Looks like Massa won't take part in tomorrow's race, hope he has a speedy recovery.

warning, a bit graphic.

+1 to a speedy recovery. I think he's lucky to have got out of that one with his life

Felipe Massa's huge qualifying crash in Hungary was triggered when the spring from the third damper on Rubens Barrichello's Brawn came loose. It hit the F60 firstly just in front of the cockpit (right arrow - near the triangular engine cut-off sticker), before then striking the cockpit's side...

How did it bounce up to hit him like it did, when you watch the footage there isnt a car anywhere near him?

Apparantly he has a fractured skull?

Why couldnt this happen to lewis (oops did i just say that out aloud) :banana:

I'd prefer if it happening to YOU. :laugh::):)

Neil.

Good on Webz for stealing 2nd in the drivers championship :angry:

Was funny seeing Flav with briefcase in hand leaving the circuit with about 20-30 laps left and his 2nd driver in 12th spot....I think that says it all for NP career :)

I hope Massa has a speedy recovery...another of those 1 in a million accidents that reminded me of the Surtees one last week or so. After they slowed the footage down and you could see the part strike the car and driver, watching it in real time is scarey as it happens so fast you can't see the spring! It is never good to see a driver hurt like this but is a stark reminder of why you need to pull cars into the pits to rectify things like exhaust pipes hanging by a thread and dangling around on an F1 car...

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
