Valtteri Bottas believes he can win with Williams next year - a belief which persuaded the Finn to stay with the team for 2017. Bottas has raced for the Grove-based team since 2013, stepping up to a race seat after 15 outings in first practice the previous season.His best result to date is second place, which he achieved at the 2014 British and German grands prix, but the Finn believes 2017s new rules will give him the chance to go one better with Williams. I think it is a great opportunity for a team to catch up the leading teams when there is a big rule change like next year, Bottas told Sky Sports News HQ.Williams normally have been pretty good after a regulation change, they have been very quick in learning the new car and finding the latest tweaks and I believe in this team. I believe we have deserved much more than we have achieved together and I think that is possible and why I am here. Williams confirm Bottas and Stroll Lance Stroll will partner Valtteri Bottas at Williams in 2017 Bottas is thought to have been courted by Renault as they sought to revamp their 2017 line-up, but the Finn believes he has a better chance of success at Williams.I still believe we can do better than we have done in the last three years. That is why I still believe in this team and why I want to stay, he added.Now the only thing I am thinking is I want us to perform better, I want us to achieve more together and that is the only thing in my mind together. I believe we can win races together, but we really need to work hard for that and lets hope next year it is possible. After three years alongside Felipe Massa - a veteran of almost 250 races - Bottas now will find himself as the senior driver at the team as he embarks on a partnership with 18-year-old Lance Stroll, who only graduated to car racing in 2014.Senior driver sounds a bit weird, Ive just started, but there are much younger drivers now in Formula 1! said Bottas.I think he is a very talented driver, seeing his career before F1 has been very impressive, hes won every championship hes been in and has dominated F3 which is a very high-level series. He is obviously a talented racing driver, he is going to learn quickly, and as a team we are all going to help him to learn to quickly and I see no problem for him to be very quickly up to speed. Im sure we can be a good pair.

ATLANTA -- The Colorado Rockies began another day without Carlos Gonzalez in their starting lineup with the more daunting knowledge Nolan Arenado will be missing for much longer. The Rockies placed Arenado on the 15-day disabled list Saturday, one day after he broke his left middle finger on a head-first slide into second base. The team recalled infielder Josh Rutledge from Triple-A Colorado Springs. Arenado was hitting .305 with six homers and 28 RBIs. A decision on surgery or other treatment options wont be made until the third baseman is examined by a specialist. Arenado said Saturday he knew the finger was broken as soon as he made the slide in Fridays 3-2 loss to the Braves. "I kind of feel like Im letting these guys down a little bit," Arenado said. "That hurts a little bit." Manager Walt Weiss said he knew Arenado was upset "so I shot him a text late last night." "At some point, if youre lucky enough to play long enough, youre probably going to have to deal with an injury," Weiss said. "And sometimes a substantial one. Hes got to keep his mind strong and be ready to help us when he gets ready." Charlie Culberson, who replaced Arenado on Friday, was starting at third base Saturday. Meanwhile, Gonzalez missed his third straight start with a swollen left index finger.ddddddddddddWeiss said he didnt want to give Gonzalez a full game but said the outfielder was available to pinch-hit. Gonzalez was on deck to pinch-hit when Fridays game ended. Rutledge has played second base and shortstop this season. He was placed on the 15-day DL on May 2 with a viral infection, then was optioned to Colorado Springs on May 13. The addition of Rutledge gives Colorado the flexibility to move D.J. LeMahieu from second base to third. "Weve got some moving parts here so well mix and match at little bit," Weiss said. "Some of those things tend to work themselves out, but weve got some options. "Sure, D.J.s got some history at third base. Hes playing a Gold Glove second base. You dont necessarily want to move a guy thats playing dominant defence like he is, but for our cl
