gata, e clar, msc se va bate la titlu in 2011.

venind din partea ta, sunt convinsa ca e o ironie...

Michael Schumacher declared himself happy with the initial feeling of the Pirelli tyres after his first test of the new rubber - but warned he could not judge whether the change of tyres would improve his fortunes until he knew if the 2011 Mercedes was well-suited to the Pirellis.
Discomfort with the 2010 Bridgestones - and particularly the relative lack of front grip they offered - was cited as the biggest factor in Schumacher's underwhelming form during his comeback season. That led to suggestions that his first experience of the new-for-2011 Pirellis would be a crucial indicator of whether his return to Formula 1 with Mercedes could eventually blossom into a success, but Schumacher said it was too soon to make a definite judgement.

"They have a very different combination," he said when asked by AUTOSPORT if the Pirellis seemed more suited to his style.

"Whether [or not] you can say the front tyre is now stronger and that's going to suit my style, what is very important is how next year's car is going to suit these tyres. That's very important. But for the first step, from what we have seen here, I feel positive about the tyres."

He underlined that the adaptation to the new tyres was still at a very early stage and that fine-tuning was required on both sides. "I was quite happy with the first test. A lot of positive feedback so we can now start to do the detailed work on the car. The tyres performed reasonably consistently and were good. I'm sure they're making some small adjustments for the future, but all in all I'm quite happy," said Schumacher.

Pirelli nu vor rezolva probl lui MSC ..cel putin asta zice Brawn, dar va avea un sezon mai bun. Time will tell

2011 Ferrari F150 - in sfirsit o masina de F1 ce arata mai "uman". Mie acel "engine cover" care se unea cu aripa din spate mi s-a parut o adevarata atrocitate vizuala.

mclaren or sa inceapa cu stangul anul asta si vor trebui sa traga pana sa ajunga la nivelul decentei. oricum, asta este un sezon compromis pt ei si nu vor avea sanse sa se bata pt titlu.
stau si ma gandesc daca nu facea alonso nebunia aia in singapore 2008, cand lua si hamilton un titlu mondial?
2011 e compromis pt el si in 2012 tot vettel va pleca avand prima sansa.

sunt curios daca va semna vettel cu ferrari pt 2013.

Nu, nu va semna.

http://en.espnf1.com/redbull/motorsport/story/43200.html

e clar ca in 2015 vettel va dori sa plece la ferrari, daca la ferrari in perioada respectiva va fi atractiv sa fii pilot.

eu daca as fi fost in locul celor de la red bull, il puneam intr-un torro rosso pe riccciardo si il tineam acolo in 2011 si 2012.
webber nu cred ca va avea probleme sa termine campionatul pe 3 in 2011 deci, i s-ar putea prelungi contractul pana in 2012 inclusiv.
dupa doi ani de curse, in 2013 l-as pune pe ricciardo intr-un red bull coechiper cu vettel iar cand vettel v-a pleca, l-as angaja pe hamilton pt ca sigur vor urma niste ani destul de grei pt el la mclaren. poate in acest timp frustrarile il vor coplesi pe hamilton destul de repede daca mclaren nu va fi o masina care sa se lupte la campionat in 2012.
