Formula One Malaysian Grand Prix 2011 live streaming online racing broadcast video feed Nat tv 360 gamecast April 8-10 from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Formula One Malaysian Grand Prix 2011 live streaming online racing broadcast video feed Nat tv 360 gamecast April 8-10 from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Sepang Malaysia(Hollywood Today)4/8/11—It’s hot, it’s sticky and it’s the second round of the 2011 Formula One World Championship in Sepang , Malaysia just outside Kuala Lumpur . Here’s the latest from the media, teams and drivers in KL.
So the podium in Melbourne was host to two world champions (Vettel and Hamilton) and two “podium virgins”. I was fortunate enough to fly with the two podium virgins after the race from Melbourne to Sydney . Vitaly Petrov said that after his third place in Australia he was “unconscious on the podium” and didn’t really remember what happened up there so “I must have looked confused”. Rob Marshall, Chief Designer at Red Bull accepting the winning constructor’s trophy for Red Bull was also on the flight and told me being on the podium was “Surreal”. I’m sure both hope to be on the podium many more times in their careers.
Ferrari’s Felipe Massa told the gathered media he likes this circuit and feels he can do well here. After all he did qualify on pole twice here and remember last year after a very poor qualifying he worked his way through the field to finish in the points (7th). But insiders at Ferrari tell me what may be the biggest boost for Massa is his spirited fight in Melbourne where he kept Button at bay for a number of laps primarily because he used his KERS system at the exact right time. The team have been looking for a jump in Massa ’s race craft and they hope this was a sign of things to come.
OK now McLaren’s Jenson Button has revealed his frustration at getting beat so soundly by the Red Bulls in Australia that he started his own “smear campaign” by telling a group of journalists, “I know a few people that I have spoken to say the Red Bull wing flexes more than what they expect is correct, but I haven’t really spent much time looking at it.” One UK journalist who was previously a big Button fan told me, “That’s it. Jenson is officially a McLaren driver. He used one of Ron Dennis’ favourite tactics by casting a shadow on a competitor’s legality quoting an other/unknown source and then quickly escaping yourself from the comment by saying but something like “But I haven’t really spent much time looking at it.”
Here’s another weird F1 statistic for you; in 2010 there were only 1/6 of the overtaking moves as there was in the 1990 F1 World Championship! That’s why the race within a race this weekend is between the team’s aerodynamicists. Sepang has long been considered one track where a good aerodynamic set-up will pay you dividends and allow you to eventually overtake. Melbourne did not allow the teams to really show off their aero bits and so now you can expect some interesting set-ups on each car. These are the bits they tested in private wind tunnels and on computers and now they will reveal to their competitors for the first time. Many of the untested bits will be used by the Friday 3rd drivers for each team. Many more tested and proven aero parts will be held out until Saturday so competitors cannot copy them overnight and use them in qualifying.
The Renault F1 team fresh off beating Ferrari and Mercedes in Melbourne are very excited by this race. It is well documented that Robert Kubica was their lead driver last year. After all he did score almost 84% of the teams points total. But since Kubica’s accident the team have banded together and really focused on putting forward a great effort. It was that great effort that meant they had a very positive and workmanlike pre-season test session, followed by good practice sessions in Australia and of course a very good race. While most of the paddock was talking about who should replace the injured Kubica and then if the ultimate replacement, Nick Heidfeld, would be an “unfair” advantage given he was a Pirelli test driver. Petrov and the rest of the team got on with the job at hand developing the Renault into a steady and apparently a fast race car.
According to one FIA official, the Sauber F1 team “showed its usually dignity” when it was determined that their cars had an encouraging finish in Melbourne ( 7th and 8th ) and then were ruled to have illegal rear wings. Sauber chose not to appeal the ban despite their infringement by a mere fraction of an inch off the legal limit. The penalty did cost the team dearly as points as so very valuable but team insiders tell me the team is still positively buoyed by their first race on-track results
Mercedes GP are looking to bounce back after what they are calling internally their “worst race weekend ever”. But what’s gone wrong here? One theory goes like this; over the winter Mercedes exercised its option with Aabar ( Abu Dhabi financial concern) and purchased the minority shares from the team’s leadership team (namely Ross Brawn) that they did not own. Have these key team members lost their drive now that they no longer own any shares in the team? One team insider told me, “Before the announcement was made we all noticed Ross going home earlier than he did in the prior 24-months. We thought that was odd. But it all made sense when they announced Mercedes had bought his shares.”
Finally, because it is the Malaysian Grand Prix a lot of the focus is on Lotus. The marque owned by Proton who in turn are partly owned by the Malaysian government. Sadly there are two “Lotus” entries in this year’s championship as the court case between the two protagonists has yet to be resolved. Team Lotus run by Tony Fernandes (recent received and CBE from the Queen of England) doesn’t seem like they are hoping for much this year. Just listen to what Fernandes told some Asia media earlier this week, “”My target for this year was always 10th, Of course, I put a target on the boys to go for eighth. Is there a chance of being eighth? Yes, I think so. The team that we are trying to pick off is Force India . They are Jordan . They’ve been around for 20 years. You’ve got Williams, who I watched as a kid. Toro Rosso has the advantage of Red Bull around them. Sauber have been around for many years. They’ve got fantastic facilities built for them by BMW. We have to think of things in that kind of perspective.” You may agree with most or all of that but then Fernandes said something that really irked the Asia media, “You cannot build a Formula One team in 18-months.” When hearing this statement a leading Asian journalist told me, “On the one hand he is right. But on the other hand last year he kept telling us, wait til next year. So now it seems like he wants us to wait even longer!”
