Naujienos, gandai...

ecOr> nesvaik, kuro grazinimas nepakeis absoliuciai nieko. Jau tas buvo viena karta padaryta ir nieko tai nepadejo. Geriausia strategija yra viena, todel visi stos tame paciame rate (arba sekanciame) ir viskas. Kura uzdraude del strategijos, kad butu intrigos nes su kuru buvo nuobodu. Bet jus jau pamirsot visa tai. Jeigu vel leis - niekas nepasikeis.

Sutinku, man tik nepatinka, kad starte bolidai sveria +100kg, kai galėtų ~35-40kg + būtų intriga, kai užstringa žarna ar pan. Dabar ne tik lenkimai padirbti, bet net ir tokios mažos smulkmenos užmirštos. Jokios dramos.

Graziano Rossi, himself a former international motorcycle racing star, told the Italian press that his now 37-year-old Italian son's multiple tests for Ferrari last decade were extremely serious.

"Valentino was very, very close to being a formula one driver," he said.

"The only thing compara*** to MotoGP is F1; anything else would have been a step backwards. But he didn't do it because his love for MotoGP was too big."

Dennis'a ir visa jo kompanija praspyre..

McLaren are set to part company with their new Formula 1 boss Jost Capito less than four months after the German joined the company.

The 58-year-old started in his role as chief executive officer of McLaren Racing in September, having been recruited by chairman Ron Dennis.

But Dennis is on gardening leave pending the end of his deal next month.

And Capito, too is now on his way out, having been viewed as Dennis's man, BBC Sport has learned.

In a separate development, long-time McLaren marketing chief Ekrem Sami has had his position as a director of the McLaren Group terminated.

Sami, 62, has been a long-time close ally of Dennis, for whom he has worked for nearly 40 years.

Ferrari has become the first Formula 1 team to set a launch date for its 2017 challenger, confirming to GPUpdate.net tath it will be presented on February 24.

Official Giovinazzi to be Ferrari’s third driver

dang, http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/127537/symonds-parts-company-with-williams

seniai sklande gandai, kad Symondsas nori retirinti, bet ziuresim, ar neatsidurs kazkur kitur. Lowe sprendimas still daugiau nei keistas bus, nors sakoma, kad jis nori kilti aukstyn ir gauti daugiau valdzios

"Symonds' Renault career was marred by his involvement in the 2008 Singapore GP crash scandal....This ban was later overturned, with Symonds receiving compensation and permission from the FIA to return to a full-time role in the sport." - pala pala, kazkaip cia idomiai...tipo FIA panaikino jam bauda ir dar kompensacija sumokejo? Tyliai, kad niekas per daug nekalbetu? O kodel kompensacija? Tai kiba nelabai ir kaltas buvo? Ar visas skandalas buvo ispustas is FIA puses?

Kaip ir viskas aišku ;/

O tai ko Jus tikejotes? Kad AF1 eilini syki pataikys su Werleinu? Nu nebuna taip, nebuna. Cia kaip Tech, amzinai linkes pralosti lazybas :))

YZF> kompensacija, kiek pamenu, buvo uz neteisingai paskirta bausme - Flavio irgi panasia gavo, bet suma lygtais minimali

Idomi James Allen nuomone del Ricciardo:
Carlos Sainz appeals to both Ferrari and Renault and he’ll almost certainly drive one of their cars in 2018 if a place doesn’t come up at the top ta*** with Red Bull.
I’d put reasona*** money on Daniel Ricciardo pairing up with McLaren in the next couple of years if life with Max Verstappen becomes unsustaina*** at Red Bull.

Deal agreed for Felipe Massa's F1 return at Williams - paving the way for Valtteri Bottas to move to Mercedes.
http://www.skysports.com/f1/news/12433/10703494/terms-agreed-for-felipe-massas-return-to-williams-say-sky-sources

The report also indicated Mercedes made unsuccessful approaches to McLaren for Fernando Alonso and Renault for Nico Hulkenberg.

Terms agreed for Felipe Massa's return to Williams, say Sky sources but deal will be ripped up if Bottas doesn't move to Mercedes

YZF, siemet balansas mano pusej gavosi,taip kad nestumk :D

Ron Dennis did not give the F1 is among the potential buyers of the Manor!

After being shown the door by "his" McLaren, Dennis would be at the head of a consortium of Chinese lenders interested in entering the Circus. The alternative is Ricardo Gelael, Indonesian entrepreneur KFC group.

The Force India F1 team has secured a sponsorship deal with Johnnie Walker, which will also be sponsoring McLaren next year

Kad Dennisas pirktu Manor, imho, yra daugiau nei sapnas. Pirmiausia jis tebeturi McLaren, kuria pats "sukure", akcijas - kam jam pirkti kazkokius atsilikelius ir pradeti viska nuo 0? Plius metu jam ne 40 jau. Mol cia tie patys kinieciai, kurie norejo investuoti i McLaren ir dabar investuos kur "pigiau". Priminsiu, kad Manor yra perkama jau antri metai tik pirkejo nematyti, nors jau buvo skelbta, kad amerikonas kazkoks garantuotai ima.

I think people will be surprised by Bottas. His average qualifying times over his teammates were as follows:

2013: -0.348 (Maldonado)
2014: -0.401 (Massa)
2015: -0.436 (Massa)
2016: -0.285 (Massa)

Although none of these drivers are at Hamilton levels, this is quite consistent and I think once he's up to speed he will give Hamilton a run for his money in qualifying. And he should be a*** to keep pace in racing, as well.

Na dėl Rono, nenustebčiau.Žmogus tai darė paskutinius 40 metų, ir nemanau, kad nuo dabar pradės žirgus augint..Gal tie kinai jau buvo paruošti McLarenams, bet paprasčiausiai nespėjo, taip kad tikrai nenustebčiau, jei jis grįžtų į F1

Idomus skaitinys

Brawno filosofija labai teisinga.

Jis toks totally anti-Marchionne, nes anam tai it deglas subinej, visko reikia dabar ir iskart.

Dar viena idomi vieta:

"I think you waste resource if you run parallel programmes where you then try to decide at the end what is best. You might decide to pursue a couple of different ideas to see what proves to be the best solution, but I would expect those teams to work collectively on those ideas."

Honda dare savo paralelines programas, ir nieko jos ten is esmes nepadejo...kaip sakoma, vieni zino ka ir kaip daryti, o kiti ne.

Dėl to Brawnas ir negrįžta :D Mercedes ir be jo dominuoja, Red Bull patys suktis sugeba, visi kiti - nesupranta, kaip dirbti.

Ar tikrai Honda dare paralelines programas? Pats Brawnas juk tam dirigavo. Is Mercedes is esmes isejo del Laudos ir Wolffo, nu ir dar del Bernie kazkiek.

Visi kiti (neskaitant Ferrari gal ir McLaren) neturi resursu dirbti taip kaip Brawnas siulo

Meanwhile a number of reports in Germany are suggesting that Hamilton is keen to keep Wehrlein out of the pit garage beside him next year, as he is wary of Wehrlein’s pace and the fact that no other driver has completed more mileage on the 2017 Pirelli tyre than the German.

This contradicts Hamilton’s opinion which he made clear when he said, “They can put any driver they want – bring Sebastian, Fernando, bring whoever you really want. I drove against Fernando in my first year and beat him, so that’s not a worry for me.”

“I am happy to drive against any of them. But in terms of what is best for the team, probably not the best ideas,” he added.

Apparently that’s now changed to “put any driver they want except Wehrlein” and clearly Bottas is favoured because of his experience and temperament, which will not rock the boat. He is a known quantity, now only time will tell if he actually gets the drive and then if he can match Hamilton on track.

With Wehrlein apparently marginalised, its becoming increasing likely that Williams will release Valtteri Bottas (for a hefty barter fee) allowing him to join Mercedes.

Honda kure lyg ir trys (vienu metu) vaziuokles versijas 2008-ais. Kuom tai baigesi, matem 2009-ais.

As irgi sita versija tikejau iki Brawno knygos, bet paskaicius knyga kazkaip nesueina galai, kad Brawnas pats vadovaudamas taip dare ir sako, kad taip daryti negerai. Tai bent jau as darau prielaida, kad gal dirbo prie keliu skirtingu elementu versiju, nei kad prie totaliai triju bolidu.

Reportai apie Werhleina, imho, kolkas geriausias tarpsezonio bullshitas. Mol toks greitas ir taip gerai Pirellius ismano, bet jo nereikia nei Mercedes, nei Force India, nei Sauber labai verzesi? c'mon... Cia panasu, kad Hamiltonas pasake kazka ir kas kaip norejo, taip suinterpretavo.

Dėl Hondos, tai ar ne be Browno jie kūrė tą bolidą? Juk Brownas tik tą sezoną nusipirko komandą, kai jau visa programa vykdoma buvo. Ar aš kažką maišau?

Aš Vytautas > Ne, 2009 BrawnGP buvo pirmas pilnai su Brawn kontrole sukurtas bolidas į kurį apie 1 mlrd. dolerių sumerkta buvo. Brawn atėjo 2008 metų sezonui į Honda.

Klepsidra> taigi pats rasei, jau pamirsai? short memory. Honda su Mclarenais gi turejo 'slapta antra komanda kuri lygiagreciai dirbo ties kitokio principo variklio projektu ir siu metu pradzioje, pries sezona, turejo buti nuspresta kuri varianta pasirinkti'. Faktas kad sitas Brauno teiginys buvo atsakymas i klausima susijusi su tuom.

AF1, Klepsidra > Gi buvo dar Super Aguri - de facto Honda antra komanda. Brawn dar vienam interviu paneigė, kad apipučiamas difuzorius buvo Super Aguri inžinieriaus idėją, kurią perėmė motininė Honda komanda. Tai reiškias bendradarbiavo jie ten kažkuriam lygmeny. Ir kiek aš suprantu, tai Honda F1 komanda ir Honda F1 projektas nėra tas pats, jie komandą turėjo kaip tokią, kuriai vadovavo Brawn, ir kartu visą F1 programą, kuriai ne Brawn vadovavo. O ką Brawn knygoj šneka, ir kaip viskas buvo, tai čia nebūtinai viskas turi sutapt. Knygoj yra Brawn įvykių versija, aklai ja remtis nereikėtų.

pirma karta girdziu, kad Super Aguri buvo susijusi su Honda.

YZF> kalba eina apie motora ir darba kitam sezonui

"Every teammate I met after Hamilton it was the same question," he smiles when asked by Motorsport

"When I joined Renault, the following year, it was Piquet. So they said, 'GP2 frontrunner, a young guy, so it will be the same as Hamilton.' It was not. Then it was Grosjean. They said, 'GP2 frontrunner, in 2009 Grosjean will be very fast.' He was not fast.

"Same with Felipe. 'Be careful, because in Ferrari, many years for Felipe, he's used to the team, he will be very fast.' He was not fast.

"Then it was Kimi, they were saying, 'A world champion is coming back to Ferrari, he's very, very fast.' He was not fast.

"Let's see how is Stoffel. I am not worried, we are not at the moment in a title position, or a title contender, so that we need to fight.

smagus Alonso interviu :D

:D kažkaip nebūdinga Alonso tokie išsireiškimai. :D

New owners Liberty Media are considering scratching Fridays from the F1 race weekend.

Gera dokumentika atsirado, vadinasi: F1. How it was.
Highly recommended.
