Mozes li vjerovat da je cijena tog goriva (koja je bila izracunata u Svicarski franak) dostigla cak 200 CHF po litru, malo nevjerovatno ili je neka tehnicka greska u tom casopisu.?!

Gledaj, svi oni koriste gorivo od razlicitih proizvodjaca, Shell, Petronas...i svi oni rade gorivo za svoj tim, a to gorivo se ne razlikuje previse od goriva koje mi koristimo (jedna od razlika je specificna tezina). E sad, cijenu tog goriva ne znam jer to nije commercial nego se radi samo za F1.
Brawn:
"I saw Ferrari, and they had some different options. I think there are a few different solutions you can do to get the benefit from the exhaust energy. So I think you'll see a lot of different solutions before Bahrain."
Brawn said he has not seen anything on the new cars of main rivals Red Bull Racing and Ferrari that worried him too much.
"I haven't seen them properly to be honest, but I see nothing dramatic on them," he explained. "I suspect at all the top teams, you're going to see a very different car at Bahrain, because of the period between now and Bahrain.
"I think most of the teams are going to come up with their first major update before we get to Bahrain. I mean certainly that is the case with us.
"What we're focusing on at the moment is reliability, and getting the KERS system functioning, which is completely new for us as a team, but not new for a lot of our engineers.
"Then you're going to see in Barcelona and Bahrain the things I would call the real performance steps, and I think it will be the same for Ferrari and Red Bull. They will have a lot going on in preparation for Bahrain."

Izgleda da ce bit jebe s Pirelom:

Pa kopirali su F Duct od McLarena, DD od Brawna, sad ovo od Renola...to ide tako.
I taj blown pod nije poznat tako da niko ne zna koliko ce to da pomaze.
But Rosberg insisted he was very happy with the handling of the car right from the start.
"The feeling remains that I feel very comfortable in the car, which is great - straight away," Rosberg said. "And that is a nice thing to have. But then today to really push there were a few things that we need to sort out.
"All of the main systems like KERS and the main wing often were not working or we did not have them on, and that then has a big impact on lap time – and that is lap time that we will find in the next few days or weeks.
"And other than that, there were a few things like with braking with KERS that you need to learn. You need to be confident on the brakes and with the KERS coming in. It was often a bit difficult with the confidence of the braking, and it is just a matter of getting used to it."
He also admitted handling all the new systems was a real challenge.
"I learned how to handle the KERS for example with all the buttons and systems, it is very complicated for sure and it is going to take some time to get used to it.
"So that was quite a challenge today, also because we had some issues with it, so even out on track it was doing some strange things sometimes. It will be easy to sort them out for sure but today it wasn't working 100 percent."

GAZDA: “We were able to achieve a lot of valuable mileage and it was a positive day. I am pleased with that, and with how the car was behaving. Again, of course, this is not our final race car for the season but a lot of elements have already proved to be a significant step forward. I felt totally comfortable in the car immediately and noticed how much I had missed driving since November. We have a lot of work ahead of us, and this week gives us a very good idea of where we should concentrate our work. I look forward to going to Jerez now.”
Ross Brawn: “A good day’s work today with GAZDA, and we have been able to cover some significant mileage which is important for our reliability checks. We’re starting to get an insight into the car’s behaviour and its responses to various set-up changes are proving to be very consistent. After a few difficulties at the start of the test, we have finished with a strong day providing plenty of data and options to take forward to the next test in Jerez.”

Gume se jako trose.
The Pole set a fastest lap of 1m 13.144s on the second lap of a six lap run, the fastest time of the week’s test. Interestingly the tyre drop off on the following lap was 1.4 seconds.
So, rubbish.
Hehehe 'Deda' sa 110 krugova tek 9. ! Za razliku od 1. Kubice sa 15 krugova manje i 'RenoLom'!
Frende, nemas pojma.
Pogledaj koliko su mu gume trajale, 6 krugova :lolblue:
Izgleda , ali ponavljam samo izgleda, da su iz ferrarija promasili sa dizajnom za ovu godinu.
Aldo Kosta je isnsistirao na upgradeu proslogodisnje sasije, te su dizajneri u tom pravcu i otisli. Poboljsan bolid od prosle godine i to je to.
Sa druge strane strane cini se da su reno i red bul otisli u krajnost..
vidjecemo kako ce se to sve odraziti na vremena , ali po dosadasnjem toku testiranja , moze se zakljuciti da ce glavni problem bolida biti njihova pouzdanost, pa tek onda vremena.
Kao veliki problem se vec profilise i degradacija guma kod nekih timova.
Interesantno je da nijedan tim ne dominira, rano je ipak , cinise da su svi zajedno pomalo nespremni :)
AKo se stanje sa gumama, bitno ne promjeni ovo prvenstvo ce osvojiti onaj ciji bolid uspijeva da bude "najnjezniji" sa gumama. Moglo bi se desit neko iznenadjenje kao prije dvije godine sa Brawn GP, tj. da Renault ili Force India ili neko drugi uskoci iz drugog plana.
Reno uskace iz prvog plana, ne drugog :) Pola timova vec kopira njihov dizajn izduva (mozda je to i glavni razlog kasnjenja McLarena)
Nije to glavni razlog. McLaren nije znao da ce Renol imati taj sistem dok ovi nisu predstavili bolid.
I to rijesenje spulje ne daje previse...a i Benz i McLaren ce imati to.
Dalje, Force India ima dobra vremena, ali oni imaju proslogodisnji bolid sa duplim difuzorom, i McLaren takodje tako da njihova vremena se ne racunaju.
Benz ima OK vremena i ponasa se OK...GAZDA je happy i to je najbitnije sad.
MP4 26:

What are the significant visual changes to the MP4-26?
Tim: “I think there are some novel features on the car – the long wheelbase and U-shaped sidepods are probably the most obvious examples. The thinking behind that is to feed as much good-quality air as possible to the rear-lower mainplane and the floor of the car. We want to get the rear-end working as well as possible following the loss of performance caused by the banning of the double-diffuser.
“For 2011, KERS [hybrid] is now a single integrated unit that sits within the survival cell, beneath the fuel-tank. In 2009, it was housed in the sidepods. The hybrid’s cooling intake sits directly below the main rollhoop intake.
“And, once again, we’ve really pushed the car’s cooling configuration: we’ve got a second air intake on the engine cover for gearbox and hydraulic cooling.”
What have been your biggest challenges ahead of the 2011 season?
Tim: “For me, there have been two: recovering the rear downforce we lost following the banning of the double-diffuser, and fully exploiting the Pirelli tyres. The tyres only last for around 10 laps, and making them last longer is quite a challenge. So we need to look closely at how we configure the set-up and suspension to make the tyres last.”
Paddy: “Getting KERS [hybrid] back on the car was a big task. Collaborating with Mercedes GP to define the specification for Mercedes-Benz HighPerformanceEngines was very satisfying: there was great collaboration and co-operation between us. There can be lots of difficulties finding alignment between two teams, but I’m pleased with how we made it happen and very happy with the outcome.”
Tim: “The system was also more difficult to package because you’ve got to carry more fuel. That was the first challenge, but we got through that. There were a few difficult decisions concerning architecture around different aerodynamic concepts, but I think we ended up with a design layout we’re happy with.”
You’ve both stressed the team-effort that has characterised the development of this car – does the recent restructure of the technical management reflect that?
Paddy: “The restructure reflects Tim’s increased role within the engineering department, but it’s also been good to delegate the work around the next generation of senior engineers coming through in the company.
“For MP4-26, we’ve distributed the workload around five or six senior engineers in different specialist areas – and that’s a structure that will continue under Tim’s watch. I’m really proud of the depth of talent that we can draw upon at McLaren Racing, and there have been some great opportunities for some new players to contribute directly to the car at a high level.
Tim: “And it’s not just good for them; it’s good for the company and good for the end-product. I think we’re going to make better cars because we have wider access to the horsepower available within the design system. They’re all good guys and all have good ideas – it’s a cliché, but car design really is a team effort these days.”
What are your immediate aspirations as you roll out MP4-26?
Tim: We set ourselves a very ambitious aerodynamic target for 2011. We always want to do more and we’re always very critical about performance, but we feel we’ve done a good job. We’ve identified some areas where we can add performance to the car – over the next weeks, the task will be to get them on to the car and reliable by the first race. That’s the big challenge.”
KAKO SU RUZNI OVI SIDEPODOVIIIII....
Mislio sam vise u smislu da mozda zele da sacekaju sta konkurencija sprema, i da pokusaju to da inkorporiraju za prvo testiranje. Vidjecemo :)
Sto se tice ruznih sidepodova, ja sam u F1 uvijek bio pristalica da auto treba da je brzo, a ne lijepo, 'ebe mi se kakvi su, ako doprinose performansama :)
Pa te lijepe stvari su uvijek bile i promasaj.
Sjecas li se Williamsa i njihovog prelijepog nosa?
meni je taj nos isto pao na pamet dok sam pisao post, ali ne bas kao primjer lijepe stvari, vec nasuprot. Tako ti je to kad su dali zeni da ga dizajnira :)
Kad smo kod nosa, evo Toyote za 2010 godinu koja nije nastupala:

Onda, nos W02:
http://www.jamesallenonf1.com/wp-con...icture-693.png
I bas se pitam zasto?
Pa zato sto Benz je, isto kao i Ferrari, koristio tunel Toyote.
A evo sto kaze Scarbs u vezi L sidepodova:
http://scarbsf1.wordpress.com/2011/0...aped-sidepods/
Samo neka voze sto vise pa da vidimo rezultate, radi uporedbe.
Pravu brzinu cemo gledat tek u Bahrain.
jedva cekam da vidim taj krkljanac...
