AUSTIN, Texas -- Sebastian Vettel admitted he pushed too hard on his qualifying lap for the U.S. Grand Prix, but said it is unfair to suggest that teammate Kimi Raikkonen is only ahead because of that.Vettel will line up sixth behind Raikkonen on Sundays grid at the Circuit of the Americas after clocking a time over 0.2s off the Finn. But when it was put to Vettel that he has struggled against Raikkonen in recent races because of his own mistakes, the four-time world champion talked up the quality of his teammate.No, I think its not fair to look at it that way, he said. Kimi did a very good job today and both Q3 laps I wasnt happy and probably pushed a bit too hard. We know that backfires on these tyres, but that isnt an excuse and I should have done a better job.Its part of the reason why Im not that happy with today, but as I said before, the gap to the cars in front is really what we dont like. I think we had a good run in the last couple of races and coming here and not being as competitive as we thought is not good news. But well take it and tomorrow is the race so we will see whats possible, even though it will be a big fight, but thats what we are here for.Ferrari had hoped to be competitive in Austin because the track has some similarities to Suzuka where Vettel and teammate Kimi Raikkonen qualified on the second row. The German said there was no obvious reason for the dip in form in Austin.I cant give you an answer because we dont exactly know. Yesterday we saw already that we werent yet on the pace. I think we improved today and the feeling wasnt that bad, so throughout qualifying I think we were both reasonably happy with the balance, but we werent quick enough.Obviously there is a lot of work going in trying to understand what happened, but for now we have to take it that way. As I said, we have to fight as much as we can at tomorrows race.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Clayton Richard hopes to build upon some sensational statistics since joining the San Diego Padres when he faces the playoff-contending San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night.The 33-year-old, twice a 14-game winner earlier in his career with the Padres, has gone 2-2 with a 1.15 ERA in seven appearances, including five starts, since rejoining the club in August after a two-year stint with the Chicago Cubs.The left-hander has been better than ever in recent efforts, allowing just one run over his last three starts. Two of those outings were on the road against teams competing with the Giants for playoff positions -- the Miami Marlins and Los Angeles Dodgers.The Giants (77-66) currently trail the Los Angeles Dodgers (81-62) by four games in the National League West. San Francisco leads the NL wild-card race.Even Richards two losses as a Padre were impressive. He allowed a total of two earned runs in losses to the New York Mets and Arizona Diamondbacks when he was given a grand total of two runs of offensive support.Richard has struck out 26 in his 31 1/3 innings for the Padres.The matchup of the night could be Richard against one of baseballs hottest hitters, Giants right fielder Hunter Pence.Pence will take a 13-for-20 (.650) streak into the game, having gone 2-for-4 in Mondays 4-0 loss to Paul Clemens and the Padres.Pence is hitting .481 (13-for-27) against the Padres this season, but hes gone just 1-for-9 with three strikeouts in his career against Richard.Weve had guys hot and cold since the break. We have not been consistent, Giants manager Bruce Bochy lamented after Mondays shutout, which came on the heels of a three-game winning streak during which San Francisco scored 23 runs.dddddddddddd. It looked like we came out of it in Arizona. It sure looks bad to get shut out when you get back home the first day.The Giants will counter on the mound with Albert Suarez, who has pitched well enough as an injury-replacement starter this season to retain a rotation spot even after veterans Matt Cain and Jake Peavy have returned to the active roster.Suarez has gone 3-3 with a 4.37 ERA in 19 games, splitting time between the starting rotation (nine) and the bullpen (10).The rookie has faced the Padres just once this season, that having been in relief on July 16, when he kept San Diego scoreless for 1 2/3 innings despite allowing two hits and three walks.Suarez will be facing a Padres team that rode catcher Hector Sanchezs three-hit night to the series-opening win Monday.Sanchez, who spent his first five seasons with the Giants, broke open the win with a two-run homer off Jeff Samardzija in the sixth inning.It was his third homer of the season, and just his third in 119 career games at AT&T Park.He has to feel good about hitting a homer here, Padres manager Andy Green said of Sanchez after the game. Im sure hes got some great memories here.The Padres win was their fourth straight over the Giants after they had opened the season with nine consecutive losses against their California rival.San Diego had lost 11 in a row in San Francisco before Monday.
