"Fernando Alonso is known for his fairly unforgiving nature on track but the Ferrari man could be a softie at heart. The Times of India newspaper published a photograph of the Spaniard tending a baby at a local polio hospital before he began his race duties this weekend. I asked his manager Luis Garcia Abad about Alonso's charitable work and he told me that the racer has been an ambassador for Unicef since 2005, the year he won the first of his two world titles for Renault. He also revealed that Alonso has spent time at projects in Kenya, Mali and Brazil. So there might just be a bit more to Alonso than the steely race face we normally see."

"If you were watching practice on Friday you will have seem alarming shots of Ferrari's development wing scraping along the ground at the end of the main straight. It appears that rather than simple flexing issues this has been caused by resonance - when the natural vibrations of the wing counteract with the car's vibrations from the track and combine to shake the wing almost to pieces. It would have been a complete surprise to Ferrari but they can fix this one of two ways; firstly they can run the old-spec wing that doesn't have this resonance problem or they can place weight in the new wing to change its properties."

It's only moving aerodynamic parts that are against the regulations.
