I read on F1.on.net that Mark Webber revealed in a radio interview that it was "More likely than not" he would be driving for Jaguar next year, replacing fast Eddie.

It's a step up, albeit a rather small one. I would image the money is significantly more though.

I don't know about Eddie's chances of getting a contract with another team either... he talks way too much.

Also, Villeneuve may be considering a return to CART next year. I really hope this doesn't happen!

Mark to Jaguar has been around for a while. Probably go through too.

But an intersting event today is the signing of Panis to Toyota and both McNish and Salo dropped (surprised that Salo was dropped!)

Leaves a seat at Toyota....Webber maybe, Massa has a chance since dropped by Sauber for Heniz..

I'd really really like to see Briscoe get a go in the Toyota....now that would be great.

Formula 1 Online can reveal that Jos Verstappen will be racing for the Toyota team in 2003, alongside Olivier Panis. The Dutchman has been without a drive this season after being dropped by Arrows at the last minute, but is to be named this weekend by the Japanese team as their second driver for the coming season.

The popular Dutchman would bring in sponsorship money, but also a wealth of experience which has been gained over the past 8-years in F1.

Toyota yesterday announced that they were dropping both Allan McNish and Mika Salo, but have so far only announced Olivier Panis' to drive next season.

Verstappen and manager Huub Rothengatter will be present for the Belgian Grand Prix, and current plans are to confirm the deal on Friday.

I hope Webber goes to Toyota. Simply they have a way bigger budget and want the crown. Jaguar/Ford, they have held the crown before so not much in proving anything anymore.

Also, Verstappen may be quick and exprienced, but Panis is also. I reckon you have one expreienced and one young gun. The exprienced will lead the young one and one day, maybe you'll have a F1 champ.

      R32 non hicas power steering solenoid issues!

      By D.phantom · Posted

      So I’m having issues with my power steering. the obvious heavy and light and comes on and off randomly now it’s constantly heavy. I’ve read through forums regarding this issue and what I’ve gather is that it’s referring to hicas deletion. That’s the problem mine didn’t come with hicas.    I’ve rebuilt the steering rack, pump, changed the bent hardline on the rack and taken out the solenoid to clean and loosen up the actuator, applied 12v to get it moving. Roughly checked the loom to see if there’s any damage to the loom and nothing. Now I’m checking the wiring. I’ve tested the wiring to the solenoid and it’s fluctuating between 0.07v to 0.03v. Does anyone know what it’s supposed to be reading? 5v? Anyone one know how this all works? Is there a fuse in between? What else is it connected to? How does it connect to the speed sensor? A resistor fried in the ecu? Please help. It’s been years Thanks in advance

      Chips/Dents in wheels

      that's pretty good condition, those chips are nothing. Get a mobile repairer to sort it out. Nice wheels, I had white 17's on my GT-R once, looked nice.

      3D printing fun

      By Sean'O · Posted

      Howdy friends, So this evening I had a need to remove the rear compressor turbo pipe (long story, but I'm replacing it due to a bolt snapping off in the pipe and managing to then snap an extraction bit in the broken bolt, fun times -_-). The rear bolt is a bit of a bastard and very little room to get good leverage. I was able to get a 12 mm socket onto the bolt head, but none of my ratchets were able to fit, so I put together a "stubby" socket wrench to get it out and it worked surprisingly well 🙂. In the past I've "made" tools by cutting down spanners and bending them with a torch etc, but this 3D printed wrench was way less effort. I'll be keeping this one in my "special tool draw" from now on for sure ^_^b https://www.printables.com/model/868973-half-inch-stubby-socket-wrench
