Naujienos, gandai...

Taigi jau gavot velnių, kad ne toj temoj rašot.. :D Anyway, pirma kartą motoGP žiūrėjau. Kaip Pedrosa, būdamas 158cm, žemę pasiekia?

Reikejo tau pirma karta MotoGP ziureti, nu pvz. siu metu Australijos GP. Butum pamates ko nematei gyvenime. Sis etapas buvo nuobodus visumoje, apart Rossio lipimo i virsu

“For me if you check the races of Marc Marquez in the last two years you know he always tries to *** and minimum on the last lap. So the question is, why Marc Marquez never tried to *** Jorge Lorenzo and never tried to make one attempt on the last lap?” Rossi replied.

“The situation became very embarrassing for Pedrosa, because Pedrosa was far [behind] and in the last laps he recovered two-seconds, which means that is the pace of Jorge and Marquez just waited.

“And for me, he [Marquez] liked that he helped Lorenzo and after when he take off the helmet he is just saying it is not true. But for me, he knows I will look at the television and it is clear that he helped Lorenzo, for me he is happy.”

Rossi also turned his sights on Honda: “For me the position of Honda is very strange. I don't know how a manufacturer can be agreed that one of its riders make the Yamaha win and try to fight just with his team-mate [Pedrosa]. This is very strange. But sincerely I don't understand.”

Rossi nepatenkintas, kad Marquezas Valensijoje nepadejo jam iskovoti cempiono titulo. Gerai, supratom. Kas toliau? Pasigendu Pedrosos komentaru apie tai, kaip arsusis Marcas aplenke ji, nes gyne Jorge.

Rossis nepatenkintas, kad Markezas vietoj to, kad siektu maksimalaus rezultato savo komandai, specialiai vaziuoja taip, kad pakenktu kitam dalyviui, del asmeniniu priezasciu (kurios, beje, nepagristos). Visi lenktynininkai nori svariu lenktyniu, o ne purvinu zaidimu

Šią temą pritempiant prie F1, tai panašiai (žinoma ne tokiais mastais) mes SV fanai jautėmės, kai Webberis praleidinėdavo Alonso ir nepraleidinėdavo SV (pvz kaip smarkiai Markas apsunkino SV gyvenimą berods 2012 Brazilijoje, kur elgėsi visiškai priešingai nei buvo sutarta. :) Iš šių Webberio veiksmų ir gavosi tokie SV manevrai kaip 2013 Malaizija. Tokiam kontekste lyginant su MotoGP gal tau Extremezai bus lengviau suprast anuometinę mūsų savijautą :) P.S. Priešingai nei MotoGP situacijoj kai pats Lorenzo smarkiai vėlėsi į šį nešvarų žaidimą, tuomet Alonso tuo pačiu kaltinti negalėjome, Alonso tik tyliai naudojosi privalumais, ką ir turėjo daryti.

Tiesa, tuometinius Webberio veiksmus kogero išprovokavo paties SV ankstyvesni veiksmai ir pati RBR. Žodžiu šventų nėra :)

Misiulis> o tu neturi kokio nors video apie tuos nesvarius Weberio zaidimus? Nes kazkaip man atrodo jie buvo tokie nezymus, kad as jau net nepamenu...kagi ten tokio padare Weberis.

Jei nepameni, galiu primint: uzblokavo Vetteli starte, prispausdamas ji prie kairiojo trasos krasto (sienos), tuo paciu visiskai nedengdamas desniojo, kuriuo praleke abu ferrariai. Tada, kai Alonso padare neisprovokuota klada ir pirmajame posukyje isleke is trasos ir apsisuko, grizo pries pat Webberio nosi. Ispanui griztant i trasa, net Karthakyanas butu su HRT ji aplenkes vien paslipstreamines, bet Webberis kazkaip sugebejo net nepabandyt. Na ir tada gerus 2/3 rato nepraleido Sebo i prieki, nors gavo komanda Multi 12. Siaip gana juokingas pokalbis buvo, bo Webberis apsimete, kad nesuprato komandos ir kai gavo nurodyma, atsake: Multi 12? (sarkastiskai) Which button is that, mate? Which one? Oh no, I cant find it. :D
Kad ir koks as buvau piktas, Webberio poelgius bent galima suprasti ir jo poelgiai yra small potatoes palyginant su psichiatrines liginines paciento numeris 93 poelgiais. Webberis staiga nesugalvojo, zinai ka, praradau titula Japonijoje, tai nuo Korejos iki chempo galo trukdysiu Vetteliui.

Ot nieksas tas webberis, nesugebejo prisispaudes prie kaires, praplesti savo bolida iki 15metru plocio, ir uzblokuoti visa desine puse....taip ir galvojau! >-:(

“The possibility of cooperating with Red Bull remains an option but not in the context of them having an engine equivalent to what is used by Ferrari,” Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne said at the Finali Mondiali event at Mugello.

“So there is a willingness to provide services as a side project, but it cannot be the engine that Ferrari uses in the race,” he is quoted by Italian media.

Xtremez, rašė kažkas, kas prieš varžybas buvo sutarta kaip elgsis Webberis, ką jis turi blokuoti, o ko ne. Bet padarė viską priešingai. Bet čia tik Brazilija. Webberis kaip tyčia nuolat finišuodavo už Alonso. Jei Alonso antras, ok Webberis trečias, jei Alonso penktas, ok nejaugi atimti iš Fa taškų - Webberis šeštas :) Ir dar kiti sakydavo, kad komanda sodina Webberi. Jo, sodina, tam, kad finišuotų už Alonso ir SV būtų "lengviau" čempionate. Beeet, as be apie tai. Taip, suprantama, kad Webberis ne be pagrindo taivdarydavo, tiesiog šiaip prisiminiau tuos laikus, nes per šią MotoGP dramą jaučiaus taip pat, tai galvojau pasinaudosiu proga tau pasipasakot, gal kiek suprasi, kai pats dabar taip jauties :)

Gal jus apsilankykit pas ta savo 46 daktara - maziau reikes pasaku apie Webberi ir Marqueza. Webberis taip blokuodavo Vetteli 9 atvejais is 10 paskui ji vaziuodamas, kad baisu. Laukiam tu blokavimu (neskaitant to puses rato Interlagose) pavyzdziu.
Marquezas irgi panasiai vykdo Hondos plana Yamahai titula laimeti. Sapnuose.

Sorry, bet Rossi komentaras yra totalus bullshit kaip ir n kitu bandymu kazka pasakyti apie Marqueza ar Pedrosa vietoj aiskinimosi trasoje.
Geriau palaukim pokyciu komandose - kas ateis i Yamaha kaip daktaro vasalas su uzduotimi apspardyti Marqueza kaskart horizonte siam pasirodzius

Misiulis> tokio akivaizdaus blokavimo, koki dar Markezas, as is Weberio nei per kur nemaciau. Sakyciau Markas visu nepraleisdavo o Alonsa kazkiek lengviau praleisdavo ir tiek. Bet kad kazkaip ten specialiai blokuotu butent SV - nemaciau niekaip. Dar dabar prisimenu kaip jie kovojo SPA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNUvBHKciYQ

Ne, taip stipriai ir akivaizdžiai tikrai nebuvo ir nesakau to. :) Nu anyway.

nu. anyway. :D

Ducati Corse Sporting Director Paolo Ciabatti visited the media room in Valencia on Wednesday, where he told us:

“As you know Casey has been a hero for Ducati, winning many GP races and the world title in 2007. Obviously he moved to Honda and has been working with them, but still he is in the heart of all the Ducati fans and has a good relationship with many Ducati people.

“So let's see what the future brings. We know the contract with Honda expires at the end of this year and obviously if there is a chance to do something together we would love to do it. That is the only thing I can say.”

So far from a denial, but the Honda contract means there is unlikely to be anything official until January 1.

It is not thought that Stoner would consider a return to MotoGP full time, but a wild-card alongside some Ducati testing duties could be of interest...

Problema su Ducati (ir ne tik) tame kad jie prisimena tai kas buvo gerai. O gerai buvo tik viena sezona. Poto viskas pradejo prasteti, pergaliu tiek nebebuvo ir viskas baigesi. Bet prisimena vistiek tik tai kas kazkada buvo viena syki gerai del susiklosciusios situacijos.

Klepsidra>Jo, jo, dviejų ratų JIS aiškinosi trasoje: stumdamas ir kojas "netyčia" atkišdamas jis aiškinosi, prieš tai dar aiškindamas, kaip MM važiuot reikėtų artėjančiose lenktynėse. Jaunas dar MM, jaunas, nenuėjo pašnekėt po Malaizijos su JUO.

Daktaras ejo pasneketi ne tik su MM - po kazkuriu GP tariamai ejo Pedrosa mokyti kaip lenkti. Visi aplink priesai - tik vienas geras

It seems the British Lotus F1 Team is again in deep trou***. The local police has blocked both pitboxes of the team and the mechanics and engineers are not allowed to get inside or touch the equipment.

Hamilton crashed 2m Euro Pagani Zonda supercar

The car Lewis Hamilton crashed in Monaco early on Tuesday morning was his EUR 2 million, purple Pagani Zonda supercar.

That is the claim of Germany's Bild newspaper, after the triple world champion admitted a fever was not the only reason he travelled late to the scene of this weekend's Brazilian grand prix.

No one was hurt in the crash, but 30-year-old Hamilton admitted he struck a stationary car. It is believed the crash occurred just before 3.30am local time.

"He reported it to the police immediately," a Mercedes team spokesman said.

Crashed, bet minėjo, kad vos susilietė, tai anoks čia crash. :D

Renault preview:
ICE

Interlagos sits in the upper bracket for ICE difficulty. The circuit may be short, but the long, uphill pit straight takes up a considera*** percentage of the lap. The driver will be at full pedal travel for around 15secs, around 25% distance, or 20% of the overall lap time. Good acceleration is critical here as Turn 1 is an overtaking opportunity, but the engines will be straining on the edge of their power as the elevation change is just shy of 40m from the exit of Turn 12 to the braking point of Turn 1.

From the exit of Turn 2 to the entry for Turn 6 the driver is at full throttle for a further 17 secs, with just a dab on the brakes through Turn 4. The track goes downhill through the Curva del Sol, with the car gaining further momentum, but then climbs back up to the Ferradura. To maintain the speed while dealing with the change of gradient, the internals of the engine will be heavily loaded.

From Turn 7 to 12 the circuit gets very twisty, which loads and unloads the ICE in very quick sequence. Coming after such a sustained period of full throttle, it’s hard on the ICE, but difficult for engineers to find the right compromise in mappings between good top speed and effective acceleration.

Interlagos is the bumpiest permanent track of the year due to the intense weather conditions, relative lack of use and location. The large bumps can make the car temporarily ‘take off’. Even if it’s just for a second, with no load running through the wheels the engine suddenly hits the rev limiter, which puts the internal parts under huge stress.

Turbocharger

Interlagos sits 800m above sea level. Until the Mexican GP it was the highest race of the year by a long way, but now seems low by comparison to the giddy heights of Mexico City! The turbo will be spinning at a much higher speed to generate the same power as a sea level event, rotating at very close to its maximum, but having worked reliably at the 2,200m Mexican GP, Interlagos is no longer the sternest test of the year.

Monitoring the turbo is nevertheless one of the main challenges of the weekend for the engineers and after each session it will be thoroughly checked over for any mechanical wear. It will also be checked for ingested dust or sand, which can often be a problem in the gritty Sao Paulo atmosphere.

MGU-K

While the ICE and turbo are under a lot of pressure, the other parts of the PU are not too stressed at Interlagos. The MGU-K can recover energy through the short corners, notably Turn 1, 8 and 10. The hardest test for the K presents itself in qualifying. To open the fast lap you must optimize the top speed at the end of the long final straight on the out lap by using the K for additional power boost but starting too low on electrical energy for the qualifying lap can compromise the lap time.

Turn 1 is the hardest stop of the circuit as the cars arrive at over 330kph and drop to just 110kph for the entrance. The energy going through the brakes at this point is enormous and will recharge the battery ready for deployment on the straight to the ICE from Turn 2 to 4.

MGU-H

Due to the long periods of full throttle, the MGU-H has ample opportunity to recover lost exhaust energy. However, energy recovery is not necessarily critical as fuel consumption is relatively low due to the high altitude and lower air density.

“Mr Hamilton’s foot slipped on the brake and clutch pedals and his vehicle struck three parked cars,” a Monaco police spokesperson told the Telegraph.

Zinant Monako gatves, sonuose priparkuotas masinas, manau ejo i posuki ir per placiai isvaziavo, neisipaises, ir uzkabino 3 masinas :)

F1 demokratija kaip ir sito saito demokratija:
Q: You have three customer teams – are you assuming that they will all vote with you? Are they obliged to vote with you?

"Nobody is obliged to vote with anybody, it's just a matter of what you want to have in the car, and whether contractually you can have it in the car. So you can vote on stuff which is not going to be in your car, which sounds a bit strange."

Renault vykes upgrade'as (taip taip Red Bull visdar turetu dekoti uz kitus titulus):
Red Bull elected to give Ricciardo the new engine to try at Interlagos in the hope it would deliver a step forward in performance, knowing it would land him a 10-place grid penalty.

But Ricciardo revealed that he was in fact slower in a straight line during qualifying than teammate Daniil Kvyat, who was not using the upgraded engine.

Motorsport.com revealed earlier that, in a report submitted to technical directors at a meeting earlier this week, Mercedes expressed reservations about whether tyres could cope with the high aero loads being predicted for 2017.

The FIA has asked a number of outfits to work with Pirelli over the next few weeks to come up with proper simulation data so as to check the validity of the concerns.

McLaren racing director Eric Boullier is far from impressed by Mercedes' stance, however.

He has suggested that, rather than being a genuine safety worry, Mercedes' actions were more about trying to ensure the German car manufacturer did not lose its current edge when the new regulations arrive.

Kimi engine blew up before race. They changed it to older engine that's why no penalty. And then due to lack of time, radio revealed that Greenwood was trying to setup the engine via instructions to Kimi during the race itself! No wonder pace was crap.
Raikkonen is now using the V6 last seen in practice in Mexico. The team discovered a potential issue with the unit he had in qual.
Raikkonen almost ten seconds behind Vettel but told: "Sorry for all the changes, we're just trying to get this engine set up."

Details about the specification of F1's alternative engine for 2017 have emerged.

Previously, it was believed independent outfits like Ilmor or Cosworth were being invited to bid to exclusively supply a 2.2 litre twin-turbo V6, with the regulations to run parallel to the existing 1.6 litre 'power units'.

The specifications now say the new engine will be a 2.5 litre V6 or smaller, with one or two turbochargers producing "greater than" 870 horse power.

The engine will have no limits on revs, engine durability or fuel flow, freedom in the area of the exhaust and no hybrid power.

Is to isvada, kad siuolaikiniai F1 turi 900Hp ir daugiau. (sumoje). Na sita mes jau seniai zinojom, pamate 360km/h Monzoje dar praeitais metais.

When asked about the quadruple world champion and likely 2016 title challenger Sebastian Vettel, Hamilton said: "I have a lot of respect for him, but it's difficult to assess how good he really is"
"He's never been in a team with someone like Fernando Alonso, but always with people like Mark Webber, who was not on his level, and Kimi Raikkonen, who is no longer at the peak of his performance," the Briton added.
"Before my debut in 2007, I knew it would be hard to beat Fernando, but I also knew that I could do it.
"I still remember before the first race, Ron Dennis said I shouldn't be too disappointed if Alonso beats me really badly. But I knew that it wouldn't happen," added Hamilton.

Idomu, ka Liusijus apie Buttona tada galvoja. Nes Buttonas ir ji pati ir jo branguji Fernando taskais padare (aisku su FA dar nebaigti reikalai). Uztat zinome, ka Buttonas galvoja apie Lewisa, kai sis tapo 3x labiau arogantiskas: "He’s pretty quickly becoming arrogant.”

Bild newspaper said Button was referring to the fact that Hamilton reportedly claimed he is “complete” as a driver, only failing to win races when he makes mistakes.

“None of us is complete,” Button insisted. “If we had his car, we could beat him.

“He is very talented and doing a great job, but he also has weaknesses,” the 2009 world champion said.

Button said he hopes Ferrari can continue to close the gap to Hamilton’s team in 2016.

“We – formula one – need a challenger to Mercedes. That would change everything. For Hamilton too,” Button added.

sklando gandai kad liusyte pergyvena del savo buvusios meiles nikoles nes ana pradejo su tenisininku susitikinet grigoru dimitrovu, ir liuse suprato kad nicle jam kazka reiskia, tai bando susitaikyt, taigi nebuciau taip sakant nustebes kad jo suprastejus forma yra del eiliniu pergyvenimu moteru fronte :D

Lotus will become Renault in 2016, despite the supposed takeover having gone very quiet over the past few weeks following Renault's signing of a letter of intent.

That's according to chairman and team principal Gerard Lopez, who said the takeover is a "done deal" as far as he is concerned, admitting an official announcement has only been delayed by minor details which Renault are currently working out with Formula One Management.

"Whether or not Valentino felt pressure, I don't know. This may have been his last opportunity to win a title. He could still come out next year and dominate, but I've never seen him react like his before.

"Why was he suddenly worrying about riders not in the championship chase getting in the way? It's racing and that's just not the way it goes. Each man is there for himself.

"For somebody in the title hunt to expect other people not to get in the mix is the wrong perception to start with.

"As a rider if there's an opportunity to win a race, regardless of whether you're going for the championship or not, you're going to want to win."

Bandau speti, rase vienas is situ: Lorenzo, Markezas, Lorenzo atstovas, Markezo atstovas, Hondo atstovas? Siaip kvailas pasiteisinimas mol 'nu taigi nieko cia nebuvo, cia viskas ok, Markezas istiesu kovojo kiek galejo!'

Sunkiai sekasi su spejimu - rase Doohanas. Incidenta tarp Rossi ir Marquezo ivardino kaip abipuse 50/50 kalte

Casey Stoner left Honda contract and it might mean a shocking possi*** return with Ducati in 2016.
