Grand Prix of Spain F1 2011: Nick Heidfeld teaches alternative tactics

The fire that left seriously damaged the R31 Renault's Nick Heidfeld during the third session of free practice in the morning of Saturday, prevented the German pilot to come to court and therefore could not aspire rather to the last position on the grid.
In the past, leaving from as far back on the grid, it amounted to seek a tactical risky (usually less stops) and try to expect that a safety-car will help you to reach the positions of points. In the Chinese Grand Prix, Mark Webber showed us a small sample of what could be coming out from behind, and with the same tactics than its rivals. The podium of Webber was a magnificent result.
During the Grand Prize of Spain, tactics with tires reached higher levels. Red Bull renouncing a last attempt is so logical, but see how Paul Di Resta renounced make even an attempt during the Q2 in order to maintain two sets of intact soft compounds. But If someone was able to play more than anyone the tactic of save tires was Nick Heidfeld. To be on track for qualification, allowed the German to compete with new games all stints, four of the race.
Two sets of soft tyres and two sets of completely new hard tires allowed that Heidfeld and the Lotus Renault R31, reaching the eighth position. Things like these make us think that simply with a good rhythm and renouncing the Q2, it is possible to get a good starting position to think about a comeback. Perhaps this is not the way to achieve victories, Barrichello was with five sets of new tires (three soft and two hard) and finished in a more than modest seventeenth position, but if you can do to think some face to score pointsIt is possible.

The Circuit de Catalunya is the alternative of teams for the final pre-season test

Day, teams will meet under the foci of the FOTA. Beyond the proposed themes will be a bonus point which should put much attention. It is the FOTA decides circuits is to try during the preseason and in due course, it was she who decided that it was a good idea to test in Bahrain a week before the world of formula 1 played there same his first race of the year. It was a good idea in order to evaluate all the work done during this period.

But now to the dispute of the Bahrain Grand Prix is a tremendous mystery. Therefore the teams could be an important step. Packing and sending materials and equipment to middle, the formula one teams would prefer to return to test at the Circuit de Catalunya and thus give an extra week to all calm in the Kingdom of the two seas. The decision is to take themselves which in this case nor FOM (Bernie Ecclestone), or FIA have vote. Although it is possible that if have a voice.
