Or they could just fuel him slightly less so that he qualifies slightly higher (5-8 instead of 8-12) so that he has better track position in the first stint because it's easier to hold someone up behind you than it is to overtake someone doing a similar lap time.

yeah good point. but i think the problem with that he may not actually qualify better than that with the same car and setup.

team stratergy will work out. it will fall into place at some stage. Almost did in canada.

Quoted from greman newspaper and translated into english...

Sounds like a typical Joe Saward piece of bullsh!t. He basically makes up whatever he wants & reports his opinion as fact or occasionally as conjecture. More often than not he is completely wrong.

As the quote goes "Writing fiction is great, you can make up just about anything."

He is one reason why I never used to buy Motorsport News. Although now you don't have to pay for it.

It does explain to some extent whay we havent seen any sort of aero upgrades recently... Mclaren, BMW, Williams even Honda have introduced parts recently. You'd think Ferrari would be right up there pumping out aero pieces to keep up with Mclarens rate of development, but no. This week is the first week in some time that they're adding new aero parts on the car.

Just seemed like a logical explanation...

Well it's plausable. Which is the kindest thing you can say about some of his stuff.

Unfortunately for peeps like me Ferrari are dropping the ball in many areas this year and it starting to show up now the season is getting serious. I know of maybe a big aero upgrading coming but not until August which is way to late in the year. I think maybe some of those key members leaving is starting to filter through

Im with you there, typical Mclaren, more data for Dennis's mob. Calling Honda a 'B' team is a complement going on there discraceful performance this year...maybe the 'Z' team would be better.

Well it isn't actually Ron Dennis' fault. More of a case of getting a deal done whilst he cane & whilst it can benefit McLaren. The rule shouldn't have changed - each entry should be required to use a different constructor. Back in the day companies such as Lola & March supplied heaps of chassis.

& yep Honda suck wang this year. Hopefully they will improve.

Lewis Hamilton stacked his Vodafone go kart at an event today!!

ahaha, lets hope thats the only wipeout he has this year!! it was a total noob mistake! :laughing-smiley-014: :laughing-smiley-014:

check it, helmet cam style. :D:)

    • 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.
