Indy 500 winner Alexander Rossi says another season of IndyCar is his number one choice for 2017, rather than a return to Formula One.Rossi enjoyed a remarkable debut in Americas premier open-wheel series, winning the Indy 500 at the first attempt and claiming Rookie of the Year for the season. He only switched to IndyCar in February after losing out on a full-time Manor drive to Rio Haryanto ahead of 2016.Last year he became the first American driver to compete in F1 since 2007, driving in five of the last seven races for Manor. Despite ongoing ambitions to stay in the series, Rossi thinks another year with IndyCar is the most logical outcome.My options are open for both, 100 percent, Rossi told ESPN. I do feel like I still have a lot of unfinished business in Formula One and a lot of my passion still lies there. But at the same time Ive come to really enjoy and have a lot of appreciation for the IndyCar series, theres a lot of things I really like about it.Ill say most of my focus right now is on IndyCar, and staying, and were doing everything we can to put a deal together soon. But with that being said my eye is always on Formula One and its in a weird state right now, so I dont expect anything to come from it [this year] ... But Im always available for opportunities if they present themselves.When asked if he was referring to current team Andretti Autosport when he said putting a deal together, he replied: Thats our number one choice, for sure, but you cant ever put your eggs into one basket. So were talking to them the most but at the same time were talking to a couple of other teams [in IndyCar] as well in case things go sideways, then we have a back-up option.The American driver, who is still Manors reserve driver, said there are tentative talks ongoing with at least one F1 outfit, but joked that they are not taking up much of his attention in terms of next season.Honestly, like, 95...97 percent of the teams were talking to are IndyCar! Thats where were putting most of our focus, for sure.The legendary Penske team is one of the IndyCar outfits Rossi is being linked to. Previously Rossi was seen as a candidate for American F1 debutants Haas, but just this week team boss Guenther Steiner explained the teams apprehension at taking a risk on a driver with limited experience and risk breaking somebodies career if they did not perform -- citing Rossi himself as an example.?

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Florida coach Jim McElwain watched his Gators overcome injuries, an extra road game and repeated adversity in the shadow of their own goal line. That should be valuable experience for a feisty football team thatll face long odds again when it meets top-ranked Alabama in the Southeastern Conference championship game in a couple weeks.Floridas defense stuffed LSUs Derrius Guice on a do-or-die run from the 1-yard line in the final seconds, and the No. 21 Gators held on for a tension-filled 16-10 victory that clinched the Southeastern Conference East Division on Saturday.I cant tell you how proud I am of our players and our staff, and Im happy for our Gator fans who dont think were very good, but all we do is end up back in Atlanta, said McElwain, whose Gators (8-2, 6-2 SEC, No. 23 CFP) also won the SEC East last year.The final play capped a defensive struggle in which No. 16 LSU converted a fourth-and-10 play on its final drive, only to get stopped on back-to-back runs from the 1 to end the game. Fullback J.D. Moore came up short on third down.Florida quarterback Austin Appleby completed only seven passes on 17 attempts, but one of his connections went for a pivotal 98-yard touchdown to Tyrie Cleveland. Eddy Piniero scored the rest of Floridas points on field goals of 36, 24 and 34 yards.LSU (6-4, 4-3 SEC, No. 16 CFP) controlled most of the game and held statistical advantages, outgaining Florida 423 yards to 270 and holding possession for 34:02. LSU also led 7-0 after Guices early 1-yard touchdown.But on three occasions, the Tigers failed to score after driving inside Floridas 10 -- the first time because of Guices fumble in the first half and the second time because of a botched field goal in the third quarter. LSUs lone field goal came three failed plays after the Tigers had a first-and-goal from the 4.We just shot ourselves in the foot. We had a lot of opportunities, said LSU interim coach Ed Orgeron , whose prospects of keeping the job long term werent helped by the result.Had the Tigers, who came in as two-touchdown favorites, converted a few more of those opportunities, theyd still be in good shape to get the SECs Sugar Bowl bid.Not anymore.THE TAKEAWAYFlorida: Missing a handful of starters, the Gators played with a lot of heart and relied heavily on their elite defense to pull off the upset.LSU: The Tigers two turnovers and botched field goal turned what could have been a fairly comfortable victory into a losing struggle.VINDICATIONMcElwain sounded eageer to revisit questions about whether his program tried to dodge the Tigers when the original game in Florida was postponed by Hurricane Matthew in early October.dddddddddddd Florida balked at initial offers to move the game to LSU as the storm approached, or to play at home one or two days after the originally scheduled time. That left the SEC little choice but to postpone the game until both teams could buy out non-league opponents. But LSU refused to give up a home game, forcing Florida to travel if it wanted a shot to play for a conference title.The way I look at it, they got what they deserved -- and it should have been worse, McElwain said.Florida cornerback Jalen Tabor mocked Floridas critics by making light of the matter.We didnt have no courage, he said. I guess out of fear we fought back.TOUGH DAYLSU starting defensive back Donte Jackson was in coverage on Applebys long scoring pass down the right sideline to Cleveland, who then escaped Jacksons grasp after the catch near midfield. After LSU went down 13-10 in the fourth quarter, Jackson fumbled a kickoff return by running into his own teammate, setting up Floridas final field goal.INJURIESLSU lost a key defender in the first half when middle linebacker Kendell Beckwith needed help off the field. He spent the rest of the game on the sideline with his left knee heavily wrapped. LSU star running back Leonard Fournette, who played despite being banged up last week, came out of the game for good after being stopped short on a third-and-goal play in the second half.EMOTIONAL FLARE-UPThe two teams scuffled near the middle of the field about an hour before kickoff. Several people viewing warmups captured video they posted on social media. It was mostly yelling and shoving as coaches and police working security converged quickly to break it up. Some players also acted as peacemakers. One video captured Fournette pushing Florida defensive backs coach Torrian Gray away from a cluster of LSU players and coaches.POLL IMPLICATIONSFlorida is likely to climb back into the Top 20. LSU might not fall out of the poll , but will be punished for its squandered opportunities.UP NEXTFlorida: The Gators renew their non-conference rivalry with Florida State in Tallahassee.LSU: The Tigers visit Texas A&M on Thanksgiving night.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 .
