F1 – Gp Silverstone: THE POINT…by Gian Carlo Minardi

silverstone.jpg'Another amazing week-end for Ferrari, even if Red Bull’s car was the best on track. The Spaniard of Ferrari team scored important points and I think he did his best in qualifying. In fact he was the leader throughout the race and his standing is getting more and more interesting.

F1 – GP Valencia: THE POINT …. by Gian Carlo Minardi

valencia.jpg' Unlike past seasons the Gp in Valencia has been really amazing and we’ve seen an extraordinary Fernando Alonso showing all his self-confidence, especially in overtaking.
Ferrari team has been amazing as well, especially after a Saturday that could seem ruinous( even if it was only 3 dec far from the pole ). Good job also at pit stops, where mechanics made no mistakes in changing tyres.
This victory should be a great spur to keep on improving performances and struggle with no anxiety. In view of what happened to Vettel and Grosjean, the Italian team showed also a great reliability, which could be a “secret weapon”. Just the German driver, together with the four leading drivers, has been a protagonist of a good attack play. I don’t agree about the penalty imposed on Maldonado. It seemed to be a race collision, even because Hamilton was in big trouble with its rear-tyres. I think that the resistance he put up was absolutely meaningless and caused himself and Pastor a great loss of precious points. Until that moment the driver of McLaren was having a high-key race.

F1 – GP Monaco: THE POINT…..by Gian Carlo Minardi

monaco.jpg' MONTECARLO- Yesterday’s Gp in Monaco was really amazing. After 78 laps six cars crossed the line within just 6 seconds. This is one of the most intense and competitive Championships of the F1 history. The competition will be played till the end and placing will be decisive. After six races ( won by six different drivers ) we haven’t a leader yet.

F1- GP Spain: the point…….by Gian Carlo Minardi

maldonado.jpg' BARCELONA- The fact that we have 5 different winners in many Gps is really interesting. It’s really appreciable that an understimated driver like Maldonado, has managed to get such an important goal both for himself and his team. The Williams is getting more and more powerful. I think it can fight for the fifth or the sixth position, even if it can only rely on one driver.

F1 – GP Bahrein: The point…..by Gian Carlo Minardi

bahrein_vetter.jpg'With the Bahrein GP last Sunday we’ve seen again how competitive Formula 1 is this year. Four GPs, different winners and eight different pilots on the podium. The influence of tires is so strong. Only one week ago Raikkonen lost the chance of a second position just two laps before the line, whereas in Bahrein everything has gone better.

F1-China Grand Prix: The point….by Gian Carlo Minardi

cina_rosberg.jpg' The China Grand Prix showed an interesting variable concerning tyre compounds. The interesting fact is that in a gap from 3 to 4 degrees, performances can notably change, making the championship even more exciting. We have to make our congratulations to Nico Rosberg, one of the best pilots of the grid, who made a perfect week-end: from the pole position to the victory. I’m pleased to see the German pilot, who runs for Mercedes team, breaking the leadership of the world champions. After Button and Alonso, Rosberg.

F1 – GP Abu Dhabi: THE POINT …. of Gian Carlo Minardi

win.jpg'Honor to the winner. At the end of a thrilling World won the strongest rider with the best car, even though his team was not error free. Most likely without all those episodes would have won the championship with 100 points higher on other opponents. The security and certainty of having the best car in his hands gave him the opportunity to take risks, leading to the success of their pilot.

F1 – GP Korea: THE POINT…of Gian Carlo Minardi

win.jpg'As already happened in other occasions, including at Yeongam the weather has created uncertainty, moving the course of the Grand Prix. The oil that oozed from the new road surface and especially the arrival of the tornado, which has delayed the start (forcing the pilots to compete in low light) has helped to give us a run full of emotions, accidents and errors such as Mark Webber, which affected not only his weekend and his ranking but also the course of a Rosberg, who was catching up with great determination and speed, and Lewis Hamilton at the restart after the safety car returned to the pits.
