Damn team played him twice. No pit and wrecked his flow on the radio.

Aren't those team-radio feeds like 1-2 laps behind the present though?

Or have they got them more up to date now?

So whilst it looked like he basically went off a few corners later, it actually wasn't the case.

Which would also mean he was ignoring those orders are until then he was still gaining!

Why is it that Marks car is the slowest in a straight line out of the front runners.Even with th DRS he still couldnt pass and had to do it on a different part of the circuit whereas finger boys just flew past???

Sauber weren't telling him not to pass, they were just telling him to do it without making contact and losing 18 points.

Probably shouldn't have done it, but I doubt it changed the way he was driving anyway.

And yeah they're delayed so it wasn't just before he made the error. It was a tiny error but costly in the conditions...

Great to see a mixed podium and a good win for Alonso. What's Hamo's go anyway he should stop saying all the "right" things and just speak his mind

his expressions and body language say it pretty well anyway. Good to see a result for Perez, Kimi and Senna as well.

Also when was the last time there was no Red Bull on the podium?

Few pages for just this one race.

At least 5 pages per race including practice/quali/general shit. 20 races.

200 pages by the end of season?

But yes, very good to see a mix on the podium and midfield.

Makes the castrol prediction very difficult.

I tried using previous race results for this one along with last years results(sort of). Didn't really help. Maybe cause of the rain, but we will see in China.

Strange that of the top three teams, none showed any real pace today, at all. Possibly a set up explanation

Perez with almost the drive of the day today. His team left him out far too long, and his off was a suspiciously well timed

Disappointed we didnt get more of a fight at the front for podium spots. Was more or less settled at the restart

GREAT midpack action, Senna with the mad skills

Sauber weren't telling him not to pass, they were just telling him to do it without making contact and losing 18 points.

Probably shouldn't have done it, but I doubt it changed the way he was driving anyway.

Not sure if the radio is delayed now, the radio channels are open this season for all to hear.

bit of a harsh penalty i think but HRT should take him out every race, worth a 20sec penalty for us to loose the tool

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
