* AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti, whose team are sixth in Serie A, said he would love to end his career at former club AS Roma.

"To finish with Roma would be really beautiful," he told La7 television.

"Rome is the most beautiful city in the world, a city like Rome you don't find anywhere else."

* Marcello Lippi, who coached Italy to World Cup glory in 2006 before stepping down, has not ruled out returning to the job in the future.

"In life you never say never. One day, I don't know when...it would not displease me to return to coach Italy," he was quoted as saying by Italian media.

* British Grand Prix organisers said they would build an additional 2,200 grandstand seats for the July 6 Formula One race to meet what they said was an overwhelming demand for tickets. Last year's race at Silverstone, with Britain's Lewis Hamilton on pole position for McLaren in his debut season, had a capacity of 85,000.

Hamilton is leading this season's championship after two races.

* Ferrari president Luca Montezemolo has backed underfire Brazilian driver Felipe Massa. "His position is absolutely not under discussion. We have the best two drivers in the world," Montezemolo told reporters.
