Yes, Red Bull again, Vettel's hand without breaking a sweat, and won even without KERS sacándole second place 22 seconds to Lewis Hamilton. was to be expected since the preseason, had seen the cars were very strong energy drink, the note was the fifth place of Mark Webber, in theory with the same material, which seems to be motivated by a problem in the chassis wears out covers, which is now being investigated and corrected Red Bull for the next race in Malaysia.
The surprise of the day was the Russian Vitaly Petrov who gets into this race, his first podium and repeated with Abu Dhabi with Alonso behind (it seems that Alonso is credited with being behind Petrov).
The other big surprise of the week was McLaren that Lewis Hamilton's hand after a not very good preseason, have managed to plant a little ahead of Red Bull, thanks to changes which led to the car for this race. Some suggest that specialized media have already achieved the flexible front wing famous Red Bull will pass all the tests of the FIA \u200b\u200bbut it looks very close to the track.
have to go down to the fourth plaza to watch the first Ferrari, the hand of Fernando Alonso, who starred in one of his worst outings and stay ninth, a situation that could overcome a lot of effort coming to the end to a fourth place. It is clear that Ferrari have a good race pace and this has pushed up the Spaniard positions, but on one lap in qualifying have serious issues with getting the optimum temperature of the tires and will be corrected as soon as possible if they want to be up.
Impressive progress shown by Sauber at the end disqualified for an irregularity on the rear wing whose influence on the car's performance is not very clear. The Mexican and Perez made a great debut race driving like a lady and looking after the tires so far, which has allowed him to race just one stop.
All GP exciting has been the struggle Button-Massa but here it was seen that despite the DRS to use the McLaren to Ferrari could not even be a second a lap faster than Massa. Button could end pass Massa but skipping a chicane in the second sector. To have missed the chicane should have instantly returned the position to avoid being sanctioned. But behind Alonso who came advantage of the situation, went to Massa and Button was two positions back then. It is speculated that the advancement of Alonso was a team order to Massa (this year as you can) so that Button has to return two positions and thus to overcome the two Ferraris. After this, the first pit stop, Fernando Alonso on lap 13 and Felipe Massa enters the next round making it "move" to the commissioners to stick a drive through a Button.
The big fiasco performance
Mercedes Mercedes seemed to have taken a quantum leap in recent tests at Montmelo to keep the Kaiser with the fastest time of the preseason, but his race performance has been disappointing and encarrera very bad rate. According
Christian Horner, Red Bull boss joked British sarcastically Germany Bild newspaper: " Mercedes was lucky to leave, so nobody could see how slow they were "
After the incident, Schumacher admitted that Mercedes had lacked speed in the Australian. "I can not tell you how good we could have gone in the race because my car was damaged in the third corner. But I definitely would not have been easy. After encouraging winter tests, we came here with very different expectations," says Kaiser.
Mercedes also suffered problems with KERS in the opening weekend of 2011, but the sporting director of the silver arrows, Norbert Haug, urged calm. "Having panic or to rush would be a recipe for failure "
difficult to identify compounds
The silver hard compounds used in Australia has been very dificl to identify with making it very difficult to see that each team uses comprised in the race. We had warned that the issue of colors would be talking about. I selected compounds for the first three races of the year - Australia, Malaysia and China - are the hard and soft, identified with silver and yellow markings. With a bit of sun and away from sports journalists or buy glasses or going to have to play a guessing game. Paul Hembery
acknowledged criticism of the method to visibly distinguish the two compounds used in Melbourne. The pilots used the soft and hard rubber during the first weekend of 2011, causing some apprehension among professionals and amateurs.
" thought the light was yellow, and looking at the images on television do not think there's any doubt in seeing the yellow marks. But, what about silver? Yes, I think we need to work on it because it is noticed Unlike the black of the tire. But if that were my biggest problem, then I'll be happy . "
The Williams driver Rubens Barrichello, is one of the leading personalities who believes the color system needs improvement. " colors tires permir not distinguish what is happening. Pirelli need to do something for the audience. If you have a freeze frame you can see what you get. But with the car in action, you can not see that tire are wearing. So imagine what can be seen from the stands. It would be nice to do something different "disqualified
Sauber Peter Sauber is the world collapsed when he was told stewards disqualified at GP Australia by an error in the curvature of the upper wing flap Sauber rear. Thus he vanished with Peter Sauber's dream to see both drivers in the points.
In particular piece apparently, and according to statements by Sauber, had a manufacturing defect (the original plans were correct) and the radius of curvature of the concave portion was less than 100 mm. specified in article 3.10.1 of the technical regulation that states:
"Any part located more than 150 mm behind the center of the rear wheel is between 150 and 730 mm above the reference plane and between 75 and 355 mm from the centerline of the car, you should be in one area, side view of the car, which is located between 150 and 350 mm behind the center line of the rear wheel and between 300 and 400 mm above the reference plane. In the side view of the car can not be a longitudinal section cut more than one section in this area. In addition, no part of this section that is in contact with the external air flow can have a concave radius of local curvature less than 100 mm. Once defined this section, can be attached Profiles 'gurney' the trailing edge flap. When measured in any longitudinal section of a profile no dimension can exceed 20 mm "
Being a manufacturing defect will not use the Sauber disqualification of their two cars.
Below you can see the piece that caused the decision of the stewards, is so small that it can vvar in a suitcase
After the disqualification, Adrian Sutil and Paul Di Resta pass the last two positions entitled to points (both Force India in the points), while Felipe Massa goes up to seventh place and SĂ©bastien Buemi the eighth.
The end result can be seen on the official website of the Formula 1 .
