Unless I'm mistaken Richard, wasn't that the 107% rule? Not 110%...

Either which way I agree with Webbers statements too, it goes for most sportsmen in general...

1989 grand final, when Dipper and Dermy both played on with a punctured lung and bruised liver respectively, both with internal bleeding and both winding up in hospital post game.... Now look at the pansyfl.... All full of do-gooders and soft-cocks...Everyone may as well give up and play soccer and badminton.. Motorsport has definitely gone the same way..

I believe it may have been changed from 107% to 110% before they finally got rid of it. I guess the FIA decided they'd rather have a full grid than a field of decent cars, much like this year.

lulz - sneaky little kents. Might make 10km/h more on the straights.

Goooo Team!

Payback for '09 diffuser. Will be funny if the other teams don't have the chassis design to accomodate it :P

More interested then ever about some of the inner team battles.

My thoughts Alonso to pip Massa. Lewis to be comfortable against Button.... Just how good is Rosberg and hwo much did the surgery and injury affect Webber last year? COME ON WEBZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5 hours to go to P1 2010! :cheers:

I am working in Singapore at the moment and our office is just down the road from a Ferrari dealership. Well about 3 hours ago ther ewas about 15-20 cars from Californias, F430 and a few Scuds and 599s all driving down the road in formation. I am wandering if its a group hand feed / admiration thing coinciding with the kick off for F1 2010

Webz has broken the car ... again. I want to know what the full story was with Geoff Willis (was former technical director at RBR) leaving mid last year. The car was unreliable befor ehe joined, and sicne leaving the car has gone back to its unreliable 2007 ways...just like Jag used to be and often Newey cars are ??? :blush:

FP session 2 Commentary

14:15

Hamilton reports that his rear tyres are destroyed after just four laps.

14:16

That does not bode well, because he is on the hard tyres.

14:16

The softs are even more fragile.

14:16

What's more he only has two sets of each compound to use during practice.

14:17

Tyre wear on heavy fuel loads is a serious concern in the hot weather in Bahrain this weekend. What we don't know about Hamilton's destroyed tyres is how many laps he had already put on them in the first session.

I agree we don't have much of an idea as to how many laps those tires MAY have done prior to FP2, but either way... LOL, given any hot GP's this year, and I think anyone could safely discount Louise... Unless he tweaks and adjusts his aggressive driving style this side of soon...

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
