Crashed was an understatement, why would you push that hard on the last lap when he had no hope of catching button. "oh i was going to catch button and use my KERS to get past him on the finish line, just like in the movies"

Also why wasn't he classified as DNF?

Edited by PHaT MR30

I think it's because he was in 3rd place at the time of the accident and he would be the last driver on the lead lap at the end of the race. But still I don't know why he was pushing so hard on the last lap.

Poor Webber, first retirement of the season but it does takes take a big hit on the championship. I'm still watching what's going to happen at Brawn over the last 4 races...will team orders come into play or will Ross Brawn let them slug it out for the championship

On a side note...I can't take Kimi seriously with that shaggy long hair of his...just doesn't suit him.

team orders for Brawn would be to slug it out...after the Renault thing I don't think it would be wise for any team to ask a driver to move aside if the other driver was a legitimate candidate for the WDC.

At the end of the day I don't think Brawn would care who won as long as it was one of their drivers and if they fight it out to the death they're looking at a 1-2 finish in the WDC too.

Honda must be spewing :P

If Honda was still there...then the team wouldn't be where it was - the Honda engine apparently wasn't all that powerful. I remember Ross Brawn saying that the chassis was really good but the he needed a better engine package

I predict the current season will be the high point in Webbers career, with him finishing 2nd or 3rd in the WDC

actually, scrap that; He's on for 3rd or 4th, assuming he doesn't get taken out by n00bs in the opening corners of the remaining races or any reciprocating engine components deciding they want to see what fresh air feels like

Fark hamilton what is going on man! Got a bet on with a mte he will beat kimi on pts this year, i dont want to be paying up either

Im off to the next race in singaopre, hopefully a better result there. Fingers crossed either hamo or webber can win fuhck teh brauns!

    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
    • lol already been put in temporarily 3 years ago
    • Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
