SebVet found a "hack" in his chassis mid season last year. He sooked until he got a new one.

exactly. then mark took it and won monaco with it.... yeah what a hack... :unsure:

ease up on the webber. he tries his best and it must take some toughness just to be able to go out with a good attitude every race considering everything in the team is set up to favour vettel. the fact that he beats vettel something close to half the time they race tells us he's a long way from being a hack. he also smashed rosberg when they drove together and now look at what rosberg is doing to schuey.

Yes but Schumacher is an old coot, a talented driver with a difficult personality who unfortunately owes most of his titles to ross brawn, ferrari superiority and rubens' contract rather than his raw talent. I am very glad rosberg consistently beats him, and it was upsetting to see rosberg taken out and miss out on gaining some points on his team-mate.

I do agree though, it must be hard some mornings to be Webber, but he does often act very aggressively towards vettel, though I guess I would too if some punk was getting favoured and I was the unluckiest driver in f1.

but is he jawsome enough to ever snaffle a WDC?

tough call. I would like to think so, but I'm man enough to admit I may be a bit one eyed when it comes to webber. he was bloody close last year and led the WDC for more than any other driver but wasn't leading at the one point it counts. can he do that again? can't see why not, only this time It'd be nice for him to stay in front for a few more events and take the prize.

anyway, we'll see. many, many people said he would never win a race and yet he won enough last year to keep my TAB account in the black and keep himself up front for the whole season (pretty much). so sure plenty of so called pundits reckon he will never be WDC but fact is those same people said he'd never even fit in an F1 car let alone with races in them.

Well, whilst I am a Webber fan, I am still a motorsport fan and I think/hope I understand the difference between my favourite driver and the best driver. That said, I do not believe Vettel is that better then Webber and the things I am reading with regards to car problems, in particular its a damaged front wing which was not identified until after the race....well, it goes a long way to explaining his lack of pace on the weekend.

I am still a believer that he manages his car better then Vettel over a race...so if I am wrong on that count then he will be nowhere for the rest of the year

Alonso is no sap though, he's one of the best drivers on the grid.

I feel sorry for Perez, no performance advantage and the driver's earned their results, why couldn't they get a fine instead?

Meanwhile, in recent news, Ford is encouraging Nissan to take up arms against Renault, who recklessly and maliciously used the name R31 this year on their f1 car. What has the world come to.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
