Well it seems RBR dont want to win the championship, rather they want to leave the door open for Alonso. From what i can gather of the Korean GP layout McLaren and Ferrari will be stronger then RBR....so Alonso can easily sneak in there for the WDC. Rather if they had pite Webber 2 laps earlier then Vettel he would have got the over and under done and the WDC would be looking a lot better for one of their drivers!

But, at least it will be good to see whoever wins it will be winning it on merit.

/...and again. How good was Kobayashi!!!!

So, both RBR drivers were slapped on the wrists...."recpect one another children" ... but this weekend is going to end in tears for RBR.

It seems clear already, this early in the weekend that they are racing themselves. RBR dont chase the timesheets on Fridays, my memory tells me every time they have been comfortably quicker in FP1 then they only ended up going quicker and gapping the other teams

So, this weekend seems to be the sphincter of the universe Rd2....Vettel wants points, is desperate for points and Webber will need this win with his team mate behing him to give him a gap to Alonso, and put Vettel out of the running. Assuming Webber, Vettel Alsonso (Maybe Kuz can sneak into 3rd???) then it means Webber will have 21 points on Alonso and 28 on Vettel....

IF, we reverse it and Vettel bags 1st with Webber behind him it means Webber only has 14 points to both Alonso and Vettel....surely this is far too tight for RBR going into the final 3 races. Dont think RBR or Webber want the win given to him....but Webber really needs to show the pace he has shown in past years at Suzuka this weekend as he has a quick team mate and its critical he beats him this weekend.

Playing with the numbers, if Webber bags a win in the next 4 races it really only means he needs 3 3rds to sew it up provided Sebv doesnt win the other 3.

So, if there are any side by side action, is it going to be another bash-clash lottery dip to see who still has a drivable car? I suspect Vettel will ptu Webber to the sword thinking Webber will protect his points lead and take 18 points...will Mark let him push him around?????

very prophetic troy.

lol, should have been a 'switch to lean map' for seb 2 laps from the end and webber cruise past for a win and a decent lead into the final 3 races.

KING KOBAYASHI!

WORD! Kobe is the man. nothing better than repeatedly dishing the chop on the same corner lap after lap after lap. he must have been a lawnmower in the suzuka circuit run off and infield as a teenager and has studied every square milimeter of tarmac on those lazy summer lawn mowing expeditions.

he's the new taku without all the senseless crashes.

yeah they are nuts. all this 'we don't favour anyone' strategy (if you can call it that) is going to cost them a WDC any moment now. unless webs can battle through (god I hope he can). come on old son!!!!!! GO WEBBER!!!!

I'd love to see Alonso take another one, I can't see it happening though (prove me wrong Fernando!).

As long as Vettel doesn't win it...

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
