Mercedes boss Toto Wolff says the team will consider all options as it looks to replace Nico Rosberg following the 2016 world champions stunning retirement from the sport.Rosberg shocked the F1 world on Friday by announcing that he is quitting the sport in a press conference just five days after he secured the title in Abu Dhabi. It leaves Mercedes, who have dominated F1 since the beginning of 2014, with an empty seat alongside Lewis Hamilton for 2017.?Wolff, who spoke at the press conference after Rosbergs announcement, confirmed the team will start the process of finding a replacement at the start of next week after the FIAs prize gala in Vienna.First on the agenda was to give Nico the opportunity to tell everybody that hes stopping, Wolff said when asked about Rosbergs replacement. We didnt want this to leak so we kept it in a very small circle. Obviously now we have to consider all options and it will be very hard...Mercedes junior Pascal Wehrlein has been tipped for a future drive at the senior team and stepped in to replace Lewis Hamilton at Pirellis final day of 2017 tyre testing just two days ago. Wehrlein, who drove for Manor this year, is yet to have a seat confirmed and was linked with the Sauber seat over the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.Wehrlein had previously been overlooked for a seat at Force India, when the Mercedes customer team decided to take fellow junior driver Esteban Ocon instead. It remains to be seen whether Ocon is a candidate for the senior team after signing that deal.If all options means Mercedes looks beyond its two junior drivers, then the team mayhave to spend big to lure one of the sports top assets away from their rivals. Fernando Alonso is tied into a third and final year of his McLaren contract, while Ferrari re-signed Kimi Raikkonen for 2017 during the season. Sebastian Vettel is contracted to Ferrari until the end of 2017, while Red Bull has tied down Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen for the next two seasons. Valtteri Bottas is signed for another year at Williams but is an interesting candidate given his links to Wolff, who is part of the Finnish drivers management team.?Brian Dawkins Womens Jersey .

Less than three months after the death of his father, who also fought for Bellator, the 24-year-old Ferguson will fight on the undercard of Bellator 160 in Anaheim, California, on Aug. 26.I was always around the fight business and everything, so I saw it and I understood what was going on, Ferguson told the AP. I just knew without a doubt that one day, this was what I wanted to do.Ferguson showed a glimpse of his fathers punching power in his amateur debut in March, but he has been training full time in MMA for just two years. He studied photography at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco before deciding to pursue his first athletic passion in the cage.I trained [in MMA] a little bit in college, but not really, Ferguson said. I was more focused on having fun and partying a little bit, getting that out of my system early. I trained a little bit, like once a week.Although he played football and basketball at his private high school in South Florida, Ferguson preferred the one-on-one rawness of wrestling and MMA.Despite his collegiate photography training and his fathers imposing shadow, Ferguson decided to pursue a fighting career seriously with the blessing of Slice, who parlayed his fame from viral backyard fighting videos into a lucrative career in MMA and boxing.dddddddddddd.The 42-year-old Slice also fought for Bellator earlier this year, but he had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and needed a heart transplant when he collapsed at his home on June 6. He died at a hospital several hours later.I wont say I adjusted well or it didnt bother me, but I was talking to him a few days before, so I understood what was going on, Ferguson said.It was more of a shock to the world, put it like that. It was still a very big tragedy, but I got through it. Im still getting through it. I wont say Im over it, but Im working on it, I guess.Ferguson has two younger brothers and three younger sisters. Slice once said the most important function of his fighting career was to provide his children with college educations.Ferguson trained in Connecticut before moving to Long Beach, California, two months ago to train in the gym of veteran MMA fighter Antonio McKee. He has been working alongside fellow Bellator fighters A.J. McKee, Bubba Jenkins and Joey Davis, who are all fighting at Honda Center in Anaheim next month.Antonio just changed the game for me, Ferguson said. He understood what I needed, and he understands the science behind it all.Bellator is likely to build up Ferguson against comparable competition. His opponent for next months debut should be selected this week.Bellator 160 in Anaheim will be headlined by former UFC champion Benson Henderson and Patricio Pitbull Freire. The show airs on Spike.
