R31Nismoid Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Is there something missing from that article quote? Says about a tyre "trick", yet says nothing of what it is... And given their tyre wear is really no better than anyone else... Is it even working?

sh@un Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 plenty of detail- they turn a screw and the tyres get heat from the brakes simple really Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/159/#findComment-6401283 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R31Nismoid Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 If they are only making 2 pit stops a race, i cannot see how such adjustment would have such a major play (which it clearly isn't).

Nee-san Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 who do you guys use for having a punt on Motorsport in general ? there are a few places which have basic futures on F1 MotoGP but nothing really comprehensive. I noticed centrebet have V8SC options but that's it. What do people use ?

tweety bird Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Sky Sport's commentator Anthony Davidson remains in hospital after breaking his back in a high-speed accident at the Le Mans 24 hours. Taking part in the legendary endurance race in a Toyota TS030 Hybrid, Davidson's car flipped at the entry to Mulsanne Corner when the Ferrari he was lapping turned in on him. The impact sent Davidson careering into the barriers at high speed. The 33-year-old was taken to the circuit's medical centre and then transferred to the hospital where scans revealed he had broken two vertebrae in the impact. "I have felt better, that's for sure," Davidson, who will remain in hospital until Wednesday, said in an interview with Toyota Motorsport. "I am in a bit of pain, in my lumber area, the middle area of my back. That's the only thing that hurts really so I've been lucky. "Basically I have two broken vertebrae; T11 and T12. The doctors say the average recovery time is three months, but that's an average person not a professional sportsman or athlete. "That estimate is to get back to an absolutely healed bone; as strong as it was before. It's more like three weeks until the pain subsides and I get my mobility back fully." Describing the accident, the former F1 driver said: "I was almost completely past the car after the apex of the kink. I passed a Corvette and a Ferrari with the pro driver sticker on. They were fighting each other and I just assumed the Ferrari ahead was part of their group and therefore another pro. "The car was all the way to the left as you would expect a pro driver to do. It was only when I got right up to the back that I realised it was one of the amateur-stickered cars. "But I still wasn't alarmed, I still felt it was a completely legitimate move and thought he would stay to the left, which it looked like he was doing. I made the apex of the corner, started to brake and I was almost out of the corner when I felt contact on the left rear. "Instantly it spun the car, pivoted round to the left, then took off and turned upside down. At that point I felt I was in an aeroplane out of control. I knew how close the barriers were, and travelling at that speed I was going to be there in no time. That part of the crash was pretty petrifying. "It crashed back down to the ground, I felt an almighty punch up my spine when the car hit back down on four wheels. I still had my eyes closed and my hands off the wheels, in the brace position. Half a second after that I had the forward impact into the barrier." He added: "I reopened my eyes and realised I was still here, albeit in a bit of pain. I had feeling and could move my feet; everything was working. I know I should stay in the car, especially with back pain, but initially I felt full of panic and claustrophobia, I just had to get out of the car. It was really odd. I banged the door open and clambered out carefully because I knew I was in pain. I had to stretch out and the closest point was the side of the car, then the medics came over." http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/7822310/Davidson-remains-in-hospital Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/159/#findComment-6405933 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nee-san Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Yeah he seems to have gotten out of it relatively well. props to him, talented guy, sometimes seems to show the chip on his shoulder a bit to much but it's understandable when you see the level of some of the drivers in F1 watching from the sidelines.
