SILVERSTONE, England -- Williams driver Pastor Maldonado was fined and accused of being "very dangerous" for Formula One after ending a rivals race for a second successive grand prix on Sunday. The Venezuelan was hit with a C10,000 ($12,300) fine and reprimanded by stewards at the British Grand Prix after a collision with Sergio Perez shunted the Sauber driver off the track and out of the race at Silverstone. Two weeks ago, Maldonado received a 20-second penalty at the European Grand Prix, knocking him out of the points, after crashing into Lewis Hamilton and sending the McLaren into a wall. The controversies have taken the gloss off Maldonados first-ever win, at the Spanish Grand Prix in May, with Perez demanding tougher action against him. "He is a very stupid driver. He ran Hamilton out of the race in Valencia," Perez said. "I dont know why the stewards dont take more action against him. He deserves a big penalty. "We are risking our lives out there and if they (the stewards) dont do something he will hurt someone. For all the drivers he is very dangerous driver on the circuit." In a previous incident with Perez, Maldonado cut in front of the Mexican during qualifying for the Monaco GP in May and incurred a 10-place grid penalty. On Sunday, Perez was forced to retire after being sent spinning off on lap 12. "He didnt give me any room," Perez said. "He has no respect for other drivers. Its the way he is driving." Maldonado defended his driving style, only describing the collision as a "very disappointing moment." "I was on the inside of the corner, so it was mine, Sergio was outside trying to take the position from me," Maldonado told the BBC. "I tried to defend and lost the rear of the car and we bumped tires. It was disappointing. "It was an unlucky race for me and that is it. Sergio can say what he wants. We are racing, we are trying to do our best. I was trying to defend, he was trying to gain and this is racing." Maldonado finished 17th. Coach Outlet . Lionel Messi was the recipient of two of Iniestas assists to score in the 47th and 52nd minutes. Iniesta himself netted five minutes later with a blast off the crossbar before setting up Cesc Fabregas in the 63rd at Ciutat de Valencia stadium. Coach Factory Outlet . 14-20. Boozer helped the Bulls to a three-win week and averaged 23.0 points per contest and a league-leading 14.8 rebounds. Boozer totaled a weekly-high 36 points on 16-of-24 shooting from the field in the Bulls 107-105 win over the Raptors on Jan.

Dustin Byfuglien opened the scoring for the Jets on the power play, taking a Tobias Enstrom pass and beating Craig Anderson with a blast from the line. PHILADELPHIA -- Ty Wigginton and Laynce Nix gave Philadelphias struggling offence a boost. Wigginton drove in four runs and Nix had a tiebreaking double to support Cole Hammels and help the Phillies avoid a three-game sweep with an 8-2 win over the New York Mets on Sunday. "It shows our guys we can score runs and we can knock them in," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. Scoring runs has been a big problem for the five-time reigning NL East champions who are playing without injured All-Stars Chase Utley (knee) and Ryan Howard (Achilles). Philadelphia entered Sunday having lost five of its first eight while scoring 20 runs, including two runs combined in a pair of losses to the Mets in this series. But Wigginton and Nix, two reserves Philadelphia added this season to bolster its bench, helped the Phillies set a season high for runs while matching their 2012 best with 14 hits. "Theyre new on our team and it definitely takes them a while to get the feeling they belong," Manuel said. "I know how much they want to impress you. It takes them awhile to get used to our team and feeling good about themselves." Said Wigginton: "Anytime you take the field and contribute, it definitely feels good." The Phillies tied it at 2 in the seventh on Wiggintons sacrifice fly to right that scored Jimmy Rollins. Rollins couldve made the second out of the inning, but right fielder Lucas Duda misjudged his lazy flyball to short right field. The ball dropped in for a single. "Lucas broke back on the ball," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "He probably had a shot." Rollins moved to second on Hunter Pences single to left, then both advanced on a wild pitch by reliever Ramon Ramirez (1-1). Pence, incidentally, likely would have been the third out: His grounder into left field got through the hole between short and third because shortstop Ruben Tejada was cheating up the middle for a potential steal by Rollins. Nix, who had been hitless in seven at-bats this season, doubled home Pence to put the Phillies up 3-2. Nixs hit nearly was caught by left fielder Scott Hairston, who charged into the corner and jumped for the liner but had it glance off his glove annd ricochet into foul territory.dddddddddddd "I think it was a good time to get my first hit," Nix said. "I was happy to get my feet wet and get something done." The Phillies, helped by Tejadas throwing error, tacked on five unearned runs run in the eighth, an inning highlighted by Wiggintons bases-clearing double. "That has been our problem," Manuel said. "We do get a couple of hits and we cant get a big one." Hamels (1-1) fell into an early hole, giving up Ike Davis first homer of the year, a two-out, two-run drive in the first. "You put it behind you and start back over," said Hamels, who struck out 10 and allowed two runs on six hits. "You need to get the next guy out and keep plugging away." The Phillies avoided a three-game sweep at home against the Mets for the first time since June 13-15, 2006. The Phillies blew the game open with five unearned runs in the eighth off Manny Acosta and Miguel Batista. David Wright was 2 for 4, dropping his average to .572 (12 for 21). Davis and Duda each had two hits for the Mets, who got six solid innings from starter Mike Pelfrey. The right-hander allowed one run on eight hits while striking out two and walking two. "He was outstanding," Collins said of Pelfrey, who was lifted after 99 pitches. "It was another good start for him. He had a good curveball and got a lot of groundballs." The Phillies got a run back in the bottom half when Rollins singled home Juan Pierre, who went 3 for 4 with three singles. NOTES: Mets OF Jason Bay, after originally being in the starting lineup, was a late scratch. He injured his right ring finger sliding into a base Saturday night. . Each member of the Phillies and Mets honoured the 65th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the colour barrier in baseball by wearing No. 42 during the game. During a pregame ceremony, members of the Tuskegee Airmen and two players from the Philadelphia Stars, Harold Gould and Mahlon Duckett, of the Negro League were recognized. . The crowd of 45,829 was the sixth-largest in Citizens Bank Park history and the 210th regular-season sellout. . It was the 19th career double-digit strikeout game for Hamels. ' ' '
