Lewis Hamilton says he will come back stronger in 2017 after learning some valuable lessons this season.Hamilton missed out on title by five points to Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg this year, despite taking more wins and more pole positions over the course of the 21 races.Hamilton dropped points with MGU-H problems in qualifying at the Chinese and Russian Grands Prix as well as losing out on victory in Malaysia with an engine failure. However, he also lost points due to a series of poor starts -- an issue that was corrected later in the year after time spent with his engineers at the teams factory -- and a finish off the podium in Baku following a mistake in qualifying and an incorrect engine setting during the race.I learned a lot about myself this year, he said. I understood and found where there are weaknesses, which I can now improve for next year -- some I already did party way through the season.I read somewhere that Baku was a bad race through performance, but qualifying was the bad performance and in the race I was stuck with a setting that the team had set and I had no information of what it was. But otherwise there are definitely races where hindsight would have been a great thing -- I could have done this or I could have done that and maybe I could have got a better start.Maybe if Id done this I would have won, but thats not something that I try to do in a season, because in the heat of the moment you do the best you can. I won the last four races and I think I performed pretty well throughout the year to have the amount of wins I had.I won 10 races and had 12 pole positions, which, considering I didnt compete in three of the qualifying sessions, Im very very happy with. The goal next year is to try and up that, which is always going to be incredibly tough.In attempting to overcome some of the problems he faced, Hamilton said he had to dig deeper than ever before this season.I think I drive well every year, but I think I probably drove with more heart than I ever have done before. I was faced with a lot more challenges along the way - if you start first, fall back to eighth and have to fight back through.I had to dig deep, probably deeper than other years when I have started first and disappeared. I would say it has taken a lot more heart and a lot more courage to face the challenges and overcome them. Maury Wills Jersey .

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Alabamas defense still seems to have a wall erected at the goal line, and Jalen Hurts remains unflappable enough to shrug off mistakes.The combination has been good enough every time so far.Hurts rebounded from two early interceptions to pass for 286 yards and the top-ranked Crimson Tides defense did the rest in a 30-12 victory Saturday over No. 16 Auburn to finish an undefeated regular season.We have bigger goals in mind, tight end O.J. Howard said.The Tide (12-0, 8-0 Southeastern Conference, No. 1 CFP) led just 13-9 at halftime, dominating the stat sheet but only taking over the scoreboard in the second half. The defense pushed its string of quarters without allowing a touchdown to 14-plus and shut down the leagues top running game.Auburn (8-4, 5-3, No. 15) failed to muster much offense for the second straight SEC game. This time the Tigers were playing without injured quarterback Sean White and unable to reach the end zone despite starting several drives in Alabama territory.We had some really, really challenging field position situations in this game, and our players responded really well to it, Alabama coach Nick Saban said.Hurts displayed the same poise in overcoming two first-half interceptions that has helped him lead the Tide into the SEC championship game. He completed 27-of-36 mostly short and mid-range passes and threw for two touchdowns. Alabama has won three straight Iron Bowls for the first time since 1990-92.At halftime, I guess everybody thought I was going to throw a fit, but I told them, `Look guys, all weve got to do is go out there and play with some poise and confidence, Saban said.Hurts also ran for 37 yards and a touchdown, leading two straight touchdown drives in the third quarter to all but put the game away after a mistake-filled first half.He ran for a 4-yard score on a drive sparked by four Bo Scarbrough runs. On a fourth-and-4 play, he hit ArDarius Stewart, who spun away from a defender and made another move downfield en route to a 38-yard touchdown and a 27-9 lead.Stewart gained 1227 yards on 10 catches and completed a 12-yard pass.dddddddddddd Scarbrough ran for 90 yards, including 83 after the half.Auburns Jeremy Johnson, who started the second straight game in Whites place, completed 4 of 13 passes for 34 yards. John Franklin III connected on two downfield passes in the second half that totaled 85 yards. The Tide dominated in total yards, 501-182.Daniel Carlson connected on four field goals for Auburn.Offensively, we just didnt get first downs, we just didnt get it done, Tigers coach Gus Malzahn said. Two of 12 on third downs, I really think that caused the problem. Third downs, didnt hit explosive plays, defense was on the field too long was really the story of the day.Obviously weve got players in there that are hurting, coaches that are hurting, this is a tough one.THE TAKEAWAYAuburn didnt get a first down until nearly 25 minutes into the game and continues to have no passing game without a healthy White. Leading rusher Kamryn Pettway ran 12 times for just 17 yards after missing the past two games with a leg injury. The Tigers managed 66 rushing yards after coming in averaging a league best 298.Alabama still has to get more offense in the downfield passing game but remains dominant on defense.POLL IMPLICATIONSAlabama seems unlikely to drop from No. 1 in AP poll or playoff rankings, but No. 2 Ohio State could at least close ground after a double-overtime win over No. 3 Michigan. Auburn could fall from the top 20 after a second straight punchless offensive performance in SEC games.TARGETINGDefensive back Tony Brown was ejected for targeting for a block thrown on a punt return. Hell be available against Florida.FAREWELLSAlabamas senior class finished its final home game with a 49-5 record so far.UP NEXTAuburn awaits its bowl destination.Alabama faces No. 13 Florida in the SEC championship game for the second straight year.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
