If he was smacking the field about winning most races with a massive points lead I could possibly see him retiring but he's been fighting for the last few championships and I don't think he's about to give up yet.

F1 will be rather dull without MS that's for sure!

Kovalainen replaces Alonso

62854.jpg

Having confirmed Giancarlo Fisichella as a 2007 race driver last June, Renault announced this morning that current test driver Heikki Kovalainen, 24, will race alongside him in 2007

looks like Raikonnen is off to Ferrari next year... its a pity, would have loved to have seen him in the same car as Alonso to see what they could do against each other. Still, that one less piece in the jigsaw puzzle. Bring on Monza!!

yeah, it should have been webber fisi, or webber kovalenien. either way I'm still reeling from the fact that webber could not put together a deal at renault. even with his manager running that team. I reckon he has once again been screwed by flava flav.

the only, and i mean ONLY, reason i can see why Renault kept Fisi is to help kovalenien get adjusted to the car for race weekend setup and technical info guidence... but thats a pretty weak argument...

i think he kept him cause of the whole "will renault continue in F1" debarcle a few months back. All the second tier drivers we either gone, or going to other teams already and Renault must have though that keeping the team stable with Fisi was the best option. Webber would have kicked his Roman ass all year if they snapped him up

a sad day for F1. I'm very sorry he didn't do a final year farewell tour next year. that would have been great, and would have gaurenteed sell out crowds at every F1 race on the calendar.

let's hope he can seal up this years WDC and leave in style.

a great man, and a great racer. Certainly in the top 3 drivers of all time. 7 (8?)WDC will never be replicated in my life time.

:D

I can't beleive that I missed the race. I haven't missed one in years, but I just completely forgot it was on last night.

Probably good that i didnt stay up to watch it though as i was already tired and was up at 4:30am today.

:(:(:D MS leaving, I read it at 4:30 this morning when I woke up, and was upset...then I saw he won last nights GP, and that Alonso had a DNF!!!! that makes the gap 2 points now?!

If he has to retire this year, I hope he takes the title on his way out!

Benm: Upload the entire race for me please ! lol

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
