Lewis Hamilton scorches to pole hat-trick

Budapest: Lewis Hamilton scorched to his third pole position in a row for Mercedes in searing track temperatures at the Hungarian Grand Prix on Saturday.

The 2008 Formula One world champion, a triple winner in Hungary with McLaren, lapped the circuit with a best time of one minute 19.388 seconds to deny Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel the top slot.

“Are we on pole?,” the Briton shouted over the radio on his slowing down lap at the Hungaroring. “Yeah, we’re as surprised as you,” came the reply.

Triple world champion Vettel, who leads Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso in the standings by 34 points after nine of 19 races, could manage only 1:19.426 with the track temperature hitting 50 degrees earlier in the session. He starts second.

Hamilton had never before in his career taken three successive poles and his fourth of the season took his overall tally to 30 — one more than the late Argentine five-times champion Juan Manuel Fangio.

“With the temperatures, it was pretty tough,” said Hamilton, who won from pole last year in Hungary but has yet to win a race since leaving McLaren at the end of the 2012 season. “I was really surprised when they said I got pole. I didn’t feel like that was a great lap.

“I was expecting Sebastian to get it.”

Frenchman Romain Grosjean qualified third for Lotus with Hamilton’s German teammate Nico Rosberg fourth. Alonso, who has not started on pole for more than a year and turns 32 on Monday, will start fifth.

“It is stupid to sit and say, we should have done this and we should have done that,” said Vettel, who dominated Friday practice but has never won in Hungary. “Mercedes have good pace in qualifying so you have to be fair and respect that. I would have loved to have been a little bit faster and on pole but we have a good car and are in a good position.

“We should have a good race tomorrow and I am quite confident.”

The race will be the first using the new Pirelli tyres, which have been changed to marry the current compounds with last year’s structure after a spate of blowouts in the British Grand Prix last month.

Mercedes were the only team who did not try out the new tyres at Silverstone last week, as a punishment for a ‘secret’ test with Pirelli in Spain in May, but their absence did not appear to hurt them.

“We brought some upgrades this weekend, the guys are working hard and it’s a result of all the hard work they’ve put in,” said Hamilton.

Grosjean’s teammate Kimi Raikkonen, third in the overall standings and 41 points behind Vettel, qualified sixth while Australian Daniel Ricciardo continued to impress in eighth place for Toro Rosso.

Compatriot Mark Webber, the man Ricciardo hopes to replace at Red Bull next year, starts 10th after suffering Kers problems from the second phase of qualifying.

McLaren’s hopes of an improved showing at a circuit that has been good to them in the past, with six wins in eight years, faded with Mexican Sergio Perez qualifying ninth and Britain’s Jenson Button 13th.

The big loser in the first phase was Force India’s Paul Di Resta, who qualified 18th and was baffled at the car’s lack of performance.

“Where did the grip and tyres go?”, the Scot asked his team over the radio. “Looks like we’ve got some work to do,” they replied.

Mercedes sense their chance

London: “We’ve gone on holiday by mistake,” says Richard E Grant’s Withnail in that wonderful black comedy Withnail and I, and one senses that Ross Brawn, the Mercedes team principal, feels rather the same way.

While the summer sabbatical feels like a lifesaver for many in the hectically scheduled, vroom-and-bust world of Formula One, its timing was less than ideal for a Mercedes team that appeared to be gathering a menacing momentum in the weeks leading up to the break.

Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg are the strongest drivers’ pairing in the paddock. And now that they have the quickest car too, at least over one lap, they look the most likely to threaten Red Bull’s hegemony in the second half of the season.

With three wins and four pole positions in the past five races, the Mercedes WO4 is second to Red Bull in the constructors’ championship. And if Hamilton can reproduce the intensity of his weekend at the Hungaroring at the end of July at the very different Spa circuit next Sunday, when F1 racing returns, he will emerge as the most credible challenger for Sebastian Vettel’s individual crown.

In fourth place, 48 points behind Vettel with nine races to go, he may look like an outsider but, at his best and when given the right equipment, Hamilton is too much of a handful for anyone, including the current world champion.

His difficulty will be in matching Vettel’s staggering level of consistency, but the next three tracks glitter with promise for him. The fast Spa-Francorchamps circuit, with some of the best corner sections in the sport, is a drivers’ track, and no one drives quite like Hamilton, who won here in 2010.

Two weeks later comes Monza, the quickest of them all, and Hamilton won here, heroically, last year. That is followed by Singapore, where again Hamilton was in dominant form last season before his McLaren betrayed him.

“I’m really looking forward to the second half; that is usually my favourite part,” he says. “I can honestly say I feel just so invigorated, it’s so refreshing to be somewhere new. I hope there’s a world championship somewhere ahead. That’s what I’m working for every year, that’s why I keep that discipline, that’s why I train so much over the winter, that’s why I wake up every day and train.

“That’s why I put so much effort into travelling and that’s why you sacrifice so many small things, certain things in your life, and so I hope at some stage I get that second world championship.”

Brawn, too, is optimistic about the races ahead. “We’ll have a much more respectable second half,” he says. “We’ve scored more points already than we did last year, and we’re just over halfway through. We’ve got a strong enough organisation to ensure we won’t let it slip. We’re on a journey here with Lewis and we don’t know where the limits are.”

Everyone, including Mercedes, will be taking a long hard look at the tyres at Spa. The new Pirelli tyre, a combination of the 2012 construction and the 2013 compound, uses Kevlar composite instead of steel in its construction. It added up to some cool running in Hungary. But the Hungaroring circuit is not dissimilar to Monaco in some respects. It is certainly not a representative track.

The next few weeks will shape not only the two world championships but also the driver line-ups for next year, with Mark Webber’s approaching retirement opening up a number of possibilities. The Red Bull seat is still likely to go to Daniel Ricciardo or Raikkonen, despite links with Fernando Alonso. But Alonso’s teammate, Felipe Massa, is under familiar pressure.

There will be no changes at Mercedes or McLaren, though Sergio Prez’s recent description of his McLaren car as “complicated, difficult and inconsistent” is not exactly what the team wanted to hear on their 50th anniversary.

Ukraine, Latvia, Croatia win at Euro championship

Ante Tomic made a layup with nine seconds remaining to give Croatia a 77-76 victory over Georgia at the European championship on Thursday.

Also, Ukraine and Latvia won their second games in two days. Ukraine beat Israel 74-67 behind 17 points from Sergii Gladir, while Latvia edged Montenegro 73-72 on a jumper by Kristaps Janicenoks with six seconds on the clock.

Finland also won its second straight by beating Sweden 81-60.

Croatia bounced back after a big loss to Spain, with Dontaye Draper leading the Croats with 16 points. Viktor Sanikidze made a 3-pointer for a one-point Georgia lead but Antic then scored the winning basket.

George Tsintsadze led Georgia with 25 points but missed a last-second layup.

Janicenoks scored five points in the last 20 seconds to deny Montenegro, which beat Macedonia by a point a day earlier.

American-born guard Tyrese Rice had converted a three-point play to put Montenegro up by one with 11 seconds remaining, before Janicenoks sank the jumper. Rice then missed a final layup despite leading Montenegro with 24 points.

Ukraine had a balanced team effort and never trailed after opening the match with a 13-2 run. Viacheslav Kravtsov contributed 15 points and eight rebounds. Afik Nissim was the only Israeli to score in double digits with 12.

Ukraine now has a 2-0 record in Group A, while Israel is 0-2.

Latvia is 2-0 in Group B and Montenegro 1-1. Croatia and Georgia are 1-1 in Group C. Finland is 2-0 in Group D and Sweden is 0-2.

Three teams from each group advance to the second round of the 24-team tournament.

Eric Abidal angry at Barcelona, claims lack of pay

Eric Abidal is angry at how his Barcelona career came to an end and claims he was not even paid by the club when he was seriously ill.

The 34-year-old Abidal had a liver transplant last April, ruling him out of the 2012 European Championship and keeping him away from football for one year. He returned to make a few appearances for Barcelona before leaving to join Monaco in the offseason.

"The problem was that my contract was coming to an end. In that case, either it's renewed, either it ends. I was prepared for both," Abidal said in an interview with sports daily L'Equipe published Friday. "It was hard to accept but you don't have the choice. The adventure with Barcelona is over, but I'm very happy to have started another one with Monaco."

But Abidal said he was disappointed at how his departure was announced.

"What was hard to understand was what Barcelona said during my last press conference. By saying that it was a professional choice, it made other clubs doubt," Abidal said. "It wasn't even a question of money. The proof being that all the months I was ill, the club didn't pay me. Now I'm lucky to have the trust of the Monaco coach and president. Touch wood, everything's fine. But it's true that there was a time when I doubted myself."

Abidal has played 90 minutes for Monaco in every league game and was expected to play for France later Friday in its World Cup qualifier at Georgia.

After joining from Lyon in 2007, Abidal played 125 league games for Barcelona, helping the Catalan club to win four league titles and two European Cups. He forged a close bond with former coach Pep Guardiola, who is now in charge of Bayern Munich.

"He's someone who appreciates me enormously and I'm still in touch with," Abidal said. "He was a great coach. He's the one who gave me my chance. If he was still there, I may have continued (with Barcelona)."

Hulkenberg to race for Sauber F1 in 2013

Nico Hulkenberg will race for the Swiss based outfit in 2013 after signing today a deal.

The 25-year-old German won the GP2 Series in 2009, made his Formula 1 debut in 2010 with the Williams F1 Team and managed to capture a pole position in his maiden year. He is currently driving for Sahara Force India and ranks 12th in the Drivers’ World Championship with 49 points after 17 out of 20 races.

Hulkenberg’s best Formula One race result this season was at the Belgian Grand Prix, where he finished fourth on the challenging Spa-Francorchamps circuit.

“We’ve been observing Nico for some time now and his performances have been very persuasive,” said Sauber F1 Team Principal Monisha Kaltenborn. “That was the case in GP2 and has continued into Formula One. An obvious highlight was how he scored pole at Interlagos in 2010 despite the most challenging external conditions. He clearly showed that he can seize the chance if it arises. But high spots like that are one thing; systematic teamwork is another – and on that score I have confidence in Nico too. I’m sure he will fit in very well with the Sauber F1 Team. We look forward to working together with him.”

“I’m really looking forward to working with the Sauber F1 Team. It’s a well-placed team and very competitive,” said Nico Hulkenberg. “Plus it’s a team in which young drivers have repeatedly delivered exceptional performances. I would like to take up that baton. The Sauber F1 Team is currently going through a very positive development and I’m certain that together we can achieve a lot. Until that time I will remain fully focused on my job with the Sahara Force India Team. I’d like to thank the management at Sahara Force India for giving me the chance to return to Formula One as a team driver.”

The Swiss based team will announce its second driver for the 2013 season at a later date.

Ferrari launch the Ferrari F138 F1 single seater

Scuderia Ferrari launched today at Maranello its 2013 F1 car, the Ferrari F138. The choice of the F138 name, derives from a combination of the current year and the number of cylinders, partly to mark the fact that this will be the last year that the V8 engine configuration will be used in Formula 1, bringing to an end what will be an eight year career.

Ferrari F138 front
The Ferrari F138 is the fifty ninth car built by the Italian team specifically to take part in the Formula 1 World Championship. The project, which goes by the internal code name 664, is the first design to come from the reorganisation concerning working methods that has been in operation for several months, with the creation of two distinct groups of designers: one working on this car and the other on the completely different car which will race next season. This car constitutes Ferrari’s interpretation of this year’s Technical and Sporting Regulations, which in fact are substantially the same as those from last season. Therefore the F138 can be seen as an evolution of the F2012, in terms of its basic design principals, although every single part has been revised in order to maximise performance, while maintaining all the characteristics which were the basis of last season’s extraordinary reliability.

Ferrari F138 front
The design philosophy of the suspension layout has not changed and it continues to use pull-rods both front and rear, but it has been refined to the limit, in order to gain as much aerodynamic advantage as possible, especially at the rear. The bodywork elements have been redesigned to allow for changes to the positioning and layout of the exhausts. The dynamic air intake, mounted above the cockpit has been redesigned, as have been the intakes to the side pods, which in turn have also been optimised in aerodynamic terms, while maintaining unchanged the overall cooling system. The rear of the car is much narrower and more tapered on the lower part. The configuration of the front and rear wings derives directly from the last versions used on the F2012, partly because development of that car ran all the way to the final race of last season. However, the aerodynamic elements shown on the car are only those from the initial phase of development: significant modifications will be introduced in the weeks leading up to the first race and a busy development programme is already planned. The drag reduction system on the rear wing has been revised and optimised to make the most of the modifications to the Sporting Regulations that come into play this year. There are detailed changes to the design of the brake ducts, both front and rear and work has been carried out with Brembo on optimising the braking system overall. During both the design and production stages, great attention has been paid to weight reduction and on increasing rigidity. This theme was carried out through all departments working together – Chassis, Engine and Electronics and Production – which bears witness to the importance of being able to design and build a car with everyone working side by side in the same place, which has always been the case at Ferrari.

Ferrari F138 side
The engine on the F138 is an evolution of the one fitted to the car last year, inevitably given that the technical regulations forbid modifications to internal components aimed at improving performance. Given the consequent difficulty of finding performance increases through internal modifications, work was intensified on ensuring that the engine’s performance level remained as high as possible throughout the lifecycle of each power unit, which has now reached an average life of three races.

Ferrari F138
The KERS retains its location in the lower-central part of the car, a strategic choice which has always been adopted by the team, partly with the aim of ensuring maximum safety. Once again this year, a great deal of effort has gone into reducing its weight and size, at the same time improving the efficiency of some of its components and, as in the case of the engine, maintaining the highest performance level throughout the KERS usage cycle. The technical collaboration with Shell, which has run for several decades now, has led to further progress on the fuel and lubricants front, aimed at increasing performance in overall terms and also on maintaining it throughout the engine’s life, as well as reducing consumption.

Ferrari F138
As for the electronics, it is worth noting the introduction, ahead of schedule, of the single control unit that will be used in 2014. This has involved a lot of work to integrate and control all its features in terms of both software and hardware.

Mercedes unveil new W04 F1 single seater at Jerez

The Mercedes F1 Team unveiled today in Jerez, Spain its 2013 Formula One car, the Mercedes AMG F1 W04.

The new F1 W04 completed its first laps of today’s 100 km shakedown at 10:21 CET in the hands of Nico Rosberg, who drove the car throughout the morning. Lewis Hamilton will take the wheel of a Formula One Silver Arrow for the first time this afternoon, the first British driver since Sir Stirling Moss in 1955. The car will then complete four days of testing this week in Jerez, in the hands of Nico and Lewis.

Mercedes GP MGP W04
With the technical regulations remaining stable in 2013, ahead of major changes for 2014, the basic vehicle concept of the F1 W04 is a sophisticated evolution of last year’s car. Led by Engineering Director Aldo Costa, under the coordination of Technical Director Bob Bell, the project commenced with initial aerodynamic testing in early summer 2012.

Mercedes GP MGP W04
The aerodynamic design philosophy has been optimised around a new five-element front wing design and a second-generation Coanda exhaust at the rear. The car retains pushrod front suspension and a pullrod rear suspension, aimed at optimising tyre life and performance, while the rear end has been aggressively packaged to optimise aerodynamic development potential. The F1 W04 also does away with the stepped nose design of its predecessor thanks to a small ‘vanity panel’, which was found to offer a small gain during aerodynamic testing. The car completed its final mandatory FIA crash test on 15 January.

“2013 marks the start of a second era for our Silver Arrows works team,” said Mercedes F1 Team Principal Ross Brawn. “The restructuring we undertook at the team over the past 18 months are now growing in maturity and this is reflected in the F1 W04, which is a clear step forward in design and detail sophistication over its predecessor. Many thousands of hours of work have been invested by our technical teams in Brackley and Brixworth to ensure that the new car delivers a step change in performance compared to last season. We are also hugely proud to welcome Lewis to the team as a works Mercedes-Benz driver. With Lewis and Nico, we have what I believe to be the strongest driver line-up in Formula One and I know that a healthy level of competition between them both will help drive the team forward.”

Mercedes GP MGP W04
“I’ve been working really hard over the winter on my physical preparation, both in the mountains – climbing to over 2,000 metres with ski boots – and also in the Mediterranean, training on my bike, swimming and running. I fitted that around regular visits to see the guys at the factory in December and January and we have done some really good work, especially in the simulator,” said Nico Rosberg. “The car seems to be performing well in the virtual world but we have a very busy and intense programme ahead of us during testing to make sure we can deliver that performance on track. The atmosphere in the team is very positive and the people are highly motivated to succeed. And, of course, I have a new team-mate with Lewis. It’s his first time in the Silver Arrow and I look forward to working together and pushing each other hard, to make this the best team in Formula One.”

“It’s a very special day for me to officially present our Mercedes-Benz Silver Arrow to the world. There is no company with a longer history in Grand Prix racing than Mercedes-Benz and it is an honour for me to tread in the footsteps of legends like Juan Manuel Fangio, Sir Stirling Moss and Michael Schumacher,” said Lewis Hamilton. “It’s the start of a new chapter for me, a new adventure, and when I walked through the doors in Brackley, I was so excited to get down to work. I’ve been at the factory for a few days now, getting to know the guys, meeting my mechanics and engineers, learning myself into the team and I have never seen a group of people that is hungrier for success than this one. They have been flat out this winter trying to pack more performance into the new car and I can’t wait to drive it and see where I can make a difference to help push the team forward with Nico. This is a new start for me with the team in Brackley but I have worked with Mercedes-Benz for a very long time now, and I learned one thing most of all: Mercedes-Benz doesn’t know how to lose. We are playing a long game here but I know we will have success together and I’m excited to be a big part of making it happen.”
