Grand Prix of Europe F1 2011: Sebastian Vettel prepares the ground for the classification

Third session of free practice and preparation of Sebastian Vettel in the face of the qualifying session will be held at 14: 00. The German has managed the fastest time this morning with traffic in the Middle, followed that of Fernando Alonso at some four tenths and Felipe Massa little less than half a second behind.
Mark Webber has been the fourth ranked ahead of Jenson Button, Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton, both fairly distant McLaren of the head at least as to the achieved times at this meeting. I'm surprised this performance "slack" of the two McLarens, above all and time by Lewis Hamilton. I am sure that classification they will teach us another face, but things have been so at the third session.

We have the table of times below, but the truth is that we lack laps by driver from average table data. Anyway see how track conditions are better now, interesting with 26 ° C, 35 ?c runway and 59% of relative humidity. All pilots have focused on the setup of classification, and that is why I just do not believe the performance of the McLaren.
It seems that this time it may be possible to do front row grid to Fernando Alonso (even Felipe Massa, who is not so far). What is also clear is that there are two barbecues: the top 10 and the rest, as in the first "half" have exactly to the five main teams. RedBull, Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes GP and Renault. Difficult situation of Toro Rosso but especially Jaime Alguersuari it is quite complicated in the face of the classification and to highlight the twelfth position of Sergio Perez which shows once again be able to make good racing. In a couple of hours we will leave doubts.

After a change of last minute which allowed the TT to participate along with Rallye cars to increase the list of participants who had been recently affected by the lack of interest for the Championship, now up to the calendar be changed.
Environmental restrictions forced the Organization to postpone the test they had planned for June 11, which is why the Baja Spain-Aragon, to be held from 23 to July 24, becomes the next round of the Championship, the second of the year.

Mercedes Grand Prix eager to regain lost ground in Australia in Malaysia

Michael Schumacher said that Mercedes Grand Prix are eager to recover the ground lost in Australia in Malaysia. After a week-end disastrous for the German team, in which none of their drivers finished the race, tempers have not broken down.
The seven times world champion explains that the entire team has taken what has happened in Australia as a challenge to face. It will have to work hard to regain the points lost in that race, and the goal is still to fight for important things.
Nico Rosberg defends the possibilities of Mercedes Grand Prix, confident that the car can be very fast and strive to obtain good results, despite what was seen in the first race of the season, in the circuit of Melbourne.
I think that next Sunday we could surprise people. We know that the car is fast, from the latest tests in Barcelona, so now we must work to demonstrate that potential.
