BUDAPEST, Hungary -- Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton will start from pole position for the fourth time this season after setting the fastest time in qualifying at the Hungarian Grand Prix on Saturday. The British driver sounded stunned when his team announced over the race radio that he had beaten three-time Formula One champion Sebastian Vettel at the end of the session. "Im really surprised," said Hamilton, who is looking for his first race win of the season. "Weve got a steep hill to climb tomorrow with these tires and these conditions." Hamilton clocked 1 minute, 19.388 seconds, just ahead of Vettels best lap of 1:19.426. "There wasnt much missing. Lewis did a really good job," said Vettel, who has never won in Hungary. "Its stupid to sit here and say We should have done this and we should have done that. I could be on pole, but still I think it puts us in a great place for tomorrow." Vettel, the defending champion, remains confident he can follow up his success at the German GP three weeks ago and clinch his fifth win of the campaign. "We should have a good race because the car feels fine," he said. Lotus driver Romain Grosjean, who was fastest in the final practice session, qualified third in 1:19.595 for his best grid position of the season. Hamilton, the 2008 F1 champion, will hope that the Hungaroring helps him end his winless run. He won here last year for his third victory on the track. But has not won a race since winning the United States GP in November. "Ive been fortunate to have a good car for quite a few years with McLaren," Hamilton said. "These guys (Vettel and Grosjean) are going to be ridiculously fast, so trying to keep in front or hold onto them is going to be the challenge." Red Bull and Mercedes have combined to take all 10 poles this season -- with Vettel getting all three for Red Bull. But Mercedes has a low conversion rate from the front of the grid. "Pole definitely helps, of course, because its very difficult to follow here, but it is a long way down to turn one," Hamilton said. "If you can hold pole into turn one then it will be advantageous. But as always, the race is going to be about the tires and trying to hold on to them." Nico Rosberg has won two races, while Hamilton is still looking to finish higher than third in a Mercedes that has great speed but lacks durability over a whole race. "Its been the same for a long time. Its not a surprise for us," Hamilton said. "Its great to have the pole position but it doesnt mean anything. Its in the race where we score points." Grosjean finished third at the German GP three weeks ago to end a run in which he failed to place inside the top 15 for four Formula One races. "I quite like this circuit, but it doesnt mean much unfortunately. The last lap was a pretty good lap," said Grosjean, who was third in Hungary last year. "Im happy to be back in the top three in qualifying." The track temperature on the Hungaroring circuit reached 122 degrees and stifling temperatures are expected for Sundays race with tire degradation expected to play a key part in the result. Red Bulls Mark Webber did not make a run in Q3 because of a problem with KERS, which can boost acceleration, and will start 10th.Authentic Philadelphia Eagles Jerseys .

Umberger scored twice to lead the Blue Jackets to a franchise-record for consecutive wins with a 5-3 victory Tuesday night over the Los Angeles Kings.EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Metta World Peace and Thomas Robinson both went into training camp with only a small chance of making the Los Angeles Lakers roster.They seized that chance and wouldnt let it go, much to the surprise of coach Luke Walton and general manager Mitch Kupchak.The Lakers kept the two veteran forwards on their opening night roster Monday, waiving Chinese 7-footer Yi Jianlian and forward Anthony Brown.Yi requested his release after realizing he wouldnt have a prominent role immediately with the Lakers. Brown, a second-round pick last year, simply was outplayed by the 36-year-old World Peace and Robinson, who is with his sixth team in five NBA seasons.As much as I like (Brown), and as well as he was playing, Metta World Peace and T-Rob, they were bringing it every single day, Walton said after practice. They were giving us a toughness that I think we need, and giving us some vocal leadership, some experience, and I just felt like in talking with the guys upstairs, that was what was most valuable for those last couple of spots.When the Lakers return from the worst season in franchise history against Houston on Wednesday, theyll do it with World Peace on their roster for the second straight season after his NBA career appeared over. Kupchak acknowledges he didnt expect World Peace to make the team again this year, but the former Ron Artest continues to provide veteran stability and defensive ability.World Peace begins his 17th NBA season this week, and he credits his longevity to a personal reawakening in his mid-30s. After living a very reckless lifestyle, World Peace embraced a healthy existence and gained a cerebral understanding of his role with the Lakers.Its weird -- at the end of my career, I feel like the beginning, said World Peace, who turns 37 next month. Ive got a goal, a personal goal, of trying to reach 20 years, and in order to reach those goals, Ive got to take care of my body, have that body freedom.dddddddddddd I have to have a no-partying lifestyle, eating the right ways. Obviously theres such a thing called Father Time, but if you take care of your body, youll have a chance to run with these young guys. These boys are fast, theyre jumping all over, and in order to compete, youve got to treat your body the right way.World Peace was out of the league for 18 months between his release by the New York Knicks in early 2014 to his return to the Lakers, playing in China and Italy during his absence.Yi returned to the NBA last month after a four-year absence, agreeing to an incentive-laden contract with the Lakers. The 7-footer was the sixth overall pick in the 2007 draft before returning to China in 2012, becoming his domestic leagues dominant player.Yi averaged 3.0 points and 2.5 rebounds during the preseason.I think he wanted a bigger role, bigger minutes than we had available, Walton said. He was really going to have to outplay everybody to get big minutes because of the players we need to develop, and he did a great job. He was great while he was here. He proved that he belongs in this league.Robinson bulled his way onto the Lakers roster with his offensive rebounding, energy and toughness. The Kansas product didnt know he had made it until Monday morning, leaving him to endure a sleepless night before reporting to practice.It was definitely something we werent planning on before training camp started, Walton said. (Robinson) definitely earned a spot. It was just trying to find a way to get him a spot. ' ' '
