F1 2011 Malaysian Grand Prix: Fernando Alonso tells us a lap on the track





F1 2011 Malaysian Grand Prix: Fernando Alonso tells us a lap on the track in Malaysia.
 The Formula One comes to the second stage of the season at the Malaysian circuit of Sepang.
 The track Asia, designed by German architect Hermann Tilke, designer of all the new
 tracks which since 1998 have been included in the calendar of Formula One.




It was with the Malaysian track at Sepang, Tilke debuted in 1998, 
suggesting a morphological structure of the track such as to allow a greater
 number of passes through the insertion of very slow corners, but wide, straight at the end
 of over a mile development. The rationale for the choice was to overcome problems
 related to the aerodynamic noise of the cars below, imposed by aerodynamic diffuser 
which is located in front of the car, pull through violent and sweeping curves, and slow,
 that would allow attacks on minimum conditions of safety.


In the video that we present below, Fernando Alonso, Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro, 
tells us a ride on the Sepang circuit, explains the characteristics of the circuit and the key
 points to get a good qualifying time, or try out the attacks in the race . Alonso, twice world
 champion in Formula One with Renault in 2005 and 2006 has triumphed twice on the Asian
 circuit, with Renault in 2005 and 2007 with McLaren.
