Was a good solid race from RBR & Ferrari, although once again comes down seemingly to tyre degradation once again as the factor.

lol @ Pasta yet again hacking it up.

I think Grosjean though had the most epic of races. To only be 17 sec off the leader @ race end after having to pit for a new nose on lap 2... Would've been very interesting to see it play out. Lotus are certainly onto something, just need a little bit of luck to go their way and its podium time i think.

Hamilton is really not happy with McLaren at the moment

I cant believe they were saying "we're in a good spot now" when he came out in front of Grosjean, who then was immediatly faster. What race were the Mclaren guys watching :S

Can't help think that if Lotus got on the front row they might just run away with a race. Kimi and Romain both smashing fastest laps at different stages.

Great win for Webber but, drove a solid race, good to see how planted the car is, it looked amazing through the corners

But whoever was directing the race coverage, what a $hit job. So many times they cut away when there was a car catching just beore the DRS and missed an overtake to go get some shots of something pointless. I think it was useless coverage of an exciting race

Not really, everyone had the same deg on the soft, webber just had the right tyre strategy over Alonso who had the softs at the wrong time

More races like that please! Tyres didn't fall apart on anyone and DRS wasn't too intrusive most of the time. It was almost like they took all the fake stuff away for one weekend, and we had a ripper of a race. Also another prime example of the cars being able to run closer than ever, even through some of the fastest corners in F1 resulting in lots of passes outside the DRS zone. See, they can make their own passes!

Yeah the best races in F1 are those that avoid the fakery.

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.

      Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆

      remote oil cooler hose size, 8,10 or an12?

      Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By Hendasto · Posted

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
