FORMULA 1 GROSSER PREIS SANTANDER VON DEUTSCHLAND 2011 - FRIDAY PRACTICE 1

Well, it was a good practice. Indeed, a really good practice if we considers the consequences about championship. Alonso on top spot, but the time that every driver wants just will be got by afternoon, on Friday Practice 2, with good conditions, when I say that, I mean dry track.
Vettel did a good lap, but he can do better. But easy guys, easy! It's just the Practice 1, no one gets the top gear on Practice 1.
Maybe the track was a little wet, I wasn't there, and I didn't see too much to give my word. Nurburgring is a big wide track, could rain in some point of the circuit, as could not rain in another point. We expect big surprises here (I mean, there in Germany), and one of that surprises is the rain. Light or Heavy Raind could make the race more funny and interesting, like in 2007, when everybody, or almost everybody got their cars on gravel. And anyone can't forget the incredible and heavy accident of Lewis Hamilton on qualifying session.
But, you know, we'll have to wait and see what happens, that's my idea about Nurburgring.

FORMULA 1 GROSSER PREIS SANTANDER VON DEUTSCHLAND 2011 - TREINO LIVRE 1

Bom, começamos com o treino livre 1. De fato um treino bom, considerando todos os fatores do campeonato. Alonso na frente com um tempo regular, o tempo ótimo e perfeito só será alcançado nos próximos treinos com pneus macios e condições boas de pista, com isso eu digo, pista seca.
Vettel andou bem, mas não o quanto se esperava dele. Mas calma! É apenas o primeiro treino livre, algumas pessoas tiram conclusões por apenas assistirem o primeiro dos treinos que não vale nada. Maneira de falar, porque para os pilotos vale muito. Talvez a pista estava meio molhada, não estava lá e aquele circuito é grande, com a probabilidade de chover em uma parte, e estar seca na outra.
Rubens Barrichello no qual vinha com novas mudanças em sua Williams, ficou em 14° e não brilhou muito. Massa é 4° provando mais uma vez que sua Ferrari está evoluindo, mas é questão de tempo para a Ferrari de el fódon (Alonso) se destacar mais. Ou também o piloto, né ?! Piloto faz a diferença sim!
É isso, sem muitas surpresas, agora é esperar o treino livre 2 a tarde, isto é, de tarde lá e de manhã aqui.

July 11, Jaguare Racing Club

Hey guys, Rafael Ganzer here.
As you know, today I went to Jaguare go karting race track, one of my favorite tracks around Sao Paulo, with my friend who loves race like me.
It was a good race, enjoyed the practice and qualifying session. I did the pole position in hard times and the fastest lap of the race, so long that I haven't driver a go kart. Started on pole position with good chances to get a win this afternoon, and I had a good start in front, getting fast laps around the circuit.
In the middle of the race, I was maintaining the pace, but some drivers screwed me up, and I could not do anything. And in the final part of the race, a driver just got my position and I was making a battle to get it back.
In the last lap of the race, I was about to pass him, but he pushed me into the tires, and that made me stop for seconds, costing me a win. That made me nervous, and I could not do nothing about it. Then I talked to race control, but they didn't nothing, so I took my thing and got out as soon as possible.
I was nervous, to be honest, but it's okay, it was a good race, I did maintain the pace and got some important skills. That's it, now it's time to turn up the page and hope win the next one.
See you in my next race guys.
