Kimi has to win dont forget.

It was an excellent result, and its a bit of justice to Ferrari as everyone is complainin about they had the best tyres etc, but Ferrrari have been serverly hindered all year from the Michelans.

So its justice me thinks.

GO SCHUEY.

Yeah, although I would like to see someone other than schuey win, he deserves it. They changed the whole format of F1 to stop him from being so dominant and he's still going to win another championship, well done.

Spewing about Webber cauz he would have got his first podium for sure, same with Button. Oh well. Should be a good race at Suzuka anyway.

:( payback time ;)

In fact the comentators made the same comment last night - montoya was 2 laps down in 6th and had to come 5th to have a chance to win championship.

Interestingly, Heidfield (5th) was directly in front of him (but only 1 lap down).....they suggested that montoya should take him out and inherit 5th....

I think webber either has bad luck or isnt the best in wet conditions when he is on the wrong tyres. I think it was in Silverstone 02' he touched the white line in greasy conditions and spun off. Brazil this year was driving around on drys and crashed out in a big way, on monday morning crashed out for a similar reason blowing a definite podium and possible 5th in the constructors championship. Webber is still an awesome driver but would somone such as MS have lost it in the same circumstances.

Interesting point. He has the speed in the wet, you only have to look at his results in the wet races from FF in Aus to driving F3 for Arrows thru to F1. He seems to get great results in the wet/gresy conditions, just look at wet qualifying sessions etc. Maybe just needs to show a little more caution.

Its hard to know the facts though, plenty of other drivers went off. In Brazil was it a rain thing, or was there somthing down on the track that made him spear off?

Webber wouldnt of finished on the podium due to the simple fact jaguar are on michelins! And take it easy on him he wasnt the only one to spin off when it got too wet. Enricco as for justise to Ferrari haha what a joke they dont deserve shite after all the moaning they made about the michelins being too wide i think the Michelin teams should protest the bridgestone wet just to fcuck them off. thats all Ferrari deserve sore losers and sore winners aahh im seeing red:mad:

I agree silver thats what schuey deserves, wonder if jacques remembers might not need dc to pull a schuey :P

I think webber would have had a good shot at the podium, the michelins didnt slow Kimi down all that much. I do think we have alot to look forward to with Webber though. I mean i think the best way to measure a driver is against his team mates. In something like 32 starts webber has been out qualified twice and has scored something like 19 points to 1 or 2 against his team mates. Ok so Alex Yoong wasnt the best benchmark, but pizzonia and wilson are both good drivers who havent yet come close to webber. Will be very interesting when he gets a drive in one of the big 4 teams.

I agree, but i would like to see him stick at Jaguar for at least one more year, which looks to be the case.

If he goes to one of the big 4, it is always difficult to establish yourself especially if there is a driver entrenched there.

You see it all the time a very capable driver is made to look less capable due to team politics. Noone doubts Mark Skaifes ability, but look when he walked into HRT and the established Lowndes was his teamate and then later with Bright, JPM into Williams with Ralf.

Even dominant teams in F1 struggle to have drivers finish 1-2 in the championship, even in the glory days of Williams with Mansell/Patrese->Hill/JV & Coutlhard, and likewise with McLaren with Berger/Senna/Prost etc etc.

Equal equipment doesnt always mean equal opportunity even in teams with no recognised No.1, engineering support, testing, whose car gets the new parts before the other, who gets the older chassis?

Just in. JV is gooone. Sata will be replacing him. Feel sorry for him. Rose to stardom then fell from grace. BAR was a big mistake.

Chances are he'll be out in the cold for 04 but Jaguar haven't signed anyone up for Webber's team mate.

Probably for 2 reasons he won't get a drive with Jordan.

1. Next year Jordan may be getting Mercedes engines. Alexander Wurz is a good recruitment cause he KNOWS mercedes engines and also has the mclarens know-how. Very valuable knowledge to be gained from him if they do get mercedes engines.

2. Jordan get extra sponsorship $ from Benson & Hedges for having an english driver. Leaves JV sh*t out of luck.

hey silver, what's this "i want to have JV's babies" thing. I'm sure the bloke can drive, but his attitude is *disgraceful*. If I was running a company sponsoring BAR I'd be looking to have him out on his arse too!

He's so busy trying to psyche out and beat his teammates that he forgets to race against his competitors....

I don't want JV's babies. But I'll have Senna's if he was still around!

Yeah since eddie ervine's gone JV's the motor mouth in the pits. Next I'd say is Ralf. Rule 1 in F1 - never bag your own team/car.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
