Lotus Renault GP will not have to change its decoration to the Grand Prize of Canada 2011, but perhaps to 2012

Lotus Renault GP will not have to change its decoration to the Grand Prize of Canada 2011, but perhaps it for 2012. This information is which is distilled from the official statements of the team after learning that, fortunately for them, not they will have to devise a new decoration only to the Grand Prize of Canada 2011.

During the last few weeks there has been enough on the possibility that the black and gold decoration of Lotus Renault Grand Prix, which evokes the colours of John Player Special, was not in line with the Government regulation on tobacco in the sport. In the end, the two parties involved have been in which Lotus Renault Grand Prix not draw any benefit from "JPs".

Therefore it is assumed that the item would be closed. Nevertheless, Eric Boullier, who wanted to thank the Government of the area for its good faith, he explains that looking ahead to next year, it is very possible that seeking a solution, with more time, by the fact that cars further comply with the regulations.

If this means that Lotus Renault GP in 2012 will be painted with other colours throughout the year, or that they are only going to change for Canada, it is something that we do not know. In any case, it would not surprise me that they try to play any other decor that does not have any relationship with the tobacco, such as the "Essex" in 1980. Time will tell.

The race of Champions could be compelled to change the date

It seems that all the mess produced in Bahrain, and the great interest that will dispute the test, going to December the Grand Prize of India, may require more than one to change their plans. In addition to delaying the holidays of the formula one drivers, the race of Champions may also be affected by this change of dates, forcing the organizers to change the current forecast. Let us not forget that the test will be held this year in Frankfurt being originally planned for 3 and 4 December.
And it is that in the Race of Champions of this year is still waiting for participation, as usual, many drivers of formula one, which are often found the German Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel. The new option on the table would be that the participating pilots traveling from New Delhi on December 9, place where there is this year the FIA gala, to Frankfurt for the next day a cup of Nations.

Tony Fernandes does not plan to change the name of the formula one team, but that of GP2

Today has become official purchase of Caterham Cars by Team Lotus. Questions about the future have been many, for Tony Fernandes, who has stated that he does not plan to change the name of the formula one team, although that of GP2.
Indeed, what today is known as "Team Air Asia" in GP2 will change name to something like "AirAsia Caterham". I say like, because officially it is still not confirmed, and the own Tony Fernandes does not know if it will take time and permission to change the name.
During the event today in Duxford, Fernandes has said that it is funny how life changes the preset paths. These comments relate to how the last year it seemed that the Union between Group Lotus and Team Lotus would end up happening.
The Malaysian explains that if he could, day, return to the past and decide with whom you want to join, you would do with Caterham, and no Group Lotus. Hot air which is expected on the day of the announcement, but is interesting to see the opinion of Fernandes.

FIA considering to change the order of output in the WRC

Long time they were taking to the Federation. Recent years have seen most shows with regard to strategies and loss of time mysterious to not open track in the rallies of Earth. Now it seems that the FIA wakes up and is looking to implement a new regulation on the order of output in the world of rallyfor Sardinia.
The plan would return to the old system of investing the classification of the fifteen top so the leader comes out in fifteenth position and not look so damaged as up to now by opening track. Olivier Quesnel has already stated to agree with the idea, but the problem comes with Malcolm Wilson, which apparently is not agreed to revert to the old regulation.

We are seeing very exciting racing at this time and if we go back to the system to reverse the order, we could start to have some fairly predictable results.

From the FIA they intend to take the decision before even of the next test, The Rally of Sardinia, where the order of output will be crucial in the face of the struggle for the victory. However it seems that the opinion of the Chief of M, can scupper plans for the Federation and keep the current system.

We are watching closely if the regulation can be changed before the next test of the Championship. We must carefully study all the aspects and we would like to have the approval of the equipment before making the change.

Michelin will change the compound of their tyres to reduce the number of pins

The four puncture of Petter Solberg during the day on Friday of the Rally of Portugal indicated that he was not going well. Michelin has looked this year by a very fast tyre, which makes that even these new World Rally Cars are rolling faster than last year, but very soft in his case and that therefore has less resistance in the face of the puncture.
That is why Michelin has decided to spend a wild, by agreement the FIA only allows a change of substance, to prepare a new with the goal of having less puncture. However the controversy comes when apparently the French factory will not spend this unique opportunity that it has received a "special" adoption by the International Federation to have a chance during the year.
Somewhat surprising that we must not forget that this year the free choice of tyres has faced Michelin DMack and expected that brands change compounds with a view to the Rally of Wales, with a very sliding road. In this way the FIA again placed on the side of one of the two manufacturers with such partial vision to which we are accustomed.

Ferrari returns to change the name of its seat for the 2011 season

Something less than a month ago because there was a change of name. Now, Ferrari back to change the name of its seat for the 2011 season, to finish in a friendly way with the "problems" with Ford and his model of street. From now on, we will have to talk about the Ferrari F150 F150th Italy 150 ?.
This new name change has been announced in the column of the "Horse Whisperer" on the official website of the team of Maranello. Obviously, this column has maintained the satirical tone, leaving some another shoot for Ford and the supposed "American consumers to confuden a single-seat formula 1 with a truck".

In his line, therefore. In any case, it is supposed that the name is now final, and the more correct to speak of the new Ferrari will be saying "100th fiftieth" (or its Italian translation "centocincuantesimo"), as written know what Ferrari 150 ?. Menudos names!
In any case, and another order of things, from the same column ensures that your car is a competitive car. They added that they expect to be able to focus, from now on, to make the car not only competitive, but also winning, in order to achieve what they failed to win in 2010.

GP2 Asia Series change Bahrain by the circuit of Imola

After the incidents in the formula not only Bahrain it has been affected by the cancellations. As I already said my fellow GV27, the last two races of the Championship of the GP2 Asia were also suspended. This a category with very few runs in its schedule obviously affected much more than in the great circus, with 20 test scheduled for this year.
Therefore the Championship organizers have decided to make an additional race. That if, against the policy of the Championship, such a test will take place on European soil, in particular in the circuit of Imola. The race will replace the two that were to be played in Bahrain and will drop the curtain of a rather movidito season.

We needed a week to put everything in order and have the certainty that everything was properly organised, and that we could do something good. That is why we chose Imola and are going to run it an event, which will be the last of the GP2 Asia Series and which will replace the two cancelled events of Bahrain.

Grand Prix of Australia will not change time

Last season we had much controversy regarding the hours of the Grand Prix. One of which was not fought was Australia in the 2010 season proved a new formula disputing his career from five in the afternoon. This allowed that European fans we need not much early to follow was first Grand Prix of the season, but it also brought some problems.

The main reason for discussion was the safety of drivers. And it is from a certain time the visibility was reduced and could cause serious problems for the presence of rain. For this season own competitors called prevailed in an hour the start of the race.The FIA has ignored these complaints and has again put at five in the afternoon, local time in Melbourne, the second race of the season.
