Webber just re-signed with RBR for another year on his contract till the end of 2011 !!!!???? :):nyaanyaa::spank:

That may be the end of Marks career I think. I couldnt see another team taking him up after that.

Of course it's the end of his career. Realistically he didn't have any other options. McLaren have their line-up for the next ten years I think, Ferrari appear to want to keep Massa and Alonso or replace one with a young driver. RBR are the only other decent car on the grid atm. He may have to keep reminding them he's as good a chance as Vettel to win races, but aside from that it's too late in his career to go to a new team.

I think he only had two or three years left in him in any case. He's 34 this year and most F1 drivers retire in their late 30s (unless you're a 7-time world champion who just can't let it go). F1 teams know that and few would take him now.

He`s Just MADE HIMSELF SAY $10 MILLION :nyaanyaa: for that ,So Let say THE CONTACT is worth that to anythere team so he win`s either way ,

RBR have good car so why not :yes: if was shit like they had been maybe he would look else where,

AGE well chat with Rueben`s about that & look :nyaanyaa::rofl: what he`s driving :yucky: poor bugger ,

Where was MISTER 7 :wacko: not going to well ;)

Mark`s a smart man been in the system & know`s what he`s doing ,

Good move i think,

Bet VERTOOL TO WORLD CROWN will be sweeter :nyaanyaa: for him as well (finger`s crossed for him) as it would be just reward for hard work with all the TEAM`S he has been at :thanks::wave:

Cheer`s Chuckie.

BUMP!

So this weekend they're up in Canada, with a lot of people peggin mcLaren to walk it in due to their top end speed and low drag co-efficient.

Sad to say that I don't think Webber will be in the lime light for this one, unless some F-Duct improvements have been made for him over the weekend (unlikely).

This will be an interesting GP. Lets see if McLaren can consolidate on their new found pace, or will Hamp drive into the safety car in pit lane this year?

RBR, Ferrari and Mercedes will all be trying to keep them honest and you cant help but think this race may spring a surprise with Renault.

The ol' ear nibble and reach around seems to have worked on SV, he seems pretty motivated this weekend.

I hear he was pushing the car pretty hard in P1 and P2 and topping the times in P2.

The LH and JB don't appear to be as quick as expected at this point and this track should really suit them.

its only practice- smoke and mirrors ;)

wont get a good indication until final practice, and even then fuel loads between the teams will be different. IMO mclarens will be front row after quali

I realise that practice is smoke and mirrors but someone at the track reckons SV was pushing pretty hard.

If you believe the post practice comments, LH seemed a bit disappointed in their pace in a straight line.

The McLarens should be front of the grid based on last weeks performance but the changeable weather will make it a lottery.

Man...i thought Webz had it when Hamo mesed up his lap on the softs...but he was able to make them hang in there for a well earned pole. Now will the softs fall apart, can Webz get him off the line...will Webz get a poor start from the dirty side and get chopped by Vettel?? Hell, is there a rule that the car must return to the pits after quali or is there a penalty to having to be pushed?????

    • 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
