Hamilton runs Formula One win total to 93

Runaway championship leader Lewis Hamilton overcame a sluggish start to win the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix on Sunday in Imola, Italy, for a record-extending 93rd Formula One victory.

Hamilton beat Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas by 5.7 seconds and rushed over to celebrate with his engineers and mechanics after the team clinched a record-extending seventh straight constructors' title.

"Seven times champs, something to tell my grandchildren," said Hamilton, who also clinched an extra point for the fastest lap. "It is very overwhelming right now."

Hamilton broke Michael Schumacher's record for wins when he won for the 92nd time last weekend. He is now closing rapidly on matching Schumacher's record seven F1 titles and leads Bottas by 85 points with four races and a maximum of 104 points left. Hamilton can clinch the title at the Turkish GP on Nov. 15.

Houston outfielder George Springer, New York Yankees second baseman DJ LeMahieu and Philadelphia catcher J.T. Realmuto were among just six free agents who received $18.9 million qualifying offers on Sunday from their former teams.

Three righthanded pitchers also received the offers: Cincinnati's Trevor Bauer, the New York Mets' Marcus Stroman and San Francisco's Kevin Gausman.

Those players have until 4 p.m. Nov. 11 to accept the offers or press ahead as free agents in the negotiating period that began Sunday.

College basketball: Billy Tubbs, the colorful coach with the high-octane system known as Billy Ball who brought Oklahoma basketball to prominence in the 1980s, died Sunday in Norman, Okla. He was 85. He had dealt with leukemia since 2015. Tubbs had a 333-132 record in 14 seasons at Oklahoma and was four time Big Eight Coach of the Year. In three seasons, the Sooners averaged more than 100 points per game.
