Wonders of motivation from Ferrari

Show the wonders of motivation, leadership Ferrari literally forced its pilots to win a home Grand Prix in Italy. One of the contenders for the title Lewis Hamilton is not even got to the finish. Russian Vitaly Petrov took 13th place. It was not a day Petrova. No Friday or Saturday or Sunday. And, apparently, in the Renault knew what awaited the team in Monza. At least Vitali in any of his interviews did not radiate confidence that he and his partner to succeed in anything like good results. Monza - highways, where most of the occupied lines, but this is not exactly what you need to present bolides Renault. Besides, if the move to particulars for Petrova's debut season route "Formula 1" are divided on the principle of "symbol - do not know." With Monza Vitaly mark is not hearsay, but the relationship with the Italian track of Russians do not add up: the results of its range between the second and twelfth place, generously diluting gatherings. Despite the fact that the Italian Grand Prix - is, above all, the battle engine, which have almost no chance of Renault, Monza, according to the manager Oksana Kosachenko racer, was to be his career defining. One way or another, but the case from the outset had no luck - nor Petrova, nor his team-mate Robert Kubica. In free practice Pole stability was eight or nine, and Russian - was hanging in the middle of the second ten. At the same qualifications and Vitali did deprived himself of chances to fight in the race for higher ground - barely appeared on the track, he blocked Timo Glock, who eventually took his rightful 21-place, and a Russian won five seats on the fine grid. In the second session Petrov has ended, but the final 15-place gave him only 20 th place at the start. But the main heroes of the weekend were the pilots Ferrari. Yesterday the Italian stage of the management team informed the public about its desire to surrender and begin to prepare the car for next season is if the Scuderia drivers will not be able to show decent results on the home track. A good result, if someone does not understand, believe only in a Ferrari victory. The motivation for lovers of Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa that yet. Where have you seen that international stars, long before the end of the championship under the giggles colleagues turned into test? Whether the motivation is so helped the pilots, then the team with the bones laid down for the home segment, but Ferrari has justified all the hopes of their fans. Passed Pilot Pilot Place Team Points 1 Webber Red Bull 187 2 Hamilton McLaren Alonso Ferrari 182 3 166 4 165 5 Button McLaren Vettel Red Bull Ferrari 163 6 124 7 Massa Rosberg Mercedes 112 8 108 9 Kubica Renault Schumacher Mercedes 46 10 Sutil Force India 45. .. 13 Renault 19 Petrov all started with a surprise: almost the first time in the season, Red Bull, despite his speed, was removed from the draw pole position. For the first places on the grid fighting Ferrari and McLaren. And the winner in this battle came Fernando Alonso, who took second bypassed Jenson Button a little more than one-tenth of a second. Third in qualifying was Felipe Massa. Duet bosom "friends" from Red Bull, show the 4 th and 6 th results, "broke" Lewis Hamilton, before the Italian Grand Prix - the main contender for victory in the 2010 season. However, hopes of a young Briton did not prevent the uprising Scuderia from the ashes has been stifled. At the very beginning of the race, unlike Alonso, Button, passing forward, Hamilton quickly got to the fourth place, and immediately tried to improve their situation. Briton tried to bypass the internal trajectory of the chicane and Massa front wheel stuck in the rear wheel car Ferrari. Italian machinery did not disappoint, but the suspension arms race car McLaren broke down after a few seconds, and the battle for Lewis over on the roadside. Vitaly Petrov is on the first lap in his own style played as many as five seats, but eventually buried in the "back" Algersuari to Toro Rosso, who suddenly appeared for the Russian impassable obstacle. The more Vital detained him, the more it lagged behind the pilots, who were in the points. During the race he managed to move to 10 th place, but the opportunity for a decisive step, he did not have. Cup Designers Place Team Points 1 Red Bull 350 2 McLaren 347 3 290 4 Mercedes Ferrari 158 5 ... Renault 127 A led the peloton actively shared glasses. Do not have time to die down recent scandals in the field command of tactics as Red Bull played the scene "Ay-ay-ay, it seems I have a problem." Vettel, was ahead of his running mate, but already lost hope for the title, report the problem in the engine by radio command, passing forward Webber continues to struggle for the title. In this case, Sebastian still continue the race. Change at the head of the peloton when it happened only once. But it proved decisive. Button, never managed to break away at a respectful distance, went to the pit stop. Alonso, who was walking trail made it to the next round. However, over one lap the Spaniard managed to create for itself a backlog that after visiting the boxes, he "flew out" right in front of the defending champion. Full of happiness left to the copilot Ferrari - Felipe Massa - ahead of Button and fill out the "golden double". However, neither the speed nor the time to do the Brazilian was not enough. Thus, the first three, finish the race, just repeated the best three on the basis of qualifications. Leader of the championship was again Mark Webber on the last round in a bitter struggle for the sixth position ahead of Nico Hulkenberg. He descended into Italy in the second round of Hamilton, he is now ahead by five points. Alonso thanks to his victory rose to third place in the championship, 16 points behind the Hamilton and a 21 - by Webber. Insurmountable under the current scoring system, the gap can not be named. Petrov, finishing 13-m points not scored, and still occupies the 13th place in the championship. What conclusions did manual Renault on the results of speech Vitali in Italy, is difficult to judge. This season the track was the last European and the latter familiar to Petrov. Next he will move almost to the touch. However, not a fact that in the last race five races he did not pick up any points. Except, perhaps, the Grand Prix of Singapore, is also famous for its high-speed sections. "Formula 1".
