Webbers not running light either

For the 2009 season, the FIA are making public the weights of all cars ahead of the race start to help give an idea of relative fuel loads. The cars that made Q3 are weighed after qualifying, while the weights of the remaining cars must be declared by their teams shortly after the session.

Below is the provisional grid for the German Grand Prix with each car's weight. Note - Toyota’s Timo Glock has dropped from 19th to 20th after being penalised for blocking Renault’s Fernando Alonso during qualifying.

1. Mark Webber, Red Bull, 661kg. - roughly lap 20

2. Rubens Barrichello, Brawn GP, 647 - lap 14

3. Jenson Button, Brawn GP, 644 - lap 15

4. Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull, 661 - lap 20

5. Lewis Hamilton, McLaren, 654.5 - lap 17/18

6. Heikki Kovalainen, McLaren, 664.0 - lap 21

7. Adrian Sutil, Force India, 678.5 - lap 28

8. Felipe Massa, Ferrari, 673.5 - lap 26

9. Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari, 674 - lap 26/27

10. Nelson Piquet, Renault, 676

11. Nick Heidfeld, BMW Sauber, 681

12. Fernando Alonso, Renault, 668.2

13. Kazuki Nakajima, Williams, 683.6

14. Jarno Trulli, Toyota, 683.7

15. Nico Rosberg, Williams, 689.6

16. Robert Kubica, BMW Sauber, 673.5

17. Sebastien Buemi, Toro Rosso, 674.5

18. Giancarlo Fisichella, Force India, 662.5

19. Sebastien Bourdais, Toro Rosso, 689.5

20. Timo Glock, Toyota, 662.3

Also I've added a rough estimate of when they should be pitting for fuel provided driver and car = 605kg and including formation lap etc as the nurburgring should be about 2.4/2.5 kg of fuel per lap, so if all goes well tomorrow and pending strategies should be

webber

vettel

and I'll have to say sutil if he goes incident free followed by the brawns but ofcourse being a Ferrari supporter I'd like them to be able to build enough of a lead over the brawns and come in to the top 5 if they get their strategies right!

If Webz gets up tomoz i am going to hit the town and shag any Indian bird that will have me and call all our offspring Webz!!!!!! :)

Sounds better than this offer...

A few simple words. FFS get it off the line Mark. I WILL run down the main roa of Hyderabad naked if he gets up for his first win...come on Webz!

That would do more damage to Aust/Indian relationship than any thugs could do here.

Cant i do both, i mean the shagging bit wont take more then a few seconds :D

And amazing effort from Sutil. He really seems to shine in the variable conditions, based on his fuel load he could very well of been even higher. He has a flexible race strategy from where he is on the grid and could be in for a great result

I so hope Webz gets up this weekend, but at the same time will be massively pissed off i am not there, especially when you think that a friends workmate has my ticket to ther Ford Kurve grandstand :)

Awesome. What date is it? I am in and out of Singapore and have free accom there. What are the tickets worth? Just stay away from the Four Floors and you will have a great trip :thumbsup:

I was meant to be in Germany for this weekend, but again my leave was d1cked by project delays. So flogged off the GBP415 ticket to my mate from the UK who was going to meet me there...but have other plans now :3some: But still need to ensure that i do my 3 GPs in 2009 promise. Asian GPs are far cheaper then European GPs

Cheers roy, i am almost counting down the days ;) It starts about september 25 or 26, im there for 5 or 6 days. The ticket was around 1100-1300 AUD, i try to forget these things but i can check if you really care. I made sure i got a seat about half way up the grandsand so i can see over the fence. Its actually at the end of the turn one grandstand almost at the start of the second one, they pretty much touch each other. From there i have a good view of the first 3 turns, a massive screen and can see the drivers come out of pit lane at the end of the straight just before turn 1.

Anyway it is fkn awesome to see webber finally get pole, fingers crossed he can get his first win tonight :)

Geezus, the Malaysian GP tickets were only $600 or so and that was for the main stand with awesome view of a bunch of corners. So much for Asian GPs beng cheaper :3some: Hopefully this project will be over by September and i will be back in the office in Singapore...but not likely :thumbsup:

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • 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.
