The FIA leaves the door open to delay the entry of engine 1.6 turbo 4-cylinder


The last Friday 3rd of June of the FIA World Council gave to much. Confirmed both the formula one calendar from the WRC, reprogrammed the dispute of the Grand Prize of Bahrain, and approved the date of introduction of engines 1.6 turbo 4-cylinder, among others. A morning busy at the firms said.
The FIA effectively approved the entry into force of these engines. In what many have not repaired is that the governing body of formula one has saved an ACE in the sleeve in order to be able to delay the introduction of these propellants in the Grand Circus. They probably wanted to go on insurance and save the expense in the event of discrepancies. We know that Ferrari is not very much agree with this measure.
The official communique of the FIA World Council indicates the following:
In consultation with the parties concerned, and following the outcome of this meeting, a vote by fax of the World Council may be considered until June 30 to redefine the dates of entry into force of these technical regulations.
We must bear in mind that the parties concerned in this case include the teams and engine manufacturers. It is assumed that more than one will have something to say on the matter. Even Bernie Ecclestone has been contrary to her. In theory the deadline to make firm decision is on 30 June, but with them you never know.
As well, however the FIA did not rule out delaying the introduction of engines 1.6 turbo 4-cylinder. A detail that many not repaired in recent days, but that is there and should not be overlooked. I do not see so clear to see these propellants in 2013.

Volkswagen delayed his announcement of entry into the WRC

Many of you have asked this week spent with Volkswagen and the announcement specified for the Portugal Rally that would confirm its entry into the world of rally. Obviously is something that all we are waiting for and that us it certainly puzzled not know nothing during that day. Today come rumors that Volkswagen has delayed its announcement of entry to the Rally of Sardinia.
Curious without doubt that the Germans of the VAG group want to thus take away something of the role to Mini, while at the same rally will be the debut of the new WRC Countryman. In addition also have began to know some stuff for a project that is already picking up pace and that is very difficult to continue to keep it secret.
The first name as comes to the fore is that of the French engineer Francois-Xavier Demaison, Knower of the world of the rally in the hands of Peugeot and Citroen, and possible key man which will turn the project. Carlos Sainz also sounds to be the head of the project once finally leave his career on one side.
As for the pilots remain in place blind sticks because people like Petter Solberg names have joined lately Juho Hanninen or Nasser Al - Attiyah. We'll see if the news is finally confirmed in the next Italian rally as but the people are going to get very nervous.
