I should clean up the grammatical errors; but, I can't do it now... will try, at some point.
At least, the gist of it is understandable!
My apologies!!

Mercedes: the secret molecule in Petronas petrol!It's called Cedric Cornebois. Is an engineer Mercedes that few days strengthened the group directed by Mattia Binotto, after the French engineer has completed the period of gardening leave started in September. It is not a first line, but an engineer who for the past three years has seen the birth and grow to Brixworth the envied motor Mercedes PU 106A. Along with Wolf Zimmermann, German arrived at Maranello from AMG, here's another specialist who has led to useful information about Ferrari unit of three-pointed star that has monopolised the season 2014 collecting 19 wins out of 16 Gp!
THE "HOLE" IN THE RULES HE FOUND JAMES ALLISON
Ferrari are working hard on 059/3 power unit with 32 counters that the FIA regulation grants in 2015. The changes will be diluted over the course of the Championship, after the Chairman, Sergio Marchionne, and team principal, Maurizio Arrivabene, got an important political victory that does not impose to freeze the engines at the end of February, as James Allison, dt del Cavallino, had found a "hole" in the rules, not being written for the freezing date 2015.
500 BAR pressure in NEW INJECTION SYSTEM
In Maranello are perfectly aware that they will not be able to introduce any changes on the power unit before the start of the Championship in Melbourne, but they have planned a series of interventions in the upper part of the engine which are drastically reduce the gap by Mercedes. Some developments relate to the direct injection that will finally get to 500 bar pressure thanks to the injectors of the Magneti Marelli and adequate gasoline pump, while the 6 cylinder turbo last year do not exceed 350 bar. Other interventions are oriented on the Pistons that are developed in collaboration with AVL in Sports Management and overeating: Ferrari will be turbine and Honeywell's largest compressor that will require larger heat exchanger, maintaining the current location, with the two elements next to each other and not separated as the Mercedes engine.
THE ... PETRONAS PETROL SURPRISE
Is emerging, though, that one of the highlights of Mercedes would be the gasoline of Petronas. Giuseppe D'arrigo, anile European Manager Petronas Lubricants International, has never "quantified" the advantage that Elkton technicians were able to guarantee to the Mercedes, but there were those who whispered in the paddock by 10 seconds at the Grand Prix.
A FUEL THAT IS FORTY HORSES?
Ferrari would have discovered that the fuel effect on power unit of silver arrows may have been even greater: there are those who talk of some forty horses is the result of "chemistry". An enormity, if one considers that the regulation on fuels is binding as imposing petrol with similar characteristics to those who go to the Distributor pump. The argument, of course, is top secret, and Maranello are well stitched mouths, disproving any inference.
AN ADDITIVE FOUND BY CHEMISTS OF VILLASTELLONE?
Petronas scientists found on the outskirts of Turin, where there is a research centre in Moscow (the Malaysian have acquired an Italian excellence that was of the Fiat group...), in collaboration with the "chemicals" made by Mercedes, would find a new additive that would make the Petronas fuel much more anti-detonating the competition ones, allowing you to find the best MBT (Maximum Brake Torque)by varying the turn-on time to ensure the most effective flame propagation in the combustion chamber that can translate into a significant increase of power in addition to a reduction in consumption. Two data emerged very clearly in the 2014 season and ...
NO SMARTS, ALL ADJUST
The first, to avoid unnecessary controversy. It is a perfectly regular petrol type that the FIA has repeatedly checked and approved. No tricks, then, but the result of a very deep work that would give incredible results. In Maranello the mouths sewn, but there sorprenderemmo at all if it were "simulated" the miracle of Petronas gas with additives prohibited (remember the toluol was the first turbo?) by regulation to achieve the same calorific value, to see that data would also with the much reviled 059/3. In short, you would discover that the engine which cost way to Luca Marmorini in spring, from a point of view, perhaps endothermic wasn't quite so disastrous as it was passed?
MCLAREN HAS SUFFERED DIFFERENT GASOLINE?
If we find a confirmation, we can recall that McLaren, last year, did not use the Petronas fuel to power the turbo 6-cylinder Mercedes, preferring the Mobil gasoline, which is bound by a contract of longtime sponsorship. The engines dedicated to MP4-29 ran onto a sandbank Brixworth different from those used for the Mercedes engines, Williams (he used Petronas though has a sponsorship contract Petrobras) and Force India. And perhaps it is no coincidence that the team of Mallya, who had a much lower budget than that of Woking, was for a long time in front of the McLaren in the constructors that Dennis ' team has finished fifth place finish. Of course the MP4-29 was not a lightning war (the suspension to "Shutter" will be abiurata this year), and it is said that in the second half of the season could also count on help Petronas to cling to at least fourth place in the world in teams ...
THE SHELL MUST NOW REACT QUICKLY
The "pressure" now will be transferred on the Shell that is Ferrari's fuel supplier: English specialists have supported the team of Maranello with a series of gasoline which have been evolved in the course of the season 2014, but without achieving the results achieved by Petronas. The 2015 Championship, therefore, opens with a new line of research that might affect the performance of the car that will run for the first time on the track from 1 to 4 February in Jerez, in the first collective test session. Indeed the British had found a chemical additive (ferrocene?) can "give" 40 HP, but was corrosive of different parts of the V6, starting with the candles (but not only) for which was not guaranteed the "life" of the engine for the cycle of five Gp. and without reliability would not have gone anywhere.
AND WHETHER THE ADDITIVE WAS IN THE LUBRICANT?
There are those who argue that prohibited additives in gasoline, can be taken to the combustion chamber through the lubrication system, "pescandoli" from the bottom of the V6 Turbo. All OEMs would have conducted the tests, but you must make the molecule drawing between the piston segments, significantly increasing oil consumption that is not ideal if you want to keep under control the reliability. In short, a road passable, but full of risks and difficulties. And this is the beauty of f. 1 which always tries a clever way to ensure legally what the rules prohibit and. ..
ARRIVABENE IS EXPECTING A NICE REACTION
Maurizio Arrivabene is aware that Mercedes has the best package yet developing the unbeatable W05 Hybrid, but team principal del Cavallino is confident Ferrari can trace china, pointing perhaps to those two or three victories at Christmas lunch with reporters might seem just a hope, but that in his head might materialize in the second part of the 2015 season. Maybe with the "right" fuel and ...
