Grand Prix of Europe F1 2011: Fernando Alonso, by mistake, will be fourth

 The Spanish returned to repeat the position of the Grand Prix of Monaco and will start fourth on the grid of the European Grand Prix. A fourth position that had not committed an error in his last attempt might have served to improve his position. Fernando Alonso is also human, and has the right to do so.
The Ferrari driver had shot the second position. Only seventy-four thousandths him separating registration of Lewis Hamilton. In the final moments of the Q3 all the Favorites went out again, but only Mark Webber was going to improve his Cronus. This he clinched fourth position in the second as Lewis Hamilton or Fernando Alonso managed to beat their previous time.
The Spanish error was rush too much braking at the entrance of a curve which forced him to open the account and made him lose four tenths on his previous record in the second sector. The result was that it aborted the last lap and retired to boxes. It was mission impossible to closing that gap in the third and last sector.

The session not started badly, though with some tension. Fernando Alonso was on the lookout in the Q1 for wanting to save a set of soft tyres. The thing became larger and the play eventually went well. In the Q2 everything went as planned and with only one set of soft road was opened to the Q3.
At the end of the classification, was asked if he had made a mistake on his final attempt. The Spanish seems that he avoided answering and walked away. The strange thing is that originally gave the impression that had not understood the question, but are the repetieron and it was then when was bridged his appearance with the media. In the repetition of the retranmision that gave the impression that he had been a mistake.
In their statements to the television Fernando Alonso targets podium in the face of tomorrow. A good start will be crucial. A detail that should not be overlooked is that it will make it on the dirty side of the runway. As well stated to laSexta, that dirty part is very dirty because cars her not tread in throughout the weekend.

GP of Monaco F1 2011: session complicated for Alonso, fourth place "discreet"

The right holder is "complicated meeting for all those who expected a second stint", but there is no all in those few words. Fernando Alonso has had to stay in the fourth final place he doesn't know much or little. It is simply the best that could happen seen apparently in a qualifying session that has been enough for the misery of the accident of Czech Perez. Goodness by what we know is well physically, which is the joy of the day.
The pace of the FP3 has not been this time, saving the 1:14.4 which seemed to limit today and throughout the weekend, but the truth is that a server expected to improve those times and reach the roof of the 1:13.9 (I do not say last Bull, but that what I said after the session of free) just like Sebastian Vettel has come down from the 1:13.6 to "elucubraba" to a few hours ago.
To ultimately see that in RedBull nothing has changed and Vettel follows the front thanks to their amazing hands and care his single-seater chassis while that Fernando Alonso aspired to more and it has finally been on the verge of uploading an additional peldanito (I do not think that it would have been able with Jenson Button and Mark Webber had it difficult)(, the truth).
Described as having come with enough fuel to solve all the Q3 last Bull, I see an error (and forgive the repetition) error. It is easy to decide better things after witnessing the red flag that thwarted a return released several pilots with their second game of superblandos tires, as well as it was difficult to foresee that Sebastian Vettel would give a hack similar to the view of the free.
Without however things such as, those who were before you were able to get six or seven tenths of the Q2 and Fernando Alonso fell low tenth time (or that). Who knows if a session "standard" could have fallen those three or four tenths I thought (and I still believe) that was. What we have now is wait for the race tomorrow and actually see if the teams are to two stops or, as in the case of an angry Alguersuari, to a single.

If the Grand Prize of the India held in December, will be the fourth Grand Prix history to do so

As already said my colleague Igor, formula one officials are considering a number of changes in the calendar of the current season of formula one, which could see the Grand Prize of the India playing in December , becoming the fourth Grand Prix history in dispute in that month.
All of this, always waiting for the decision taken on 3 June (in principle) on the possible "return" of Bahrain to the 2011 calendar. Let us remember that, by major causes, not could dispute when it should play. FIA defends that June 3 is not yet too late and not penalize anyone have decided nothing until then.
Personally, perhaps I a bit "classic", but I never liked too finished the Championship in Abu Dhabi, and I like even less if it ends in India. It is possible that it is matter of getting used to, but finished a season in a new circuit is strange to me, and gives me a feeling, the least, curious.
It took me to get me when Australia ceased to be the last event of the Championship, although Suzuka was very worthy successor to such an important event (with the exceptions of Jerez in 1997 and Sepang in 2000). Later, Brazil I ended up convincing. The Interlagos circuit has an "air" that sticks to the end of the season.
It's funny, because Brazil has only been the last race four times; in 2004, 2006, 2007 and 2008. But perhaps the strength of the editions of 2006, 2007 and 2008, along with the fact that the Championship was decided there in 2009 make it a very special setting. Although to be honest, Abu Dhabi also has certain aura.
Although it is not the circuit would prefer as last of the Championship, it must be acknowledged that a race which day it starts and ends at night should be regarded as different, and that's what happens. In any case, Buddh International Circuit of India might be the first Grand Prix of formula 1 in December from East London 1963.
Therefore, interestingly, became the fourth formula one Championship which ends later in the history of the competition, led by the 1962 season, which ended on December 29 in East London, a day after the Grand Prix of South Africa of the 1963 season. Curious data, although predictable, as scheduled in 2011 that contesting 20 Grands Prix.

Renault F1 wants engines to a fourth team and Williams quere Renault engines

And again the donkey to wheat. We have two pre-season that the rumors about a possible agreement between Williams and Renault F1 cars of the team of Grove to utilize French proponents have been quite insistent. In the end everything became nothing and was Lotus Racing who got the engines of Renault F1 in 2011.
Now, when there is still a great deal to the end of the season, they recur. Perhaps in Williams realize once and for all that the Cosworth engines, hard and work to put, are far from any of his rivals. And that is a burden that today Williams cannot be allowed.
Renault F1 has admitted that Williams F1 talks are already underway, even if they come to fruition will to have the approval of the FIA since currently the regulation prevents serve as engines to more than three teams. Only focused on the manufacture of engines in formula one, the objective of Renault F1 is becoming a supplier of at least four teams. Williams completed the poker consisting of Lotus Renault, Lotus Renault Grand Prix and, of course, Red Bull.

Grand Prix of Turkey F1 2011: continues the dictatorship of Sebastian Vettel with his fourth consecutive pole

Four runs brought this 2011 season and four pole positions leads Sebastian Vettel. The German is used in each qualifying session while nobody SBI cough him. The reigning world champion has been far superior to its rivals at Istanbul Park. Vettel is cementing its title defense in the fight against the Cronus from Saturday, which is showing intractable.
Mark Webber has finished second to four tenths of his team-mate, with Nico Rosberg racing its attempt until the end of the Q3 and which served to be third. The Mercedes was pleasant to the Q3 surprise, Lewis Hamilton, who finished fourth, and Fernando Alonso, who ended fifth. The Spanish is paid to that position on the grid.
This has been the trust they had in Red Bull, to both Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber have reserved the second game of the Q3 soft tire for the race tomorrow. Ferrari have been saved that second game with only a lap in the final attempt, the so-called outlap Felipe Massa for its part did not take part in the Q3. Ferrari's strategy or problems with your car? It should not be forgotten that they had to change the engine to its 150 ? Italy Ferrari after the last session of free practice.
In the Q1 Kamui Kobayashi was linked to the fixed six that do not normally reach the Q2, the two Hispania F1 Racing Team of Narain Karthikeyan and Vitantoni Liuzzi, the couple of Virgin Racing formed by Jerome D'Ambrosio and Timo Glock and both Team Lotusboth Jarno Trulli as Heikki Kovalainen. In the case of the Japanese a problem prevented him from marking time and had to leave the session ahead of schedule.
The Q2 was, as always, more exciting than the previous round. Occasionally there is some unexpected misfortune, and this time the shock almost takes Nick Heidfeld. The German Renault almost does not happen until the Q1, but at the last minute cut managed to save the furniture in extremis; It was fought by just 24 thousandths.They were by the way, Rubens Barrichello, Adrian Sutil, Paul di Resta, Pastor Maldonado, Sergio Perez, Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari.
Tomorrow we will witness a race with one interesting range of strategies. The pilots who have chosen to reserve games of tyres with regard to the race, and of those who have chosen to secure a good place on the grid to cope with a more comfortable position booting and with fewer scares.
