- Free races are held for three sessions, Friday for 1.5 hours, Saturday for 1 hour. As a rule, two sessions are held on Friday, one - on Saturday, before qualification. At the Monaco Grand Prix, the first 2 sessions are held on Thursday, and the last, as usual, on Saturday. During free races, riders drive through the track in a free, comfortable mode for them to get acquainted with the track and set up the car.
- To participate in the race, the driver must participate (i.e. at least drive 1 lap) in at least one session of free practice.
Qualification
Over the long history of Formula 1, the qualifying format has changed several times. All formats used in Formula 1 can be viewed in the Formula 1 Qualification article.
Qualification is held on Saturday and consists of sessions. The first session lasts 20 minutes. The second session is shorter - 15 minutes. The third is the shortest - 10 minutes. During each session, the pilot can drive as many laps as he wants and has time. The lap with the shortest time will count.
- All pilots participate in the first session. They drive an arbitrary number of laps. For each pilot is selected best time passing the circle, and the last 5 pilots are eliminated from the fight for the starting position, taking places from 16th to 20th.
- The remaining 15 pilots take part in the second session, again passing circles in an arbitrary mode. Again, 5 pilots are eliminated, showing the worst time at the end of this session. They take places from 11th to 15th.
- The third session is attended by 10 pilots who showed the best lap times in the second session. They compete with each other on the same terms as before. The best lap times are again compared to determine the top 10 drivers at the start of the race.
This procedure is applicable in case of participation of 20 cars, if 22 cars participate, then after the first and second session six participants are excluded. If there are 24 cars, then after the first and second sessions, seven participants are eliminated each.
In the first and second sessions pilots can drive qualifying laps with any amount of fuel in the tanks. The cars eliminated after the first two sessions are then refueled with the fuel they will start the race with. Drivers starting in the third session must be fueled for the race before leaving for their first attempt. At the end of qualifying, these cars must not be topped up with fuel. After qualifying, the cars are sent to a closed park, that is, before the start of the race, you cannot significantly change its settings, refuel or “change shoes” into another set of tires. After the end of the session, the FIA announces the results of the control weighing of the cars, and thus the teams and spectators can judge how much fuel the rivals have on board.
If the stewards impose penalties on the pilots or the team in the form of deprivation of several places at the start, these penalties are applied immediately before the start of the race, that is, the qualification passes without taking them into account.
Race
- The race is held on Sunday, from 14:00 local time in European countries and later in Asian countries and Australia, so that the broadcast in Europe does not fall too early in the morning. During the race, the pilots must drive a number of laps, which is predetermined based on the length of the circle of the autodrome. The number of laps is selected so that the total distance of the race is equal to or at least exceeds 305 km (with the exception of 260 km at the Monaco Grand Prix). In this case, the race cannot last more than two hours. This means that if in 2 hours the leader does not overcome the entire distance of the race, then after 2 hours the circle on which this moment riders will be located, will be announced last.
- 15 minutes before the warm-up lap of the race, the cars must leave the pit lane and take their places on the starting grid according to the results of the qualification. On the starting grid, the cars may be serviced by team personnel, but 15 seconds before the warm-up lap of the race, everyone except the drivers sitting in the cars must leave the starting area.
- At the signal of a traffic light, the pilots must pass the warm-up lap, during which they are not allowed to overtake each other. The warm-up lap is mainly used to warm up the tire, thus improving its racing performance. At the end of the warm-up lap, the cars line up again on the starting grid and, after a traffic light signal, start the race in combat mode.
- During the race, a team may use any number of pit stops to refuel the car and/or change tires. The number of pit stops and how they will be distributed during the race determines the strategy of the race. Often a good strategy can lead to the superiority of a weaker machine over a stronger one. Most often, teams spend from 1 to 3 pit stops for each car, depending on the track and the chosen strategy. But in unforeseen situations, the number of pit stops can increase many times over. This may be due to a malfunction or damage to the car, or to sudden changes in weather conditions. In the latter case, the car often not only changes tires, but also adjusts the angles of attack of the rear wings. In case of damage to the car at the pit stop, some of its parts can be replaced, such as the front fairing with a wing, steering wheel, etc.
- When entering the pit lane, the rider must reduce the speed to 100 km/h (on free races up to 60 km/h). This is due to both safety issues and the fact that sometimes the path through the pit lane is shorter than the path along the track. At the pit stop, the pilot stops in front of the pits of his team. At this point, the mechanics simultaneously fill up the car, change tires and make other necessary modifications. At the time of the pit stop, the teamwork in Formula 1 is especially noticeable: the mechanics act quickly and smoothly, usually a pit stop takes less than 10 seconds.
- At the end of the race, the first 8 pilots, as well as their teams, receive points according to the 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1 system. Pilots who take first, second and third places rise to the podium and receive cups. A representative of the winning team also receives the cup. In honor of the winner, the anthem of his country is played, and then the anthem of the country for which the winning team plays. This is followed by a traditional champagne shower: the pilots douse each other with champagne, congratulating each other on a successful Grand Prix. In Bahrain, a non-alcoholic carbonated drink is used instead of champagne, due to Islamic restrictions.
- In exceptional cases, when the continuation of the competition threatens the life or health of the pilots, the race may be stopped ahead of schedule. At the same time, a red flag is posted on the track. The issue of resuming the race in this case is decided by the Grand Prix Directorate. If the race is not restarted and the riders have covered 75% of the distance by this point, then the finishing order is considered to be the order of places that existed two laps before the race was stopped (i.e. if the leader is overtaken on the last or penultimate lap, then the overtaking driver will not be declared the winner, see for example the 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix incident). If, by the time the race is stopped, the riders have not covered 75% of the distance, and the race is not resumed, then the riders receive half of their points.
- 1st place - 10 points
- 2nd place - 8 points
- 3rd place - 6 points
- 4th place - 5 points
- 5th place - 4 points
- 6th place - 3 points
- 7th place; - 2 points
- 8th place - 1 points
Scoring system
Each Formula 1 season is a competition for drivers for the World Championship and teams for the Constructors' Championship. Throughout the season, the points scored by the pilot at the Grand Prix are added to the points that he already has on his account. The team receives for each race all the points scored by both of its pilots. At the end of the season, points are calculated and winners in both nominations are revealed.
For the race, the first 8 pilots receive points if they are in the final classification. If the race was stopped for any reason and the riders drove more than 50% of the distance, half points are awarded, if the pilots covered more than 75% of the entire distance, the race is considered over and full points are awarded.
- The scoring system is as follows:
In the event of a tie in points, the overall victory goes to the rider/team with the most wins.
Even for the most positive and optimistic personalities, it happens that hands fall: it doesn’t add up anywhere - on the personal front, at work, with friends ... Only despair and nothing more. What if everything in life is bad? Just be, and the rest will fall into place.
A few thoughts to support you
If everything is bad in your life, “what to do” should be the second question. And for starters, you need to change your mindset a bit and support yourself.
Pain is just part of the growth
If the door closed in front of you, it's time to move forward. Many people do not start moving until circumstances force them to. Here they are! Move!
By the way, about the pain. In some Chinese martial arts schools, ligaments are deliberately torn for children during stretching. The pain is wild, but then it’s easier to sit on the twine.
This too shall pass
No need to quote the great king. Just don't think that the night will never end in the morning and the wound will always hurt. This does not happen!
Live in the moment and when everything is great for you, and if you have no idea what to do if everything in life is bad.
Complaining and worrying won't change a thing
No comments. Do not take away the strength that you can use to solve your problems.
All scars are only a symbol of strength
They show that you have survived the ordeal. The current wound will definitely heal with a scar. Don't let them hold you hostage and let you live in fear. This is a sign of triumph.
Every struggle you have is a step forward. If you have to fight what is bad, you move to where it will be better.
Bad people are not your problem
If they try to destroy or defeat you - smile! So you save yourself, which is important if you are surrounded by not the most decent or evil people. Be yourself even if someone says bad things about you. Don't let anyone break you and change you. The environment changes (and it is not always you who attract it), but you are with you forever.
Something to let go
You need it in order to continue on your way. Even if everything goes wrong, move on and don't be afraid to get angry, love again, make mistakes. In any case, the Universe is right, and for some reason this “everything is bad” is given to you: it only happens smoothly and calmly in a coffin, but you won’t feel it anymore.
What to do?
Thinking right is the beginning of the journey. But what if everything is bad?
Break down problems
You can even make a list of everything that is bad: the name of the problem, the essence, how to solve it, and whether it can be solved at all. Some things can be left undecided, because it only needs to be accepted. And some problems have a couple or more solutions. Something will have to be decided for years, and if your favorite coat is torn, you can deal with it in a few days.
When everything is really bad and hands fell, it is difficult to connect the logic, but it is better to do just that, and not complain and worry.
Go in for sports
Here the formula for success is simple. Firstly, the load will help you cope with stress, and secondly, problems can resolve while you have been working on yourself. And in new life you will enter with a beautiful and healthy body.
Don't go all out
Some people think that when things are bad, you need to arrange drinking and partying. This will not make your life better: troubles will not go away, but comrades will come to them: poor health, a hangover and lack of money. For girls, spoiled skin and extra pounds will be a special bonus. But once to take too much with a true friend can even be useful ...
Don't hide your negative emotions
Of course, it doesn’t make sense to constantly complain and grief cannot always be helped with tears, but you need to let off steam and negativity, no matter how you are brought up there ... Yes, you can roar, scream and break loose (even at your closest ones), beat cups. And not once, but as much as required in your situation. You can also start a whole notebook to drain negative emotions. The main thing is that it does not enter the system, like the mentioned alcohol. But to cherish your anger, resentment and other dirty tricks is forbidden!
Don't be afraid to call for help
And it's not just about the help of "their own" or influential people. If necessary, visit a priest, a psychotherapist, a spiritual mentor ... Someone who can cure you ... In general, do not be afraid to communicate during difficult periods. You understand that trouble can be shared with someone. But if you close yourself in, you will close your grief inside.
Think (and speak) only good things
You can dream about good things and then it can also materialize. You should not live with the thoughts that the status quo (that is, everything that happens today) is forever and you will die alone, unloved and in a tattered coat. No matter how you remember the anecdote about a man who only thought badly about everything, and a guardian angel sat behind him and wrote it all down: the boss is a beast, his wife is a fool, etc. Thinking, make the right orders and requests to higher forces. The same goes for conversations. Do not support negative topics that colleagues, friends or neighbors love to discuss so much - you have your own opinion.
love
This feeling is always uplifting. Do good deeds in the name of your loved ones and life will change for the better. If you do not have a half, you still have someone to love: friends or relatives, an animal. And finally, even the most difficult situations in life should not give you a reason to stop loving yourself. Just love yourself even if the husband left, the coat was torn and the boss washed down. The universe will change its attitude towards you only if you love yourself.
I present to your attention 10 effective tips on what to do when everything is bad. Forward and with a song!
There are moments in life that even incorrigible optimists and inflexible pieces of iron cannot endure.
It seems that everything in the world has taken up arms against you: family, bosses, strangers in minibuses and shops, even nature has been pouring nasty cold rain for days on end.
It seems that it can’t be more disgusting and you just don’t find the answer to the question, what to do when things are bad.
Even if everything is bad with you today, then you need to think that tomorrow everything will definitely get better, and not: “I will die an ugly, sick, useless old maid.”
Dream about the good and the Universe will surely respond to your call.
Take action.
Problems rarely resolve themselves.
Before you give up, you must be sure that you have done everything in your power to resolve the conflict.
From the fact that you sit down and whine all day long about how unhappy you are and why life is so unfair, your situation will not change for the better.
Humble yourself.
There are tragedies that we cannot control.
I am talking, first of all, about the death of loved ones.
Yes, it hurts you a lot, yes, you think that this is unfair, but there are trials that we must endure with honor, so that when we meet our loved ones and relatives in another world, we would not be ashamed.

Modern life is very dynamic. Every day we face many problems and challenges. But sometimes it happens that we seem to have hit an invisible wall - it seems that we are doing everything right, but we cannot move a single step forward in our actions, or we do it very, very slowly.
But that's all. This is an occasion to think about how to change the situation if nothing works. What to do? These tips apply to work, hobbies, sports, personal life .. And in general to our lives. Follow them and you'll be fine!
It probably didn't happen too often, did it? Why don't things go the way we plan them, why don't things go the way we imagine? We have recently come to the conclusion that we as humans try too hard to control the situation. We see life too much as a plan, something linear that can be organized, anticipated, measured.
But, from my point of view, life is much more like biology than a project. It works more on trial and error than something you can easily measure and control. Why do we always talk about plans in life when no plan stands up to meeting reality?
Do something else
The first thing to do is stop, do something else, or just relax. Before that, you worked with information, and its resource for further advancement was exhausted.
Get distracted, let the information “settle down” in your head, restructure. This is done without our knowledge :) After that, you can look at the problem in a new way.
We speak as if we can confidently expect what will happen. At work, we imagine what we will do this week, how everything will go, how our day will show us. The boss then arrives and announces that plans are changing. Goals are up this week.
Life happens between reality and plan
And then you wake up talking until two o'clock in the morning with someone, three days in a row, and you realize that "Oh, something is happening." He doesn't have the height, eyes, hair, laughter that you imagined. And yet you feel good in your company. Then you will also find that it has flaws. Wait, wait, that wasn't the plan.
Personal experience
More recently, the same thing happened to me: I worked remotely with one of the sites and did not understand why, if I do everything correctly and as usual, no expected changes occur with the project. I spent a decent amount of time on this until I decided to quit this activity, to rest for an hour or two. And as soon as I was a little distracted, the information at my disposal settled down in my head, and I realized how obvious the reason for the stop was. And all it took was to switch their attention to other activities and relax a bit.
You thought that the first job would be a certain way, but it's not. The truth is that quite a few things are as we expect. Once we understand and accept that life is more like biology than mathematics, the chaos around us will make more sense.
You will understand why things are the way they are, or at least you will agree that you cannot understand them. You will see that mistakes and failures are natural, they are part of the process of adaptation, learning. Sociology, business and life in general will never be as simple and predictable as mathematics or physics.
It is very important to be able to look at your actions from a new point of view, to go beyond the usual boundaries. Here is the same as in the problem about points.
How to connect 9 dots with four lines without lifting the pencil from the paper?
Chances are the solution will be closer than you think. It is enough to go beyond the boundaries outlined by the conditions;) A walk in the fresh air or meeting with friends can help us in this good service. We will give our brain new impressions that will help us see the problem from the other side. They will stimulate our creativity. It's like the poets who needed a muse for inspiration.
There is only one way to be successful in life, even if some "successful salespeople" tell us. People are successful in one area with another, even opposite approach. You just need to find what suits you. Life is not a plan that we implement, it is a test where we see what is happening and what we do not constantly adapt to. If something works, do more, if not, try something else.
So don't try to foresee, control so much. Enjoy life, accept that you are wrong, things will not go according to plan, and you can control the destination. Why do we complain about nature? He behaves generously: life, if you know how to use it, is long. Of course, the rest of space is not life, but time. Vices swell and surround people on all sides, and they do not allow him to rise or lift his eyes to the true exam, but keep them immersed in passions.
If it doesn't work, reformulate the problem.
A lot depends on how exactly we describe to ourselves the tasks that we need to complete. Agree, the more detailed we define the procedure for ourselves, the better we will understand what and why we are doing.
In addition, this is how we will see our real movement - it will give us strength. So we get rid of problems with our lack of motivation. It will be useful to remember our previous achievements - this will help to feel that we are worth something in this life, to believe in our strength!
Look at those whose prosperity makes people flee: they choke on their possessions. How much wealth in weight. How much eloquence and daily Crowd of customers crawling around leaves no freedom! In short, she looks at everyone, from the weak to the strongest: it calls help, it is he who gives in, he is in danger, the one who protects, the one who judges, no one claims that he owned it for himself, the one who spend on someone else.
Therefore, the indignation of some people is very sublime: they complain about the bourgeoisie of the authorities because they did not have time when they wanted to ask for a hearing. Or complain about the other's pride that he ever has for himself? So you haven't invested in your account any of these actions because you didn't, you didn't want to be with others, rather you couldn't be with yourself. When was the last time you felt like you were in complete control of a situation?
Keep calm
If you are the type of person who worries about everything, has a hard time coping with failures, you urgently need to do something about it! Remember that negative emotions do not help us solve problems.
As you push yourself more and more, you get further and further away from your goals. And in this case, only you and no one else will be to blame. Worrying about failure not only distracts and exhausts you, but it can also destroy your self-confidence. How can you achieve something if you think you can't do it?
Lack of control is a source of stress
Some areas are still missing. A negative answer immediately makes you think that if you don't care where your life goes, you have little chance of getting what you want. But at the same time, you can't do everything at once. When do we worry the most? When we know something can go wrong, we feel like we can't control it. Sometimes this is true, sometimes not.
It is often difficult to overcome stress or the thought of "jumping" to pinpoint the problem. Specify its causes, ways to overcome them. The easiest way is to tell yourself what could be the worst if you don't touch anything. Often the "loss" seems so small that you immediately know that you are worried about it. In short, you are in control of the situation.
Everything depends on ourselves
Remember that there are no people who are never wrong. If you meet a person who says that he has never been late in his life () - do not believe him, this does not happen.
We are all human, we are not perfect. The main thing is to believe in yourself and in your strengths, never stop and move forward all the time!
The Right Lifestyle Leads to Satisfaction
When we live in such a way that every day we strive for something, we are more motivated because we feel our leaders in our hands. This is most apparent when our goal is to have a good rest. The second important thing is that life is a life passage without any control.
What areas of life have you left?
And it's for the same reason. These areas control you, not you. The bottom line is that we only have 1-3 tasks that we need to do, and all the rest go to the "I'll do it later" list. The difference is that, as a rule, the list of daily jobs grows only due to the emergence of new and urgent customer needs. Thus, the original work always remains unfinished. And as we see more and more work in progress, we begin to feel bad. There is no reason to mention reasons.
Why does it happen that for some people nothing works out in life, nothing succeeds, while others are constantly lucky? It would seem that a lot of work has been done to achieve the goal and it's time to get a positive result, but it wasn't there - unforeseen circumstances arise and everything falls apart. Luck turns away. What is the reason for the indifference of fortune?
Thus, when applying these new methods, only those whom you are fully committed to the cause are listed, and everyone else is in the following list. Thus, control moves into your hands and returns to the satisfaction of what you do. So, the luck of the cartel is determined by whether you are the owner of the situation.
This is another cause of stress and discomfort. When we put off work, we stop striving for what we know we want and then emptiness again. In other words, we realize that the situation has fallen out of our hands. At some point, she begins to control us.
You look from the side, for some people everything turns out easily, everything succeeds, while for others - constant difficulties and. The most annoying thing is if this is what you do not succeed.
And different questions constantly climb into my head ... Well, why is that? Well, what am I doing wrong? Well, why did such and such a person get everything, but I can’t achieve my goals in any way? Why can't I earn the right amount of money? Or arrange a personal life? Or find a good job?
We are looking for reasons in ourselves, in the surrounding people and circumstances, in the vicissitudes of fate. Indeed, there are reasons that we are not always able to consciously control, but which have a significant impact on the effectiveness of our actions. It is quite difficult to notice this on your own, because not all of us have enough courage to look at ourselves and our actions from the outside.
How to take control of your hands?
However, it should be understood that everything cannot be eliminated immediately. If you do the opposite, then almost most of life's initiatives will automatically be taken into your own hands. Be curious when you feel something is wrong, don't overcome the problem, don't face it. Physical pain refers to some physical ailment, for example, a toothache means that a tooth is broken and something needs to be done.
What are the five things you value most in life?
Unpleasant emotional feelings equally indicate the need to take action and correct the situation. What do you think is the most important thing in life? What 5 things are you most willing to fight for?
Write down 3 key life goals in 30 seconds
Due to time constraints, answers must point to true aspirations, rejecting all pressure environment and brainwashing.
There is an opinion that life path a person is predetermined from the very beginning, even before the moment of his birth. However, we tend to believe that the fate of a person only partly depends on the genetic code laid down in him by his parents. Perhaps some events are predetermined. But in general, fate is multivariate, and the character of a person, his thoughts and actions can change in accordance with his views and beliefs under the influence of willpower.
What would you do if you won a million?
In other words, what would you do if you had all the time and enough money? What would you do first? This question lets you answer the question as if you have no limits. What would you do and how would you spend your time if you knew today that you will die only after 6 months. Imagine being healthy for 6 months and then just dying. When you start thinking about death, then real values appear on the surface, that is, the most important thing for you in your life.
What have you always wanted to do but were afraid to try?
The question we are asking is the first answer you have to make in life. You may have already decided to take it, but later you changed your mind because you got a little scared. You may have made an apology to delay your goal. His name is "Inverted". When you are full of energy, enthusiasm and activity, then everything looks like humor. You still need to keep everything else in mind. Well, but that's enough for midnight, you need to do something useful in the morning.
The idea that fate is sealed is convenient for people who do not want to take action and are content with what they have. And they justify themselves by blaming other people or circumstances for the result. This opinion is suitable for people who take a passive position and have a passive outlook on life. But people who are accustomed to taking the initiative into their own hands are more at heart with the opinion about the multivariance of the future and the possibility of changing it.
After 3-5 weeks, there comes a time when work planning stops. You love nothing, just go away, damn well and sleep a lot, read good book or watch a movie. This state lasts 1-2 weeks. When they finish, everything starts from the beginning. A lot of strength and a lot of accumulated work, so help them. This time more and more trying to remember that you need to rest.
As you probably already understood, everything goes in cycles. Have you heard the word biorhythms? This mathematical model, which shows how a person will live in physical, emotional and intellectual life depending on time, i.e. identify good and bad days. By doing more research, it is now considered pseudoscience. However, even if it cannot be subtracted or the error is too high, my life is definitely cyclical.
How does life change happen? First, a person has a thought or idea to change something or achieve something. Then the person begins to realize why he needs these changes. Appears intrinsic motivation, forcing you to choose among a variety of options for actions and actions, then perform the selected actions. If a person deliberately performs the same act several times, these actions become a habit in him. New habits can change character. A change in character provokes a change in fate.
Work a week, stay a week
Most of the work is done when there is a lot of energy and enthusiasm. Then time ends imperceptibly. On those days, you need to work as much as possible so that others can relax in peace. Steve Pavlina read the advice about trying to work one week and the other didn't work and had several options. When the main income comes from hired work, this is difficult to do.
It is difficult to assess the result one-sidedly. On the other hand, working every week every week is difficult. That's why this one, this next work next week. When you do everything, he does nothing. However, when you focus on one thing, you can topple mountains. The easiest way is to simply work less. But in order to do something, you have to do it. Therefore, a more acceptable method of discarding work that is of little use is adaptation.
Therefore, it is very important to start learning. Positive thoughts entail positive actions and, as a result, good luck in business. negative thoughts create bad habits that we do not even always notice, poisoning our lives and moving us away from the goal. If any unfortunate events and circumstances repeat in your life, then most likely you have a negative habit that prevents you from moving forward.
In order to understand why nothing works out in life from what you have planned, you need to objectively look into your inner world and recognize the negative attitudes, habits and stereotypes that are present in your mind and affect your behavior. Past negative experience can also be stored in the mind and, if misinterpreted, turn into complexes and fear of similar actions. So that complexes do not arise, you need to learn to always extract positive experience from any negative events.
Negative attitudes can be laid in us in childhood by parents, teachers, peers. And they can sit in our minds for the time being and shoot at the most inopportune moment. Very often, our reaction to external stimuli or an unplanned course of events becomes defense, expressed in irritation, anger, fear, insecurity, that is, negative emotions, under the influence of which we commit stupid and thoughtless actions, complicating our lives. Sometimes such emotional protection is not needed at all, but we, as it were, “turn on” it thanks to our negative habit.
