fantastic i know

webber seems to spend half his racing life stuck behind trulli. FFS just take him OUT mark!

[Necx0]

A similar wind tunnel rumour sprung up about Honda last year.....turned out to be a product of the media.

that's what i am talking about.

(wishes he could photoshop a bullbar and big mud flaps on Webbos car )

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.

I know for a fact a few teams PR dept flatey refuse to speak to Saward because of all the bullsht he prints...he gets all his info 2nd hand from those teams which makes him print even more bullsht

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.

[gtr660hp]

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

On to bigger and better news... wait for the new honda bodywork to come out.

Apparently Mclaren now have an unofficial B team, you heard it here first

[ctjet]

and the new wing is sex btw...

love the new colors... hope they stay

[djr81]

This B team thing is one of the worst things to happen to F1. Now everyone will need a B team to get enough testing data. Why didn't they just leave things alone?

[gtr660hp]

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:

nothing wrong with having twice as many cars on the grid in my book.....f1 grids even at 22 cars look way too empty.
