Awww Poor Diddums

Hmmm, so a world champ gets pissed because his car is not up to scratch? Seems fair enough to me, a bit different to a certain pommy media darling who puts on the grumpy face when he does not come first.

Lets see:

Pole positions: 0

Wins: 0

Podiums: 0

Championship position: 4th

So, yeah, on track.

given that webber has 2 more championship points than this time last year, is only 11 points behind the leader (instead of 26 last year), is ahead of bieber and is getting slightly better starts than last year (dropping half as many spots off the line as last year), i'd say he'd be well chuffed.

Hmm, not sure. Last year he couldnt win a race (until it stopped mattering) because he couldnt deal with the tyres. This year it is because the car sucks the big one. Not sure that either makes for a happy driver.

Also, just because Bieber has been rubbish so far is good as far as it goes but doesnt help as much as you would hope.

Vettel is the yardstick now, according to popular opinion, so when mark does well against him it reflects positively I guess.

yes, and the fact that the longer that webber stays in front of vettel in the points, the more likely he is to get more favourable treatment from the team as far as strategy goes. i also wouldn't say that the car "sucks the big one". they just don't have as good of a qualifying car, and the race car isn't as much of a dominant force, but they are still a fast car.

Personally Abu Dhabi sux dog balls for a GP. You will pay big money for tickets and accom. There is no social life when in town. So many other GPs in Europe or Asia where you will have amazing fun and most likely way cheaper and also whilst there is still a championship being run

Given how cheap flights are at the moment I was looking at the Texas F1, looks like its popular as most of the hotels are fully booked for the weekend in Austin

Who's been to the singapore GP ?

Very seriously considering going over for this year, anyone got any hints or tips ?

Seems to be one of the more economical GP's to head to, my main problem is I'm time poor with work and uni.

What do people think > ?

Hi all,

Has any one here been to the singapore gp b4? Ive booked but havnt chosen tickets yet. Who can point me in the right direcection? Im thinking stamford? The 3 day different stamds dont look too good. And are expensive to get a half decent 1?

I wish this was the case, but whilst that dog Helmut Marko is there V-tool will always get first preference to strategy and upgrades.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
