief James Allison in July, and the teams admission that their development programme had stalled over the summer, has cranked up the pressure on an outfit whose last Drivers Championship success came nine years ago.Asked if Ferrari would do what they did during Michael Schumachers less successful early years at the team in the late 1990s and hand Vettel a new deal in times of trouble, Arrivabene replied: Today, times are a little changed in the sense that what worked with Michael might not necessarily work with Sebastian.Sebastian just needs to focus on the car. He is a person who he gives so much and that sometimes means an interest a bit of everything. [Vettel] does not do it with polemical spirit, he does it because hes completely immersed in what people call family but I call the team.Reacting to Arrivabenes eye-catching comments, Sky F1s Anthony Davidson said: They are strong words. You dont know who Vettel is talking to behind the scenes, but then again its the drivers job to help motivate the team and put the people in place you want around you, like Schumacher did.

Steve Bartkowski Jersey . -- Wide receiver Sidney Rice should be fully recovered from a torn knee ligament by the time the Seattle Seahawks start defence of their Super Bowl title, general manager John Schneider said Wednesday. CLEVELAND -- The Washington Wizards lost Nene to a knee injury, and then won the game with a strong effort on defence. John Wall scored 21 points, Bradley Beal had 17 and the Wizards beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 96-83 on Sunday night. Washington had a 66-63 lead midway through the third quarter when Nene departed with a sprained left knee. The Wizards then held the Cavaliers to 11 fourth-quarter points to return to .500 at 28-28 on the season. They also strengthened their hold on the fifth spot in the Eastern Conference standings. "Were a team right now thats just trying to play the right way and get on a roll," Wall said. Nene had eight points, four rebounds and four assists in 21 minutes. He was coming off one of his best games with the Wizards, when he had a career-high 30 points in Saturdays win over New Orleans, including the game-winning dunk with less than a second left. Coach Randy Wittman said Nene banged knees with Spencer Hawes and will get an MRI on Monday. Luol Deng led Cleveland with 17 points and the injury-riddled Cavaliers lost for the second straight time after winning six in a row. The Cavaliers played without centre Anderson Varejao (sore back) and guards Dion Waiters (hyperextended left knee) and C.J. Miles (sprained left ankle). While the Wizards are in good shape to snag a playoff spot in the weak Eastern Conference, the Cavaliers are five games out of the final post-season slot. Kyrie Irving, who scored 15 points, admitted that hes looking at the standings. "You have no choice but to pay attention to it," he said. "We want to accomplish something, but it starts with every single game. Time is of the essence right now." Washington led 78-72 after three quarters, and then grabbed control in the fourth. Two baskets by Kevin Seraphin, who replaced Nene, and five points by Beal helped the Wizards build a double-digit lead before Trevor Arizas 3-pointer with a little over a minute left made it 96-81. "We felt bad when he got hurt, but during the game, you have to keep focused the whole way, which we did," Seraphin said. The Cavaliers shot 49 per cent in the first half, but were 4 of 19 from the field in the fourth quarter. "The ball just seemed to stick in one area," Cleveland coach Mike Brown said.dddddddddddd "It was almost like we played in an elevator at times. It wasnt crisp like it was in the first half." Ariza scored 15 points and Marcin Gortat had 13 points and 13 rebounds. Hawes, playing his second game since being acquired from Philadelphia on Thursday, had 16 points and 12 rebounds for Cleveland. The Wizards used a 12-0 run midway through the first quarter to go ahead for good. Cleveland got within one point several times in the third quarter but never pulled even. The game featured two of the top young point guards in the league in Irving and Wall. Irving was the MVP of the All-Star game and Wall won the dunk contest. Wall ended the first half with a dunk and two 3-pointers in the final 1:21. He banked in a 30-footer to beat the halftime buzzer, giving Washington a 58-52 lead. Washington scored the first two baskets on a tip-in and a fast break after a bad pass by Irving, leading to a timeout by Brown just 31 seconds into the game. Browns message obviously worked as the Cavaliers took a 13-8 lead, but the Wizards scored the next 12 points to go ahead 20-13. The teams split the season series, with the road team winning all four games. "The last time we played Cleveland, we gave the game away," Ariza said. "They played harder than us the last time. We did our best to prevent that from happening again." Hawes made his home debut late in the first quarter. He had 13 points and seven rebounds in 14 first-half minutes.
