Kimi Raikkonen Debuts at the wheel of a Camping World Truck


They have already begun the first shots of contact of Kimi Raikkonen with NASCAR. This week the Finnish moved to Gresham Motorsports, in Georgia circuit, to test the pick up which will participate in the Camping World Truck Series, a Toyota Tundra framed within the team of Kyle Busch.
According to what you can also see on Twitter of the team, Ferrari was shot during the two days a total of 400 laps at the oval in half a mile of Gresham and said that you marking surprising times. In addition to the evidence the former formula one champion has also tapped to do business, and has closed a new sponsor for its North American phase, Perky Jerky a protein food.
At the same time we also could know some new detail on the relationship between Kimi and Kyle Busch. Apparently, not everything is as we do see. The pilot of the NASCAR did not have any special intention of having the services of the Finnish, this however pushed by one of the units of the Busch team.
Raikkonen plan is to pay for some races, three to five, in order to gain experience and create interest for sponsors for the next year, presumably to be directly involved in NASCAR. Kyle Busch did not know for Raikkonen, but give one of their excellent trucks to the Finnish in exchange for a cheque for 70,000 euros for each race in the USA.

Hispania Racing F1 Team Debuts nose and agreement with Mercedes GP at Sepang


In the absence of an official photo, toca put photo of the nose which we could see the Circuit de Catalunya. But hey, the news is that Hispania Racing F1 Team debuts during the Grand Prize of Malaysia nose. It's a nose high in the style of Mercedes GP and that should have been used a fortnight ago in Australia. But the new nose did not exceed the crash-test of the FIA and they had to wait.
Failing to see if finally mounted it during the Grand Prize and if all of the front wing will have more changes, this should mean an important step in the benefits of the single-seater. In the design of the f, work of Geoff Willis and Paul White, high nose plays an essential to channeling the air toward the rear diffuser and the hulks of cooling. Is it sufficient that Vitantonio Liuzzi and Narain Karthikeyan can qualify?.
The second story refers to a new partnership agreement, following the signing with Williams F1. Hispania Racing F1 Team may use one of the Mercedes GP wind tunnels to work in the aerodynamic development of the f. A single-seat which is designed entirely using CFD, as it has done Marussia Virgin Racing in his two seasons in formula one.

GP2 Asia Series Abu Dhabi: Jules Bianchi debuts in the first race of the year

 Career full of things that we have now lived in Abu Dhabi, after also interesting Grill yesterday. This has also served to see the first victory for Jules Bianchi in the category, leading out to tail race, defending pressure Romain Grosjean and Davide Valsecchi, who have completed the podium.

Due to this accident, red flag were pulled out and the race could not be resumed until half an hour later, behind the safety car. Bianchi kept the lead ahead of Grosjean and Valsecchi, positions remained until the end, although DAMS pilot put much effort.


Bianchi, he made a series of laps at the end of career, and these sentenced the result to distance themselves from "countryman" (remember that Grosjean is French for having been born in Switzerland licensed). Valsecchi had a quiet career that gives a podium to Team Air Asia on his debut.


After three members of the podium, a thrilling match has ended with a good overtaking from Marcus Ericsson about Giedo van der Garde on the last lap. In summary, the race has been quite entertaining, showing that the new single-seater seems so demanding as above.


Talking about new stuff, this race has also served to see the debut of the new Pirelli tyres. Although some teams were afraid that these desgastaran very fast in this race has been no problem. In fact, some pilots have done much of the same with the same game.
