Io credo che l'anno prossimo la Indy sarà  ancor più seguita

Da me sicuramente.

 

Il GP del Brasile è stato, con ogni probabilità , l'ultimo atto della mia "carriera" di spettatore...

[R18]

Anche questa è notevole...

 

Ma del resto Eric$$on ha già  lasciato la squadra, di soldi ne mancano un bel po'. Per una gara una tantum potrebbe arrivare chiunque.

Beh, negli anni 60 le F2 hanno rinfoltito lo schieramento in più di un GP.

Le doti di Jacky Ickx furono notate proprio perché al Ring fece una gara da urlo con una F2 prima che gli cedesse una sospensione.

Fece soprattutto una qualifica da urlo

Domani la McLaren sarà  a Silverstone per un "filming day". Girerà  per la prima volta la McLaren MP4-29H, quella motorizzata Honda.

Buoyed by the end of his legal troubles, Formula 1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone says he is now determined to never step down as the sport’s chief executive.

 

Having turned 84 this year, the Briton admits 2014 was particularly difficult as he battled to fight off the Gerhard Gribkowsky scandal that nearly saw him not only nearly deposed, but potentially also in jail.

 

He won the day with a highly controversial $100 million settlement, and is now once again presiding fully over the Formula 1 kingdom he built almost from scratch.

 

So Ecclestone is no longer intimating his decades-long reign may be nearing an end. Asked by the correspondent for Gulf News, the diminutive Briton replied rhetorically: “When am I going to quit?

 

“Sure, it’s been a terrible year, one of the worst of my life but, as I have told you often enough before, and nothing has changed, I am staying put,” said Ecclestone.

 

“The only way my job in Formula 1 will come to an end, unless somebody with the power decrees it, is when they are carrying me away in my coffin. And then they’d better make sure the lid is nailed down,” he added.

 

As ever with a specific position taken by Ecclestone, however, he does caution that he might change his mind under some circumstances.

 

For instance, he told the BBC recently that while he would like to tweak Formula 1’s income distribution, as well as the sporting and technical regulations, “The big problem is that now we run a democracy”.

 

“You know I’m against democracies, with anything,” said Ecclestone. “You have a democracy if you don’t want to do anything except start a working group. We have to be able to say : This is how it’s going to be.”

 

Now, he told Gulf News in London: “I have always run the business the way I thought it should be organised. And it has mostly worked. The minute I can’t do that, I will quit.

 

“I have often flown by the seat of my pants with nobody but myself to turn to. Sometimes I’ve got it wrong — but mostly I’ve got it right.

 

“And Formula 1, and the thousands of people in it, and the many millions of followers worldwide, have been the beneficiaries,” he added. (GMM)

E beh, il valore storico ha il suo prezzo... Che roba...

[R18]

Dirò che forse è meglio che Ecclestone non se ne vada... Sbaglierò...

Mai avuto dubbi.

 

Anzi, non escluderei l'ipotesi farsesca.

Se il titolo originale era quello, un motivo ci sarà

Michelin is not ruling out a return to formula one. The French marque left the sport at the end of 2006, amid acrimony with the governing FIA and disappointed with the move to a single-tyre formula.

 

F1 turned first to Bridgestone and now to Pirelli, but there have always been rumblings that Michelin may be interested in returning under certain circumstances.

 

"They (the F1 rules) must respect the tyre," Michelin's motor sport boss Pascal Couasnon is quoted by the French website toilef1.com.

 

"We need the tyre not to be an object of show, but an object of technology," he insisted.

 

Another of Michelin's conditions has been the move to a more road-relevant lower profile tyre, which appears now to be on the cards for the near future.

 

Couasnon also said Michelin is not opposed to contributing to the F1 'show'.

 

"We have some ideas to make a great show," he said. "We are just saying that technology does not prevent a show.

 

"We have been very clear: (tyre) dimensions that resemble something that we can learn from and so that the money we spend on F1 can help us with the technology for both your car and mine.

 

"We also want regulations so that tyres don't have to be changed every few laps, but if they want to make pitstops then why not?

 

"Why not reuse the tyre that started the race also to finish it, and then we can make long-lasting tyres that are stable and fast -- it's very complicated and we like that," Couasnon continued.

 

Until now, however, the main condition placed on Michelin's return has been its insistence that there be a 'tyre war' with at least one other supplier.

 

Couasnon said: "If they are open to having several manufacturers, great! But we are also ready to go alone, but with something (regulations) that make sense, otherwise we would not be Michelin."

Difficile dargli torto.

Una volta un noto utente di questo forum disse che il matrimonio di Ralf è solo di facciata. Ma se è così (e non ne dubito) perché fanno tanto casino? Pubblicità ?

[Ayrton4ever]

magari è saltato qualche pagamento...

Perche' forse dubitare è sempre salutare...
