all it proved to me is that i'm right, and alonso is a hack. sure he made plenty of moves, but where did that get him? and how many actually came off? not many.

good work kimi. nice race. and what a change to see they actually let kimi pass massa. I was shocked. not a very good strategic move for the WDC.

yeah, it was a nice move. but it could not have been pulled off without the nice cooperation of nick. had nick not yielded and taken the escape it would have been over for them both. so yeah it was bold, but it wasn't that great as without nick letting the baby have his bottle it would have ended in a "Taku special". the fact that nick got past him again also means it was all for nought.

I just don't rate alonso. he has the best car in the field so it's no surprise he is beating all the other teams. but the fact that his rookie teamate is beating him tells me alonso is not that special at all. he has been fortunate to be in the right teams at the right times with good car, good engineers, plenty of reliability.

Alonso let his frustration get to him, he was nothing but reckless and dangerous last night. Good on Heidfeld for keeping a cool head and avoiding what would have been a nasty accident.

Good on Raikkonen & Massa for a clinical one-two.

..and let's hope those biased British commentators will shut up about Hamilton soon!

yeah, there is no doubt lack of reliability and a poor descision (on MS's part) at monaco cost schuey the WDC last year not. that was what beat him. not a 'better' driver.

If your including decision making.... Hungary was a no brainer.... :domokun:

The best thing that can happen at the British GP is for Hamelton to not finish the first lap. ITV might be banging on about Hamelton, but their still 100x better than the Aus comenators that contunaly interupt.

Well, the forecast if for rain. It's been raining every damn day so far, so we might get a real idea of Hamilton's abilities.

Haven't seen him pass anyone yet. With the local paper coverage, you'd think he's wht world champ already.

The worst thing is the headlines. Here's what I mean:

"How does he Lew it?"

"Thrilled to Brits: Lewis on home turf"

"Hamilton to order out for italian at home." (This one is a bit of a reach)

"Lewis the new Tiger" (In reference to Tiger Woods. I have no idea why.)

There are more every day. When some slapper comes out of the woodwork and claims that she shagged him silly when he was 14, I'll update everyone.

Interesting article about an ex ferrari employee, handing over secret files to a McLaren tech who has been temporarily suspended. Ferrari have lauched a case in a Modena court, so I'm sure the guys will get a fair hearing:-)

cheers

Hey, young Lewis no dount has a good car under him, and no doubt a lot of support from within the team...but you cant discount teh guys ability. And you cant hate him, because surprise, surpride the media are idiots. I cringe when i see poor Mark here for the Aus GP, the questions he is asked by the average journo makes me sick. The average motoring journo is no better. I think barck to Gordon Elliott and Hard Copy :D

all it proved to me is that i'm right, and alonso is a hack. sure he made plenty of moves, but where did that get him? and how many actually came off? not many.

agreed 100%

i don't know how long you've been saying that for, but i thought that even from his 1st season at renault a strong and reliable car was the key to most of his success :)

no surprise Hamilton is quicker than him.

Renault wil be displaying a new livery for the next race, a throw back to the old days

looks shit hot i have to say, unortunately is for display only, no race use

... its only about 11 billion times better than the farce they run with now, why not run with it

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
