I think Kimi is plenty motivated to drive a car as fast as possible. What I think he has no time for is all the media appearances and fluff associated with beinga driver in F1. I am sure Williams will be nowhere near as demanding of his time then McLaren and Ferrari.

I think he was still plenty motivated in his last season at Ferrari. you only have to look how bad Fisi was in the same car to realise just how bad the car was....remembering that Fisi almost beat Kimi at Spa in a Force India a few GP earlier....he could not get anywhere near Kimi when in the same car. And as the year rolled on without Massa and the car setup went towards Kimi then the pace improved.

I'd love to see Kimi back in F1. The most naturally talented driver of the last decade. The story of his path to F1 is pretty remarkable.

Also hope the story of the Kube's recovery is true!

no Daniel Ricciardo at the indian gp.

part of the deal was for the Australian to step aside at the Indian GP, allowing Narain Karthikeyan to return to the race-seat that was initially his.

I hope Kubica comes back as well. But I'm not going to get my hopes up too much until I see how he goes in a car.

Maybe if Ricky has a good run between now and then they can dump the spacer in the other car instead.

there'a more to Massa v Lewis at the Singapore Grand Prix.

The controversy over Massa's run-in with Lewis Hamilton is refusing to die down after formula1.com revealed an official video edit of the race in which Massa's race engineer Smedley could be heard saying: "Hold Hamilton as much as we can. Destroy his race as much as we can. Come on, boy..."

i cannot find the video on youtube, if you want to see it you will have to sign up to formula1.com. :)

Edited by tweety bird

Its all a load of UK-BBC/Internet hogwash.

Smedley gives Massa a 2sec pep talk to get him to lift his game and keep pace so that come pitstops Massa will stay ahead...and the whiney poms are making out that somehow Massa had Hamo off or forced Hamo to run into the back of him

So, ie next. Ready to move on! :)

Alonso is fighting for second place in the WDC, so any points they can stop Hamilton from scoring will only help...I don't see an issue with Massa being told to destroy someones race, as long as he does it fairly (staying in front of them).

Besides, it was Hamilton, he doesn't need any help f**king his race up.

    • 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
