The facts are as follows:

Vettel DIRECTLY ingnored a team order because he wants to win.

That in itself already says a lot about him.

In Vettel's eyes the word 'team' means one thing.....Vettel.

If you we're in Mark's shoes how would you feel?

Greed and thirst to a dominate has taken over Vettel. This is an issue in every professional sport these days.

But Vettel's behavior lately has made me realize how much more of a drop kick he really is.

The recent press conference (with Vettel) also reinforces this.

Bad sportsmanship is written all over his face. The apology he made to the team (and allegedly Mark) and team executives is just Hollywood from Vettel....it's all bullshit!

The only thing I hope for is for Mark to outperform Vettel as much as he can during his final season.

Go Mark, go!

start of FP3.

11:06

Vettel was supposed to drive through the pit lane but clearly didn't as his engineer comes on the radio and says "That's not what I'd call a drive through". I missed Vettel's response but Rocky then says "OK, box this lap"

doesnt look like he is listening to anyone

Will be interesting to see how many laps they can go on the softs...They'll all need to build a fair gap to Vettel/Button while they have the extra pace otherwise they'll pass them as soon as they have to pit

Hoping Alonso gets one of his good starts

Gotta love the post-quali interviews.

BBC interviews Horner and ask him if it was strategy for Vettel not to post a time. He said straight up that it was strategy and starting on new medium tyres compared to everyone in front being on used softs will move them up the field. The very next interview is with Vettel where the same question was asked and he said that he locked a tyre and had a brake issue that prevented him from completing a fast lap.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
