Earlier this week the German press carried claims that Mark Webber would definitely leave Red Bull at the end of this season. Today, however, a stronger rumour emerged suggesting that the Australian driver will do the exact opposite and flat refuse to leave the team, even if they want him to.

Marks not bloody going anywhere, said a source close to the F1 star. Whether they bloody like it or not, hell be there in 2014, leaving all the lights on in the pit, knocking over piles of tyres, releasing a brown shark into the motorhome shitter and then not flushing. Oh yea, Red Bull are gonna be stuck with him all season.

Our inside man claims that Webber has already dreamt up several other disruptions such as holding a powerful magnet near Adrian Neweys brain until key items of data are wiped, leaving a land mine on the pit wall, just under Christian Horners jiggly foot and giving interviews in which he describes the Red Bull drink as robot piss.

F1 pundits have already noted that this scheme will come to nothing if Webbers seat is given to another driver but our source claims the Aussie racer has already thought of that; If some other bloody idiot gets the drive, Mark will just bring his own car, our mole revealed. Truth is, hes been nicking bits for bloody years. All he needs to do is stick em all together and hes got an RB6/7/8/9 of his own. It wont win races but trust me, itll be bloody good at accidentally crashing into Sebastian Vettel.

why can't all rumours about mark be like this?

It does appear that Mateschitz is Mark's biggest backer in the team. All negotiations are direct between Mark and him and for whatever reason they seem to havea good relationship. I recall reading Mark stayed at his holiday get away over summer, an offer not extended to anyone else in the RBR family

It was said recently that Hamiltons approach was blocked because Dietrish said Mark has first dibs if he wants to keep the seat. So shows the level of support/respect he has for Mark

I hope Kimi goes toe to toe with Vettel. He probably has the sort of natural feel and pace that can allow him to beat Vettel consistantly. One can only hope.

But I hope we get the 2010 Webber back with bit between his teeth and we get a fight for this years WDC. He doesnt have to win it but FFS FIGHT OLD SON!

Some more video-audio from the last race. Not sure its all the radio calls. But you do get the feeling that the race was being run from the pit wall and not the drivers seats.

If you watch the race edit on the F1 site you hear the "Multi21 map Sebastian" call.

I cant wait for the next GP. RBR normally go ok there and Seb has a good record so will be interesting to see how it pans out

I just posted this on another forum, but I'm putting it here too.

! watched the MotoGP this morning. Nice to see some actual GrandPrix racing - you know, where the best guys on the day sort out the podium places on the track, instead of fat old bastards behind the pit wall determining the outcome, allegedly because they don't think their 20,000,000 pound drivers are good enough to overtake one another without f**king it all up. MotoGP rookie passed his established teammate with 5 or 6 laps to go and the world did not end!
It was also nice to see guys pushing hard right through the race rather than cruising at 80% most of the time, thanks to having race tyres designed to actually perform - a radical concept for the pinacle of motorsport... F1 has f**ked things royally IMO.
Less FAKE SHOW and more GRANDPRIX RACING thanks!

Moto gp riders still have to find that balance between all out pace and blistering the rear tyres. It's not as much of a fine line as f1 though.

It is funny though that the racing category that us generally classed as the pinnacle of motor racing is also the category where they aren't pushing 100% very much. Having said that, i think that the speed difference between what they are driving at and flat out is bugger all (maybe a few tenths), otherwise the last few laps of the gp would see anyone with plenty of fuel left and decent tyres romping through the field.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
