And Alonso and went from bottle to

Dear all / os / is

I do not think this is one reason!

I admit, the title I have been a tad yellow. Begin by saying that it was not my intention to make any reference to the decade of the driver in F1 and its conclusion. The truth is that I just wanted to party, but after to see a Ferrari to change their initial cardinal efe hundred fifty one hundred and fiftieth ordinal, and then re-edit one hundred fifty degrees ("Celsius, Kelvin, sextant?) because Ford wanted it, I, a simple worker Science I preferred not to face the almighty Yankee factory to use the name of one of the models of their cars. By the way, it started. We are not able or even to baptize a model of car, how easy it was to continue the series. If this is already being complicated entoces ", as will its speed? Lamb leaves and make a nod to Italian politics and focus!

Bell Gauss

Once the title spelled out a little turn to the entry itself. Johann Carl Friedrich Gauβ was a famous German mathematician and physicist who lived straddling the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. From his childhood he showed a great awareness of the symmetry of numbers, developed at maturity various studies on different aspects of algebra and differential calculus. To him we owe what is called in statistical normal probability distribution or bell curve, although the results had been previously presented by de Moivre. As you can see, the representation is completely symmetric and has been used to explain the phenomenal performance of different sets. Broadly speaking, we can say that virtue is that a very heterogeneous population behavior is equivalent to a single example as one that is jam is the arithmetic mean (middle or highest point) . This behavior is the arithmetic average used by many scholars to anticipate our future as mass behavior, or to know what the normal values \u200b\u200bof a parameter of our body, or to tell us we have high cholesterol.

Why Alonso was allied with the prince of mathematics? If you tend to follow the statements of our flagship driver, will have as much after having made a mistake, always punctual, the errors are compensated along the season. Or what is the same, a failure or performance below the mean is offset by a hit or performance above average. His reasoning is excellent if we consider the chemical world of atoms. An atom or molecule of a gas with a lot of speed is compensated by another low speed, being the arithmetic mean of their velocities a temperature measurement. As a corollary in F1, we can say do not worry about the crap today that it will be compensated in the future.

But without leaving the world of chemistry, its scholars have realized that for a vast majority of situations, reduce all cases to the average or mean value did not serve to explain the overall behavior or outcome. For example in the world of polymers or plastics. Yes, the material that surrounds all and we want to get rid of the supermarkets to buy others to deposit our rubbish, selling this action as a very eco But you do not recycle Mercadona bag for the garbage can? I do, and it eliminates the plastic bag purchase will not remove the garbage, and all they do is transfer some costs from businesses to me. As we wrote in the plastic world of the average (10.9 in this new graph) did not explain the properties of them. However, they realized they had a weighted average, which is weighed down over the behavior above the average (geometric mean, 11.0 point in our graph) than if they correspond to the totals.

If the simple world of plastics and is not governed by the arithmetic mean, much less the ultra-complex world of F1. In this, the poor behavior so far is paid. And as shown in a season, the F-10 was designed poorly and the first lines of evolution (rather good copying the F-duct) were so bad that weighed all season, even taking into account that the final evolution of the car was quite satisfactory. Then a bad development is not worth a good one. Shock, or an exit door, not offset by a good performance.

Mr Alonso, I see you have come to know Mr. Gauβ, but I would ask an extra effort to study, to know the reality of chemicals, and understand that I could not make up shit ever with a hit. And less this year, with the tires so much fun that we promise the Pirelli guys. Have zero tolerance for failures of self and team, if you get another ace in the hull. Only deeply understand the geometric mean he will champion.
