Nico Rosberg is among a number of F1 drivers who hope Pirellis wet-weather testing this year produces a better extreme tyre for 2017.Sundays Brazilian Grand Prix was red flagged twice and featured five safety car periods as race control struggled to gauge whether the wet conditions were suitable for racing. Several drivers complained of aquaplaning, with Marcus Ericsson, Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen all spinning into the barriers during the race.The conditions were some of the worse F1 has seen this season, but a number of drivers pointed to the extreme-wet tyres tendency to aquaplane.They are very easy to aquaplane with, its not like its raining a lot, Raikkonen said following his incident. Weve said that many times, but it obviously also depends on the circuit and many things.If I compare to ten/twelve year ago those tyres could cope with this kind of rain with no issues, no aquaplaning. The aquaplaning is the biggest issue, if we have a bit of standing water we get zero grip. Thats it.Romain Grosjean, who spun on his way to the grid, added: The extreme tyre is a very poor tyre and there is no grip. You have to take a huge amount of risk to go to the intermediates because they are just faster. But, yes you cannot control the car in a straight line.Part of the problem has been a lack of wet weather tyre testing since Pirelli returned to the sport as the sole tyre supplier in 2011, but this year the Italian tyre company has completed six days of dedicated wet-weather testing to develop its 2017 tyre. Rosberg, who managed to catch a big slide when he aquaplaned on the uphill run to the pit straight in Brazil, hopes the dedicated wet-weather tests will produce better tyres.Its difficult because its completely unpredictable when you go through a little bit more water -- you dont know whats going to happen, he said. That makes it really challenging, but they [Pirelli] know that and they are working on it at the moment.Thats why they have been doing wet tests, to make some progress for next year. It would be good for the racing also, because then you dont need to red flag it and you can let the race go on. It will be a good thing.Red Bull boss Christian Horner also hopes progress can be made ahead of 2017, when Pirelli faces an even tougher challenge with a wider footprint that will be more susceptible to aquaplaning.You could see that the drivers were having big issues with aquaplaning on the extreme and the inter. Kimi crashed in front of us on the extreme. [Marcus] Ericsson was on the inter. So we conducted some wet testing for Pirelli at the beginning of the year to try and help, and it seems like there is still room for improvement on the extreme in extreme conditions.However, Lewis Hamilton, who won the race in Brazil without a single mistake, said the conditions were not as bad as they looked.This is Formula One and the rain conditions are the trickiest conditions. If everyone just went round and didnt make mistakes it would be too easy and then everyone could do it. We are going at some serious speeds and there is a lot of water to disperse by the tyres and the tyre just struggles; the faster we go, the harder it is for the tyres. This wasnt a particularly difficult race in terms of being wet, theres been much much worse races in terms of aquaplaning.

The season isnt even a month old and already it seems we may have seen the full range of fantasy value for Klay Thompson and Bradley Beal. Both of the shooting guards have overcome ice cold starts to put up huge numbers over the past week, moving up this weeks rankings.At his worst just a few weeks ago, Thompson looked like an afterthought in the Golden State Warriors offense, camping out in the corner while Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry and Draymond Green handled the ball the majority of the time. When the ball finally came to him, his jumper was as off as weve ever seen it in the pros.That all changed on Nov. 7, when Thompson shot 11-for-20 from the field and finished with 24 points in a win over the New Orleans Pelicans. Since that game, he has made at least three 3-pointers in seven straight games and scored at least 20 points in five of those. More importantly, that golden jumper is back, and Thompson has shot more than 50 percent from the field in all but one game since beating the Pelicans.Thompson jumps from No. 36 to 23 in the rankings.Then theres Beal, the Washington Wizards guard, who I cut in my home league last week while Beal was out of the lineup nursing another injury. Time will tell if the oft-injured 2-guard can stay on the court, but you have to give him credit for the way he has played since returning. Beal eased his way back with 18 points in 29 minutes against the New York Knicks on Thursday before going for 34 points against the Miami Heat and setting a career-high on Monday with 42 points against the Phoenix Suns. Also encouraging is the fact that he was able to log 40 minutes in each game. On top of that, Beal connected on 9-21 3s in those last two games, and anytime Beal shoots like that and shows such aggressiveness on the offensive end he becomes a much more valuable fantasy player.Listed all the way down at No. 89 while out of the lineup last week, Beal makes the jump up to 65, between Jabari Parker and Harrison Barnes.Another notable to rise in this weeks standings is C.J. McCollum (20), who was too low at 29 last week and continues to scorch the nets from long range. Weve made the proper adjustment. McCollum is shooting 48.3 percent from the field and 45.9 percent from 3-point land this season, which makes him all the more valuable at a position like shooting guard in which efficiency is often hard to find.ddddddddddddAl Horford returned from an extended absence following a concussion he suffered in practice and averaged 19 points, 8.5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1.5 steals and 3 blocks in his first two games. He averaged 35 minutes in those games, and both came against defensive-minded coaches (Tom Thibodeau and Stan Van Gundy), which is also encouraging. Horford moves up 10 spots from No. 43 to 33.Jrue Holiday also looked strong in his first few games of the season, warranting a climb from No. 76 to 56. The Pelicans veteran point guard averaged 21.5 points and 8 assists in only 26.5 minutes per game against Portland and Charlotte. Its safe to say hes already back to his normal value after missing all of training camp and the first three weeks of the season to tend to his wife following her brain surgery.On the other side, Denver big men Nikola Jokic (from No. 79 to 117) and Jusuf Nurkic (from No. 55 to 94) represent two of the biggest fallers this week. Both young Nuggets have loads of talent, but as long as they are playing only 22 minutes a night, neither is going to make a consistent fantasy impact. Just make sure you realize that if you drop or trade them now, youre selling low.Nerlens Noel (141) is still a few weeks away from returning to the court and even when he does, hell have to battle for minutes with Dario Saric, Ersan Ilyasova and eventually Ben Simmons. He isnt the same fantasy player on this seasons team as he was in previous years, and might strictly be a streamer.J.J. Barea falls out of the Top 150 following the news that hell be sidelined up to six weeks due to a calf injury. If you have an IR spot, hes worth stashing, but otherwise hes not worth waiting around for if it means sacrificing a roster spot for a month and a half.Lastly, theres Chandler Parsons, who hasnt played well in the six games he has appeared in this season (21 MPG, 7.7 PPG, 3 RPG, 39.1 FG%) and now will miss the next two weeks after being diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left knee. He falls all the way to No. 134 this week.Here is the full rundown of the rest of the updated Top 150: ' ' '
