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

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
