The last litter of the superstars of the F1 seems to arrive at its aim. After the retirement of professor Alain Prost in 1993 and the death of Ayrton the Seine the later year, Michael Schumacher took the reins becoming the new and more successful monarch from the category from the reign of Juan Manuel Fangio. Nevertheless, as of this year, and had mainly to the changes conducted in the regulation, passage is occurring to a new litter of future promises that, although some are not in end equipment, have the opportunity of being able to demonstrate because it considers them like such.

The son of the legendary Gilles initiated his fifth season with BAR

In the first place we are going to mention to which had the net opportunity to obtain a world-wide championship but that lately the fortune has given the back him of a frustrating form. We talked about the Canadian Jacques Villeneuve. With a title of the IndyCar under its arms, it burst in into the world of the F1 in 1996 with the image of a potential world-wide champion and a challenging revolt front of the established truths (it llámese Max Mosley, Bernie Ecclestone, etc)
Without doubt demonstrated that it. In its second year in the category it gave to samples of its natural talent and speed to the control of one of the best cars of the decade, the Williams Renault, surpassing nothing less than to the world-wide bichampion Michael Schumacher.

Villeneuve gained 11 races and a championship of the world (1997)

Nevertheless, the following year it did not have a competitive machine and it decided to take to his parchments to the new British American Racing along with his friend and representative Craig Pollock. Everything painted of wonders, an equipment mounted to his around and many million. Pity, the championship was disastrous for all in the equipment without securing a point at least. It was only possible to be improved, especially with the arrival of the official Honda motors. But in these final years escudería never could not construct a sensible and fast chassis, and obtain a motor either as hard as those that Honda used to do at the time of the Seine and Prost. Even they were surpassed by Jordan, that it used similar motors. This year are the different things for the square that commands David Richards, apparently have surpassed the previous falencias and all already it begins to have an order. Now the opportunity is of the own Jacques.

Montoya continues suffering with the poor yield of its Williams

Another one of the pilots who usually compare themselves with Villeneuve is Juan Pablo Montoya. Also it left with a title of the American tracks of CART, counting in addition on another championship in Formula 3000. And in addition it arrived at the same equipment to the Canadian, Williams. It did not take in being able to show everything what promised and even eclipsing to the minor of the Schumacher. It has charisma, a great talent, but it suitable machinery not to obtain that maturity that needs like pilot to be the best one. BMW is, par excellence, most powerful of the park, but also it is evident that dupla Head-Fisher, in spite of being strong, does not have the same dimension that the Head-Newey pair of the past.
It is not that the chassis is not competitive, but it needs that final touch of regularity that already owns Ferrari and McLaren. And as it were already said previously, no of these two last equipment has shown its true weapon of the 2003. In any case, thanks to being able to develop the car in the week and to the prescribed changes, it is probable that in the beginning of the European stage Juan Pablo manages to have the elements necessary to fight by the title.

Fisichella, an untiring fighter of the maximum category

Mixed in this tandem, we also appointed the recent winner of the GP of Brazil, Giancar it Fisichella. A data that demonstrates to him to be so talented and quick is that, along with Michael Schumacher, they are unique the two pilots of the present time who have always surpassed their teammates. The German humiliated, practically, to Barrichello, Irvine, Herbert, Verstappen, Letho, Patrese, Brundle, Of Cesaris and Nelson Piquet. Physique, did the own thing with Lamy, Ralf Schumacher, Wurz, Button, Sato and at the moment They sign.

Physique running with the mediocre Benetton Renault of 2001

Nevertheless, like that they know F1, never it had a winning car. This good, handled a Benetton with official Renault motors, but also it is certain that then, escudería that by that then directed a promising Richards, was in a spare part stage after to have moved away of them the quintuple world-wide champion and his “pals”, Ross Brawn and Rori Byrne. Soon they continued to him a stage of errors in the control of the conduction, which took to the equipment to count on chassis and poor motors until, when it seemed that with Renault everything was going to improve, Flavio Briatore proposed to Fisichella a nonagreed contract to him to its capacities and the Italian finished again saturating team that gave fame him, Jordan Grand Prix.
The year past very promising era for all, but the unstable chassis and the lack of power of Honda RA002E, sent all the expectations of Physique by the sewers. For this season, the equipment counts on a more promising chassis.
Doubts that would not fit if the Italian had piloted a Williams in 1996 and 1997, or a McLaren between 1998 and 1999, would be so champion as Hill, Villeneuve or Hakkinen.

Raikkonen arrived like the successor of Hakkinen in McLaren

He is Finnish, but it is not the Mika de McLaren, although also it leads in the same square. Kimi Raikkonen is one of that they threaten the old guard, the Schumacher, and to the new one or established, the Montoya, Villeneuve or Fisichella. Without practically having experience with cars of high power, it anchored almost in Sauber competing at the same level that Heidfeld, another pilot with great talent, but that already was a year old of experience to its backs. Quickly, McLaren was overcome it to Ferrari, and from the start of the match until the end of the 2002, it surpassed to the Coulthard veteran in several opportunities. This year, besides to have gained a GP, comprises of the Renaissance of escudería of Rum Dennis, having of this form chances true to be champion of the world.

Fernando Alonso is one of the young promises of Renault

The Spanish Fernando Alonso is other that follows its steps, in his first season demonstrated sparkles of his natural abilities and after to spend a year like probador of Renault, now the unique French equipment after the disappearance of Prost GP, gives the opportunity him to arrive his first pole and podio to confirm than he is able to do. It will be necessary to see that it happens when Renault uses the new impellers with 50 CB of more.

Trulli could not win in its passage by the equipment Jordan Honda

Finally, also it is important to name to Nick Heidfeld and Jarno Trulli, other two great pilots who until the moment did not have the suitable machines to prevail. The German demonstrated to be to the same height of Jean Alesi, anything less than in his debut in Formula 1, and surpassed soon to the mentioned Raikkonen and Felipe Massa in his two years like conductor of Sauber. For this time, he counts on a trustworthy car and a simply superb motor like being able to arrive at podio. Something that also appears to him to Trulli with Renault, for the first time since he arrived at the maximum category. Although he journeyed by equipment that promised too much, like Prost and Jordan, but to the whole to be to be a new deception every year, Jarno, as it happens to him to Montoya, when not being able to drive a winning car, is itself disabled of being able to obtain that maturation that is also needed to be a great runner.

Schumi always is, and hopes to gain his sixth title of the world

But eye, that nobody of by disappeared to Michael, who in spite of this “small” bad gust of wind, continues being the pilot with greater talent and capacity of the moment, as thus also he continues owning in his hands the best car of the history of Formula 1.
Within one week, with the beginning of the GP of Imola, in San Marino, the true championship really begins and all the escuderías will be able to bring to light their true potential.
