schuey is the f**king man. no doubt about it. I sooo hope he can take out the WDC one last time. It's just so sad that after 2 more races we will never get to see him race an F1 car. especialy considering he is still the class of the field. look at qualifying, the next bridgestone runner was webber in 14th!! sure massa did quali 10th but still...

maybe he will end up in DTM with frentzen and hakkinen and some of the other past F1 drivers. that would be interesting.

that was an awesome race, loved the pass as fisi was coming out!! looked like schumacher was making some risky passing chances with the car on and off wet patches all the time, was awesome to watch!

alonso looked pretty pissed off after the race... schumi was sort of going to say congrats and alonso just stormed off! not very nice, so sucked in alonso, you lost, handle it wanker!

i also really hope that schumi can win this final year, he looks excited at the challenge rather than worried which is a good sign :D

im really pissed off i never ended up going to watch the f1 now that schumacher is leaving!! DAMMIT!!!!

i hope that happens as Alonso would be even more pissed....

i meant between Sato and schumi... but yeah, i suppose Alonso is in there with a chance aswell... btw, loved Sato's move in turn one on his team mate, very professional

the hairpin on the final lap was another fantastic example of his talent...

Sato disqualified, Albers punished

yeah that was f**ked up with heidfeld, sato, rubens, button and de la rosa. when i saw it unfold I thought webber was about to move up about 4 spots up the finishing order! Sato is a nutter. I think he must have had a bit of brain fade and forgotten the fact that he was a lap down. cause he was trying to mix it up, or perhaps he was trying to take one for honda and hold up heidfeld so that button could get the move done. on top of that rubens came storming in like a mad man. It looked to me like he wouldn't have made the hairpin anyway cause he absolutely nailed the back of heidfeld.

alonso looked like a kid missing a lolly at the end. dirty f**ker. i hope he does loose it on countback after they are tied on points.

shame that massa was pretty much MIA all weekend. even without the penalty he would have been only 10th on grid. also a shame that kimi wasn't there to get between MS and alonso. and funny how no-one questions renault team orders of fisi slowing right down over the last 15 laps in order that alonso could catch and pass him easily.

if you could give Sato one reprieve, its that he had four cars hurtling towards him, all trying moves down the inside. In my opinion i think Button saw what was going to happen and intentionally squeezed hiedfeld behind Sato and poor Rubinio really had nowhere to go...

still either way you look at it... its all a Hondas fault

hahah glad someone said it. no one seems to want to mention 'team orders' when its anyone but ferrari :(

I just finished watching the race just then, but I had stayed away from everything so as not to know the result.

Great race! I was getting excited at a few stages throughout it, but had to control myself...i'm always on the edge of my seat until MS actually crosses the line and wins. Not that it often does for ferrari, but there's just so many little things that can go wrong when you think its over, and that'd be it.

I love how MS looks like he's just one his first GP each and everytime he wins one. awesome stuff

just amazing.. 91 grand prix wins and he would do any toyota ad proud :P

that was a great race, this year has been an absolute cracker. i've got hungary and the sphincter of the universe captured to DVD and i'm capping this race as well.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
