The time I visited Museo Ferrari and RedBull Hangar 7


  

Few months ago I got to visit the Redbull Hangar 7 in Salzburg and Museo Ferrari, Maranello.
Here are a few pictures from my visit. To be honest Ferrari and Redbull are my two favorite teams so being able to see these two places was simply amazing. 

The Redbull Hangar 7 had lots of F1 cars including those driven by Sebastian Vettel , Mark Webber , Kimi raikkonen , David Coulthard , Nigel Mansell and so on . Not only was there a collection of F1 cars but also an amazing set of planes including fighter jets , old war planes , the redbull race planes etc. The Hangar is completely made of glass so there is a 360 degree view of the external surroundings. Located right next to Salzburg airport there is a constant view of private jets and commercial planes.There was also a few Moto GP bikes one of them was Repsol Honda but i don't think I have a good picture of the bikes. Oh ! There is also free WiFi inside the Hangar. 
 

 Ferrari , one of the most popular or rather renowned car manufacturing company ever. 
Walking into Museo Ferrari there is a pit board that says :

 #ForzaMichael #ForzaJules

The best part of Museo Ferrari for me had to be the trophy room or the "Hall of Victories"
 
All the trophies and the Championship winning cars that included the 5 of Michael Schumacher's and 1 of Kimi raikkonen. A list of the Ferrari world champions and their respective helmets 

Towards the exit there is a Ferrari shop where you can buy plenty of Ferrari Merchandise. 

A Ferrari zooming past you on the streets of Maranello will be frequent. 
At Maranello i also got to go on drive in a Ferrari California ! 
You can either drive it yourself if you have your license with you or you get a local chauffeur who will take you around.Our driver told us that police don't even try and stop the Ferraris for "speeding" as there is no point. 
 
There is also an F1 simulator( V8) in the Ferrari shop and you can get 10-15 mins on the simulator for a price (of course).

 Museo Ferrari does not only have F1 cars but also a number of Ferrari concept design sport cars . These cars will probably never make it to the road but are sure amazing to look at. 







The Hangar 7 and Museo Ferrari are amazing places to visit if you are a Motorsport or just a car fanatic in general. There is plenty of shopping in both the places from team wear to key chains. 
If you ever go to Italy or Salzburg do visit these two places. 

Until the next race ,

F1 Friendships/Bromances

In the title i used the word 'Bromance', if you don't know what bromance means well to put it simply it friendship between men . It's not hard to tell that it's the combination of two words 'brother' and 'romance'.  There are bromances in everywhere and F1 is not an exception.They maybe rivals while on track but off track it's a little different.  1.Fernando Alonso/Mark Webber  Mark webber might have retired form Formula one but that doesn't mean that his friendship with fellow driver Mark webber would halt. They share a common love for cycling and are often seen together in the paddock ,F1 or Le Mans.    P.S their "shipped name is webbando"             2.Sebastian Vettel/Kimi Raikkonen   Now teammates these two have been friends ever since Vettel's entry into F1 in 2007. They are often seen sharing jokes let it be on the podium or in the paddock , they spend most the driver's parad...

5 things you should not tell an F1 fan

Things you should never tell an f1 fan:- 1. "The cars just go around in circles."     This is probably the most common thing that F1 fans hear. To everyone who said that DO THOSE CIRCUITS LOOK LIKE CIRCLES ?.  2. "How hard can driving be?"    These cars that are being driven are no ordinary road cars. To drive an F1 car you first need an FIA super licence. There is only hand full of drivers who have an active super licence meaning only a few are qualified to drive an F1 car .  Additionally,  when driving an F1 car there are a lot of other things that act on the drivers (keep reading). It's no easy job to drive an F1 car.     3. "*insert name of any other sport* is more physically exhausting and harder than F1."    I magine that you're going at about 300 kmph, strapped to a  702 kg car. Now your heart is beating at 200 beats per minute and temperatures around you are h...

What Happened to Scuderia Ferrari in 2020

It is no secret that the start of the 2020 F1 season for Ferrari has been disastrous. The team is lacking pace and can barely match up to Racing point let alone Mercedes and RedBull. Ferrari has been the challenger or No.2 team in the Mercedes dominant hybrid era.  However, the question remains as to why Ferrari have not been able to match up to the likes of Mercedes and RedBull in the past. Even with multiple world champions in their team like Fernando Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel, the team have not been able to return to form. Ferrari's main problem seems to be its tendency to lean towards one driver and its poor communication. They seem to have been stumbling in places where they really shouldn't, making rookies mistakes. The most recent example I can think of is Canada 2019 where Ferrari allegedly forgot to tell Leclerc about his teammate's 5-second penalty. Lets not even get started on how bad the tyre strategies have been.  Mercedes, on the other han...
