Were moving across the pond from yesterdays North America preview to the European Rocket League Championship Series playoffs. With the stage set for the final in Amsterdam, the European teams will all be looking to advance out of the double elimination bracket and compete for the lions share of $250,000. Heres how Week 1 of the playoffs stacks up:Mockit Aces (3) vs. Reunited (6)If the Aces were playing anyone other than Reunited, I would say this will be a quick 3-0 (it really would be). Reunited, more than any other team, will not roll over and die. Mockit are the heavy favorites in this match and should probably advance comfortably. If they keep up the pressure, theyll head to Amsterdam as favorites alongside FlipSid3 Tactics and Northern Gaming.This is the type of set Reunited can thrive in. They come in as fan favorite underdogs looking to make the incredible happen; with Mockit Aces in solid form going into playoffs, this set should be rather one sided. But if anyone was going to make this upset happen, it would be Reunited.Prediction: Mockit Aces 3-0 ReunitedPrecision Z (4) vs. Red Eye (5)Red Eye werent supposed to be here, let alone comfortably. Many people expected OhMyDog to make it here, or Red Eye to fall off after its excellent first half form, but it didnt. Unfortunately for Red Eye, the upset story should end here with Precision Z being heavy favorites to advance and to make LAN.If Red Eye can somehow keep its quietly consistent form going this match could be very close, but Precision Z may be just a little bit too good for them to keep up. With that said, dont count Red Eye out from the losers bracket. With two cracks at Precision Z, it could definitely be close.Prediction: Precision Z 3-2 Red Eye Kurt Rambis Jersey .4 million title. Ryan Riess emerged with the title after a session in which he started behind, but used expert skill to gather the chips to his side amid the unpredictability of no-limit Texas Hold em. Riess put his final opponent Jay Farber all-in with an Ace-King. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Lakers Jersey . On June 12, just as the sun sets on the magnificent historical city of Sao Paulo the inventors, innovators and purveyors of “joga bonitowill” open their campaign.

Robredo, ranked No. 16, bounced back from an upset loss to Leonardo Mayer in the second round of the Royal Guard Open in Chile last week to down Carreno Busta in 1 hour, 25 minutes. On a day filled mostly with qualifying matches, fifth-seeded Marcel Granollers of Spain also entered the second with a 7-5, 3-6, 6-2 win over Aljaz Bedene of Slovenia, while Guido Pella of Argentina defeated Guillermo Garcia-Lopez of Spain 7-6 (6), 6-4 to advance.

Drivers: Sebastian Vettel, Kimi Raikkonen Points: 398 (Third in constructors) Best result: 2nd (Multiple races) Best qualifying: 3rd, (Multiple race)There was so much hope around Ferrari in pre-season testing. Finally technical director James Allison had been given the opportunity to influence the design direction of a car from the ground up and it looked genuinely quick. Speaking at the launch of the SF16-H, team principal Maurizio Arrivabene said: Last year the objective was three victories, we got it. But I think this year we need to push a bit more. So its going to be the championship. At least we would like to fight until the end for the championship.The evidence of the first race suggested Ferrari could achieve its lofty ambitions as Sebastian Vettel took the lead in the first corner and only lost the race due to a poor strategy call under a red flag. But from that point onwwards things started to unravel.dddddddddddd Another shot at victory went begging in Spain and then a third in Canada. The car was far from a disaster, but progress was not matching ambition, and in Maranello that rarely goes unpunished. By July the team was having crisis talks chaired by CEO Sergio Marchionne and by August Allison had left the team.In his place Ferrari promoted engine boss Mattia Binotto, but only two more podiums followed. The technical side of the team has now been restructured to encourage ideas to flow more freely and reduce reaction time -- two aspects that will be keys to success under the new regulations in 2017 -- but the prospect of Ferrari winning a title looks more distant now than it has at any point in the last 12 months.
