That's kind of how I read it too.

I'm thinking that the only team orders will be race til near the end then see where everyone is in the running order, make a call from there.

Anyone of them could bin it on the first corner, and as was mentioned, Mark has been starting pretty poorly.

This is what'll happen:

Same front grid as last week minus the Hulk-

Seb's brake rotors explode,

Mark trips over his own feet somewhere along the way,

Gonzo's engine says "smell ya later"

Lewis inherits 1st, gets second drivers title :(

But all that could just be a whole heap of unrealistically wishful thinking on my part...

Well, I cant really remember last Abu Dhabi race. McLaren and Hamilton were strong with KERS, but cant recall Ferrari being in the hunt....but this years Ferrari is a far better car...so not sure who this track will suit. I expect it to be more of a Ferrari track with the long straights and slow speed corners rather then an RBR track...so at first glance I think RBR will be figthing like hell to park both on the front row. Mark needs to find that little edge he had mid season

since I'm up on f1 bets this year, i'm thinking of throwing caution to the wind and making one crazy last punt;

say $30 on Hamo to take the WDC, for a $2000+ return?

It will either be an eopic Sunday night or one that BLOWS! No middle ground for me...and frankly RBR can bite my ass....

agree with both sentiments there buddy. either naked through the city with mark webber is #1 across my back in body paint, or sitting at home crying and punching my tv whilst my RBR cap is on fire... and yes farking RBR, they really should have let webber take brazil, those 7 points would make this weekend a much better proposition and would even them up for ferrari's dodgy-ness.

COME ON WEBBER OLD SON!!! YOU CAN DO IT MATE!!! :blush:

COME ON WEBBER OLD SON!!! YOU CAN DO IT MATE!!! :blush:

Good sentiment.

Unfortunately I reckon the finishing order will be:

The Tool.

The gimp in the cheaterer Ferrari.

All that is good & noble in F1 ie Webber.

Someone down the back behind the try hard midfielders, ie past where everyone stops caring: Hamilton.

Webebr has to qualify P1 & make a decent start. Not much hope there then. But fk it I will even promise to use the Yellow Pages again if he can pull it off.

hey, he has taken P1 in qualy before against these blokes and won before too. hell he won his first race even with a drive through if my memory is correct.

he is the master at overcoming adversity. hell by rights he is too big to even fit into an F1 car yet here he is!

GO WEBBER!!!

In some respects winning the race will do just as much for his legacy as winning the championship would.

I mean for a Ferrari fan I can't really articulate JUST how much I'm wanting Webber to win, I remember being at Melbourne to see him bag 2 points in the shitty Minardi back in 2002.. For his sake, for the sake of motorsport in this country & the much needed boost, I'm also off to the first annual Festival of Speed here in Perth, and it would be just fantastic to see Webber punt that RBR around as a world champ! Also I agree with the legacy bit, Webber is highly regarded for his mental toughness and his ability to overcome, I hope it doesn't abandon him now. However, and an almighty however.... A small part of my brain keeps telling me Mark is going to regret that spin in Korea for the rest of his life, I hope I'm wrong... Think though, imagine if he even scored 2/3/4 points on that day...

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
