The best time of the first session of the Grand Prize of Canada classification has been for Nico Rosberg. Although the other news of the day has been the new name that is added to the famous wall of Champions; Sebastian Vettel. The German driver has lost control in the last chicane of the circuit and this has led to his Red Bull to impact with the wall, although it seems that its chassis is well.
The red flag released after the accident at the German pilot has lasted just a few minutes, so that it has not bothered too teams in their work of the session. Despite the clash, has to be said for the first time in several years the asphalt of the circuit of Montreal is in good condition, and not it melts with the passage of cars, which is a good news.
It is to comment on that Ferrari look good. Both Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa has been throughout the session in fairly quick time, and the end result has been satisfactory. It is clear that it should not be carried away by the results, and is that it is only the first session of free practice, and things can change much between today and tomorrow.
But, in any case, that the Ferrari well now is a good sign, because that lets us see that the car has some potential in the Canadian circuit. Another team that seems to go well in Canada is Mercedes Grand Prix, in part due to its powerful engine, probably. Both Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg have been setting competitive times.
Going back further, we see that both the McLaren and Red Bull have played a discreet role, which is suspicious, taking into account that today they are probably the two teams with the best set of whole grilled. It will have to wait for the second session to try to draw more conclusions. In addition, sure that Vettel would later have been if he had not had the accident.
Jaime Alguersuari, for its part, has been thirteenth, just ahead of Daniel Ricciardo, while his Toro Rosso has the golden colour slightly different this weekend, which has brought more rumors about the possible purchase of the reserve team of Red Bull by Aabar. With regard to the Hispania, they are now within the 107%, and mixed with the Virgin, and this is also good news.
