Result 2nd practice session :

Vettel edges out Alonso in second Friday practice
Sebastian Vettel narrowly edged out home favourite Fernando Alonso to set the fastest time in second free practice for the Spanish Grand Prix. Just 0.083 seconds covered the top three at Barcelona, as Alonso's Ferrari split the Red Bulls of Vettel and Mark Webber. After an early all-Mercedes battle for the top spot, it was Alonso and the Red Bulls that dominated the lead order through the low-fuel runs.
Webber kicked off the dice with a 1m23.112s after 22 minutes, but was deposed by Alonso on a 1m23.030s five minutes later. When they switched to the softer medium tyres shortly afterwards, Webber reclaimed first place by 0.2s over Alonso, before Vettel jumped ahead of them both. Alonso's retaliation managed to get him back in front of Webber, but Vettel remained just out of reach. Kimi Raikkonen's Lotus and Felipe Massa's Ferrari completed the top five. Lewis Hamilton spun his Mercedes at Turn 11 during the early runs, swiftly rejoining without problems and ultimately taking sixth ahead of team-mate Nico Rosberg.
Tyre wear was again high and there was a scare at Force India when Paul di Resta's left rear delaminated on the main straight, forcing the Scot to park on the grass. He was still 10th quickest, two places behind team-mate Adrian Sutil. Jean-Eric Vergne split them, in a strong performance for Toro Rosso, which also had Daniel Ricciardo in 11th. McLaren was only 12th and 13th with Jenson Button and Sergio Perez as it began to evaluate its major upgrade package, including a new front wing.

1. Sebastian Vettel : Red Bull Racing 1:22.808
2. Fernando Alonso : Ferrari - 1:22.825 + 0.017
3. Mark Webber : Red Bull Racing - 1:22.891 + 0.083

6. Lewis Hamilton : Mercedes GP - 1:23.140 + 0.332
7. Nico Rosberg : Mercedes GP - 1:23.398 + 0.590
8. Adrian Sutil : Force India - 1:23.840 + 1.032
9. Jean-Eric Vergne : Toro Rosso - 1:24.058 + 1.250
10. Paul di Resta : Force India - 1:24.104 + 1.296
11. Daniel Ricciardo : Toro Rosso - 1:24.175 + 1.367
12. Jenson Button : McLaren - 1:24.306 + 1.498
13. Sergio Perez : McLaren - 1:24.854 + 2.046

18. Romain Grosjean : Lotus - 1:25.851 + 3.043
19. Giedo van der Garde : Caterham - 1:25.963 + 3.155
20. Jules Bianchi : Marussia F1 Team - 1:26.078 + 3.270

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

Result of the 1st practice session :

Fernando Alonso leads damp first practice :
Fernando Alonso grabbed the fastest time in a Ferrari one-two as wet weather frustrated the Formula 1 field's attempts to get an early understanding of the Spanish Grand Prix upgrade packages in opening practice at Barcelona. It was only coming into the final quarter of an hour that slicks were viable, and even then there were sufficient slippery patches to limit the relevance of the laps that drivers managed.
But with so many developments to try, teams were less reticent about coming out early than is often the case in wet sessions. The Spanish crowd therefore had a decent amount of track activity to enjoy all morning, and would also have appreciated seeing home hero Alonso on time of the times for much of the session.
Alonso spent a while as the fastest man during the wet running, though he tumbled down the order as conditions improved. Going into the closing seconds, his Ferrari team-mate Felipe Massa was the latest to burst to the top of a constantly fluctuating timing screen as everyone got up to speed on slicks.
But Alonso finished the morning with a flourish, setting a 1m25.252s lap to beat his team-mate by 0.203 seconds. Toro Rosso's Jean-Eric Vergne had starred by being the first man to get slicks to work, and he remained consistently up front for the rest of the session, ending up third.
Romain Grosjean had an early spin into the hairpin at the end of the back straight, before finishing the session fourth for Lotus. Adrian Sutil's Force India, Lewis Hamilton's McLaren and Valtteri Bottas's Williams were next up in an inevitably shuffled order, with Kimi Raikkonen, Nico Rosberg and Paul di Resta completing the top 10.
Jenson Button was the only driver not to attempt a flying lap, though he did six exploratory tours in the updated McLaren. Red Bull also hung back when the track dried, with Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber at the foot of the top 20.

1. Fernando Alonso : Ferrari - 1:25.252
2. Felipe Massa : Ferrari - 1:25.455 + 0.203
3. Jean-Eric Vergne : Toro Rosso - 1:25.667 + 0.415
4. Romain Grosjean : Lotus - 1:26.042 + 0.790
5. Adrian Sutil :Force India - 1:26.212 + 0.960
6. Lewis Hamilton : Mercedes GP - 1:26.374 + 1.122
7. Valtteri Bottas : Williams - 1:26.456 + 1.204
8. Kimi Räikkönen : Lotus - 1:26.614 + 1.362
9. Nico Rosberg : Mercedes GP - 1:26.621 + 1.369
10. Paul di Resta : Force India - 1:26.755 + 1.503
11. Daniel Ricciardo : Toro Rosso - 1:26.940 + 1.688
12. Nico Hulkenberg : Sauber - 1:27.061 + 1.809
13. Sergio Perez : McLaren - 1:27.135 + 1.883
14. Esteban Gutierrez : Sauber - 1:27.250 + 1.998
15. Pastor Maldonado : Williams - 1:27.576 + 2.324
16. Heikki Kovalainen : Caterham - 1:28.373 + 3.121
17. Giedo van der Garde : Caterham - 1:28.600 + 3.348
18. Jules Bianchi : Marussia F1 Team - 1:28.887 + 3.635
19. Sebastian Vettel : Red Bull Racing - 1:29.457 + 4.205
20. Mark Webber : Red Bull Racing - 1:29.473 + 4.221
21. Rodolfo Gonzalez : Marussia F1 Team - 1:30.314 + 5.062
22. Jenson Button : McLaren - no time set

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

Barcelona GP – Circuit de Catalunya - Montmelò
the Grand Prix of Spain has a good tradition in the history of F1. The first edition was held in 1951, but only from the end of the sixties becomes a regular event in the calendar. In the past various circuits (Jarama, Jerez and Montjuic) hosted the Spanish GP and since 1991 the circuit of Barcelona is the home of the event. All the drivers know very well this track because often hosts pre-season winter testing. During these twenty years, the track has not changed a lot. Personally I don't like the chicane inserted between the last two curves Europcar and New Holland; however, the layout is still quite good. Montmelò is a technical circuit with some interesting corners and an important test for the aerodynamics of the cars. Tyre: hard compound(orange stripe) and medium compound(white stripe) a very conservative choice because tyre wear is high: also brake demand and downforce level are high.
Now we have spectacular races, but in the past the Formula One was completely different and better for me.
today is 8th May and lots of old memories came to my mind.
Exactly 31 years ago, it was on saturday and there was the final qualifying session of the Belgium GP at Zolder. That afternoon I was not at my home and I heard on the radio that Villeneuve was at Lovanio’s hospital after a terrible crash. Gilles died that same evening, but I would remember two extraordinary victories of Gilles: Jarama 81 and Monaco 81 and his exploits. At Canadian Grand Prix, Gilles had damaged the front wing obscuring the most of his view, nevertheless he drove his Ferrari for many laps in heavy rain condition.
But above all is in the legend of formula One what happened at Dijon(French Grand Prix 1979). Arnoux(Renault) vs Villenueve(Ferrari) in the last three laps, wheel to wheel, side by side, in a series of passes. Breathtaking. I watch Formula One racing since 40 years but do not remember a duel as much exciting.
and how once: Forza Gil.
