the monster is the last of a species in current F1... hopefully Alonso and kimi keep up their Suzuka action cause no-one else is gonna do it

well what a boring ass race. the first 10 mins were great. the rest was a bit ho-hum. good to see MS punish them just like the good ol days, but a shame massa couldn't do his job properly which meant MS only takes 2 points away from sanchez. that sucks.

webber. well no comment there. his season is going no where. badly in need of a new car/new team.

I agree - first lap aside, that was one of the most boring races of the season (bad trend developing here...the last few races have been similar).

Highlights of the race...

1) Jenson Button talking up his great race pace in an interview after getting to a fantastic 12th place before retiring (despite the fact that the majority of people he passed were parked in a pit garage) - what an idiot!

2) Next to no mention of Jenson Button during the race.

I feel sorry for Webber. The guy is trying hard and clearly outperforming the car and yet he still can't finish a race in that Williams shitbox. It's sad, but Williams are on a fast track to the F1 scrap heap the way they're going - they couldn't even match the pace of the Torro Rosso's during the majority of the race which is just plain embarassing really.

I just hope for Webber's sake that he gets a seat with a decent team for next year to allow him to demonstrate his true potential as I doubt Williams will be competitive any time soon (if ever again!).

Is his contract up next year?

William's option over Webber ends in two weeks, so he is open to go elsewhere if they dont sign him up. But thinking about it, what seat will he realistically get? Ppl say Renault, but i just dont know. Thiessen loves him from their time at Williams, so could replace JV. There is a seat at McLaren, i dont know there are a few seats around, but im a bit concerned if Williams dont retain his services then Webber may lose out in the musical chairs that will be what is Kimi and MS doing :wave:

that would be a dream come true. he would never win a world championship as a no.2 ferrari driver but he would certainly be on for some wins. i reckon he would make a good team mate for MS too. plus they both have massive jaws. match made in heaven.

yeah troy i'm a bit worried too as everyone will be watching to see what happens with MS and kimi, but i think MS will come back next year in ferrari and kimi will stay at mclaren or maybe move to renault. it's a bit hard to guess though. i'd love to see webber in a ferarri or big mac or even god help us a renault.

So Flavio doesnt want Webber in the Renault...that tells me something.

You would have to think that Flavio has his paws in Kimi, just to piss Ron Dennis off no doubt :)

There is some talk around that Frank wanted Montoya back at Williams because he could have gotten him pretty cheap. With Wurz and Rosberg at Williams in 2007, Frank stands to save a fair wad of money, as a stalling point for signing Webber has been the scheduled pay increase if his 3rd year option was taken up.

So its not unimaginable that Frank spends the money on engineering when he has two very capable drivers in Wurz and Rosberg...so with Renault wanting Kimi, and most likely to get him, where does that leave Webber?

Red Bull and BMW?????? Most likely BMW as MT rates him highly, but then again if Flavio can swing a Renault engine deal the way of Red Bull then perhaps Webber can get a foot on the door with his old team, a team whom he got a long with really well from the Jaguar days

FUX0R. I was so hopinhg webber could pull together a deal with renault, or mac or fezza. this year of all years held the best opportunity. with alonso moving, juan leaving a seat free, schui not having a rock solid wing man... all those things told me this was webbers best shot at a big dollar big team big budget drive... instead we get another year with the sheltered workshop at grove.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
