Formula 1 champion Fernando Alonso
Is finishing a new season of top flight competition on wheels, and as such, is already speculating who will be crowned as champion, even long before the final round is played in Abu Dhabi circuit, where he played 25 points that can support three candidates, but one more than the rest.
The truth is that Fernando Alonso has great potential to be crowned champion of Formula January 2010 and currently has 246 points, an eight on his guard Mark Webber and this, in turn, leads him 7 points to Sebastian Vettel (ie , 15 points behind the Spanish driver)
Who ranks fourth, with negligible chances, is Lewis Hamilton , who could devote only if a miracle (or a string of mechanical failures) occur in the circuit of the heavenly metropolis.
Anyway, it seems to be crowned champion, provided that:
Achieve a tenth place or not getting points, and no more than Webber and Vettel sixth than third place. In addition, Hamilton must win the race.
Finishing ninth, Webber would have to cross the finish line in a place fifth or higher, and Vettel be third or higher.
If you cross the finish line in seventh or eighth position , Webber third and Vettel should not have to win the race.
If Spanish ends in the fifth or sixth place , none of the pilots of the Red Bull team will win the race
Coming third or fourth, will be crowned champion as long as Webber is not the winner (would be second to two points) Finally, a second or first place, would secure the championship.
The FIA declared legal the reactive system height control
The FIA has declared legal the reactive system height control that Lotus Renault team is developing to use this 2012 season. The system, though not anything particularly innovative, has attracted much intrigue in recent days after the Enstone based team to try it on tests of young drivers in Abu Dhabi.
As I reported yesterday is mechanical system and helps maintain a standard height of the car in front brakes, the front tends to lean down.
There are two articles in the technical standards that might suggest that the system was illegal, one is 3.15, which says that any system, device or procedure that uses the movement of the driver to alter the aerodynamic characteristics of the car is forbidden, but in this If the pilot does not act on the adjustment of the height of the body, which improves the aerodynamic performance and stability of the car under braking. On the second technical article that the system must meet is indicating that the suspension should be arranged so as to respond only to changes in the loads applied to the wheels, in this case one could argue its legality, and Lotus Renault had to design a system with an operating mode that the FIA has given its approval. The system is reactive braking torque, ie, directly attached to the suspension takes the braking forces causes the plunger to extend hydraulic suspension and keep the ride height. There is an active system, but the suspension reacts to braking torque, not directly to the brake circuit pressure, which would be illegal. Read the rest of this entry »
Seven reasons why Alonso will be champion
Fernando Alonso will play the Formula 1 World Championship this weekend in the GP of the UAE . Before him are the two Red Bull, the most powerful cars on the grid, but do not be afraid.
Alonso has already proven more than once that they are not invincible and there is a list of reasons why Fernando will win:
1. Is the pilot who makes fewer mistakes and the best support pressure.
2. Leads the standings with eight points ahead of Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel on 15. The only one who depends on himself.
3. If Mark Webber does not win the title race will pan it almost earned him fourth place.
4. Sebastian Vettel needs to win to keep their options and can become the great ally of Asturias. The victory of Vettel make things easier.
5. Vettel and Webber are not talking . Red Bull has pressured the German to miss if you do not have to. Are supposed to follow orders, but always you can cross the wires . Not the first time.
5. Lewis Hamilton still has a choice, very remote yes, but has warned that trying to win. If Hamilton win would be even easier for Fernando, which earned him fifth place. Lewis made the pole in 2009 in Abu Dhabi.
6. The Red Bull have had many reliability problems this season, especially with the brakes in the desert of the UAE will work to limit the high temperature . If you click again, the title will be the Spaniard.
7. The circuit Yas Marina is well suited to the Red Bull, which in 2009 were double, but this year will feature more battle Ferrari . The track has a slow industry , much like Monaco or Singapore, where the F10 was very competitive and also two long straights where Ferrari can squeeze your speed. The worst sector for Alonso is the first,of fast corners, which imposed the aerodynamics of Red Bull.
Formula 1 returns to attract sponsors
The business rolling again. And that, although the situation was not too flattering a year ago. The number of teams on the grid had grown from 10 to 12. And despite this, the advertising spending suffered its biggest decline in five years, according to Formula Money sectoral report. The economic recovery in most major world markets, and the spectacle offered by the pilots until the last race of last season have worked the miracle. The teams have billed a $ 831 million (586.5 million euros) in respect of sponsorship, 9.6% more. Fit note that this item is on average 60% of the income of a team. This ratio, of course, varies from Ferrari (the big bet of Santander to unify its brand) and Spain, which relies on the contributions of businessman Jose Ramon Carabante and Pilots. The Spanish team, incidentally, recently reached an agreement with El Corte Ingles.
The advertising landscape, in any case, it was changing as the season progresses. Ivba soon became clear that to be an open tournament, and this circumstance led to many advertisers were joining the circus as they advanced the big prizes. That was the case of the eight million dollars (5.6 million) who joined the British manufacturer Mercedes GP Autonomy software. The same investment held in the telecommunications Lotus Malaysian Maxis. Read the rest of this entry »

As usual every year, the International Federation of Automobile (FIA) offers a number of changes in regulations, technical and sports, in order to correct errors or clarify doubts from certain controversial articles, as well as boost overtaking, the great battle of Formula 1 in recent years.

Alonso, Formula 1 Champion
World champion Globus uses vibrations to win.
The vibrations , initially used by astronauts, have become a fundamental and revolutionary method even in the F1 and sports a very high level. Fernando Alonso, 2 times F1 world champion, was the first driver to have understood the fundamental importance of the vibrations to improve their performance in competition .
Globus Physio Plate is in fact the only instrument for athletic preparation that generates accelerations similar to those submitted the pilot during a Grand Prix producing specific training to the stress of competition. “Fernando once again surprised everyone, how ‘ve come to the choice of vibration and Globus Physio Plate?
Rta: “To win at the highest levels, you should always take care of every detail and choose the solutions without admitting earning less. Fabrizio Borra, my physio staff, I was convinced of the value and importance of preparing with the vibrations and we chose Physio Plate platform because I want the best. “
Fabrizio Borra, therapist for over 20 years dealing with rehabilitation sport, both in research and in application, has worked with several elite athletes, and in recent months following the full-time Spanish rider, who is this year’s McLaren team organization.
He would have asked: “Why is it important to use the vibrations in Formula 1? ”
Rta: “I started to use the vibration for several years in rehabilitation and in athletic training with the support of friends and coaches with excellent results. I thought then to use the vibrations even for F1 because Physio Plate is the only machine that can reproduce gravitational acceleration on the track is going at a speed of over 350km / h. The results are indisputable proof.”
“Fabrizio, what programs work, in particular, can do with Physio Plate?”
Rta: “With Fernando we have several programs about specific muscle strengthening , of relaxation and rest as well as stretching (stretching) of the different muscles involved in training and skills. There is, of course, now I do not want secrets, obviously reveal. “
We return to Fernando: “How do you find this method of training?
Rta: “Fantastic. I have chosen a Platform Globus even at home, in my personal gym to train even when I’m away from the track, following the custom programs that Fabrizio has prepared for me and I put into the Physio Key, a key my personal needs.
An efficient and simple to perform that has made even my family uses it, with obejtos clearly different. “
Formula 1 has to retrace his steps
As everyone knows, this year is still a walk to Michael Schumacher, who has already won his 7th world title. What you may not know all the world, is that the car in Formula 1 is too important. But it has not always been so. These years have been bad for the sport, that, in addition to the racing cars have gotten worse, decisions made by managers are not correct. And to top it off, Schumacher has been seen only with a car infinitely superior to the others, and with his teammate, by contract, could not fight for the title.
15 years ago, in 1989, McLaren won 15 of the 16 World Cup races. Only one not won at Monza, that the two pilots crashed together. But the championship was equally exciting. Why? Because both drivers wanted to win the world championship. It’s that simple. And let the fight McLaren, not Ferrari. And yet, got the constructors’ title with 199 points, and even managed to create controversy at the end of the season on the same computer. All that the two drivers, Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost were competitive and wanted to win the world title. Schumacher has never had (because he did not want) a teammate who could cast a shadow. That has been so successful harvest, which once would have gotten nowhere near. If McLaren for 15 years has been appointed to Senna and Prost as number 1 and number 2, probably the Brazilian would have gotten a lot more than those 3 titles, which, although not reach even half of those achieved by Schumacher, he are considered the best pilot ever. At the time, opponents and the attitude displayed in the track.
Moreover, the F1 today is much easier. The cars are too powerful, they have too many electronic aids, and the pilot has little presence. Should look back and re-use slick tires. Reducing the power of the cars, provided to encourage overtaking. All this, together with a qualifying session like 10 years ago, and a rivalry on the track by all the riders much greater than it is now, would get to make the sport more attractive F1 yet. Much safer and as attractive as 10 years ago.

Huge day of timed practice sessions have lived today. Especially for the premier class has left us some incredible images of skids and driving to the limit.

Word of God …
The popular and controversial former “Capo” of the Formula 1 boss Flavio Briatore said that only a “disaster” would deprive the world title of the category to the Spaniard Fernando Alonso.
“Alonso has eleven point lead, only a disaster could cause you to lose the World Cup, began by saying the former director of Renault Sport.
“Vettel is already impossible to win the World Cup as for Hamilton. The only two that can win are Alonso and Webber, “he said firmly and with conviction Briatore knows by heart the work of the Spanish pilot.
“Alonso makes a difference in these circumstances, because it makes fewer mistakes than the others. With cars being equal, have more than others, “continued the Italian experience, giving 80% chance of championship champion with Renault.
To conclude, Briatore was extremely critical of the performance of the Austrian team in the final of the championship. “Red Bull has the best car but it seems you are trying to lose the World Cup. And they’re getting, “he said.
