Fernando Alonso qualifies his remarks about their options in 2011


Fernando Alonso has tempered his statements about their options in 2011, after what has been said in the last few hours. Since yesterday, the world of formula 1 is confused with statements in which the Asturian ensured that they could fight for the Championship; and this morning has been released, in an act of Shell, which "is easier to do the Camino de Santiago, which traced the 92 points".
Without doubt, contradictory statements, but still more to be done with less than 24 hours apart. Now, Ferdinand had to "resolve the wrong" and solve questions that has caused us. His speech has now changed to "there is still time to react;" or what is the same, there is a chance to win, but there are few and pass by the fact that Ferrari will improve the competitiveness of your car.
Alonso explains that his aim should be winning every race in which to compete, although many times it is impossible, the objective is there. It also ensures that the seven Grands Prix which have been held so far have been the best seven of his professional career in formula one, so it makes it clear that he is in top form. He says that they have been the best seven sessions of classification, the seven best outputs; all.
With such conviction, one wonders what would happen if Ferrari were competitive. Fernando aims we can discover it before the end of the year. However, recognises that the change of rules with regard to the mapping of the engine will not change things, and unlike many of his followers, has been very good for Sebastian Vettel words.
Alonso says that although training Seb was two tenths faster than others, race and the rain that distance reached the eight tenths in race, which believes that the secret of its speed is not only Red Bull ultra-competitivo. Finally, the Ferrari driver said he believed that they will be competitive in Valencia, as they were already in Monaco and Canada.

Jaime Alguersuari tired of rumors about his future


There are many rumors have appeared throughout the season putting in question the future of Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari. Within the program of young pilots of Red Bull is the best thing that can happen to a young pilot, but instead, chosen must be aware that without results, finishing off, it is more than feasible.
And when you're in Toro Rosso getting good performances it is complicated. Daniel Ricciardo increasingly large shadow duo Buemi Alguersuari is constantly being challenged with more than one them has been placed outside the team before the end of the season. Therefore today Jaime Alguersuari has said enough stating that he is tired of rumors about his future and which today has nothing to prove. Barcelona's pilot indicates those interested to know something more about their future ask Helmut Marko. Perhaps there is the problem.
I thought it was one rumor of the thousands of rumors that converge in the F1 throughout the year. But at the end of the press conference, for the first time I noticed der I'm tired of so many silly and boring them. Apparently, any rumor comes from where come, signed by anyone, or perhaps, not signed, have stronger than statements Franz Tost or Helmut Marko
But beyond the own of the paddock rumours, would have to say that some of these statements have been both Tost and Marko. The Toro Rosso Team Principal and director of the Red Bull Junior Team have fueled the rumors with their words. And to them we have to do something case. It was Helmut Marko himself who said last April that Buemi and Alguersuari are fighting for a seat...

Ferrari complains about the danger of the small teams


This time there has been no names with in the past. After the incident between Felipe Massa and Narain Karthikeyan during the past Grand Prize of Canada, Ferrari has complained about the small teams due to his lack of speed and because of the inexperience of some of its pilots, something they understand that it is detrimental to them. And it is not the first time the Italian team do. Its President, Luca Cordero di Montezemolo is an expert in launch messages to the new teams, which were ruined with his idea of three cars by racing team, the wet dream of the Italian.
In the specific case of Massa and Karthikeyan, the Brazilian has stated to the press by his country to Hispania Racing F1 Team driver was hindered in its advancement, accelerating in the area dry when Ferrari came to exceed it by the wet area. The result of this maneuver ended up with the spoiler of the Ferrari 150 ? Italy Massa completely shattered although he was lucky not to have to abandon the race.

Start rumors about the dance of pilots


Not even the silly season has come and with her typical formula one transfer rumours, but nevertheless it seems that this year we are going to have to talk about possible changes of cards before the account. Felipe Massa, with contract with Ferrari until 2012 (included), it seems that it will not continue beyond this season. The movement of the Brazilian became the mother of all these hypothetical movements.
Felipe mass left Ferrari but he would not leave the formula one because his name sounds to replace Mark Webber at Red Bull. The Australian will not continue in the Austrian team is almost certain the option of promoting a Toro Rosso driver is more than feasible.
The free Ferrari seat became a piece desired by many but the Italian team seems to have a candidate, Nico Rosberg. Even from Ferrari have recognised contacts with Rosberg and its surroundings. The problem is that the German will contract at the end of 2012 with the German team, as well as Michael Schumacher. Escape the long shadow of Schumacher not him as much, Ferrari it is clear that they will seek a Squire for Fernando Alonso, not someone who will steal limelight.
Finally, the seat of Mercedes GP has a firm in Paul Di Resta candidate. The Scottish driver is Mercedes-Benz and in his formula one debut the Stuttgart manufacturer is of great importance. It would be logical to give an opportunity to a raised pilot under its umbrella in the style of Red Bull.

Robert Kubica is about to receive the medical discharge


After some time without news of Polish we can finally give you good news on the State of health of Kubica. Apparently, Robert is already able to receive the high medical after the serious accident during the course of Rally Ronde di Andora at the beginning of this year. The man of Lotus Renault Grand Prix has been him four operations, which have been reduced damage in his right hand, forearm, elbow and foot.
According to the spokesman of the Pietre Ligure clinic, which is entered the pilot, there is no danger of infection and even says that Kubica could leave the facility physician before Easter. No doubt good news for fans that little by little we see as one of the best drivers in the world of formula 1 is closer to their recovery and therefore, if possible, of the tracks.

David Richards talks about the possibility of having ten Mini Countryman WRC in 2012


It's impressive to see how it has changed the landscape of world Rallye. While last year saw many lists of registered several squalid, this season are beginning to see much evidence that far outweigh the dozen of World Rally Cars in what is still the year of its debut. A clear example is that of Mini. After the two official drivers, already begins to rumors about the possibility of having more WRC Countryman from next season.
Dani Sordo and Kris Meeke units, they join this year, from Sardinia, Armindo Araujo and Daniel Oliveira. But the true hatching is expected from the next season when David Richards would expect to see up to 10 units of the new Countryman WRC by the sections of the Rallye world. An incredible number to be added to those who will also have Ford and Citroen.
According to our Portuguese colleagues of Autosport, which are the source of this news, the decoration that we saw during the Monday after the presentation in Oxford of the team will not be final. Within a few weeks we will see the printing and the sponsors that will take the team on her forthcoming debut at Italy.

Sebastian Vettel is still complaining about the buttons and foreshadowed a pilots strike

Since he began the season, Sebastian Vettel has been one of the pilots more critical with the excess of buttons on the steering wheel of cars. The arrival of the mobile phone rear spoiler and the KERS has added two important buttons to the usual. Now try to find the appropriate button when you go to 300 kilometers per hour is a bit trickier. Something that does not seem logical and without a doubt it is a security issue for pilots. Where do those flyers from the 80's with only two buttons?.
If the situation is agudizase dangerous way, I think that we would have the strength to impose our decision
This could be a personal complaint of Vettel, but bearing in mind that the German is one of the three representatives of the pilots within the Association of pilots, the GPDA, their complaints may rise a little more and have more value. While in these complaints Sebastian Vettel has come to declare that if the situation does not change, the pilots will be raised to strike. A sufficiently strong and clear cry as the FIA taking letters on the matter quickly.
There are several options, so far as to not run if a dangerous situation has not changed. We are going to talk to the International Federation to find a reasonable solution, before finishing in a strike

McLaren drivers worried about the car



A couple of days ago we wondered where McLaren will be 2011, because it doesn't surprise us read and read that the car is very radical, that to see if they are not hit with the McLaren MP4-26... Like everything in this life, insurance that is neither, nor so bald. To assess a bit more where it will be the car (and I believe that it will be fine, if not in the first races Yes to measure the season go ahead), we can see the statements of Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button and his impressions on the car.
The key to what is missing in the car for Hamilton is simple: lacks it grip, rather "downforce". What says the English part is that you remember you to the nervousness of the car of 2009, when "it was terrible, it was bouncing, three wheels by curves, I had no grip".

This is not blocked, is not to three-wheeled, and it is quite manageable, better than the car of the year, but do not have too much agarre… is there where it seems weak.
Fortunately we have some more downforce the car in a package that we will have before the first race
Jenson Button also believes that is can take much more advantage to the single-seat (hence that we are convinced that in the medium term we will have forgotten the doubts of this MP4-26) by the lack of testing mileage.
The first time that I got to the car did not think "Wow, we are going to overwhelm everyone with this car". No, we have much less grip, the tires are very different from the anteriores… There is nothing that I fear I really with this car, but there is still much possible improvement through the general setup
Concern, although nuanced, by a car that has lot of potential (a priori) but to be getting it. I believe, already third time that I mention in this post, yes they are going to get, but today we can only ensure that car wakes up and sweeps, or either the car is mediocre, either is bad. That is a not too nice way of saying that we have no idea.

Bernie Ecclestone Friday changed his mind after ringing a hope that if the opening race of the season formula in Bahrain 2011 to be held.

When asked if he fears that he will have to cancel the race, Ecclestone replied: "I am not afraid to anything, just that things have changed and we must wait and see the weekend exactly what changes".

"At this point is good", he admitted.

The FOTA met for a two hour in Barcelona on Friday meeting and spokesman Christian Horner said that it should be "wait and see what happens".

In today's was seen to the President of the Catalan Generalitat stroll Raikkonen taking advantage of the formula one pre-season tests. As usual, the politicians fail to stitch without thread, so Artur Mas it has tapped to comment on the future of the Catalan route.

And if we make case comments, I would say that we do not know if it has ensured its presence at least until the end of his current contract or whether fans should fear the loss of the Grand Prize of Spain. Artur Mas it has been too ambiguous to the future of the Circuit de Catalunya formula. Just as the second cites the European Grand Prix in Valencia Street Circuit, it is a complicated situation that could end with the quote from Spanish land.

I am here to take over. This world means a great deal, part of the sport, which is already important enough by itself. We are spoken in a sector, automovilisco, that moves and activates the economy. This country needs you shake and turn the economy and the F1 help for this

are in a time of severe budgetary restrictions and in need of the Generalitat of reduced budgets. This will slightly affect everything. We must pass these two difficult years and if we recover, this contract we have for a few years we will see with better eyes and conditions
we will do everything possible so that it is not. I cannot hide that we are in a time of enormous financial difficulties. We know that this type of racing are deficit, that entries not covered in any way the cost of these races, especially of F1. And the difficulties do not have to hide. We will try to find solutions. This year Grand Prix will be disputed. I hope that the next year, also

So after reading statements can understand so that will have formula for the next two years but that from there will be the economic situation which mark the rhythm. The EUR 13 million currently pays the Circuit de Catalunya to receive the formula become 26 million by the year 2016, last year of the contract. A high figure, and that makes up a circuit that will meet 20 years together with formula one in 2011 to see how their future isn't secured.
