wow, there's some pent up energy here.

And apparently, some with Ron, too!

Except you can calculate Ron's, (not so) pent up energy precisely to the BTU in this matter.
As it is obviously nothing more than Hot Air!!

A guy who is able to run the Marathon is more than enough fit to drive an F1 car for 90-120 minutes at top levels.
The only thing needed that is different is neck muscles training.

As for Ron and McLaren being the ones who revolutionized physical training in F1, that's bull-brownies! There was a guy called M. Schumacher who was the fittest from the beginning to the end of his F1 career, and he never drove for the McTeam.

The only time Ron had to implement harder physical training was with JPM!

As usual, Ioan's got his facts a bit mixed up.

Ye Ole Chopper... wasn't the first to train for Formula One races.

Speaking of Pent-Up Enengy...

As I recall, Sterling Moss wrote that he would abstain from sex the night before...

Thus enabling him to... Charge to the Front !!!

Now that shows real sacrifice... to achieve a goal.

its common knowledge that nico was their first choice. after alonso and nico were ruled out, who was the best option. heikki got the seat by a process of elimination (well thats how it appears anyway).

If what you're saying here is correct, then what Ron is saying makes sense from his (Ron's) perspective.

Ron can't get his first choice, or even his second choice. So he settles for his third choice, with all the flaws and shortfalls that this third choice has in comparison to choice 1 & 2. A few months and two races later, choice number three is beating the McLaren-homegrown-wunderkind. Well, how does a number three rise to the equivalent of wunderkind in a matter of a few weeks? It must have been something in the water (or training) at the McLaren garage.

It's called a competetive car. Just because he wasn't the first or second choice. does not define his talent comming in.
Ron is blowing major smoke. His claims are laughable!

My read on the situation is that Ron is stating that Heikki's talents weren't done any justice at Renault, for various reseans. With the training regiment and car provided at Mclaren he's coming into his own.

What's wrong with that statement.

Are they into army methods now or what?

[sharpyure]

Yah, to day we will march all together down the road, left right, left right, and the week before the race, there will be no girls for you my little Heikki

What about Lewis?!

[sharpyure]

What about Lewis?!

Given his choking habit from premature flickation, he will have plenty of sex the night before to keep him from flicking swiches too soon from over-excitement and to keep his endurance at a high level.

besides he is too busy talkin to journalists to be messing around too much and bored in his apartment

[pkxlugbsbv]

for those less enlightened (in addition to the army use):

regiment: to manage or treat in a rigid, uniform manner; subject to strict discipline

What an ingrate. He doesn't mention Ron once in this sweeping analysis!
Is it possible his experience at Renault is of some positive value?

For McLaren driver Heikki Kovalainen, this will be his second race on the desert track, his first with the Woking based squad and he is looking forward to it with great gusto.

Bahrain is renowned for wind and the surrounding sand, how do both these factors affect the track conditions?
"The most obvious thing is that the sand makes the grip level lower and the tyres do not bite to the tarmac quite as well and it can be slippery in places. The track evolution also is quite high at Bahrain because when we start driving round the track, the sand flies away. It also puts some more stress on the engines, as there can be some dust in the air that goes into the engine. The weather is also quite changeable, and I guess this can happen very quickly because we are in the desert."

What demands does the Bahrain International Circuit place on the Bridgestone Potenza tyres?
"It is quite tough on the tyres. There are some hard braking areas and high speed chicanes where you are changing the direction at high speed, that always loads the tyres. We need to be aware of that and look after our tyres as much as we can over the weekend. It will be a key factor during the race."

Are there any corners or sections of the circuit you particularly enjoy?
"Turns six and seven, which are a fast right the fast left. They are a great feeling in a Formula 1 car. It is a high speed chicane that we take in fifth gear."
