Anyone remember MS accusing David Coulthard of trying to kill him at Spa years ago? I know it was a long time ago but still, fairly rich of MS to say something like that and then pull an even worse stunt on Barrichello

ive been watching the pitlane incident over and over and cant help but think that the renault lollypop man saw the wheel off rosbergs car coming and moved, which accidently released his driver into the path of the force india. might just be the camera angle but it all happened at the same time.

It was a zoo in pitlane so who really knows. I happen to think that he saw the Renault coming and forgot in the heat of the moment that Renault were the next garage up...i think he assumed the car was going through and had already stopped. ??! But who knows, could be that silly, Renault have been next to them all year

How can you say it was a boring race? Even if you werent a Webber fan, different strategy, a penalty meaning one of the quickest cars had to race for position. But the chess game of lap after lap trying to pull that advantage was great viewing. Whether it was Webber, Massa or Vettle....it was graeat viewing. Seeing Rubens have a blast for the last few laps....i thoughts there was plenty to watch...a good GP

I was thinking the exact same thing!

book it into your calendar

i wonder if they will just get a slap on the wrist. I dont mind team orders it makes sense. I thonk it will be hard to prove it was a team order rather than massa using his brain and supporting the team. I think ferrari will say they gave massa the info and let him make up his mind.

Good to see ferrari closing the gap will be interesting to see how close they are at spa

loving the webber leap! reminds me of the schuey leap and it didn't hurt his win record! also reminds me of schuey 'conducting' the italian national anthem until some weiners took it the wrong way and got all upset about it so he stopped. fun police strike again! they can't deny it's a jaunty little tune. :D

Apparently that's what happened, supposedly he was distracted. I don't mean to sound harsh but isn't it the job of the lollipop guy to not be distracted, even when it's crazy? I'm not saying it's easy but he's the one who's trusted to keep his head in those situations.

lol. word :/

he is certainly getting the height to get the job done on the little bastard.

Can you just imagine it? Webber *accidentally* clips Vettel, Vettel goes ape-poo, a punch-on breaks out resulting in Vettel going off the balcony WWE-style.

I disagree. The Schublocker is quite capable of running over a nun and claiming that he had to do it because she was on the racing line, or whatever he defines as the racing line. I was quite surprised that he did apologise because I've seen him righteously defend all sorts of crap over the years. I don't recall him apologising for anything (at least voluntarily) before. Maybe he's mellowing in his old age. Or maybe he's afraid of payback from Rubens. THAT I would pay much to see.

He knows the rules. Or at least you'd think He should

Pretty weak how He initially says- "I'm allowed to change line once in defence", completely ignoring the other rule about not 'crowding cars to the edge of the track'

Most ppl have probably read on PF1 by now about how if there'd been enough time in the race to review the video evidence, Mike would have been black flagged

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
