SPIELBERG, Austria -- Mercedes boss Toto Wolff believes the FIA should consider modifying the kerbs at the Red Bull Ring ahead of Sundays Austrian Grand Prix after three drivers suffered suspension failures on Saturday.Mercedes Nico Rosberg was the first to experience a failure when his cars left-rear suspension buckled as he rode the kerb at Turn 2 in final practice. The Force India of Sergio Perez then suffered a failure at Turn 1 in qualifying before Danill Kvyat had a big accident in his Toro Rosso when his suspension collapsed at Turn 8.The whole of the Red Bull Ring has been resurfaced ahead of this years race, with new kerbs added around the track. However, the failures have not been traced to the harsh yellow kerbs that caused Max Verstappens front suspension failure, but instead the more traditional looking red kerbs around the track.It is a concern, Wolff said after Mercedes analysed the Rosberg incident. The strange thing is at the beginning it seemed that we had spikes of loads, but once we analysed it there was not much load on the suspension.So it is some kind of strange frequency, oscillation on the tyre which makes the suspension break, we dont know what it is. It looks like its the red kerbs that are new, which triggers that, so no answers here.Mercedes reacted by strengthening the suspension on both cars by wrapping the wishbones in additional layers of carbon fibre. Wolff said he has also raised his concerns about the kerbs with FIA race director Charlie Whiting.Yes there is some discussion happening. We discussed it during the session actually that we need to react quickly and trigger some reaction, but that is not an easy one.I dont know what the FIA is going to decide, whether they are going to take those sausage kerbs away or whether they are going to modify some of the red kerbs, scratch them down, or fill them with concrete. I dont know but weve seen a couple of failures on various cars on various suspension designs and its still failing, I think there needs to be a reaction.Robserg said he found the situation worrying.Its a vibration. A very unusual, never-seen-before vibration which comes only on that shallow kerb. So thats a worry because its not something that weve planned for building the car. So not straightforward but they reinforced my car now in those fragile areas before qualifying. Rob Gronkowski Jersey .

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Jay Cutler described the Bears injury epidemic as crazy.It got worse Sunday.Chicago lost 22-16 to the New York Giants, falling to 2-8 in what has become a war of attrition as player after player heads to the sideline. The biggest concern centered on rookie linebacker Leonard Floyd, removed on a stretcher in the fourth quarter with a neck injury.Floyd, the Bears first round draft pick from Georgia, gave a thumbs-up to teammates surrounding him as he left the field.He was taken to a hospital for evaluation and then released. The Bears said he returned to Chicago on Sunday night.Some of his movement looked good or encouraging, but hes going through the necessary tests, Bears coach John Fox said after the loss. It appeared it was on a tackle. Im sure they are evaluating him for a concussion as well. Anytime they bring the cart out and the board out, they have some neck concerns. He seemed to have pretty good movement skills at that point.It was an emotional blow for his teammates on the field.It hit us mentally and physically because he is one of our young bucks, linebacker Pernell McPhee said. Thats one of our playmakers, thats one of the guys we depend on. He is a great guy, so hopefully, its nothing serious. All prayers go out to him and I hope he can be back soon.Floyd was only one name on the lengthy list of Bears injured in the latest loss.Cutler lost one of his key weapons when tight end Zack Miller suffered a possibly broken right foot, his second major injury of the season. Defensive back CreVon LeBlanc is in the concussion protocol and left guard Josh Sitton injured his right ankle.Coming into the game, the Bears were missing right tackle Bobbie Massie (concussion), nose tackle Eddie Goldman (ankle) and defensive end Mitch Unnrein (back).dddddddddddd Chicago receiver Alshon Jeffery served the first game of a four-game suspension for violating the NFLs policy on performance-enhancing substances. Bears also were missing guard Kyle Long, who was placed on injured reserve last week with ankle and shoulder injuries.Very disappointing, Fox said of the defeat. We did have some injuries. We had some guys step in and did OK. Just not quite well enoughInjuries are a part of the game and every team adopts the next-man-up philosophy. Sometimes the sheer volume of sidelined players becomes overwhelming.Its up there, Fox said when asked to rank this level of attrition in his coaching experience. Ive doing this for a bit, so its hard to remember 27 years ago but its up in the top five, for sure.The injury run leaves Cutler directing a patchwork offense constantly in flux as the injuries pile up.Its hard, the quarterback said. Injuries are part of the game and its a situation where we have to replace them with somebody but its starting to add up.Veteran cornerback Tracy Porter said all the injuries have made it hard for the team to develop and keep its chemistry.Injuries can devastate a team, but we are a team that believes in a next man up mentality, Porter said. We want the guys who were playing to come back as soon as possible, but the health of those guys is much more important than this game. We want those guys to come back, but like Ive said, we have belief in the guys that come in. If you lose more guys, youre thinning out and on the depth chart, you dont have guys to spare.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL . ' ' '
