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.

    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
