lol.....

It may be just me but I feel for quiet some time that 'Fasta Pasta Nando's' is just reckless in F1? I'm so surprised he still in an F1 seat after all the reckless accidents he has caused????

Why? He can actually drive a bit when he isnt doing stupid stuff and he brings in masses of money to Williams. It is easier to stop a driver doing dumb shit than it is to make a slow driver quick. So they will keep him until either his money runs out or they can find someone faster (With money).

I think the key words here are the ones underlined in bold.

that is what its all about theses days!

ohhhh......and with out that financial backing......he certainly would not be in an F1 seat IMO.

He isnt looking at all like a race winner or even fast this year. That hat goes to the Finnish team mate

Yeah Bottas is beating him but neither look like race winners given the car isnt much chop. But the reality is nowadays you dont make it through the junior formula without bulk coin and even into F1 without backing.

Have a look at what rubbish aero has done to their share price.

...and rubbish global financial systems. Though another le Mans win with their tech and the new green series next year all provide funding to Williams Engineering ... if not Williams F1.

Its a shame they had such a good car last year ... you wonder how much Toto and Gillan leaving rattled the ranks focus.

Think the two companies are under one listing on the German SX?

You never know how much influence any one person has on the car design or the business or if it just that the wind tunnel calibration is shit. See how Sam Michael is going at McLaren for example or how Ferrari went in the last few years.

no, that's what happens when FIA signs a contract with a tyre supplier permitting testing despite the sporting code banning it, then tells a team "OK, you can go to the test with the 2013 cars as long as Pirelli are running the test" and then backflips when other teams complain...

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
