Archive for the ‘F1 Crash’ Category

Formula 1 is a massive money company, and there is no reason why you cannot get your share…

The Canadian Grand Prix 2008 had a most unusual crash. It’s a race which does tend to make incident, you’ll find some relatively tight corners. The 2007 race produced a magnificent crash which numerous feared had killed the driver, but in reality he was just battered and bruised. This year the on track incidents were honestly minor skirmishes with several walls.

1 incident had brought out the safety auto, which slows all the racing vehicles down to ensure that the track marshalls can clear the track. Drivers use this opportunity to go to the pit lane to obtain fuel or tyres.

Sadly Lewis Hamilton, new British ace on the scene, did not pay attention towards the red lights stopping cars from leaving the pit lane even though the safety auto passed. two drivers in front of Hamilton were duly waiting, but the error by Hamilton meant he drove straight into the back of them, taking both himself and his championship contender out from the race.

So how do you generate income from this? Well, you write about the incident to get the traffic from the F1 fans on the net, and reckon me you can find plenty of them! They lap up information and facts they can obtain, and are a lot more than pleased to become told they can generate profits from the sport!

Then you direct that visitors to a internet site you profit from – it might be an affiliate internet site selling shirts, posters or other memorabilia. It may well be a Formula 1 weblog that you simply place adverts on, or it may well be to an ebook for sale.

You can do this for all of the races on the calendar, and then you can use the same method throughout the off season, together with the launch of new vehicles, driver line ups and so on.

You will find a fantastic deal of methods to earn dollars from the recognition of Formula 1, plus the the crash such as the a single in Canada is really a best tool to tap into it.

Motorcycle racing is one of world’s most well loved sport lines beside soccer or maybe F1 racing. It’s perhaps the most thrilling form of sport. It offers high speed-straight line, cornering sped, knee down action,  and of course, shocking crashing racer tragedies. There are so many motorcycle racing events, let’s say; motoGP, which races prototype motorcycles manufactured by hugest world manufacturers such as Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki (though Kawasaki doesn’t take part in this current motoGP season), and Ducati; WSBK, AMA Superbike, British Superbike, these last three events race mass-produced literbikes, you know, Honda CBR 1000, Yamaha R1, Kawasaki Ninja ZX10, Suzuki GSX 1000, Ducati 1098, and two new European challengers, BMW S1000, and Aprillia RSV4, yet the 600cc motorcycles which also take part. Seemingly, but, motoGP and WSBK are the two most well loved among all. These two events certainly have different requirements, but the most distinctive differences are in the motorcycles racing in those two events. As mentioned above, in motoGP, there are prototype motorcycle from largest manufacturers. It mens that, the bikes are meant to race in circuit! The bikes are built in purpose of circuit racing, and obviously they are not for sale! We will not ever be able to own one of them. Honda RC212V, Yamaha M1, Suzuki GSV-R, Kawasaki ZXRR, and Ducati Desmosedici GP, are racing-built prototype motorcycle we won’t own once! This matter makes motoGP is the most prestigious motorcycle racing event. While in WSBK (World Superbike) Championship, we will see more familiar motorcycles that we might see often in street, dealer, offered and ridden by youth or any sporting motorcycle maniacs! In the literbike (1000cc) class, there are Honda CBR 1000RR, Yamaha R1, Kawasaki Ninja ZX10R, Suzuki GSX-R1000, Ducati 1098R, BMW S1000 RR, Aprilia RSV4, and KTM 1190 RC8 R in Superstock class. While in the middle size (600cc), there are Honda CBR 600RR, Yamaha R6, Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R, Suzuki GSX-R600 (doesn’t take part in current season), and Triumph Dayton 675. All of these bikes are mass-produced, we can own them if we want to. MotoGP and WSBK have their own fans. People who loved motoGP may not like WSBK, and vice versa, but, it doesn’t mean that it’s impossible to like both of them. People who like the highest pride may like motoGP more than WSBK, while people who like a category, a class of its own may like WSBK than motoGP. For me personally, WSBK is much more fascinating than motoGP. It is because the bikes are mass-produced, we can own them. I like motoGP also of course, but it’s always not as enthusiastic as when I WSBK. I like motorcycle world since I was 14, and well, here I just want to share what I reckon about these two motorcycle racing events. What about you?

The Gran Turismo 5 Release Date has now been confirmed as 2nd November 2010. PlayStation 3 racing fans can now look forward to a GT5 certain release date and apparently it will fully support 3D gaming, along with a raft of other new PlayStation 3 titles.

At the moment gamers have Gran Turismo 5 Prologue which, as the title suggests, is a prologue to the full game release. Like God of War 3, it will only be available on the Playstation 3. It has ground breaking graphics which reduce the blur between game creativity and reality. The “Prologue” suffix was also used for the Gran Turismo 4 Prologue which was released one year before the full version of Gran Turismo 4. If you like racing simulation games, then this is one is shaping up to be the best ever despite the long wait! Indicentally its thought delays may have been because its been developed for the pc platform!

Register for a copy at the Gran Turismo 5 offer

Graphics:

Developed by Polyphony Digital, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is a nice sampling of what current and new game players can expect to see in the full version of the game. Just to give you an thought just how realistic this game is, the developers obtained CAD data from the actual car manufacturers and each car is modelled to exact precision. They collaborated with major car manufacturers to replicate the exact driving behaviour of each car. The development team took fantastic pains to take 30,000 pictures of just ONE racetrack over a 2 month time period to enhance the realism of the racing experience. And who knows what has been done since because it’s taking an eternity for Polyphony to release this game. The final vehicle count for Gran Turismo 5 is over 1,000 cars and will feature 20 different locations and 70 different tracks.

Online gaming:

The Playstation is renowned for not taking full advantage of online gaming capability unike the Xbox 360. But Gran Turismo 5 attempts to break that mould with the ability to race up to 16 cars simultaneously online. All you need is a broadband connection and you are all set to pit your driving skills against fellow Gran Turismo wanna be champions worldwide. The main caveat with the online feature is that if the person who initiates the race has a slow internet connection then the visual quality is compromised or the game simply ends. Other than that it works well and is a welcome feature. Online support through the PlayStation Network also includes an open lobby, text/voice chat, private room, online photo album, online replay album, and the ability to export replays to YouTube.

Gameplay:

The “in-car view” is a new feature in this game that allows players to view the inside of their cars. Drivers get a realistic interior dashboard view, featuring full driver animation, reflecting rear-view mirrors, wing mirrors, real time inside lighting effects and working dashboard gauges. You can even look around the cockpit using the D- pad or any compatible PS3 steering wheel. Incidentally this is something that will be possible with the new Microsoft Kinect device used with the Forza driving game.

Make changes to the AI difficulty, braking, traction control, tyres etc. Cars can be driven from four different viewpoints – with 3 camera angles if you use a excellent quality compatible steering wheel and there are 5 driving wheel simulators to choose from.

Gran Turismo 5 will be the first Gran Turismo game in the series’ history to show in an optional Stereoscopic-3D resolution. Also Go-Karting will also make its first ever appearance in any Gran Turismo game to date with its inclusion in GT5.

The hard races are reported to be hard. You have to progress your way from the back of a 16 car pack to win a race consisting of cars of similar performance to your own. The other cars never crash so you have to place in some effort to beat them.

Dealerships: where the player can buy a new car using his Event Race earned credits. Various models from world well-known automakers are available for buy in the showroom. Some automakers have their own Event race consisting of a one make race for a specific model. Brand related News are regularly provided through online updates.

Gran Turismo 5 car list

Cars will be available in two classes – premium and standard. The standard series will be kitted out with very rudimentary interiors and headlights. Cars in the premium class will have far more detailed interiors and exteriors and high and low beam headlights.

The car list is rumoured to be well over 1,000 but its not clear if this number will fid its way into the final game. Bugatti and Lamborghini car will be included for the 1st time after been originally part of Gran Turismo PSP. Also the new “gullwing” Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG are to be included. The new 458 manufactured by Ferrari is going to feature in the game as is the McLaren F1 road car. The Jaguar XJ13 race car was only a prototype and was never manufactured but will be included in the game as well as the Ford Mark IV and the Ferrari 330 P4. Surprisingly, electric cars are supposed to feature.

All in all, Gran Turismo 5 Prolog is shaping up to be one of the best game releases of 2010 and will hopefully give all gaming fans everything they look for in a driving simulation game. Roll on the Gran Turismo 5 Release Date!

Ride Safely As It May Be the Last

It was just a month ago that I had spoken to my friend Rizal. He was all excited about his new ride. A Yamaha R1 which produces a massive 180 horses. It is also a very new model which is manufactured in year 2009. I was a small jealous of him getting to ride this pony as compared to mine which is a Ducati 900ss. Anyway, I was pleased for him as a fellow Superbiker.

Ever wondered what is a 180 horsies bike will feel like? Well, let’s compare it to our very own Proton Perdana V6. This car produces an equivalent of 170 horse powers. When we do the maths, a Proton Perdana weighs around 1700 kgs as compared to my friend’s ride weighing a small more than 180kgs. When we calculate the power to weight ratios of these vehicles, the car will only have 100 horse powers per tonne as compared to the R1′s power to weight ratio of 1000 horsepower per tonne. This will mean that if the bike is a car, it will be a monster car having a massive horse power. If compared apple to apple, bike to car, the Yamaha R1 is 10 times more powerful than the Proton Perdana V6.

Now, let’s compare the R1 to a formula one car. The rated horse power for Alonso’s Ferrari Formula F1 car is 800 horsepower weighing around 800 kgs. When we do the maths again, the power to weight ratio of a Formula 1 car is a massive 1000 horsepower per tonne. Compared to my friend’s R1 again, both Yamaha R1 and the Ferrari Formula 1 car have got a similar power to weight ratio. Which means what a Formula 1 car driver feels upon acceleration can be felt by an R1 rider particularly people who rides superbikes. We are talking about G-Force here.

Bare this in mind that a Formula 1 car cannot be bought off showrooms. But a superbike can be bought off showrooms. A Formula 1 car will only be driven by a driver possessing a super licence which is sanctioned by the FIA to drive the monstrous car. FIA had imposed such strict rules that even Michael Schumacher, the former world Formula 1 champion could not get to drive in the 2009 Formula 1 season because of a neck ache.  As for a superbike, all the rider needs is a “B” Full license to ride the beast. To attain the license, all the rider needs to do is to prove to JPJ (Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan) officer that he or she is capable of handling the 2 wheeled beasts. He or she will be tested on how to brake, turn a figure 8 and show some hand signs when turning. It is a far weep when compared to a Formula 1 driver to a Superbike rider in terms of qualifications. And they both will need to handle similar powered vehicles when compared apple to apple and power to power.

I am not feeling sour or questioning my friend’s capabilities of handling his bike. But the fact that this 1000 horsepower per tonne bike of his did cost him and his wife’s life. His wife was riding pillion when they crashed on the North-South highway somewhere around Ayer Keroh, Malacca, Malaysia. They passed away on the spot. It was devastating to hear about this incident as both husband and wife are fantastic people and fantastic friends to be with. Imagine the devastation caused to Rizal and wife’s families. Especially to their daughter who is only 3 years ancient who have lost both her parents at a young tender age?

For those who are considering of getting a Superbike or have already owned one, please remember that sometimes we may forget that riding a Superbike is as close as to driving a Formula 1 car. And these vehicles demands our absolute respect when in or on them. Be reminded that we are riding an equivalent of a Formula 1 car and making the slightest mistake may cost our life dearly. So, the next time, other than making sure your bike is bright and all ready for that glamorous outing, remember that speed kills. It will take us Superbikers to break the Malaysian speed limit of 110 km/h in less than 4 seconds at only in the second gear and sometimes the first gear. The absolute respect for your bike is a priority.

With the sound and shine of the bike, like a knight in bright armour, heading against the wind and defying the laws of physics, please remember this: “it is better late than never”. As the power that these Superbikes generate are so fantastic that it won’t be shy to give you your last ride if respect is not adhered.

Presentation

Upon starting the bold you will be questioned to install an update, an amend that accomplished the game. I absolutely acknowledge developers that amend their amateur afterwards release, abnormally if they add appearance like bays abutment and custom soundtrack support. Afterwards all the updates are accomplished you will get a admirable capital awning with a annoying ancillary agenda that psp games it’s not as able as we’d accept liked. Once I removed all active aids, I’m a active god (in my dreams), I loaded Spa and started in my admired Ferrari so far the F430. I was aghast at aboriginal with the graphics. It’s not as appealing as GT5 or F1 championship edition, but it’s not animal either. What is animal is the complete of crashes. Hitting added cars (not carefully of course!) consistently leads to a complete agnate to a can getting befuddled away. It can’t complete like that in absolute life. Afterwards I got over the antecedent shock of the abominable can complete and characterless cartoon I noticed a blind apple movement. Leafs fell on the clue and flew abroad as I collection appear it in my Ferrari F430. It was a claiming to accumulate my absorption on the alley as I saw the world, in a way, go. In the approaching I’d like added movement like humans affective around, planes and army continuing up and cheering. Maybe this is something for the next PlayStation as this bearing isn’t able abundant yet it seems.

Gameplay

While active the F430 with my G25 it reminded me of a Top Gear episode. During this adventure it was said how abundant fun this car was to drive and how abundant the administration was. And I can say they’re right! The car was acutely fun to drive. You can feel the car oversteer and understeer, braking absolutely acquainted like you were endlessly a 300 km/h cool car, clashing added titels like Grand Turismo. The bold has a few modes that should accumulate you entertained. Modes like online play, quick race, time aisle and a career mode. Doing these things will accord you cards, I still don’t apperceive what these do, and the appropriate to buy new Ferrari cars. You can use the bold credits you buy from contest to buy them. Cars alter from archetypal Ferraris and new avant-garde Ferraris. I bought maybe 3 psp games Ferraris on the aboriginal 2 hours that I played. Credits are calmly bought but the appropriate to buy new Ferraris aren’t always. Be able to play several canicule afore getting able to get your base in the Ferrari Enzo FXX. A car that is consistently adapted with new aero bales and added improvement. In actuality I anticipate this car could accretion the aboriginal abode in Top Gear’s baton board. When I played about with the cars I noticed that anniversary Ferrari feels different. The 550 Maranello feels abundant in axis and beneath abiding beneath braking compared to the added huge-ticket and newer Ferrari F430 Scuderia. This is a acceptable affair because some developers try to bluff by giving you 100 cars that all feel the same.

Conclusion

I adulation this game. The cartoon ability not be GT5 superior but the active physics are way better. And it doesn’t yield System 3 three years to accomplish a chase game.

Don’t buy this bold if you are accommodating to absorb 60 bucks because the aftereffect Cool car claiming is just about the corner.

After the Canadian Grand Prix, the Formula One community was buzzing with two subjects which were both centered on Formula One rookie drivers. One of which is the win posted by rookie Lewis Hamilton who was driving for McLaren. The young British racing driver set another record for extending his streak of podium finishes in his first season to six while taking his maiden win.

The other issue being talked about on Formula One circles is the unfortunate fate of BMW Sauber’s rookie driver Robert Kubica. While the Polish driver started his tour of duty for BMW Sauber last year replacing Jacques Villeneuve, this year marks his first full season as a Formula One driver.

The season though will not be complete for the first Polish national to drive for a Formula One team since doctors did not give him permission to drive at the United States Grand Prix. The disapproval came even after Kubica insisted that he is alert, clear-minded and ready to drive his Formula One car.

The extent of injuries that Kubica sustained is surprisingly small compared to the fate of his Formula One car. The car was totaled which no BMW repair manual can place back together. After the crash, what was left of the car is only the cockpit that Kubica occupied.

The crash came after Kubica clipped Jarno Trulli’s Toyota Formula One car. The impact forced Kubica’s car into the grass on the side of the tracks where the car’s front was elevated thus making Kubica unable to steer or brake. His car then slammed into the barrier after the hairpin curve of the track and then he barrel-rolled across the track and was once again slamming into the barricade.

For the seriousness of his accident, Kubica seemed to be making light of it at times when he joked that “I have seen it live when I was there. ” His safety was assured after he was released out of the hospital less than 24 hours after the accident. He only suffered a minor concussion and a sprained ankle.

The Polish driver pointed out that he is fine and would be able to drive for the United States Grand Prix saying: “I have bit of pain in ankle first day, but now it’s 100 percent OK. So no headache, nothing like that. We have to wait for the doctors of FIA and Indy here to give me OK. But I feel like nothing happened. ”

After the choice that he could not participate at the United States Grand Prix, Kubica has this to say: “I felt absolutely ready to race. I respect the choice. It was made because there is too much risk to let me race in this Grand Prix in case I have an impact so soon after Montreal. I will go home now. ”

Taking Kubica’s place at the United States Grand Prix is the 19-year ancient Sebastian Vettel who will be making his first appearance driving in a Formula One race. The German Formula One test driver has the unfortunate distinction of being the youngest driver to be fined in a Formula One car. For the upcoming race, he has this to say: “Of course, I am looking forward to my first F1 race, but I wish it had come under different circumstances. It’s never nice if a teammate can’t drive because he had an accident. ”

After two races in North American metropolises, Formula One is reviving its taste for the countryside as it reaches halfway point this season. The drivers will line up in Magny-Cours on the 1st July to vie for the most-coveted title in racing. For the BMW Sauber team, the goal is to get both cars to the end line.

After Robert Kubica’s horrific crash in Montreal and after a number of unwanted retirements, the team intends to go full throttle at Magny-Cours to take advantage of the circuit’s offers. A crash and a retirement saw the BMW Sauber leave North America feeling small-changed. The team expects an illuminating race likened to BMW tail lights. “The Magny-Cours circuit has a lot to offer – two tough chicanes, a high-speed section and some slow corners. I’m looking forward to the race weekend. The track is demanding, I like the countryside around the circuit and you tend to eat very well in France. There’s not a lot going on in Magny-Cours and it gets its honest share of criticism as a result. But I like a bit of peace and silent now and again,” said Nick Heidfeld.

Kubica noted, “I can’t wait to get back into the car. I may not have been given the green light to compete in the USA, but I hope the medical examination at Magny-Cours will be a formality. The reason why I wasn’t allowed to drive at Indianapolis had nothing to do with how I felt; the problem was the risk involved in suffering a second accident within such a small space of time. That’s also why I wasn’t allowed to test. I’ve used the time to focus intensively on preparing for the next race. ”

The Pole added, “I’m pretty neutral about the Magny-Cours track. It isn’t one of my favorite circuits, but at the same time I don’t have a problem with it. Magny-Cours is a lot more fun in a Formula One car than with the smaller cars I’ve driven there before in other categories of racing. You can particularly see the potential of the F1 car through the chicanes. ”

Mario Theissen, the BMW Motorsport Director, has this to say: “After the grand prix double-header in the huge cities across the Atlantic, the slightly remote rural idyll of Magny-Cours represents a welcome contrast. You are free to focus on the sport and the demanding race track. Like Robert himself, the team is also hoping that he will be back in the car in France. The race doctors at Magny-Cours will have the final say on that one though. ”

He added, “We have finished in the points in every race so far this season, but in the last two GPs we only managed to get one car to the end on each occasion. Nick would have been set for a third-place end in the USA and his retirement was a real pain. We are looking to pick up points with both cars at Magny-Cours and in so doing strengthen our third place in the World Championship. ”

“The two grands prix in North America saw the cars run with medium downforce, but now we’re heading into a series of races where high downforce will be the order of the day. Magny-Cours offers an fascinating mixture of slow and quick corners. One feature worth mentioning is the track surface, which is very sensitive to fluctuations in temperature. The right set-up in the morning might not necessarily be any excellent in the afternoon. This is something you have to remember when you’re making changes to the car,” said BMW Sauber’s Technical Director Willy Rampf.
