Formula 1 curiosities

In this great category of automotive, super cars and super pilots, are many things that we can surprise about.
While the season has not started all read and rejoice in any articles related to Formula 1, which fall on the eyes.
Decided for myself to know a little funny from the world of Formula One.
I will start with 1976 and the team Tyrrell. This year the team won the 4-place in the constructors' championship … but at what bolide! He had 6 wheels. This miracle of technology, as shown result also has the right to life and development. The car was a success and once even scored twice in the Grand Prix of Sweden in 1976. As a result, in 1976 and 1977 all looked at the car with 6 wheels and went further develop the 4-wheel race cars.
Then you can recall a chapter from the records of F-1. The only driver who was leading on all the Grand Prix in which he participated is (dramatic pause – papapapaaaaaaaa) – Markus Winkelhock. Do you know this? I think not. And it's true – he then took part in only one Grand Prix. And he managed to put on record the Formula 1.
Go through the injury. Here distinguished Christian Klin. As the pilot of the Jaguar team in 2004, he was injured in testing in Barcelona. He cut my finger !!!!!! You say: "And what's wrong with that, any way one can. But Wedge managed to cut his finger vsunuv the fan. What he had in his head when he popped the finger back. After the release of this went: "The team hopes that Christian Wedge as quickly as possible to recover to the Grand Prix of France." There's nothing to say. Huge injury.
Touch and F-1 boss. Bernie Eklstounu company Mercedes brings almost exclusive car Mercedes CLS55 AMG V8 under the windows of his home in London. And then the next day to you. The machine does not contain two wheels. Whether it's a different car – do not worry. Noooo – not only that such machines at that time was in London on 50 pieces, so there was a burglar alarm installed cost of the 70 pieces of pounds. And it did not work! " Here are the guys vparili security system for the money !!!!!!!!!!! But then there's more to laugh – the whole operation of the camera filmed the theft of wheels – koimi stuck all the streets of London. On the one hand the robbers worked so pure that it is not squeaked in alarm – but it got to that given to film the entire process. This reminds me stealing a scene from the movie Guy Ritchie a "genius" thieves of London.
Further, once caught my eye excerpt from the book by Gerhard Berger. When I read it I was almost crying from laughter. Meaning that's what – before the first season for Ferrari, two young drivers – Jean Alesi and Gerhard Berger, Ferrari came out of the office. The office received a lecture about how, in what a great team and were expected of them in the upcoming season. Two guys understand what cargo liability and happiness to them perepal. Both inspired and happy were ready to immediately rush into battle. They waited at Fiorano (if not mistaken). For these purposes, they have provided car, but on what car they must drive to the track they were not told. The guys saw the two cars near the office – Lancia and Fiat. Immediately both liked the red Lancia, there is even more so in the ignition keys were. Assuming that this is a car that is designed for them, bravely got in the car. Jean at the wheel, Gerhard near (to pull the handbrake). Let's go – and at the entrance to the track itself, decided to call so that everyone understood that the people sitting inside the car. At high speeds are turning, spinning wheel Alesi, Gerhard pulling the handbrake, the car into a skid, beauty !!!!!!! But then the front wheel does not behave as it should and the car vleztaet up in the air and flips and falls on the roof. In the end, Jean Alesi is injured and goes to the hospital (small cuts), and Gerhard Berger because he was wearing a helmet and successfully takes executes a test program. By the end of the day came on the track Luca di Montezemolo and Jean Todt. When Todt explained that the accident occurred, he gave a lecture about what idiots he got into the team and that is unforgivable. After he asked, but where is the machine on which they have an accident. He was shown with a flat roof Lanci. And then everyone saw tetanus in the performance of the little Frenchman – it was his car. Curtain !!!!!!!
But I think it's better to curiosity will be how the seven-time hit (as long as semikartny) world champion Michael Schumacher. In 1991, the co-pilot team Jordan Belgian Bertrand Gachot drove around London in a taxi and got into an accident. That's how he got into an accident brought the Belgians out of himself, and he began swinging a gas gun (probably from too much brains). The police did not make them wait long. And Bertrand Gachot gets in English prison. Here's how to take care of taxi drivers out there. And Eddie Jordan to urgently seek a replacement in place of the second pilot. And then there he is, he carrier Leningrad – Michael Schumacher. It's funny – is not it.
So that the world of Formula 1 is full of all sorts of surprises – like a normal life.
