Michael Schumacher will continue in 2012

Despite the fact that there is the possibility of contractual Michael Schmuacher take of Villadiego if he was not happy with his position in the Championship with Mercedes GP, this has been confirmed to be in the 2012 championship Yes or Yes. Ross Brawn already said the possibility of Michael Schumacher to decide for itself to terminate the contract if he didn't feel comfortable in the European Grand Prix. But there is still room for improvement and the heptacampeon feels that it is not at the peak of his ability behind the wheel.
Schumacher insists that he regrets not that on his return has not possible before, always has to be set in the performance of the driver for the car which has between hands. In other words, that he is giving the maximum but it is a matter of time go slowly progressing upwards, as always (says) has happened in the age of 16 for the first time in Formula 1.

There is nothing magic about be ahead. Is all a matter of time, sustained, staying motivated and hard working progress

No doubt this is one of the best qualities of Michael Schumacher, staying motivated when he went for his victories, and stay motivated after year after year to have broken the absolute record of WINS and World Championships. And no doubt his ability to work will take you to be ahead, if not beating as old, it still regularly the top 5 or top 4, that certainly.

Nico Rosberg will continue in Mercedes GP until 2016

After the extension of the contract of Fernando Alonso, another pilot that terminated his contract in 2012, Nico Rosberg, will extend his contract with Mercedes GP for four season, until 2016. The German pilot ensures a hole in the team after the end of the first "block". It will be to see if Michael Schumacher, whose contract ends in 2012 also, renewed or decides to hang up the town definitely (who think otherwise that raise your hand).
In this way, Britney Spears (as he called his mecanicos at Williams F1) or the Prince of Shrek (as affectionately call him elsewhere) ensures the presence in a top team for four years more. It is clear that Mercedes GP will invest much in search of his first victory in formula one and Nico Rosberg will, a priori, be his number one driver. All for not exceed 130 races needed Mark Webber to achieve a victory (Rosberg leads 95).

Advised Grand Prix Melbourne continue in F1

Most of the city of Melbourne Councillors believe that Grand Prize Australia must remain the capital of Victoria.

The annual event, which dates back to 1996, has attracted international media recently, especially that the mayor said that State Government must not sign a new contract.

But the pattern of F1, Bernie Ecclestone guided the coup and the matter returned to the headlines this week.

Michael Danby, whose constituency includes the area of Albert Park, told Parliament that their constituents overwhelmingly supported the renewal of the event.

But the Herald Sun newspaper claims is that the views of Danby and Lord Mayor Robert Doyle is not actually widespread.

The report said Doyle has eight companions Melbourne Councillors and seven of them "want to keep the annual event that he is saying that his time was over".

"I want to be here as long as possible," said Councilman Charles Jetter, and his colleague Kevin Louey agree F1 is "a difference of other sporting events" and "enhances the name of Melbourne".

Spanish circuits transferred to continue hosting offseason workouts

Circuits, formula Hunaudieres 18 February 2011 | 22: 07 To vote this post connect with Facebook Connect

It seems that the crisis is wreaking havoc in the formula 1 teams, accustomed to having figures disparate in their budgets. One of the first symptoms was the disappearance of the mega-presentations we were accustomed to (except in specific cases of Ferrari and McLaren) and now it appears that "they scratched" of where necessary to reduce costs.

The vanguard reported this offseason, the formula one teams have tried will take advantage of each of the tests are held in Spain. Looking at preseason tests are each a kind of Grand Prix 0 with much public payment, teams have requested circuits part of revenue collection and reduction in track rental prices.

And to strength with its position, represented in the FOTA teams put on the table some good cards to justify their request. The Algarve circuit in Portimao offered free track and 20,000 euros per team while plotting Sakhir in Bahrain paid posting, taking into account the first Grand Prix of the season is held there, or at least that Interestingly the intention.

Everyone present in the offseason Spanish circuits has negotiated conditions. The circuit of Jerez has lowered the price of the rental of the track in the four days of test, something that also made the Circuit of the Comunitat Valenciana Ricardo Tormo in Cheste, which even included 30 per cent of the collection. The Circuit de Catalunya for his part has not reduced rent but if given a percentage of revenues at the box office of the public.

It may seem like much money, but we ourselves can do calculations. 25,000 spectators present at the Circuit de Catalunya during the four days. Price of tickets between 5 and 10 euros (say that half of the public with a type and the other half with another), if we remove the rental of 4 days, about 40,000 euros per day, each team would win less than 1,000 euros, a genuine misera for teams with a budget half close to EUR 100 million.

Red Bull will continue its policy of rivalry between pilots

I think that at the end of last season, the denial of the Red Bull team orders were more an act of face to the Gallery (them had refused by active and passive) than a reality. The possibility of losing the title of pilots, which really worth advertising but not economically not entered the plans of the heads of the team, at least not in Christian Horner. The British if left reveals the possibility of studying their use, but quickly returned to the fold marked by Dietrich Mateschitz: team orders are not a possibility.

Even though that pays the Bills, Dietrich Mateschitz not read again and again that it would not have that kind of movements all expected something. In the end things of fate, Red Bull, won the Championship pilots without having to resort to "internal management". And he did with the pilot appeared in a situation worse. Sometimes all goes well. I do not think that, or at best dreams they thought in a perfect situation. To be able to vote this post you must login or register here.

Mateschitz us into the head than to be world champion pilot Red Bull must first beat teammate. In 2011, it will again be the case and the current champion, Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber will have to fight against his rival and fellow to be champion. Nothing warrants team to Red Bull in 2011. Policy commendable, especially when this season and thanks to Ferrari team tactics will be again allowed.

The own Mateschitz has augured a situation similar to last year. Infighting which will take place on the track with messages on radio equipment, gestures and faces long on the podium in function if win one or the other and perhaps some maneuvering of overtaking that end with everyone outside career. That taking Red Bull will once again be at the top. I think that that nobody doubts.

Marko: Toro Rosso will continue to support the rookies

The sports motor, Dr. Helmut Marko Adviser refuses to rule out a change of line-up of pilots for the second team of Red Bull, Toro Rosso this season.

Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari are starting the year at the wheel of the STR6 engined Ferrari, but highly qualified pilots are waiting for their chance to implement at the controls of a F1 race. Everyone wants to be Red Bull wings.

Of the couple, Daniel Ricciardo is that tie most high-profile and was testing the car in Jerez on Thursday and is scheduled to make sessions every Friday morning in 20 Grands Prix this season.

But Marko, Red Bull, inimitable pilots Manager also defends the French Jean-Eric Vergne.

Ricciardo and Vergne we have two exceptional talents." "Buemi and Alguersuari know that their work is not a pillow, and we are not a school," said the Austrian.

Marko has a reputation for ruthless director of pilots, not doubting in put pressure to race for Toro Rosso drivers.

"Buemi services last year were not what we expected of him", he warns. "Alguersuari has grown, but is it enough?"

Marko hailed the pace of Ricciardo, as already shown in the Abu Dhabi race last November, and said that the spirit of struggle of Vergne is incomparable.

"If our four pilots was side by side in a curve, I assure you Vergne out across first", said.
