Daniel Ricciardo could replace Narain Karthikeyan from the Grand Prix of Great Britain [confirmed]


Surprising news the world of formula one is full. Today we are told that Daniel Ricciardo could replace Narain Karthikeyan from Grand Prix of Great Britain. Although where I say "could replace", it seems that it would have to say "replace", since on that rumored, the negotiations will be already very advanced, yet determined.
That Ricciardo has surprised all the world is no longer anything new, and Toro Rosso le has been testing this season during the Friday, to give him more experience, and has continued earning good results comparable to those of Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari, with more experience in formula 1 he. Red Bull had hoped that Daniel could debut this year at Toro Rosso.
But they found something not expected, and that the two pilots of the Red Bull junior team is paying good level. Sebastien Buemi has been perhaps more constant but Jaime Alguersuari has had some touches of brilliance this season, and their flyers seemed already secure, prior to this news. Ricciardo was left without debuting this year... or not.
Toro Rosso would have negotiated with Hispania Racing F1 Team for the Australian pilot's debut as the next week in formula one, taking the place of Karthikeyan until end of season. There would be an exception to all this, and is that Karthikeyan would drive for the Grand Prize of the India, as it must stipulate the contract with Tata.
In principle, it seems that Red Bull wants to find out how competitive can be Ricciardo, and her ideas with Liuzzi, which was already in Toro Rosso in his day. The contract would be until the end of the year, and for 2012, Ricciardo would be transferred to Toro Rosso and Red Bull, if their results were very good, or of his "rivals" it were not for nothing. You will have to wait to see if it is confirmed officially.
Update: Hispania Racing F1 Team has confirmed what was already supposed to; Daniel Ricciardo will make his debut with them in the formula for the award of Great Britain next week.

Grand Prix of Canada F1 2011: confirmed areas of DRS


The Grand Prize of Canada will be the first of the calendar which will have two areas of operation of the DRS. A measure whose main objective is to facilitate overtaking at the Gilles Villeneuve circuit. However, some have their own doubts, Paddy Lowe, director of McLaren technical case, he believed that the system may not be as effective as you think.
It remained to confirm the area of measurement and the two drive of the DRS in the semi-urban layout of Montreal. The FIA has been reported that the measure with regard to the single-seater precedent will be out of the cradle of the curve 10, L'Epingle. The first zone of activation will be in the line of goal prior to the wall of champions. The second will be the goal line.
In this way come to confirm the fears of Paddy Lowe. It could be the case of overtaking in the first part of drive to take advantage of the second activation of the DRS to Earth's through with his rival. Seen so, do you think that the decision is correct?

The Valencian pilot responded that vehicles vehicles left for the future, for now I wanted to continue playing testing with single-seater, while the body hold the demand is greatest.

I would like to return to formula one in different circumstances, but I am proud to have another chance. I really enjoyed the last week in Jerez test and I adapte very well with the kids at the track. I have good feelings with the car, which is quite innovative. I'm extremely motivated and I'm looking forward to start the season.
