Lanzamiento del Petronas Mercedes W04 (2013/02/04)

The Mercedes team unveiled on Monday morning the car with which it will compete in during the 2013 season Formula 1 season.

The W04 took to the Jerez circuit for the first time for a few early laps ahead of its official launch in the afternoon.

Mercedes had a disappointing 2012 season despite scoring its first win since its return to F1, with Nico Rosberg winning the Chinese Grand Prix.

From then on its season went downhill and it endured a five-race point-less streak near the end of the year.

Rosberg will be partnered by Lewis Hamilton this season, the Briton joining the Brackley-based squad after spending all his F1 career so far at McLaren.

Hamilton replaces seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, who retired from the sport at the end of 2012.

After Monday's maiden run, the W04 will begin proper testing from Tuesday at Jerez.

Lanzamiento del Infiniti Red Bull RB9 (2013/02/03)

Red Bull unveiled on Sunday the car with which it is aiming to secure its fourth consecutive Formula 1 championship double, the RB9.

The Milton Keynes-based squad took its third drivers' and constructors' championship in 2012, with Sebastian Vettel becoming the youngest ever triple champion after a close fight with Ferrari rival Fernando Alonso.

"It's obviously one thing to look back on what we have achieved as a team, but I feel it all starts again from zero," said Vettel. "It will be a long year again, a very tough challenge waiting for all of us.

"I'm looking forward to that and not thinking about what happened in the last year. People expect something of us, but more than that we expect ourselves to do well."

The Renault-powered RB9 is the ninth Formula 1 single-seater created by Red Bull since taking over the Jaguar team for the start of the 2005 season.

Red Bull's new challenger has again been designed by a team led by Adrian Newey, who said at the end of last year that it was getting harder and harder to find gains for the 2013 car given the rules stability.

"It is increasingly difficult because there are no real regulations changes compared to this year and it will be the fifth season since the 2009 rule changes," Newey told AUTOSPORT.

"The field is converging and you can see how competitive it is in the fact that we had eight different winners this year."

The new Red Bull will take to the track on Tuesday at Jerez, with Vettel's team-mate Mark Webber doing the driving.

Lanzamiento del Toro Rosso STR8 (2013/02/05)

Toro Rosso has revealed its 2013 Formula 1 challenger, the STR8, on the eve of this year's first pre-season test at Jerez.

The Italian squad was a distant ninth in last year's constructors' championship, although it did finish the year strongly with six points finishes in the final nine races.

Red Bull protegees Daniel Ricciardo and Jean-Eric Vergne have been retained for their second full seasons.

"It's very emotional," said team boss Franz Tost. "The team has worked with a very high level of effort to come up with a great car and met the high expectations for this year.

"The goal is to finish sixth in the constructors' championship. The STR8 is the first car under James Key and Luca Furbatto.

"Both drivers did a really good job last year, and I'm convinced if we supply them with a good car they'll come up with surprise results."

The team has made changes behind the scenes, with former Sauber technical chief James Key arriving in September - a move team principal Franz Tost believes will usher in a 'new chapter' in the team's history.

For the seventh straight year the team will be powered by Ferrari engines.

The unveiling of the STR8 means eight teams have now revealed their 2013 challengers.

Caterham and Marussia will follow suit tomorrow, immediately before the start of Jerez testing, while Williams will take the covers of the FW35 ahead of the second test at Barcelona.

Lanzamiento del Marussia MR02 (2013/02/05)

30x9ymp.jpg


Marussia unveiled its latest Formula 1 car, the MR02, on the Jerez pits straight on the morning of the first winter test of the season.

The car is the first true product of the team's revamped technical structure, following its mid-2011 decision to split with Wirth Research and the all-CFD philosophy and to take design in-house using more traditional windtunnel techniques.

Former Benetton/Renault technical chief Pat Symonds also came on board as a consultant.

Those changes, plus the 2012 progress that took Marussia to the brink of beating Caterham to 10th place in the constructors' championship, meant plenty of optimism at the team going into the new campaign.

But on the eve of the first tests the team had to release lead driver Timo Glock for financial reasons. GP2 graduate Max Chilton is the only driver signed so far, with fellow rookie Luiz Razia heading the queue for the currently vacant second seat.

No deal has yet been done, though, and the team remains non-committal about who will drive at the test after Chilton's initial two-day stint.

Lanzamiento del Caterham CT03 (2013/02/05)

f3ysf7.jpg


Caterham joined arch-rival Marussia in launching its 2013 Formula 1 car in the Jerez pitlane in the hour before winter testing began on Tuesday morning.

The Renault-powered CT03 is an evolution of last year's car.

In its early years, Caterham began most seasons promising steady progress towards the midfield and eventual points.

But 2013 looks more like a campaign of consolidation for the Leafield-based team.

Last season it only just fended Marussia off for the lucrative 10th position in the constructors' championship standings.

And having begun F1 life with a pair of grand prix winners in its cockpits in the shape of Heikki Kovalainen and Jarno Trulli, financial realities have now forced Caterham towards less experienced drivers with financial backing.

Kovalainen followed Trulli out of the door at the end of 2012, and Caterham lines up for '13 with Marussia convert Charles Pic and promoted test driver Giedo van der Garde.

El carro más feo de la grilla es el Caterham, lejos, el Marussia parece un Indy.

El tiempo más rápido de la semana lo hizo Felipe Massa que está de vuelta (?), yo la verdad no estuve muy pendiente de eso esta semana entonces no tengo claras muchas cosas, alguien siguió eso más de cerca?

Anoche en FOX Sports 3, dieron un resumen de las pruebas de esta semana. En 10 días se reanudan las pruebas en Barcelona.
 
Lanzamiento del Williams FW35 (2013/02/19)

Williams became the final team to unveil its 2013 Formula 1 car when the FW35 was launched ahead of the second winter test on Tuesday morning.

The team had used a modified version of its 2012 design for the opening test at Jerez earlier in February, having decided to continue with the development work of the new car that is making its debut at Barcelona today.

The FW35 retains Renault power and features aggressive undercuts on its sidepods.

"Given the rule stability over the winter," said technical director Mike Coughlan, "I'm pleased with the gains that we've been able to make with this car.

"It's a better, more refined Formula One car than the FW34 and I think everyone involved in the project can feel proud of the work they've done."

The team said that, despite being an evolution of last year's car, the FW35 is 80 per cent new, with a new gearbox, new rear suspension, new radiators, a new floor, new exhausts, new bodywork and a new nose.

Williams returned to the top step of the podium after seven win-less seasons when Pastor Maldonado won last year's Spanish Grand Prix.

But inconsistent form meant this breakthrough was not reflected in the standings, with Williams only eighth in the constructors' championship at the end of the season.

Maldonado stays on for 2013, with Valtteri Bottas promoted from the reserve driver role to replace Bruno Senna in the race team.

Por ahora parece que el más rápido es Lotus, pero Red Bull no dio ni una sola vuelta de clasificación en toda la pretemporada. Solo faltan dos semanas.
 
Parece que soy el único que piensa que con la muerte de Chávez, el futuro de Pastor Maldonado en la F1 va a depender mucho de lo que pase en los próximos meses en Venezuela. ¿O estoy equivocado?
