2012 Hungarian Grand Prix preview by Vodafone McLaren Mercedes ~ Grease n Gasoline

Hungaroring facts & stats by Vodafone McLaren Mercedes

2012 Hungarian Grand Prix preview
Incredibly, only seven of the 20 racetracks on this year’s Formula 1 calendar are older than the Hungaroring. It was built in just eight months ahead of staging its first grand prix in August 1986. And it’s been a regular fixture on the calendar ever since.

The 2.722-mile/4.381km track is the slowest permanent circuit of the season. It’s narrow and bumpy, and its five 180-degree hairpins place a great deal of emphasis on low-speed mechanical grip. Braking and traction are also crucial in order to set a competitive lap time.

The track isn’t used much during the year, so the asphalt is normally very dusty and slippery at the start of the race weekend. It takes most of FP1 on Friday for the cars to create a clean line, after which set-up work can begin in earnest. As was the case in Germany, the teams will be working with Pirelli’s medium and soft compounds.

Ferrari 2013 Massa Contract Options ~ Grease n Gasoline

 Ferrari lets 2013 Massa contract 'option' expire
Jul.27 (GMM) Ferrari has allowed a contract 'option' on Felipe Massa's services for the 2013 season to expire, according to Italy's Autosprint magazine.Amid the Brazilian's early struggles in 2012, it appeared a certainty that the Italian team was on the market for a new teammate for Fernando Alonso.But Massa sped up as the F2012 also improved, even though it emerges that in the past days Ferrari let a one-sided contract option - that would have seen Massa definitely stay next season - expire.It means that if the 31-year-old races a Ferrari for an eighth consecutive season in 2013, he will have agreed a brand new contract.Massa told reporters in Hungary on Thursday that if he cannot stay at Ferrari, he could leave formula one altogether.

He was right, and upon its release it was the fastest and most powerful – not to mention the most expensive – car Ferrari had ever produced. It was also the first road legal production car to break the 200 mph (321 km/h) barrier, with a top speed of 201 mph (323 km/h).Powered by an enlarged, 2.9-liter twin turbo V8 engine developing 352 kW (471 hp) and with a weight of 1.1 tonnes, the F40 has recorded 0-100 km/h (62 mph) times of 3.8 seconds in road tests, with the track only version getting as low as 3.2 seconds.While things were more sedate at the Silverstone Classic event on Sunday, when the 60 F40s led a parade of more then 400 rare and exotic cars around the Silverstone circuit..

F1 : McLaren's Upgrades Influenced By Ferrari
McLaren's car updates have pushed the car back up in between the front runners, and unsurprisingly, the improvement came once again from exhaust modifications. McLaren redesigned the sidepod to have the exhaust exit lower above the ground and further back, creating a more consistent flow onto the outer extremities of the diffuser.

WHAT'S REALLY BEHIND AN F1 WIN ~ Grease n Gasoline

Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso became the first man this season to win three Grands Prix after another assured drive saw him take victory at the German Grand Prix .Although Jenson Button caught Alonso fairly quickly after passing Sebastian Vettel’s Red Bull in the second series of pit stops, he was unable to close the gap significantly to mount a challenge to pass. Indeed, it was Button who was passed himself by Vettel on the penultimate lap, albeit illegally as he gained an unfair advantage in going off the track to complete the maneuver and found himself demoted to fifth after receiving a 20-second penalty.
