How the hell was than not vettels fault? I only saw it once, but it looked clear that vettel cut in too soon and paid the price. stop whinging ya farkin sook. At least button's man enough to admit he screwed up.

Any links and help to setup?

LOLOLOLOLOL

Interesting season ahead.

Perez should have won.

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

It didnt work too well for me thru out the race, p1-p3 and qualifying + the 30 to hour before the starts were fine to watch tho.

Are you on racingfor.me?? theres a thread with few bits to the program to get it to work. but its really just giving you the streams that are avaliable on the web, since most of them are just whored all over the web and each website has pretty much the same links come race time.

In this thread you will have a few options and quiet often a decent link to a stream thats working. someone recently posted a hdtv thing i am yet to try since im using a mac

Going to need to work something out soon so i can just stream skysports.. i dont mind if i have to pay for it really. but another 5 years of trying to watch it on one is going to be shithouse..

most of us would be members i'd think...

there is also something else you can look into.

i did try that hdtv player just now and it seems ok, pretty much like foxtel with every channel possible.. i ran it on bootcamp for mac (windows partition) and it threw up a few virus things, but since i dont really use windows for anything important i wasnt bothered. probably a false virus thing anyway..

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

It beats me what footage the stewards had of the contact.

the camera angle is deceptive. From the rear it looked like SV cuts across on him, from the front that's clearly not what happened.

I found a link and I have to agree that looking at it from other angles, Karthikeyan moves over. SV was slightly squeezing him on the exit and could have moved back to the right of the track.

Just watched a few vids of the incident, both on-board and front/rear views... I still think Vettel could have easily got passed him without incident.

As you exit that right hander, you immediately aim towards the right of the track to set up for the left, which is what Karthikeyan was doing. If he had have continued straight he would've been off the track.

I agree back markers should do everything to get out of the way when being lapped, especially when they're not fighting for position with any other back markers, but in this case it's not that simple given the series of corners it happened in. Karthikeyan had just been lapped by someone else mid-turn, and would have been lucky to see Vettel coming up behind him immediately after.

The penalty doesn't really matter too much in the scheme of things, but in reality Vettel had a shit load of room to the right that he could have been in, instead of leaving nothing more than a car width on a track where a wheel outside the line could end the other guys race..

you say yourself he left a car width. how much more do you want for a bloke 3 laps down?

there's no rush to get back over to the other side of the track, but even if there was, you don't move over if there's another car still alongside you! pretty simple. and that's not what Karthikeyan was doing anyway, he just tucked in behind Vettel, and even went left again after that. He was still mid track by the braking zone, and not because he was being squeezed...

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
