Heaps of ppl posting about how fcuked the team orders were how about some about there stupid coverage

Any idea what the email to onehd might be

See if they will bring that up on RPM on wed

Edited by stR33ter

kinda understandable from a "lets make sure vettel wins" point of view.

but if it had been the other way. Vettel still woulda had a good lead and Webber would have had a few more solid points to ensure (more likely) a redbull 1 & 2 for the season. stupid decision, but some epic racing last night. other than homos barging massa around, no tears shed here tho, all in good fun :thumbsup:

Exciting end to the race! And my boy Alonso taking the win!

Woulda topped it off if massa got Hamilton at the end, but can't have it all

And Horner f**ked that one up nicely. Having said that, I don't think webber wouldve got him without a few more laps anyway.

Holy crap that wire cam gives an awesome shot

It's Epic to the power of Wicked

ricciardo is last on the track. DR has made up 6 spots though

yes, but only by virtue of the misfortune of others

he 'pulled a Bradbury'

I prefer to see racing right to the line too, but don't think it was smart to break team orders while he's just started negotiating with them for next season, for a low percentage chance of getting 2nd place.

He was all despondant after the race too, so it seems he didn't even get any personal satisfaction from his act of defiance.

In all likelihood, RBR will ensure that this doesn't happen again next year if they re-sign him.

Might have been worth it if it was over a GP victory, but to stuff up your contract negotiations over a 2nd place which he couldn't get anyway... not very clever.

they forgot his wheel nut :whistling:

wouldnt you reckon they would run down and screw it on so he can keep going

that rattlegun dude probably starts his new position as a janitor at the MTC today

pretty sure they can't work on the car outside of pit lane speed limit lines barring the installation process

Team has no right to be issuing such orders in the first instance. 'Maintain the gap' is fooling nobody.

The day a race driver gives up on a sniff of a chance at a fair pass on his team-mate and settles for one place lower is the day he joins the ranks of other legendary hall-of-famers like Barrichello and Massa.

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
