KEY POINTS:
SuperSport finds the best sporting quotes of the week:
"I don't look that good in a pair of undies. I've roomed with the guy and when he gets out of bed he just glows from the moment he opens his eyes."
Steady. Richard Kahui on rivalling Dan Carter as the All Blacks' number one hunk.

"A big team, which does all the developmental work and research, will still spend from 100 million [$252.3 million] to 130 million for its engines and gearboxes while smaller teams, who will not do the same amount of developmental work, will be able to have exactly the same products for just 6.5 million."
McLaren boss Ron Dennis tells us to spare a thought for F1's big teams and helpfully reminds us that SuperShorts' 92 Corolla needs its gearbox looked at.

"It's finally time to get the America's Cup back on the water, where victory is pursued, and not in the courtroom."
Lucien Masmejan, who is ... er ... a lawyer, said this before going into ... hmm ... a courtroom.

"Major efforts have been made to make Formula One viable but we will not stop there and will do even more. We mustn't damage the DNA of the sport, its showbiz side."
The frugal Ron Dennis again. Dennis' "major efforts" purportedly include using both sides of the diamond-encrusted A4 before throwing the paper in the bin.

"Why should he even care? I don't like putting my nose in other's business. I mean, one thing I like about [Rafael] Nadal is that he is such a great champion, he is so humble, always has kind words for everybody, he is a role model for everybody. [Roger] Federer is a great champion, I don't want to get in a fight with him but why does he care, I really don't understand. Why does he need to do that?"
Former WTA No 1, Jelena Jankovic after the Fed criticised the ranking system that saw her reach the top without ever winning a Grand Slam. Roger Federer? Pissing someone off? He's in danger of becoming interesting."

"Cricket is a leisure activity and we have to decide whether we want a number of anoraks at matches or a large crowd who are keen to be entertained."
Chairman of the ECB, Giles Clarke, doesn't like anoraks.
