Nico Rosberg won Australian Grand Prix:D:D

      Sunday’s race was full of emotions, and also had unexpected moments such as Ferrari’s amazing start, Fernando Alonso’s crash, red flag, battle between Toro Rosso drivers, and even on podium drivers was interviewed by Mark Webber, that was unexpected, Sebastian Vettel’s expression when he saw Mark wearing suit with microphone on his hand was great, unforgettable.

Race began with incredible start Ferrari drivers, Sebastian Vettel from third pole, overtook Nico and Lewis with incredible style and took the lead, then Kimi Raikkonen did the same and was on the second place, people in Ferrari garage was cheering, because that was a great thing, actually Sebastian Vettel had the same very good start in previous Australian Grand Prix, then lap by lap Sebastian had more and more time advantage, until something terrible was happened among other things Fernando Alonso crash which was dramatic. Everything happened when Fernando overran Eseban Gutierres back tyre then Alonso’s car was circled in the air many times, losing debris around. Fortunatelly Fernando on his strength get off his car and it was everything OK with him:).

Crash caused red flag, and every driver had to went back into the pit, Sebastian lost all his time advantage, not only Sebastian also other drivers, so after restart everything could happen, and happened after some laps when safety car in, Kimi Raikkonen had a huge issue with his car when Kimi was in pitlane fire appeared above his helmet, luckily mechanic put out the fire, and after that Kimi retired.

      

      On 38 lap started battle between Toro Rosso drivers behind Jolyon Palmer who was on ninth position, Carlos Sainz was on tenth and Max Verstappen was on eleventh. Time difference between three drivers was very little less than 1 second. Max Verstappen wanted to overtook Jolyon, however he could not because of Carlos then he said to…I think that it was his engineer: “can I try to get fast”, engineer accepted, after that Max tried to overtake Carlos but he could not, he was very irritated, and Carlos was under the pression, we knew  that when his racing engineer said to him to push  he answered: “ I am pushing, I am pushing”, and his voice was upset. After some laps Carlos overtook Jolyon, Max did the same, and they stuck behind Valtteri Bottas, so Max was on his radio message very furious, nervous, but it has not change anything he finished the race behind Carlos, but on point position:):).

      

      Because of pit stops and strategy Nico Rosberg took the lead, Lewis was on the second position and behind him with less time difference was Sebastian, he was very close to Lewis until gone deep in to the corner, and he lost some time, but he was still on the third position, and he finished the race on podium. Nico Rosberg won, Lewis was second and Sebastian was third. Australian driver, optimistic driver in all Formula One Daniel Ricciardo was fourth:).

Pole position for Lewis Hamilton :):):)

      Qualification for Australian Grand Prix has finished. Lewis Hamilton Had the best time, and tomorrow  he will start on pole position, next to him will be Nico Rosberg, and on the third pole will be Sebastian Vettel, without surprises, however Ferrari is very close to Mercedes.

       Starting from this season…..qualification looks a little bit different, because drivers are eliminate not when session is over just during the session. Q1 is sixteen minutes long and after seven minutes they start eliminate driver who has the worst time one by one every 90 seconds. Today in cloudy Saturday, Pascal Wehrlein from Manor was the first eliminate driver, after 90 seconds his teammate                                        Rio Haryanto was also eliminated.                                       

    Then it was a time for Haas drivers Esteban Gutierrez and Romain Grosjean. Suddenly  on the screen appeared Danill Kvyat out of his car in pit lane. 

After that it was a fight between Jolyon Palmer and Marcuss Ericsson. Jolyon was very determined to promote for Q2, and he did it:).

                                                                           

In Q2 there is fifteen minutes like it was in previous season, but after six minutes the slowest driver is eliminate, today first (in Q2) was Kevin Magnussen then Jolyon Palmer, both drivers from Renault. After that Jenson Button having some time to improve his time:D prefered to drive to pitlane and finished qualification then the same did Alonso also from Mclaren. Nico Hulkenberg and Valtteri Bottas were eliminated . the last eliminate driver was Sergio Perez who did the same thing what Jenson and Fernando did.

                                                       

Finally it was a Q3 were we found out who is going to have the best time and be on pole position. So drivers has fourteen minutes, after five minutes the slowest driver is eliminated, once again every ninety seconds the next slowest driver will be knock out. Just two cars left on the truck battling in out to take pole position, but in this Q3 it was a little bit different because before the time has finished, four  the fastest driver drove in to the pit lane and we found out who took pole:):).

Favourite Australian Grand Prix

      I remember it was 2007 when I found out what kind of sport Formula One is, because I did not know  until I saw an article about Polish driver Robert Kubica who had an issue with his car, then I thought OK, but where is his car ???. Is that a very weird machine over there which did not resemble a racing car??, but I was fascinating, then I started looking for some information about other drivers, teams, and of course racing where and when I can watch it, and luckily I saw that first race of the season is in a couple days on available channel. I was couriers how all that Formula 1 race look like and started counting days until Australian Grand Prix.

     

      Race started at early morning in Poland, but in sunny Melbourne it was after midday, When I am watching this after nine years I cannot believe how Formula One has changed different pit stops, engines, scores, teams , also drivers there were lots of drivers who are not driving now, for Lewis Hamilton It was a first race in Formula One, his father was with him in every single race, from the beginning Lewis was very talented also he was racing in very competitive team like Mclaren with his teammate Fernando Alonso champion from previous season. In 2007 Robert Kubica was also racing. I was cheering him on. During the race he was at fourth very high position, but then He had an issue with his car and unfortunately he retired. English commentators had a lots of problem how they should say Robert’s  last name “Kubika” or “Kubica”. One of them said that “Kubika” sounds faster:)

 In 2007 pit stops looked a little bit different, because of the refueling which took so much time that the most important was a good pit stop strategy, and during the race drivers were two times in pit. Also there was a different score. Driver who won Grand Prix scored only ten points not twenty five like today.

      Australian Grand Prix won new Ferrari driver who replaced F1 legend Michael Schumacher, I am writing about Kimi Raikkonen. Then he did not know that he became a champion for 2007, Fernando Alonso was second, and Lewis Hamilton rookie driver was third that was a fantastic result for him on his first race, amazing and now in 2016 he is a three times champion. That is incredible.

When I watched that race in 2007, Formula One race for the first time I was so excited, fascinating and full of best emotions that F1 became my passion, so my favourite Australian Grand Prix is from 2007.

      Below I would like to show you a video of most memorable moments from that race:):)

Thank you and see you next post:):)

Winter testing in Formula One part 2.

      Last winter testing has finished on Friday last week. It was a fantastic feeling to watch again (before Australian Grand Prix) all these atmosphere and heard sounds from the engine. From that part of testing Sauber has a new car, however they had a technical issues, not only Sauber because Romain Grosjean car had also issue with breaking system, Jolyon Palmer during last three days made less than two hundred laps which is not a good result.

      From second part of testing Ferrari drivers had best lap times, so it is possible that in this season they can fight with Mercedes for Championship. Ferrari drivers were testing a head protection which was a lot of discuss, drivers had a different opinion about it some drivers say that it will be too safe, furthermore it looks awful, however for other driver safety is the most important so they agree.

 It is only 7 days to go:). I would like to show you my mixture video of testing part 2:):), enjoy:):).

Thank you for reading and watching, see you next post:):):)
