but then again Mclaren have been on air pretty much every round apologising to everyone involved in F1 really

and apparently things have changed, Ron Denis resigned, so must have weighed up in the meeting

how awsome, they are making another senna film!!! woot!!! i was soooo dissapointed by the POS they released a few years ago, maily becuase i bought it for "career highlights from races" but it had NONE on there.... grrrrrr. mebe they might get it right this time and put a while heap of driving highlights on their for me to watch

also, i think the mclaren discision today was fair! they have already had a punishment by loosing their aus gp points and fired the resonsible party... they have to live with the damage done to their reputation that will come back to bit them on their ass when sponsorship gets renewed! and the fact that if they f**k up again they will get a huge penaltaly (this one and whatever they get for the next one) seems like it might keep them honest =P

i think i red somewhere that Santander Bank (spanish bank) were looking at changing sponsorship from Mclaren to Ferrari....so woot woot for Ferrari the more sponsors the better...also that Mclaren announced that by them quiting F1 wont save them any money as sponsorships that they have are for long term....so some good news there as well

EDIT: just read that Santander is moving their sponsor ship to Ferrari next yeah and also that Alonso might be coming across either next year or the year after

Completely agree with you Luke about the races being boring as f**k.....if your on pole...get a good start....have a reasonable fast car...keep out of trouble and drive hard then there you go....the race is yours i mean WTF is wrong with Bernie....wanker

i think this has all been done to get 2 or 3 more teams in for next season

agree 100%, i really really hope they change it

formula 1 got boring real quick in the late 1980's / early 1990's when they disallowed turbocharging

mid '80s the racing was always full-on

90s got boring and the past 9yrs of this century I cant recall a stand-out race.

F1 FTL :P

im supprised you ferrari guys aren't jumping up and down and rubbing peoples face's in it, the fact that for the first time this year you actually have a fast car!!! tho kimi got owned by their arrogance. sucks that webber muffed Q3, but still P5 and heavier than BrawnGPs, so hopefully massa vetil and webber for the podium tonight! =)

I was just sitting and waiting for you to say something Lukey boy :blink: lol Ferrari have certainly put a lot of work in to get the car to where it is now....compared to the start of the season....Massa did really well but sucks to see Kimi having a what looked like a hydraulic failure.....but yeah now all you Ferrari Haters....we are back and better this time around lol....

Ferrari f**ked up the qualifying again last GP with this time Raikonen being stuck in the pits in Q3 and not making the cut...wtf is wrong with Ferrari....make the drivers do a bit more laps and actually try to get both cars in the top 10....the are fast enough now...sometimes they just love to frustrate the living daylight out of their fans

dayam! What a crash on the first corner, thought Webber was out when i first saw it.

Makes an interesting start to the race.

Yeah that crash was aweful after the first corner....Trulli got tagged and on the gravel means that he was just a passenger at that stage....so not really his fault as i saw it....i dont exactly remember who hit him though....both Toro Roso, 1 Force India, 1 Toyota out before the second corner....lucky not more cars were involved and wasnt really a high speed one either so the drivers didnt suffer any injuries

dunno, commentators made a good point, that when he went off he seemed to keep the boot in it to try and not lose too much time, i think if he had backed off and just rejoined abit slower he woud have been fine, but its racing, this stuff happens.

massa only held his spot because of KERS, vettel was massively faster but the track just happened to have a airstrip as a pit straight so he hit his little magic button and got ahead again.

edit** just to cover my ass from ferrari fans, vettel first lap (lap 65) free from massa's hot air set a 1.23, after running 1,25's or higher the whole night behind massa

stoked for webber, great to see him get 1 up on vettel. wat a f**kin pass by webber coming into turn one on alonso! and that crash was nuts, precious carbon fiber every where

Edited by rhys5169

if the rules allow you to have it then why not use it.....its Red Bull's demise not having KERS.....but ahh well

still massive improvement from Ferrari on the development side of things

im not saying there cheating i just think KERS in itself goes against everything F1 set out to do this year

1) supposed to encourage passing; in reality it is helping slower cars maintain there lead, used more as a anti passing device

2) ment to be cost cutting at this current time; yet the KERS system costs mega millions to impliment and set up to get working consistently.

just pissed me off that any car thats behind a KERS car has ZERO chance of making an overaking manuver stick, there stuck in hot dirty air, finally get a chance after driving the wheels off the car for 3 laps only to have the other racer hit the magic button.

but yeh thats just how i feel, if it had been webber being blocked i would be whinging like a lil kid right now lol.

anyone keeping up to date with this whole rule/changes fiasco? berny is a friggin idiot IMO, once again ferrari is threatening to pull out but this time i tend to agree with them!lol

lol @ ferrari epic fail!!!!!! hahahaha, kimi died and they somehow misscalculated massas fuel!!!!! oh wow... if i were you guys, i'd consider jumping ship!

also notice while ferrari have seemed to improved their 1 lap pace, their race pace sucks big time!! and i think i've worked it out.. kers is actually slowing them down!!! from what it looked like last race is that their rear tyres of both ferrari and mclaren take an absoloute beating from kers (either pumping in the extra power, or the weight distribution in the car) and it means there actual race pace is crap! also because they have kers its impossible for them to be overtaken and so were are going to see these epic gaps appearing in races infront of kers cars from now on! so i say get rid of it, only the bad teams are using it to make up places off the start line coz they can't qualify high enough!

PS. so glad RBR brang webber in a lap or 2 early and long fuled him FTW!!! if he wasent cought behind massa into the first corner i'd say RBR would have taken 1/2

Ferrari fanatics never jump ship luke....thats something you should know....even in the hard times....

Ferrari went wrong at a few places on the last gp.....specially when kimi was knocked out of Q1 i mean wtf are they thinking

  • 2 weeks later...

wow what a race on the weekend

sucks to see that Kimi had a poor start but happy that both Ferrari's finished strongly in the points...and didnt have anything blowing up this time.....was interesting to see way less carnage then usual on the Monaco circuit......Brawn cars are so well setup.....and its interesting to see how demanding that circuit is for the drivers and specially 75 odd laps of that place.....Webber finished strongly in 5th and good to see in front of Niko

all up it was a good race

and buckle up boys coz the prancing horse is back.....

P L E A S E ! ! ! ! ! One race and their back??? Moncao, the place where maximum downforce is employed and anyone can win the race???

I agree though the ferrari's do look better (have a soft spot for kimi but massa is a tool) but im guessing time will tell again, not sure if they can catch the brawn GP cars at all.....Has any team won the drivers and constructors titles first year out??????

2010 rule changes.....BAH! What a load of crock...Was watching some videos on youtube last night of the 80's turbo car era...mmmmmmmm

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
