What Is The Toilet Paper Roll Test

    Italian driving lessons





    Chronicle Argentina Grand Prix 1953, marked by tragedy, and which succeeded Alberto Ascari.


    afternoon it appeared Alberto Ascari at the Autodromo Municipal "October 17" for their first training session to learn about a track that would lead first to the fourth round will we registered a time of 1m50s. There we had an index of their capacity and for Ferrari. In a new session failed to establish 1m49s, and Juan Manuel Fangio, the Maserati 1m49s1/10 command.


    The difference was minimal, but the Balcarce told us that "had given everything." Was admissible in evidence classification, and perhaps in the race, if the struggle required it, was likely to Maserati lowered the time, but accepted that that machine Fangio was near the limit.
    's afternoon qualifying lap was not possible to those days of practice because rain prevented it.

    began to roll the machines to more than two minutes, but so rain dwindled and the track was drying up in part-time gradually decreased. The 1m55s4/10 of Arcari (Ferrari) was the best, followed by Fangio (Maserati), 1m56s1; Villoresi (Ferrari) 1m56s5, Farina (Ferrari) 1m57s1, Gonzalez (Maserati) 1m58s5, Hawthorn (Ferrari) 1m59s4, Trintignant ( Gordini) 2m00s4, Manzon (Gordini) 2m00s9, Gálvez (Maserati) 2m01s3, Menditeguy (Gordini) 2m02s6, Brown (Cooper Bristol) 2m03s7, Schwelm Cruz (Cooper Bristol) 2m03s7, Birger (Simca Gordini 1.5) 2m03s8, Bonetto (Maserati) 2m04s2 and Barber (Cooper Bristol) 2m06s8.


    Little did we say these days and they were subject to when they started out as the rain stopped and then raging, and was hit for the moment when the track was under puddles and high fall less water. Serve only to set the starting order, and it determined that the first line was Ascari Fangio with rope, and "tight" on the other side by Villoresi and Farina. The latter made test with the machine because his Hawthorn was wrong, to the point that the engine was changed for the day of competition and Farina had to walk the first lap with the caution that is a "squishy."



    Say something about the machines. The Ferrari has four cylinders and an output range of 190 HP at a speed of 6,800 rpm. Its weight, without pilot walks through the 610 kg The Maserati have six-cylinder engines and power similar to the Ferrari but at a speed of 7,500 revolutions per minute. Your weight fluctuates in the 580 kg The Gordini have six-cylinder engine, weight of 540 kg and can reach 160 HP at a rate of 6,000. The Cooper Bristol also have six-cylinder engines, a weight of 508 kg and a power of 130 HP. The leading Birger Gordini Simca is one of the known for us with four-cylinder engine and a rated power of 110 HP. These data are not specific, because there are always secrets and is very difficult to know exactly, especially with respect to the Ferrari and Maserati. As we accept, always "hide" something. The reader must take as approximate, and if anyone is in the hands of others, we have also collected various reports.


    In training sessions we had the impression that Ferrari went very well and that he had Ascari 1m49s significant margin. Both Fangio and Gonzalez agreed that they were fastest when they saw in Europe last season and reportedly obtained it was due in part to decreased weight about 70 kilos, while the Maserati increased by about 30 to strengthen chassis in the rear. Onofre Marimon informed us that he seemed to see the Ferrari with more reaction to the exit of corners. All this led us to accept that they were the most qualified.


    arrived to our country more lightweight and had suffered only one defeat in Europe in the fourth Grand Prix of France in Reims verified and youthful vigor to the Jean Behra in command of a Gordini. In the Monza test was at the forefront Gonzalez with the Maserati losing accumulated in the fight when he stopped in the pits to refuel.
    In this competition the Ferrari came under full load in order not to stop for refills. In the preliminaries had set a time of 2m05s4 Ascari, in the race lap record was matched between the champion and 2m06s1 González. That is, when the charge consumption shrank by Ferrari came at the speed of the Maserati. The third time corresponded to Monza with Manzon Gordini: 2m06s4.



    You can add other background and record in Modena Gonzalez was about to beat the Ferrari, but to be "plugged" in the Villoresi last round lost to by just 4 / 5 of a second arrival memorable. But as we said, it was agreed that Ferrari came to our country more rapidly, without thereby losing efficiency, which was amply demonstrated by the performance that accounted for at the racetrack. Only one machine was, and the accident to Faris, is, not attributable to the performance of it.


    The other three came in the top rankings and only they "snuck" Gonzalez, due to their ability and tenacity without limits. "I thought not to stop once and I had to stop four times," he said after the race. The arrests, except one for tire change, was due to mechanical problems. According to their statements at the beginning is joined on the grid paper subtracting air to the radiator and cause overheating. That, and the intensity of the fight when struggling to get the second place, determined that the machine lifted Froilan much temperature and was forced to abandon that contention and stay in third place.

    González
    By setting the lap record in the 64 th with 1m48s7, immediately Ascari was ordered to go for the record, and was so made 1m48s6 in the 68 th, and after the 73 th 1m48s4. Without getting into comparisons of leaflets, we by force refer to the situation of chasing González Villoresi in this battle for second place. If Gigi was a star and still is an excellent conductor, the truth is that years and blows his ardor that dwindled. However that could withstand the hit from Gonzalez and to distance themselves, following the signs which it was sent from his position. It was not, then, a comparison of men only, but more than that machine. Good times achieved by Fangio and Gonzalez emerged thanks to the tremendous effort of them obtained by the Ferrari drivers, while recognizing the virtues of them, among which is the champion, were conquered with less effort.


    is the impression we had already before the race, which was confirmed in its development with the smooth functioning of the Ferrari. At a time when Farina had placed third behind Fangio can see progress in the columns of partial complete these reviews. With motor still soften somewhat in Balcarce approached and stood there expectantly until the time of his defection. The efforts of Juan Manuel (which exceeded all expectations with respect to fitness after such a long absence) failed to catch up with Ascari and immediately get away from his pursuer. It is another detail that we offered in the match race between the two machines makes candidates more directly to victory.


    If at any time, and then all of detention alternatives, Manzon came to be the second that confirms what we stated in the Gordini. Had to change rear tires and lost the French post of honor. Later in the 68th, he ran a wheel and was able to stabilize your machine Manzon with visible effort and ample demonstration of his gifts as conductor. A wheel, a straw that breaks, a differential that fails, none of that happened to Ferrari. Is that the long experience of a technical organization that has 25 years of struggle agree to these results, do not run a car for details. Because a machine is not only an engine, is a set. We do not know if Ferrari's competitors could break the granite fortress of a technical organization as experienced. It seems difficult at the moment, and that could determine the global motorsport look very hurt by the dominance of the home victorious.


    Time will tell. For now, we almost dare to say that the first test score for the Ferrari World Championship has already conquered. Certainly there is plenty to go yet, but the demonstration of technical efficiency along with excellent drivers, including Ascari is an induce to look at things in a way. It was, therefore, a suit of men but, more than anything, machines, although in the case of victor's just acknowledge that it has reached the ideal combination, man and machine. The formula of success in motorsport, so exposed to all mechanical contingencies, was present in our Autodromo.


    If the Maserati could not match the line of his direct opponents, if Gordini, in particular that of Manzon, was for one thing, the less modest aspirations Bristol Cooper had with their low power. These British machines, which are originally the German BMW that we met here in such sport, have not improved in proportion to the years. Are the same for almost 20 years and think it is fair that they should have seen the progress that corresponds to the two decades of extreme acceleration mechanics.


    First arrest of Jose Froilan Gonzalez for a disadvantage in motor remedied shortly. This will have to add three more, losing second place
    Froilan As we have seen in them, and what we know about the power that reaches to 130 HP, the truth is they can not compete with other brands attendance and who have remained stagnant while the whole world motorsport has flown more than running. The excitement, therefore, was in pursuit of Juan Manuel Fangio in second until lap 36 to finish third and cross the line to start the 37 th the machine stopped.


    Prior to that, and from the beginning, warned that its differential Fangio was wrong, but continued because circumstances demanded it until we saw jumping differential gears. That is the truth, jumped to the pits. Until then, we repeat, Juan Manuel had overcome his own physical condition with a will and boundless enthusiasm. What he accomplished is up to you. The machine was not answered to the extent of his hopes and ours. The same can be said of Gonzalez in terms his career, with all the disadvantages that mean four arrests, though brief. We subtract one, tire change, because it also did the same who preceded him. It is possible to say that Gonzalez ran more than the Maserati, and that he 1m48s7 tore it tooth and nail clipped to the circuit.


    Behind him stood the promise he represents Michael Hawhtorn, the 23 year old Englishman months ago, in a letter from our friend Juan Carlos Guzzi, asked us to write down that name among the most outstanding flying the new generation. For the first time led a special machine and it was here in the race that comment.


    He did very well, and it is more than a promise, and took a step forward. Engineering student, left the books to follow the course set by his vocation. Can be quite pleased with what has been done and we welcome and we also remember as a promise contained in our pages for some time thanks to the correspondence of the friend mentioned above. Hawthorn


    preceded Oscar Galvez, who made the race I could. " Without adaptation to the machine, was significantly improved as the trial unfolded. I had already mentioned, it is not easy to jump from a road car, which dominates, with which the steering wheel has "grown up" and appear as overnight to be a pistard. Is another weight, another volume, another power, a different braking, a multitude of details and setting machine which require a long time to adapt, because Oscar needs to "wean" his own and get used to the new.


    would need to continue competing in track, which is what they asked Fangio, Gonzalez and the people of the Maserati, but Gálvez not very determined to go to Europe and continued. Awaiting the outcome of these races to decide. That is why adjusted to better behavior, serenity, wisdom, without any rush that might be detrimental to him and the machine. If some addicts his thought on the possibility of a victory that would have meant a miracle in the case of normal race. We believe that had an excellent performance. We have outdone three Ferrari and an experienced and capable as Gonzalez. This is "the balance" and a failure in the ignition.


    Jean Behra was the one who was ahead of his team in the standings. Does not walk very well because this boy who was five years motorcyclist in his country and won championships, comes from the Carrera Panamericana, where he won the initial stage. The second road left to walk over 200 miles per hour. Fell off a cliff, with 14 vertical meters, and with a fortune extraordinary, since only broke three ribs, there was a wound on his forehead and nose injury. They had to do surgery cosmetic skin grafting of her arm. "But," we said, and someone expressed, "Is not that enough?".


    Yes, I really was lucky because one can imagine what it means to fall from 14 meters high with a car that will walk a hundred times over. Preceded Trintignant, but this machine Schell directed in the last laps. And finally, the modest Cooper Bristol Barber and Brown. The latter was the who was ranked higher.
    length 16 and arrived 9, Birger was the first to leave after their hard work by placing the motor in acceptable working condition. It is unacceptable that the team has brought that Gordini pints in the conditions under which arrived in the country. If it was poor little less powerful, it was for that was as sharp as possible.


    Pablo Birger, his brother and many friends will worked hard to put in a position, but there was much to fix and there was neither time nor material to do so. And walked. Menditeguy had a malfunction in the box after having been at the forefront of them, and Schwelm Cross with Bristol Cooper, broke the tip of the shaft. Of the other defections have already spoken.
    By now, therefore, has been the feeling of superiority manifested in the Ferrari and our impression of the effort made by Gonzalez and Fangio in the Maserati. Time will tell if they can approach those, and it will be during the European season. If the formula of success in motorsport is man and machine, the Ferrari had it and gave a strong step forward in the conquest of new title to which it aspires.
