Formula 1 Live: Sebastian Vettel first Mercedes-Tracker – THE WORLD

Mobile version of the Live tickers

Kick-off winner Lewis Hamilton also the Grand Prix of Malaysia the favorite. The Formula 1 World Champion convinced at Sepang in dry and wet conditions. The greatest threat to the British by the unpredictable weather, the surprisingly strong opponents Ferrari Sebastian Vettel and of course his teammate Nico Rosberg. You must be careful when running:

Weather : Extreme heat and extremely high humidity make the drivers at the Malaysian Grand Prix eh already so much to create like no other race. But if then breaks out a downpour as the middle of the qualification, everything will be much worse and more difficult. The 5.543 km long route then turns into a hardly dominant slide. 2009 rained cats and dogs and the race had to be canceled. On Sunday (Start: 0900 Clock CEST / RTL and Sky) temperatures around 34 degrees and the humidity is 80 percent predicted. But this can also change within minutes

Silver Arrow duel . So far, Lewis Hamilton has the edge. At the season opener in Melbourne he let his pole also follow the victory. In Sepang he starts again from position one and also has his stable rival Nico Rosberg in third place just behind laterally offset side. Actually, everything speaks for last year’s winner Hamilton. Unless the weather or the technology make it a spanner in the works

Vettel . The Ferrari newcomer came Hamilton damn close, but it was not enough to .074 seconds to the first pole position with the Reds. For the first victory with the Scuderia it should be enough only in exceptional circumstances for Sebastian Vettel. “Maybe we’re a ticking closer,” judged the second surprise of qualifying. But the Silver Arrows were “hard to beat” and still favorite

Alonso . The premiere with McLaren-Honda ran for the two-time world champion remain disappointing. After Fernando Alonso Australia had missed because of the effects of a severe concussion, he is now in 18th place in the race. Only the pardoned by the stewards Manor duo behind the Spaniard accustomed to success. May Alonso that far forward fight, given the shortcomings of his new vehicle unlikely.
