Webber sublime!!! He definitely has the momentum at the mo!!! Hopefully he can pull off a win tomoz! Having hammo finishing 2nd would also provide a bit of a buffer to Seb.

Schumi getting one more on Rosberg, looks like he's gradually getting up to speed!! Too bad for his spin though. :D

prediction for tomorrow is for Hamilton to win if there's no gremlins. I think the car's high speed corner and straight line pace will make it easier for the mclaren to get a ahead of the RB's in the first few laps and with the pace coming out of a corner it will make it very hard to overtake them. They're at least 5km/h faster than the other cars in the speed traps and the RBs are well down on top speed.

The RB's need merc engines.

edit: also while I'm at it, did anyone see the question time post qualifying? That question from the floor about whether Webber/Vettel had gone out at incorrect times (i.e. Webber says he should have gone out last) seemed to hit a nerve in Webber and Vettel judging from their facial reactions...it seems whoever's leading the points race should call the shots on timing for things like pit stops, qualifying and the like and I think Vettel still thinks he's the "1st driver" for RB. A little competition suddenly makes things different ala Prost v Senna.

Or some F-Duct BS...Thankfully they aren't running it from next year. Really still can't see what all the fuss about homoton is about, sure he pulls some good times occasionally but he is still just a whinging little flamin mongrel when things don't go his way...

It's great how some team actually comes up with something innovative inside the scope of the rules, and everyone wants to complain incessantly about it.

If you want racing where all the cars are exactly the same, watch v8 taxicars

The tyre change today might be quite interesting. Hamilton and Webber will probably have similar race pace so the start might not decide this race for a change.

I totally agree with sh@aun on the F-duct

vettel had a broken anti-roll bar linkage, which stuck his left front in the air and explains the brake locking.

poor bastard has been so unlucky with reliability this season, and he still qualified 3rd. hope he sticks it up everyone in the race :)

Nazi lover!He is just unlucky to have a decent team mate.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
