All Ferrari had to do at that first pit stop, was look at Maclaren, see what they were doing for Hammo, and copy, and add a few more laps of fuel. Then Kimi would of leap-frogged Hamilton at the 2nd pit stop. That's pretty straight forward isn't it?

Pretty impressive when Hamilton went on to be lapping 6 seconds faster than most of the field on the same tyres later on in the race. Also some big balls moves by him right at the start trying to take Kov and eventually passing him.

For Christ sake, he salvaged 4th in woeful circumstances, was it not only a couple of races ago, in predictable circumstances where Hammo couldn't even get into the points from a bad start?? 4th Was great for Kimi considering the events that unfolded, anyone would think he was lapped 10 times and finished dead last the way are talking about the Ferraris, I agree about Massa though, deft one to forget for him..

It's remarkably surprising how quickly people have forgotten his little off track excursion...

No one forgot it- He got a little taily turning in under brakes and ran out of room to gather it up before the edge of the track (understandable given the conditions)

So that was 1 minor indiscretion versus how many full spins for everyone else?. Massa went for almost 3 full rotations on one outing :D (of the many)

Sad times ahead for Williams. I will bet money that Rosberg will be gone at years end. He simpy cant afford to play ball at Williams any longer. He needs to jump ship soon before a new flock of it drivers enter the ranks.

But where to. Heidfeld needs to continue driving like a champion at BMW to keep his seat. Kubica wont be going anywhere whilst Ferrari have contracted drivers. The only teams i can see pickingup Rosberg are Renault longside Alonso or Honda.

I can only really see Alonos leaving Renault for Nicks seat at BMW, in which case Renault would kill for Rosberg over the other drivers on the market. Nick and Rosberg could be an interesting pairingat Renault. LOL, after beingtold a few weeks ago that the driver market was about to go into overdrive it looks like it has slowed down

well very dissapointing outing for my boys webber and kubica.

webber had it all for the taking. and sadly he dropped it on lap one. he looked good for a comeback and watching him move up from 18th to 10th was awesome, but why on earth the team decided to leave him on worn inters when there was more rain forecast is beyond me. that same mistake cost kimi a podium too. had webber either got new inters or even done one stint on wets he no doubt would have been up in the points. however he still maintains 8th in the WDC which is no mean feat in a red bull. still it was a big opportunity to grab a podium in a topsy turvy kind of race and he squandered it.

I don't really know what the koobs problem was but he didn't exactly cover himself in glory either.

DC and Vettel coming together was just insane. two team mates should not be coming together like that.

hamilton, well he did well. drove a neat, safe race and brought it home in P1, can't ask for much more than that I guess. except that fking martin brundle had to ruin it right at the end with another bloody 'senna' comparison. wanker.

You were right? Did anyone say Rubens did or did not make the call? That article is about Rubens. It doesnt actually clarify the Ferrari situation?!?!?!?!

Doesnt really matter a whole lot, between the pit wall and coclpit they got the call wrong. So did Renault, RBR, BMW along with Ferrari. So they were not the only ones.

What is it with posts being deleted? I am beign creeped out as it looks like i am talking to myself! Come on Adam, its only piss talk. Its not like any of what we post changes the world or matters :P I know i have no credability :down:

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
