* Lucas di Grassi ; * Much * technical " knowledge "...
"In a GP weekend, talk to most pilots, I have access to all teams, have meetings with Pirelli engineers twice a day. Accompany the training, running, from the graphics. We have a lot of information, sensor temperature. See how the graphics are wearing, and from there we have a better idea of what we need to test and what needs improving " ( Lucas di Grassi )...
* Lucas di Grassi and " testing " with * Pirelli...
For Di Grassi, testing at the track with the compounds to promote the development of their understanding of the functioning of the rubber.
"The physics of a tire is very complicated. Feel it in the car, his work in the vertical and lateral to know why he is spending too much notice small differences between the tires and pass that to the engineer in a productive manner ... And I do this job while I guide an F1 really at the limit to pass exactly what happens with the tire. "

"It's a different job from what I'm used to. Of course I would rather be running than doing development, but you can see another side that is not seen when running, "he said Di Grassi. "This development side of the tire is very, very complicated, more than I thought. So, being a worthwhile experience - I'm riding well, making several kilometers with an F1 this year. I'm getting a lot of experience trying to return to racing. "

" Interview for the @totalracebr: * Test Pilot Pirelli *: " Lucas di Grassi *- Part 2
Lucas Di Grassi: I think it ends up being on benefits because 90% of the buttons in the car that has the decision maker is the pilot. If you think during the race, the car needs some modification, can change.
Even within the technical aspect, DRS, KERS, you do not consider an anti-climax overcome a pilot who has no chance to defend his position? (Peter Chapman)
Lucas Di Grassi: I think the point is that we do not feel happy to be overcome. We're trying to win the race or in the best position and overtaking is a way to do that. Whether you go over the box or on the track, is a win for the team and for you.
As the F-1 is a laboratory of the auto industry, of what use to drive this car as mobile wing? the KERS has its reasons, fine. (Peter Chapman)
Lucas Di Grassi: Mobile Wing is a very old technology, is nothing new. But in the regulation of modern F-1, could have no moving aerodynamic part. The mobile wing already exists in commercial aircraft, in street cars who have the ability to raise and lower the spoiler. It's super common. It's just a gimmick to generate overdrive, but no new technology.
In the race of Belgium was clear that Massa had no full throttle at the exit of Eau Rouge. And now he says that the gear ratio was not adequate. Unable to move the gear ratios through the steering wheel? In trade gear is used during the race the clutch pedal or drive butterfly on the wheel triggers it? (Aguiar Ricardo Lopes).
Lucas Di Grassi: First that the gear ratio is a physical thing, like a bicycle. There's no way you change the size of the crown and pinion. That you decide before qualifying, inclusive. Sometimes, to improve the lap time, you do not optimize the speed.
For example, in Monza, the car is in a constant speed for about 500m on the line if you do not prioritize the acceleration and final velocity. That you get with a march a little shorter, then you accelerate more and for a time that is speed.
This happened with the Mass in Belgium. When he came on the line with Rosberg, had no speed to overcome, but in time he was back to best use that gear ratios than opting for a higher top speed. This happens most of the tracks, you get the so-called soft limiter, speed limiter the end of the car.
Why shifting outputs for curved and straight is not done automatically, without the interference of the pilot and in order to get the best engine performance? (Aguiar Ricardo Lopes)
Lucas Di Grassi: The F-1 does not use automatic transmission by a rule. We have come to use in the early 1990s, swappable far down, the up and was banned, not by technology but to leave the F-1 with the most expensive sport for the same reason they took control of traction to make it more difficult for the pilot and more susceptible to his ability to drive with the gears.
* Interview for the @ totalracebr: * Test * Pilot *Pirelli: Lucas di Grassi - Part 1
The F-1 teams are reading and mapping of tracks with attached equipment on vehicles to enter the normal telemetry, like Ferrari will one day weekend in Monza and collect data? There is this and is allowed by the FIA? (Du Cardim)
Lucas Di Grassi: Most teams have been through these 20 tracks, 30 times. So they have the data they need.According to the media came out, you're trading partner Hermann Tilke circuits to reshape and reform in Brazil. I wonder: If he has raced in all circuits here, talked to pilots who have thousands of laps on the track in Brazil and talked to motorcycle riders. (Du Cardim)
Lucas Di Grassi: I did not run on all circuits in Brazil, but ran into several circuits of the world in various categories. The objective of this partnership is to have a close contact with Tilke reforms he is doing in the Brazilian circuit, not only for me but for all Brazilian drivers are in line with changes to be made. This, to change not only an architect, but I'm representing the pilots.
For example, the chicane Interlagos was made through without consulting anyone and I think that if I had a group of pilots working to find a solution for that chicane, would something different. They put a chicane too high and you can not use bike.
I have to have the greatest interest, the idea of the circuit will be used for motorcycle also have a guy who understands that to say what is interesting or dangerous for him.
Diego Nunes, when he was leaving the F-3 and going to the Italian GP2, said that the difference in braking and curve between the two is immense. With the evolution of the GP2 cars the difference between them and an F-1 on the same things (brake and grip on the curve) is as great as between the GP2 and the lower categories, or for example a tip of the GP2 car is in a level very close to the F1, perhaps better than the F1 teams dwarf? (Marcelo Rezende)
Lucas Di Grassi: The braking distance is proportional to the time back. This provided a car that is third on the grid of F-1 to what is ultimately a GP2 car, the slower the car, the longer braking it.The pilots association, the GPDA has restricted its action to the safety of the F-1 in general, or she has a role, a voice with the FIA with regard to technical and sporting regulations?
Lucas Di Grassi: The GPDA today have a voice, like the time I ran. I remember it was much discussed at Monza that put zebras. Discussed how to put that zebra does not take off the car.The protective helmet placed on the GPDA was discussed for a long time after the accident of Felipe [Massa in Hungary in 2009] and Schumacher in Abu Dhabi [head-on collision in 2010].

* Grand * Prix of * Macau - 1954
One afternoon, on a coffee table, a group of friends decided to do something different in Macau .. a car contest, which at the time were not more than 400 in the Territory. This is how the Swiss came from Paul du tois Hog Kong spend a week-end in Macau. Since the spot what could be the route, Paul du tois classified immediately as Grand Prix (6.26 km) and better than the Monaco.
Still one of the biggest tourist attractions in Macao.
* GP - Brazil *...
The Brazil Grand Prix Formula 1 takes place since 1972 and is part of the Formula 1 championship since 1973. It happens every year at the Interlagos circuit (or Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace), located in the neighborhood namesake of the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo.
The circuit as well as Marina Bay Street Circuit Singapore and Istanbul Park is one of the few circuits on the F1 calendar now to have a counter-clockwise.
The Brazil Grand Prix Formula 1 in 2007 was the most watched international sporting event in the world, second only to the Super Bowl in the United States, but how it is over 90% of the audience from the United States does not is recognized as an international event.
In 2008, for the third time in history and the first with a Brazilian, a pilot has the opportunity to decide the title at home. Felipe Massa steered his Ferrari into the title that was guaranteed until the final seconds, when Lewis Hamilton passed German Timo Glock and thus became the youngest champion. For ten times the Brazil Grand Prix was won by a Brazilian driver, three of them won by Emerson Fittipaldi, and remains the Brazilian driver won the most in Brazil.

* History of *Ironman...
The Ironman was born as a crazy gamble to know the limits of human endurance, until then the most acceptable of madness was the 42,195 meters of the legendary Greek Pheidippides marathon.
It all started around the mug full of beer at Brasserie Primo Brewery, Honolulu, Hawaii State Capital, located on the island of Oahu. It was a dozen sailors aged between 30 and 40 years, drowned in beer the bitterness of defeat in a relay race super fast, which they had been beaten by young mariners. Enraged by the defeat, they wondered how they could prove they were tougher and still capable of winning the most young people, which proves that Hawaiian was the greatest challenge? Were the 3,800 meters swimming the traditional Waikiki Rough Water Swim? Or 180 km cycling the famous Around the Island Bike Race? Or the endless marathon of 42.195 km of Honolulu? A sea captain, 42, John Collins, stood up and issued the challenge: The toughest competition would be one that encompasses the three most difficult tests of the island together on the same day. Everyone laughed, as he added: "I know 11 people who could go all the way." The idea made its way, and some months later that evening in October 1977, more precisely on February 18, 1978, 15 men, mostly runners or swimmers showed up for the start of the first Ironman history.
They could not imagine they were writing an important page, the first, indeed, the story of a new sport in a few years would spread throughout the world and win millions. A taxi driver in Honolulu, John Haller, was the first iron man to complete the race with a time of 11 hours 46 minutes and 58 seconds.
Of the 15 who started in Waikiki Beach, 12 completed it. Proof that no one believed it possible he had found his name and his first hero. In 1982 the fifth edition of the competition won a sponsor, Bud Light. She won dimensions and today only 1,500 athletes can participate as the only proof of the world to have a selective.
The Ironman is a critical and commercial success, the largest "Best-Seller" triathlon, the reference test as a model of organization, joy and distance. It was precisely because of the Ironman, and could not be otherwise, the rise of the triathletes Tupiniquins and after them the first evidence.
The triathlon in its initial release, ie, the Ironman has given rise to new forms and distance.
Specifically in the triathlon, in addition to the classic distance Ironman, Half Ironman currently have: (1,900 meter swim, 90 km cycling and 21 km running), the Olympic distance: (1,500 meter swim, 40 km cycling and 10 km running) and Shot-Triathlon: (750 meter swim, 20 km cycling and 5 km running) in addition to the modalities Aquathlon and Biathlon.
Many Formula 1 drivers like the marathons to improve your physical condition.

* History of * Sports for the * Disabled...
The history of sport for people with disabilities (PPD) began in the town of Aylesbury, England. At the request of the British government, the neurologist Ludwig Guttmann, who had fled the persecution of Jews in Nazi Germany, created the National Center for Spinal Cord Injuries at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, to treat men and women wounded in the English army in World War II.
Although already promote sports activities for disabled people, especially in England, the United States and Germany was in 1948 that this concept was an official with the achievement of Stoke Mandeville Games.

* Benefits of long *runs...
1) Involve your muscle fibers with capillaries. The capillaries are the smallest blood vessels. Typically a number of capillaries surrounding each muscle fiber. They are the transportation system for the cell, bringing oxygen and fuel into, and waste carbon dioxide out. Long runs increase the number of capillaries per muscle fiber, which improves the efficiency of transport.
2) Carry oxygen with more myoglobin. Myoglobin in muscle cells have a similar function to hemoglobin in the blood - carries oxygen from the cell membrane to mitochondria. Long runs increase the amount of myoglobin in muscle fibers, so more oxygen can reach the mitochondria to produce energy.
3) Make mighty mitochondria. The mitochondria are the aerobic energy factories in cells. Long runs increase the number and size of mitochondria in muscle fibers. With more mitochondria, you can produce more energy aerobically, and maintain a race pace faster.
4) Increase aerobic enzyme activity. The enzymes in mitochondria accelerate the aerobic energy production. Long runs increase the activity of these enzymes, which improves the efficiency of the mitochondria. So you not only have more and bigger plants, but also more efficient.
5) Fill the tank with glycogen. Long runs teach your muscles to store more glycogen. Glycogen is the storage form of carbohydrates, and when you run long distances slow down. So how long runs lead to greater glycogen storage? Running long distances uses up the glycogen in the muscles. Our ancestors were at risk of being eaten when they ran out of glycogen. Fortunately, the depletion of glycogen stimulates the muscles to store more to prevent future shortages. Once the faster you run more glycogen you burn, run your long runs at a reasonable pace is the most efficient way to deplete your glycogen stores (and hence stimulate the muscles to store more) than jogging.
6) Burn more fat. Long runs not only increase your ability to store glycogen, they also allow your muscles to conserve glycogen by burning more fat. As you increase your endurance training, you rely more on fat than carbohydrates at a certain speed. As a result, your glycogen stores last longer. In a marathon, it means that the "wall" moves ever closer to the finish line.
7) Change the muscle fibers. The higher the percentage of slow twitch fibers in your muscles, the better your chances of success in the marathon. Well, for those not genetically endowed with a higher percentage of slow twitch muscle fibers, there is good news. Long runs give your fast twitch muscle fibers more characteristics of slow twitch. So, while sprinters will never be world-class marathoners, with sufficient training the fast-twitch fibers will gain some of the beneficial attributes of slow contraction.

* Di Grassi hypothesis for the Peugeot...
According to information we have now come out, the Brazilian Lucas Di Grassi had the opportunity to test the Peugeot 908 at the Estoril Autodrome during the visit of the French factory team traced the Portuguese.
According to the site dailysportscar.com, the pilot "canary" has tested the car at Estoril and is a chance for the Peugeot factory team next season. The same source writes that French brand can again choose drivers with a history of Formula 1. Remember that Peugeot Sport tested Kimi Raikkonnen in the past month of August.
Pedro Lamy, Nicolas Minassian and Alex Wurz have their places in the Peugeot Sport at risk for next year, and the continuity of the Portuguese driver at this point is little more than a mirage after Olivier Quesnel, Head of the sporting activities of the PSA, have blamed the worker as the defeat of the latest edition of the Peugeot in the Le Mans 24 hours.
Lucas di Grassi, who last year was the Virgin F1 race driver, this year has been one of the pilots in the service of Pirelli to the development of chewing of the 2011 Italian manufacturer of tires.
