Naujienos, gandai...

Robert Kubica says a return to Formula 1 is now "more likely" than ever before since his serious rally crash in 2011.
"I am not thinking of returning for now,","but it is not a closed chapter for me. It is now much more likely than it was two years ago.

Ziuresim kaip jam seksis WEC. Apie F1 galima pamirsti, bet kokiam nors teste sudalyvauti - visai not bad butu.

Niekaip ir neverta cia svaigt. Elementariai ta suzalota ranka fizinio lygio, kurio reikia vairuot open-wheel, niekada nebepasieks.

Gaila Malaizijos GP :(

Kiek kitais metais etapų beliks? Kasmet vis mažiau. :(

21 nes grizta Prancuzija ir teoriskai Vokietija

Svarstoma sio savaitgalio lenktynes perkelti i sestadieni

Čia F-1 sirgaliai "svarsto" nusivylę šios dienos treniruotėmis? Niekada istorijoje nebuvo lenktynės perkeltos į šeštdienį, tai lietūs, nei urganai netrukdė, o čia kažkoks rūkas. :)

Jeigu komandu vadovai skaitosi sirgaliai, tada jo, sirgaliai svarsto

na jo del malaizijos tikrai gaila, ten gera trasa budavo ir idomios lenktynes :) idomu kodel toks sprendimas priimtas buvo, turbut bernis perdaug babkiu plese :D

sena naujiena, bet gal kazkam eilini karta paskaudes: Robert has been close to Fernando Alonso, indeed the Spanish Samurai was instrumental in enticing the Pole over to Ferrari in 2011.

Nu jo šito dar nežinojau - Spanish Samurai. OK.

Sensejus> taigi Liberty Media dabar uz vairo, jiems ir reikia padekoti kad Malaizijoe nebebus. Prie Bernio ji buvo. Ka rukai?

Nieko jis neruko - Malaizija tikriaus pasinaudojo salyga kontrakte pasitraukti. Del trasu mokesciu Liberty nieko nepakeis, kol naujos Concorde sutarties nebus

Taigi čia YZF, jam normalu nusišnekėti. O jei rimtai, tai Malaizijos tikrai trūks. Bet man atrodo, kad jie jau pernai sakė, kad trauksis po metų.

Basanozkinis Sky specialistas eilini karta isreiske savo simpatijas Alonso jau nustatydamas, kad Mercedes kitamet jis nevaziuos

Niekas nedraude LM pasiulyti geresnes salygas ir susitarti kad Malaizijoje lenktynes vyktu ir toliau. Bet jie leido viskam vykti sava eiga. O LewasNr1 niekaip neismoko mastyti, pamenam kiek jis nusisnekejo ana sezona. Graudu buvo ziureti.

draude pirmiausia pinigu kiekis. dabartinis f1 verslo modelis ant to pastatytas ir liberty neprades is savo kisenes trasu remti

When asked about the prospect of a Hamilton-Alonso pairing, however, Hamilton said in Shanghai: “It’s not going to happen.” “If you have got two kilos on either side, and then take the two kilos off and put four on, what is the point? You need the balance,” he said. keista girdet tai is zmogaus, kuriam nesvarbu kas bus jo team mate :)

Tech >>> jeigu vairuotum greičiausią bolidą rikiuotėje, ką norėtum turėti komandos draugu, Alonso, Vettelį, Maxą ar Bottą, Strolą arba Palmerį? :)

Strola :D bet bent garsiai sakyciau,kad Alonso!

imciau bota :D strolas 1 rata q gali netycia gerai nuvaziuot o po to salia jo startuot jau pavojinga :DD

Nelikus senelio reikalai idomiai juda:


The first thing in the Notebook in Melbourne was a note that said: “Paddock relaxed”. It was that noteworthy. Bernie Ecclestone has not been to Melbourne for a few years (if I recall correctly) but there was a very different atmosphere this year. Some said it was because Mr E’s sidekick Pasquale Lattuneddu was no longer about, but that seemed a little simplistic. Whatever the case, despite a few who preached doom and gloom about how nothing would ever be the same now that The Bernard had been moved on, the paddock was bubbling with enthusiasm and new ideas. People were discussing developments which would never have been talked about openly in the days of Ecclestone. It was all rather charming. Yes, this is still the honeymoon period for the F1 teams and the men from Liberty Media but, for the moment, they are living up to their name and are as welcome as a bunch of GIs riding on a Sherman. As a sign of the times, I bumped into my old mate Larry Perkins on the grid. Larry was a Grand Prix driver in the 1970s, in an Ensign and then with Brabham and the fast-fading BRM and Surtees. Larry was quick and proved it by winning the Bathurst 1000 no fewer than six times, which puts him third in the list of multiple winners behind the great Peter Brock (9), Jim “Jum” Richards (7), and equal with Mark Skaife and Craig Lowndes. The thing is that one would never meet a V8 Supercar driver on the grid in the days of Ecclestone. As far as Mr E was concerned that was akin to promoting V8s. Larry, by the way, was one of the inductees of the Australian Motor Sport Hall of Fame in the course of the weekend, along with Richards, Skaife and Vern Schuppan, another Australian F1 driver from the 1970s, who went on to win the Le Mans 24 Hours.

The word in Melbourne was that the V8s, now known only as Supercars, will be hosting a championship round at the Grand Prix next year, something which Mr E always rejected. The new management of the Formula One group has a very different approach and there have even been suggestions that they might be willing to share the billing with IndyCars…

Pascal Wehrlein will return for Sauber at the Bahrain GP this weekend

Klepsidra>> Bet Supercars lenktynes Melburne vyko ir siemet, tik tai buvo neiskaitinis etapas.

Robert Kubica has cancelled his 2017 plans to compete in the World Endurance Championship after signing a contract earlier this year. The Pole was scheduled to race with ByKolles Racing for 2017 but has since decided against the decision.

The Privateer LMP1 team faced many issues during the Prologue in Monza earlier this month, with Kubica at the wheel of the ENSO CLM P1/01 NISMO alongside Oliver Webb.

The team packed up early with only six laps under their belt and left Monza after a rear wing failure. Kubica said it was a tough choice to leave, but hopes it is not the final goodbye.

"After the Prologue, I have decided to interrupt my racing program with the ByKolles team in LMP1,” Kubica said in a statement on his Facebook page. “Therefore, I will not take part in the upcoming WEC Silverstone opening round and in the other WEC races.

“It has been a hard decision to step down and so lose the opportunity to join such a challenging and competitive championship but I hope this will not be a definitive goodbye."

There has been no confirmation on who will take Kubica's place, however former Formula 1 driver Pastor Maldonado is in the frame, as is former Rebellion Racing driver Dominik Kraihamer.

Panašu, kad Ferrari sprendimas pitint Vetteli anksčiau buvo teisingas, bet SC viską sugadino: On Lap 3, Hamilton and Vettel set similar middle sector times, but Vettel’s final sector was two seconds quicker, so it was starting to swing back towards him. Either way, if Hamilton had pitted or if he had continued and completed another lap, chances are he would have come out behind Vettel. But the Safety Car put paid to that.

Fernando Alonso will not race at Monaco this year. Alonso to race at Indy 500 with Mclaren, Honda and Andretti Autosport.

NFS >>> plius dar Vettelis į boksus važiavo per VSC, tai dar kelias sekundes išlošė, net jei ir po to važiavo ne greičiau nei Hamis.

NFS> bet kartu reiketu tureti omenyje, kad pirmas sektorius buvo slapiausias, tai neaisku, ka ten Vettelis butu parodes

Alonso gauna kompensacija is Hondos ir McLaren del sudino bolido - leidima pasivazineti Indy

Dar reiketu dadeti, kad Alonso tarp lenktyniu pastoviai deda fotkes is LA tai jau galima pradeti skleisti gandus del kitu metu

pyst: Fernando Alonso’s 2017 Indianapolis 500 programme opens the door for McLaren to contest more IndyCar events - and perhaps even a full series schedule - in the future, major shareholder Mansour Ojjeh says.

pilnu motorsport survey rezultatu nera, bet likus nedaug iki pabaigos:
Hamilton pulls away

Included in the survey is the most-popular driver vote, and with 24 hours remaining to cast votes, Hamilton leads with 20.8%, having pulled clear of Alonso on 18.7%.

Kimi Raikkonen has established himself as the most-popular Ferrari driver, and is third ahead of Sebastian Vettel, while Max Verstappen has moved past Daniel Ricciardo into fifth in the battle of the Red Bull teammates.

Interestingly, Ricciardo rockets to second in the ‘indicate your top three drivers’ question, which is led by Alonso, as Hamilton slips to fourth behind Raikkonen.

Monaco is most-popular track

In the 'ideal calendar' vote, just 4% of respondents will be delighted to learn of Turkey’s potential resurrection to the 2018 F1 schedule, while Germany polled 28.5% and France 11.2% as they prepare for their comebacks next season.

The fans’ top five favourite tracks at present are Monaco, Spa-Francorchamps, Monza, Silverstone and Interlagos, with Suzuka, Montreal, Melbourne and Austin also polling high numbers.

Klepsidra, kas dėl kitų metų ir LA? Žinom, jog jokia kita automobilių serija jam tiek pinigų nemokės. :)

svarbiausia, kad zinai, kokiu pinigu jis praso ir is ko. tai gal pasidalink ta informacija su visais

gal kas zino, ar senelio neistiko sirdies smugis po sito?

"The prospect of a grand prix taking place on the streets of London has moved a step closer following a law change allowing motorsports to take place on public roads."

Man įdomu, kur dingo tas naujas sektorių (atkarpų) žymėjimas, kur per Australijos GP rodė apie įveikiamą atstumą kas... 200 m. lyg. Nejau nepastebėjau...
