yeah, if taking out the leader and 3 other cars from the places they deserved makes a race awesome... Perez's tyre almost took out Alonso as well. That would have been even more awesome.

Vettel and Rosberg (and probably many others we haven't heard about) had tyres with visible damage and almost at the point of failure at one of their stops.

it may have made a spectacle out of the race, but it only hurt the actual racing and had far too big an influence on who finished where.

This headline sums it up nicely: Rosberg lucks in to victory as tyre failures wreak havoc with race

As Dan said pre-race everyone thought that tyre durability was not going to be a concern for the race and it was going to be a pretty straight up fight.

How wrong they all were. It woudl have been a perfectly good race if the tyres had not blown up as Vettel on Hamo would have been a good contest and ditto Webber in the back of the top 10 trying to come back through. The DRS zone made life rather easy so didnt need tyre grenades

Too pissed at Pirelli to even bother reading the follow up news

Ruined Hamiltons home race, stopped Sergio from embarrassing his team mate again, robbed JEV for a chance to show his stuff to RBR along with dan, and gave people the opportunity for spectators to sympathize with that little weasel of a joke in the red car

Cant wait for next week, where its just as high speed as this week

Didnt anyone else see the red turtle shells and banana peels? hamilton managed to score a lightning strike on vettel. Webber stuffed up his start but lucked out and drew the flying bomb... Tyre shenanigans aside it made for an exciting race with shit head not coming first for once..

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
