Be good if they could get a good car at Williams. Williams would have kept Hulk but they couldnt afford to not run a pay driver.

As for Massa - he is a nice bloke who used to be able to drive. I dont quite understand it - surely a spring to the head doesnt cause that much damage?

Brain damage is odd like that...

Many many people say Barichello was never the same after his Imola crash, history would support this.

Rubens was very fast in his younger days.

To be honest, I don't get the Massa hate, the guy went within a few seconds of a WDC and has had some stellar drives.

Inconsistent yes but remember, in the year they were together, he towelled Kimi who seems to be every seconds persons favourite homeboy these days.

so..

merc is banned from the young drivers test because they took part in a illegal tyre test and gained an advantage from it.

but the tyres they tested (and gained an advantage from) are no longer being used, so no advantage gained?

The Kevlar belted tyres they tested had never been used until last round at Germany. See how much advantage they got from the test!

Mercedes did not get banned from the young driver test for gaining an advantage, just for undertaking an illegal test, which the FIA told both Pirelli and Mercedes they could do...

There are worse tragedies than Petrov getting a seat at Sauber! Be good to see him get back into F1 as any guy that can defend against Alonso for lap after lap over several GPs is a good driver....and anyone that can outpace/keep pace with Heikki isnt a hack...not to mention that back end of the season he wasnt too bad against Kubica

Lets hope it kicks off and that hack Mexican runs off to Indycar or Nascar

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
