Grand Prix of Canada F1 2011: Hispania Racing F1 Team, the best of the three new teams

After the formal training of yesterday, things already painted well, but no one would have ever thought that Hispania Racing F1 Team could place their two cars ahead of the Lotus and the Virgin, in career. But this has been, both Vitantonio Liuzzi and Narain Karthikeyan have become an excellent career which has seen them come in thirteenth and fourteenth position.
In the end, the result has changed, then Narain Karthikeyan has received a drive through applied after the race, which has made him lose three positions, by having jumped a curve at a point in the race. But the speed is there. Of course, the race today was not the most normal, and the Gilles Villeneuve circuit is very special, of if same, but the result is excellent.
In fact, this result surpasses the best result obtained by the team last year in a couple of chaotic races where not many cars finished and becomes the best result in the history of the team. Today is different, because both cars have crossed the finish line ahead of its rivals, which shows us that, at least, have circuits where it can be competitive.
Now it miss to see if Hispania can confirm this improvement in the next races, qualifying in front of the Virgin, and fought with them in the races. Although, why not fight with the Lotus, also? In the end, today has been fight and win. Little I have, rather than congratulate the entire Hispania, highly competitive team throughout the weekend.

The pilots will receive three warnings before being punished

After the Grand Prize of Spain we discovered that four pilots, Mark Webber, Jenson Button, Lewis Hamilton and Jaime Alguersuari were being investigated for not respecting the yellow flags in the area where Heikki Kovalainen suffered his departure from runway. Finally, the pilots did not receive any penalty, but if they were admonished.
For the future, during the British Grand Prix could enter into force, the FIA wants to introduce a new system of warnings. Three warnings, punishment of five positions on the grid. The reprimands that be counted as a notice, include those not related to what is happening on the track. Not to attend the briefing of pilots, arriving late to the pilots press conference, or forget that you have to go through the control of weight are warnings.
That Yes, this type of more administrative sanctions only occupy one of the three warnings of the cycle. The other two will have to happen on the track. This new system would have already been discussed by the working group that the FIA has for sporting topics, although it will have to be ratified by the World Council of FIA. Entered into force, it will not retroactively and everything that has happened prior to the British Grand Prix would be removed from the "criminal" histories of the pilots.

Ferrari is marked the next three races as the deadline

They say that when things go wrong, they can always be worse. For his part in Ferrari have gone from the Grand Prize of Turkey in which things went very well, with an almost unexpected podium and ending the race to 10 seconds from the winner Vettel to a can not be worse. Spain saved the dishes in the standings but in truth the best Ferrari, Fernando Alonso, was dubbed by the winner, Sebastian Vettel. What was the pace of similar career?.
Ferrari is suffering much with the new Pirelli, more than anyone else, and if we add to this that the Ferrari 150 Italy is also away from their rivals the consequences they measured in minutes and not in seconds. Therefore, Stefano Domenicali has been clear and has admitted that the next three Grands Prix could define the future of Ferrari this season.

In June we'll see, when passing Canada, Monaco and Valencia, where we are and depending on where it is, we will decide if we can be fighting for the championship or what direction must take

Monaco, Canada, and Europe will be three large very particular Awards where aerodynamics plays a less important role and in which we will not see hard tyres. From there, with the Grand Prix of Great Britain in Silverstone, hard compounds return to scene. If at that time things are still not working. The aim should be the next season as it is no good to swim against the tide.
