What's the go with the F1 app this year?

Free for live timing last year and now they want $30?

The lite version doesn't include life timing and I love the sector splits.

Anyone found an alternative or just using the mobile version of the F1 site on race day?

Force India has nominated Gary Paffett as its reserve driver for this weekend's Australian Grand Prix, because its regular incumbant Jules Bianchi is unavailable.

Mercedes' hopes of delivering on its strong winter testing form have received a boost, with the FIA confirming ahead of the Australian Grand Prix that a radical wing concept the team has pioneered is fully legal.

The Brackley-based outfit stirred up interest from its rivals throughout pre-season testing with its W03 featuring its own version of a rear-wing F-duct concept - that some suspected was activated by vents

being opened when the upper wing elements moves during DRS activation.

Whiting would not reveal details of how the Mercedes system works, but said that he viewed it as completely passive.

^ the other teams have said that they'll copy it.

So nobody else finds it interesting that Liuzzi is standing behind the car? He was pretty vocal when he lost his seat. Seems he is still in the wings and involved in one shape or form

liuzzi probably knows this is his last chance at being in f1, mentoring.

or maybe he's hoping that Pedro de la Rosa or Narain Karthikeyan are so slow the team gets desperate and puts him in instead.

we'll see.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
