Marcus Ericsson sofre acidente de bicicleta na Tailândia após atropelar uma galinha

Marcus Ericsson hits chicken in Thailand while riding a bicycle
O piloto sueco Marcus Ericsson, que está atualmente na equipe Sauber de Fórmula 1, foi até a Tailândia no último final de semana, para realizar um treinamento ciclístico, acompanhado de seu preparador físico.

Enquanto estava sobre duas rodas e impulsionando uma pedivela, Marcus foi surpreendido na estrada por uma... galinha! Ericsson atingiu o animal a 45 km/h. O resultado da colisão? Várias escoriações pelo corpo e uma bicicleta destruída.

Este vídeo da Sauber feito em 1998 é do tempo em que a Fórmula 1 ainda tinha mullets e tabaco, mas já tinha... vergonha alheia!

HILARIOUS! F1 slapstick with Johnny Herbert (from 1998) - Sauber F1 Team Video Thumbnail
Há 17 anos, em algum lugar na Itália... mais precisamente, na Pista de Fiorano, de propriedade da Ferrari, a equipe suiça Sauber criou um vídeo que, bem, pode fazer com que você nunca deseje ter sido Johnny Herbert.

Bem, talvez eu tenha exagerado, mas que este esquete para o programa "Benissimo", da emissora suiça SRF, um verdadeiro episódio de slapstick, termo mais conhecido aqui como "comédia pastelão", fará você sentir vergonha alheia do piloto, ah, com certeza fará.

Sauber F1 Team says: "don't eat and drive".


Pit stops are serious business. But not during the summer break. Sauber F1 Team.


Veja o acidente de Jules Bianchi em Suzuka pela câmera de um fã que estava na arquibancada


Um vídeo amador, feito por um torcedor, no autódromo de Suzuka, no Japão, captou o que as câmeras de televisão não conseguiram: o momento da batida do francês Jules Bianchi, da equipe Marussia.

Após cerca de um minuto de vídeo, enquanto o Sauber do alemão Adrian Sutil era retirado da área de escape, Bianchi veio em alta velocidade e atingiu em cheio a traseira do trator.

De acordo com as regras da Federação Internacional de Automobilismo, quando há fiscais trabalhando na área de escape, deve ser acionada a bandeira amarela localizada, indicando que os pilotos diminuam a velocidade naquele trecho. No entanto, um fiscal de pista aparece agitando a bandeira verde, sinalizando que aquele trecho da pista estava liberado.

A corrida foi encerrada após o acidente do francês, que foi levado para o hospital. O boletim médico desta segunda-feira informa que Bianchi segue em estado crítico, mas estável.

2012 Sauber C31 - Pista di Fiorano - Simona de Silvestro - Onboard


Test in Fiorano – Simona de Silvestro debuts in a Sauber F1 car

26.04.2014 - Fiorano. Today, Simona de Silvestro completed her first day of testing in a Sauber Formula One car on the Ferrari test track in Fiorano. She completed a total of 112 laps in a two year old Sauber C31 (without KERS and with special tyres from Pirelli). Simona used the opportunity to become familiar with the specifics of a Formula One car and was able to improve constantly during the day.

Circuit: Fiorano Circuit / 2.997 km
Driver: Simona de Silvestro
Weather: Overcast, sunny, air 16-21 °C, track 19-30 °C
Chassis / engine: C31 / Ferrari
Laps today: 112 laps, 336 km

Paul Russell, Test Engineer:
"In the morning, Simona went out for baseline runs. She drove at a reasonable pace, getting the tyres and the brakes to work and taking it easy finding the limits. Simona then drove short runs. Before the lunch break she did a run on new tyres which was at a good performance level. In the morning we achieved even more than we had planned. For Simona it was really about learning and building the pace. In the afternoon she continued doing shorter runs, which gave us time to look into the data and discuss things in order for her to get a better understanding of the car. We also did some set-up changes. At the end of the day we used a couple of new sets of tyres, which is always interesting for new drivers in order to experience how far they can push. Simona did a very solid job today. It was immediately clear that she is an experienced driver. It was as good a start in a Formula One car as you could hope for, and you couldn't really ask for more today."

Simona de Silvestro:
"Although it's something very special to drive a Formula One car, I was not too nervous in the morning. I was more focused on what my job would be. But, after completing the installation lap, I realised that this was my first lap in a Formula One car, and that this was something really special. What impressed me most was the downforce of the car and the braking. When I did my first lap the brakes were cold, but even then the decelaration was beyond what I had experienced before. The g-forces are significantly higher compared to what I was used to in IndyCar. Overall, I'm happy with my first day in a Formula One car. I concentrated mainly on understanding the tyres and finding out how to get the best out of them. And with every outing I learned more about the behaviour of the car. I can feel now where there is more potential and how I can use it. Physically I feel quite good, which is definitely a result of my preparation in recent months. I have been training really hard and this paid off. I can't wait to get into the car again tomorrow. The feeling you get driving a Formula One car is just awesome!"

What comes next
Tomorrow Affiliated driver Simona de Silvestro will again be behind the wheel of the Sauber C31-Ferrari in Fiorano.

O que mudou nos volantes dos carros de Fórmula 1 em vinte anos


Em poucas décadas, a eletrônica invadiu os carros, tanto os de rua como os de competição, tornando-os mais resistentes a falhas e mais precisos.

E isso não foi só na Fórmula 1, mas também em todas as outras categorias de monopostos, protótipos e carros de competição construídos a partir das versões de rua.

Para demonstrar isso, a Sauber fez um infográfico e um vídeo mostrando a evolução dos volantes de seus carros de Fórmula 1, desde o modelo C13, de 1993, até o modelo C32, de 2013.
