yeah liuzzi flying backwards over the ripple strip was pretty hairy. the safety car did well to avoid that one! I don't think I've ever seen an F1 car collect a safety car before. and hamilton was VERY lucky not to have his big mac cleaned up by albers when he came steaming into the gravel.

yeah i agree. he was fast and passing lots of cars, but they were all pretty average cars and often he was on the better tyre at the time when he was moving forward. he made quite a few errors.

Also am I the only one surprised that alonso (or more accurately Mclaren) didn't get penalised for the way he left his pit box straight into the path of another car?

id like to see you stand there when the car is launching toward you and just misses you by inches.

id be rightly pissed and looking for a head or two to roll..

im not out there to get my legs amputated by a hotheaded spaniard..

F1 drivers arent exactly the smartest chaps in the world are they??

that arguement seemed oddly reminiscent of an Irvine senna battle a few years ago...

yeah, with him still sitting in the thing...

how he managed to get out of that is very lucky. WTF were the drivers carrying so much speed into turn one for in the first place??

"christian, there are 3 cars in the kitty litter at turn one. Please slow down and watch yourself, its very easy to aquaplane out there.."

"okey, no probleem, ill keep pusheeng!"

( now stuck in the litter )

"guys im reeely sorry for dis.. I didnt understand what you said. I need some more english practice i theenk."

yeah I would complain too. it was a bullshit decision by his pit crew to release him, and a bad one on his part not to give way to the car in the fast lane.

lol, albers was flying towards lewey. lewis certainly has some bloody good luck. cheeky little bugger.

I am just so pleased webber got a good result. it should help his career along a bit. he drove very well and kept it on the track and most importantly kept everyone else behind him. it shows for sure that he was a good driver in a poor car that he was over a minute behind second place yet still managed to keep everyone else (what was left of them) behind him.

You know what. Watching Alonso last night...he is brilliant. I do feel for Massa though. He ran well and then the rain? Well it looks like he just didnt have the tyres/car to finish the job he had been doing all day.

But again, not a fan of Alonso, but you have to sit back and respect that he is bloody good.

yeah alonso drove a good race. but how girly was his little fist punching standing in front of the podium. it was like he was a 12 year old girl in a punch up with his little arms flailing around. maybe he should go back to his animal impressions? give me schueys leap any day.

lol, at least we can all agree on that!

and massa is a bit of a man-girl as well. sure he can pick fights with gonzo but I'd like to see one of them start a fight with coulthard, or montoya...

I just watched on the News that next years Formula 1 in melbourne WILL have a later start. I dont know how late this is, and whether its night but I hope it is!!

Also V8 supercars are back next year.

Can anyone confirm on next years late start?

Massa being brazillian aside, i see your point, and i LOL'd

hmm, yeah that was a bit flawed. but in my defense i'll say that though he may have been born in brazil, if it looks like a euro fag, talks like a euro fag, acts like a euro fag and smells like a euro fag then let's just call it euro fag. sorry massa.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
