hammo throwing it sidewayzzzzz

vettel looks like he just needs mark to hold onto his tail in the race, and he's got it.

I think Vettel will definately tussle for the win with Alonso and maybe hammo, but mark will be somewhere in the top 5... Shafting noobody but himself

But here is the thing, forget the fastest time, track isnt fully rubbered in and a whol ehost of reasons why the fastest lap is not so important....did anyone notice on the long runs the RBRs were 0.5-0.8 secons a lap quicker with full tanks and the option tyre! Their race pace looks convincing for one of the few times on a Friday

How the hell is button so much slower than lewis? and why isnt anybody giving him a hard time like they are for massa's shit pace

I think he's mentally finally accepted his number 2 roll in that team.

And webber... come on man. You need to get in front of that fucking german, he's clearly been faster for months now, and if really want this title your going to have to work just a little harder for it

He needs to get in front of that Spaniard, let alone the German :)

Hamilton being fastest is actually good for Alonso. I hope Redbull pull something out today.

All over after P2...

Time to grab a cup of nice warm tea and calm down.

I know, I was just being melodramatic :P:O

When they say each driver only gets 8 engines for the year, is that just the block? Are they allowed to fully rebuild the engines and replace all internals? If not, what's to stop them doing it anyway, since the FIA can't be monitoring those engines 24x7?

Thought they couldn't open them up. They have a few of those little stickers around the engine joints saying "void if broken" :P

the bolt heads would be sealed with tamper-proof indicators

it's not as if they just trust the teams not to open 'em up

back when it didn't matter, Ferrari used to go through around 150 engines per season...

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
