Mr C: It feels like we are underway, the season is go and it’s been non-stop from the first green flag of the year. This is the first break we’ve had, a little bit of downtime for Sidepodcast, but still we are recording a new show for you, that’s how hard we are working this year. Christine: But after two races in a row we’ve got three weeks off now and then there’s another two races and then there’s another three weeks off, it’s just weird scheduling this calendar. Mr C: It’s a crazy calendar, but it makes sense for the people who have to endure it. If you are a Formula 1 team who has to pay personnel to go off overseas, back-to-back races makes a lot of sense. You can cram in a lot of action, you can cram in a lot of racing in a fortnight, and then you can get back to base and save yourself a lot of money and in these troubled economic times, that is essential, so you can’t hold in against… you cannot hold the calendar against the people who have to go out there and live it. Christine: No. And having three weeks off gives us plenty of time to ponder everything that happened in Malaysia because my goodness that was a controversial race.

April 2012 – Vor einer eindrucksvollen Kulisse von 142.000 Zuschauern (am Wochenende) startete die DTM auf dem Hockenheimring mit einem turbulenten Rennen furios in ihre neue Ära. Der neue Audi A5 DTM startete von der Pole-Position und belegte nach 40 Runden den dritten Platz. Damit wiederholte sich die DTM-Geschichte: 1990 holte Hans-Joachim Stuck in Zolder beim ersten DTM-Rennen von Audi mit dem V8 quattro den dritten Platz – am Ende des Jahres wurde er Meister. 2004 belegte Mattias Ekström beim ersten Einsatz des Audi A4 DTM in Hockenheim ebenfalls den dritten Platz. Auch der Schwede holte am Ende den Titel. Mattias Ekström startete mit seinem Red Bull Audi A5 DTM auf dem Hockenheimring von der Pole-Position und übernahm am Start sofort die Führung, die er bis zur fünften Runde hielt, ehe er sich in Kurve zwei verbremste, hinter Jamie Green und kurz darauf auch hinter Gary Paffett zurückfiel. In der Folge konzentrierte sich der Schwede aus dem Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline darauf, den dritten Platz zu sichern, der in diesem Jahr wie in der Formel 1 mit 15 Punkten belohnt wird. „Wen man von der Pole-Position startet, ist Platz drei sicherlich nicht das, was man sich erträumt“, erklärte Mattias Ekström.

Twice before, from 1963 to 1970 and from 1986 to 1992, México City has been the scene of exciting World Championship races. We enjoy a proud heritage in the sport: from the early brilliance of the Rodríguez brothers, the sterling efforts of Moisés Solana and Héctor Rebaque to the modern achievements of Esteban Gutíerrez and Sergio Pérez, Mexican drivers have carved their own names in the history of the sport. A few of you may have been here before. You will find many things the same – yet different. The race will still take place in the parkland of Magdalena Mixhuca where great names of the past wrote their own page in Mexican history, but the lay-out of the 21st-century track is brand-new.

    FEDERATION INTERNATIONALE DE L' AUTOMOBILE 2017 FIA Formula One World Championship Azerbaijan Grand Prix Thursday Press Conference Transcript PART ONE: DRIVERS – Daniil KVYAT (Toro Rosso), Kimi RÄIKKÖNEN (Ferrari), Stoffel VANDOORNE (McLaren) PRESS CONFERENCE Q: Kimi, if we can start with you. We’re back at a street track this weekend. You took pole position in Monaco a couple of races ago -- how confident are you of a repeat here? Kimi RÄIKKÖNEN: Unfortunately it doesn't give you any guarantees. It’s in the past, and a completely different circuit. Not really any similarities than Monaco, but nevertheless I think we have a good car everywhere. We'll see how it goes, we can only give our best. Hopefully we’ll be at the front again; we’ll see what happens. Q: Pirelli are turning up this weekend with slightly harder tyre compounds than in Monaco. How do you think that’s going to affect the battle between Ferrari and Mercedes? KR: I don’t know. It’s been close, more or less every race this year. Obviously, like I said, the circuits are so much different and it’s not a big surprise that the tyres are slightly different here. I don’t know. I’m not really interested in guessing what will happen, but I guess it's going to be close like it's been at other races; I’m surprised if it’s only one team is way ahead of another. Q: You don’t want to guess what’s going to happen this weekend, but after the technical problems you had in Canada last time out, do you feel you’re due a lucky break here? KR: No, not really! It’s not something you can count on it.
