“This circuit is one of my favorites, along with

Carlos Sainz in

After the meeting of the
World Council of the International Automobile Federationthe
FIA announced that it will increase the maximum fines that can be imposed on competitors. He did it in a surprising way, with an unexpected increase that caught everyone’s attention. For example, the new maximum fine that can be imposed in the
F1 quadrupled the previously stipulated figure. It went from a maximum of
250.000 eurosto a fine limit of
1 million euros.

Verstappen was the one who set the best time with soft tires, 1 tenth faster than
Leclerc y
Hamilton also with the softer compound. For its part,
Sainz finished in 8th place and
Fernando Alonso He finished this round of free practice in 18th position, but he was the only driver who only ran on the hard tire the entire time. It must also be taken into account that both
Aston Martin They have lost testing time due to overheating of the brakes. Great range of possibilities at the top!

The classification may be tighter than we assumed.

Mamma mia what a save from the Australian! He wanted to speed up the braking and had to correct it in the middle of the straight. Subsequently, he tried to keep the car on the asphalt, but he has to be thankful that he avoided stepping on the gravel of the escape area.

Brake problem solved? Let’s hope so. The mechanics of
Fernando Alonso They have done a great job and it seems that the overheating in the left front brake of the
Aston Martin will remain an anecdote. Nevertheless,
Stroll He got out of his car and it seems that his situation was more serious.

After listening to a somewhat strange radio
Strollwe have listened to
Pedro de la Rosa which confirms the problems of overheating in the brakes, both in the Canadian’s car and in that of the
Fernando Alonso. The Spaniard affirms that “it is not normal that this has happened so quickly.”

I was out back
Norris and the Spaniard had to countersteer, so as not to overtake the British.
Sainz commented on the radio: ”
Lando I think he didn’t see me, we were regarding to collide.” He had little more steering wheel left to avoid the driver.
Ferrari

At the moment, the pilots are recognizing the asphalt of
Austin, but no one marks time. We see how a large number of cars have brought many improvements to the
United States GP, as expected. Although none of the cars are speeding at the moment, we already see that the asphalt is very bumpy. It’s porpoising weekend!

The first free training sessions of the season begin!

Fernando Alonso He did not want to raise expectations and was very cautious before the

Circuit of the Americas (COTA).

“We have some improvements on the car, but…
Haas has a new car,
