SEPANG, Malaysia -- Force India remains very confident of extending the contract of Sergio Perez despite the Mexican drivers threat that he will be forced to consider changing teams if a deal is not reached this month.The deal was being held up by negotiations over the commercial terms of the sponsorship between team, driver and the Mexican telecommunications companies Telmex, Telcel and Claro.The driver contract has been completed for some time, Force India deputy team principal Bob Fernley said Friday at the Malaysian Grand Prix. We are literally dotting the is and crossing the ts on the commercial side and if it takes a week, that is fine, if it takes a couple of weeks, so be it -- it will happen.We are very confident `Checo will be with us next year, and we have never deviated from that.Perez had expected the deal to be finalized before the current Asian swing of the season in Singapore-Malaysia-Japan, and said he was losing patience with negotiations.At the moment Im just concentrating on one team, said Perez, who is eighth in the drivers standings with two podium finishes this season. There are some other options on the table, quite interesting options.I hope that it works out with one team, and if it doesnt, then by next week obviously we will have to look at something else.Perez has been linked with moves to Renault -- which is in the market for an experienced driver and is yet to finalize either race seat for next season -- and Haas, which has close links with Ferrari, which would be the Mexicans dream move.I want to keep my career in F1 going. I cannot wait much longer, Perez said. I expect everything should be done by next week.Thankfully there is a lot of interest out there, makes you feel in a good position. If things dont work out as you want, you have to look at somewhere else. PJ Tucker Rockets Jersey .

ELMONT, N.Y. -- For most of the year, trainer Chad Brown has been too busy moving forward to take time to look back. But as interest increased in Lady Elis remarkable return to Grade 1 form after her battle with life-threatening laminitis, Brown has begun thinking about where his filly is and where shes been.At this time last year, Lady Eli was on a farm in Kentucky getting some paddock time while on the upswing from laminitis. The illness arose after she stepped on a nail while walking back to her barn following a victory in the Grade 1 Belmont Oaks on July 4, 2015.On Saturday, she will be one of the favorites to win the Breeders Cup Filly and Mare Turf against some of the best turf runners in the world.Its been hard to stop and really comprehend how remarkable it is that shes come back from laminitis to this level -- which is extremely rare -- because we just keep moving forward with her, Brown said Sunday at Belmont Park. I have thought a lot about it this week. It was just a big deal to graduate her to standing in ice, and the first time we walked her down the shed row, that was amazing.Brown said he recently found a video of Lady Eli he took for her owners on the first day she went to the track at Palm Meadows last winter.I started looking through them this week as they asked me for information, Brown said, referring to NBC Sports, which is scheduled to air a feature on Lady Eli during its Breeders Cup broadcast. I finally did sit down and say, Wow, I just cant believe where shes at now and where she was. Shes just a remarkable horse.Lady Eli, who has won seven of eight career starts, reminded Brown just how good she is with a stellar five-furlong workout Sunday. Though the time of 1:03.17 wont wow anybody, the manner in which it was done was impressive. Irad Ortiz Jr., her regular jockey who has worked her the past several weeks, said Sundays move reminded him of Lady Eli pre-laminitis.For me, since shes come back, today is the day she looked the closest to what she was before, Ortiz said. Im very happy that she worked like thhat.ddddddddddddOrtiz said that in some of her previous workouts, when Lady Eli would approach the wire, she would be getting in, turning her head. Today, she was strong, and she just kept going after the wire and did everything right.Added Brown: As good as Ive seen her breeze maybe ever. She was very, very strong this morning and throughout her work and came back as though she hadnt even worked. Shes an amazing horse. That work was outstanding.Lady Eli was scheduled to have a walk day Monday and then ship to Southern California on Tuesday for the Breeders Cup. It was two years ago that Lady Eli first flashed her brilliance on the big stage, winning the Juvenile Fillies Turf at Santa Anita.It will be the biggest race of her career, Brown said. Im excited for our team, the owners, and Im really excited for her that shes going to have her moment and go back to Santa Anita because she earned it.Lady Eli may also have earned another year in training. Though she is cataloged for the Keeneland November breeding stock sale, co-owner Sol Kumin said Monday that if healthy, theres a good chance Lady Eli will be withdrawn and would race next year. Kumin said he, co-owner Jay Hanley and Brown will discuss it.If shes healthy, my guess is shell run again next year, Kumin said.Lady Eli may also have earned another year in training.
