Formula Renault 3.5 Hungaroring 2011: Jean-Eric Vergné completes a perfect weekend


What second race of the Formula Renault 3.5 at Hungaroring , which we saw yesterday! Jean-Eric Vergne won again, completing a perfect weekend. If race saw the French to reduce distances to Robert Wickens, the second has seen him become leader of the general. The podium it completed Albert Costa and Adam Carroll, with good runs.
But not only good careers led them to the podium, and Sergio Canamasas as Robert Wickens, who finished in second and third position respectively, received two penalties in the final result, because their teams loose them boxes at a time considered to be dangerous. A penalty for Sergio, although that would contribute to the success of coast.
The history of the race saw a Sergio Canamasas losing the lead for a successful Vergne, trying to escape from the Spanish. Did not succeed until the arrival of the pit stops, that he gave a small advantage to the Red Bull driver. Albert Costa said that him, for this seems a reward by the penalty received in Monaco, and will offset more than.
Adam Carroll, for its part, has increased his pace when he reported the criminalization Canamasas and Wickens, and he earned the podium by just one-tenth. Had it not been so, we have seen two Spanish pilots on the podium of the Hungarian circuit, although the fourth position of Sergio, along with the third yesterday, he raises until the 11th position of the general.
In addition, nobody can escape that their results have been with a lower car and less media, so in the paddock of the Championship him begins to see as a kind of revelation of the season, above all, being ahead of his teammate in the interim classification of the Championship, which was his main objective at the start of season.
The following quote from the Championship will be in many weeks, the weekend of 19, 20 and 21 August, at Silverstone. With two-thirds of the Championship already disputed, there are just quotes from Silverstone, Paul Ricard and Montmelo. Well sure Jean-Eric Vergne and Robert Wickens, colleagues in the Carlin team, fight for victory, and we hope that our pilots continue to improve.

Canada F1 2011 Grand Prix: Pedro Martínez de la Rosa leaves the FP2 and could play the rest of weekend


At the moment there is very little information, but while writing this article, Pedro de la Rosa is prepared for the second session of free, practice and could play the rest of the weekend. Sergio Perez was found badly after the first session of free practice and the Sauber team has resorted to Pedro de la Rosa.
The third driver of Sauber is, officially, Esteban Gutierrez, but probably his little experience in cars more powerful has been a key factor, especially in contrast to the experience of Peter in the Sauber for 2010, which will be relatively similar to 2011, as well as his experience with Pirelli tires. In any case, a press release that we take by surprise.
What is clear is, precisely, that there is far from clear. Remains to be seen if Sergio Perez is well morning and you can exit or if, on the other hand, it is not seen with forces to follow. For the moment, from Sauber said that, in principle, Pedro de la Rosa would take part in the weekend, although it can not confirm 100% of time. Keep you informed.
I guess that it would be foolish to comment irony posed by Pedro de la Rosa to help Sauber in this situation, after as it was fired last year. But precisely situations so say a lot of Peter and, of course, their desire to run in formula one, in addition to the good faith of McLaren, that lets you compete with another team.
ACTUALZACION: Confirmed that Pedro de la Rosa will be competing throughout the weekend.

The 2011 of the GP2 season begins this weekend at Turkey



The 2011 of the GP2 season begins this weekend in Turkey, at Istanbul Park, and many pilots who can fight for the title. Among the ART and DAMS, the Jules Bianchi, Romain Grosjean and Esteban Gutierrez, are the Spanish teams, Racing Engineering and Barwa Addax, and Dani Clos, that runs with the first of the two. In addition, this year, we have the debut of two new teams in the category, Carlin and Team AirAsia.
Pastor Maldonado, the defending champion of the GP2, given your particular bet, and this is nothing more and nothing less than Jules Bianchi. According to the Venezuelan ART pilot is who has more chances to win. Even more than the theoretical favorite, Romain Grosjean, who has already won the GP2 Asia Series were contested at the beginning of this year.
In any case, we will begin to emerge from doubts on Saturday and Sunday, or even today, with qualifying training. Anyway, interesting things to mention as any, and for example in Super Nova, there is no second official pilot. We are sure that they will have someone to drive that car, but we still do not know, in the absence of a single day.
The same week also begins the GP3, this year without the presence of Spanish pilots. Among the Favorites, we have to Valtteri Bottas, Alexander Sims or Andrea Caldarelli, as well as many more. The GP3 is, by nature, a category of surprises, so there is little to say until we see what happens after the first weekend. We will be waiting with desire.

Robert Merhi and Dani Juncadella well begin the weekend in Hockenheim


Roberto Merhi as Dani Juncadella have started strong weekend in Hockenheim. Spanish formula 3 Euro Series drivers have achieved good results in the two sessions of classification. In the first and second sessions, Merhi was the first and second, respectively, while Juncadella was formed with the second and third place.
In the first fight against the Cronus Roberto Merhi beat Dani Juncadella for just over three tenths. In the second session of qualifying under Wittman surprised both Spanish marked the fastest time, gain the upper hand by less than one-tenth to Merhi and more than three to Juncadella.
In this way Merhi and Juncadella will be in a position that is unbeatable in the grid to tackle both races, both of the Sabbath on Sunday. The aim of both is that to fight for the victory at the Hockenheim circuit.
