There were no obvious first-game jitters from Dan Hawkins in the Alouettes 38-33 win on Winnipeg on Thursday. However, it wasnt the smoothest debut as there are still a couple of things to work on. But in the end, a close road victory is the same value as a home blow-out win. At least Hawkins had fun in his professional coaching debut. "There are a lot of games that are going to be close, so you kind of know its going to be like that, thats what makes it fun," said Hawkins. Fun it was. The Alouettes started strong with a Geoff Tisdale interception on the Bombers first offensive play at Investors Group Field. This led to a Chris Jennings TD and then, on Winnipegs first punt of the game, Tyrone Carrier took it to the house. Winnipeg bounced back nicely for their fans but in the end, Montreals offence got back on track by the fourth quarter when Calvillo finally found the end zone with a 42-yard strike to S.J. Green. Here are some of my observations from Week 1 for the Alouettes. Positive yards Dan Hawkins: Seemed to have an early grasp on the CFL game. He managed the clock well, conceded safeties when needed and procedure calls were minimal. S.J. Green: Came up big when needed. In a receiving corps full of stars, he caught the game-breaking touchdown and was the most reliable of the bunch on the night. Geoff Tisdale: I felt he was involved, he did get hit up on the Clarence Denmark TD but it was tight coverage. His early interception did help the Alouettes set the tone for the first half. Tyrone Carrier and Noel Devine: You can already sense a jump in the Alouettes special teams game as both have dynamic speed. Devine also brought a certain punch to the Als offence when needed. Other Notable Positives: Kyries Hebert, Mike Edem, Sean Whyte. Negative yards Pass Protection: The same issue the Alouettes had last season once Brandon Whitaker went down to injury. It is never good when a 40-year-old QB gets sacked five times in a game. Special teams coverage: This will take time with a brand new coaching staff but the Als saw too many TDs returned against them last season so adjustments will need to be made to solve an early problem. Jamel Richardson: After a sub-par season in 2012, youd expect a few mistakes early in the season but it looked just like last season. Other Notable Negatives: Luc Brodeur-Jourdain, Chris Jennings On the injury front, the main concern was Anthony Calvillos throwing hand as halfway through the game, he was wincing after hitting it on a helmet. He didnt miss a snap so the worries were put to rest quickly. Calvillo started strong, struggled a little in the third quarter but came out firing in the fourth after trying to rally the troops with some rarely shown emotion after a Chris Jennings drop. All in all, Montreal picked up a road win to start the season, which is never easy. They get to do it all over against Winnipeg next Thursday in Montreal. Expect Winnipeg to make some adjustments and hope Montreal makes some of their own, too. For more on Twitter: @seanrcampbell Fake Shoes From China . And when it opened, every player was at his stall.

SUZUKA, Japan -- Daniel Ricciardo hopes Mercedes decision to go conservative with its engine settings at this weekends Japanese Grand Prix will create an opportunity for Red Bull to bring the fight to the championship leaders at Suzuka.The Australian won the Malaysian Grand Prix last weekend after Lewis Hamilton suffered an engine failure 16 laps from the end. In reaction to the failure, Mercedes is running revised parameters for its engine this weekend, including a more conservative oil specification.That could bring us closer, yes, absolutely, Ricciardo said. Forgetting what happened last weekend, coming into this race we always thought it was going to be one where we can probably have an advantage over Ferrari.And if it is wet sure we can get really close to Mercedes. I know that wet race in 2014 our race pace was really good. At the time we were a bit quicker than Mercedes in the race, and the deficit was bigger than it is now in terms of machinery. So we will be pretty racy. Dry conditions, qualifying, they will still have a little bit on us, but I think we will keep it within half a second.Asked why Red Bull has an advantage over Mercedes in the wet, Ricciardo addded: They probably have too much power! So traction and things like that they might struggle a little bit more.dddddddddddd It doesnt seem we have to work that hard to get a good car in the wet. In the wet you still need a good car, you still need to balance it.Normally in the past it just feels like if it rains then it doesnt matter what set-up we have in the car. Normally we have pretty good grip, so we probably just have a bigger window in the wet conditions. That is the obvious thing for me which stands out.After taking his first win since 2014 in Malaysia, Ricciardo is hoping to keep the momentum going this weekend.Since Silverstone I had not been on the podium for a while, and then in Budapest I got a podium, and since then I have had a podium at every race except Monza. So you could say I have had good momentum.
