I am pumped. Dan has been called up to test the RBR at Silverstone. Lets hope he can seal the deal and we see another Aussie in a top seat next year

Joe Saward seems to think its the wrong choice fro RBR and they should be looking at JEV.

Also interesting to see Coughlan has left Wiliams and Pat Symonds has signed up. SO many changes cant be good for Williams but hopefully Symonds can convince Maldanado to bin it and get Bottas in a good spot after a safety car

It should be pointed out that Joe Saward is a pharken idiot who's opinion is not worth a cold dog turd.

Looks the goods, wonder how much cheaper Kimi he would be....

SMACK BANG ON THE MONEY THERE. Our boy is looking real good as the chins replacement. However, will come down to dollar amounts vs experience

I bought the G27 the day that F1 2010 was released for PC, played it about 4hrs that Friday night then put it back in the box never to be touched again. Was planning on selling it but may need to hold out until F1 2013 Classic Edition is released...

And Sainz Jnr was only 0.044s slower than Dan in the STR on his first ever drive in an F1 car. That's faster than Dan was in his first drive of the RBR, with 2yrs F1 experience under his belt...

Track condition, temps etc will have something to do with it. Hard to say how much however. But seen as they were on different days I don't know if it will be quite as bad as it looks on paper.

Must be hard driving 2 different cars in the same day. Wasn't entirely shocked that he was slower in the Red Bull considering it wouldnt be set up for him or even designed with him in mind. So yeah hard to really say, hopefully its not a cross against Dan's name

World Champions stand. Was there this year, up the back this time. Was right in the front row this year which was alright but everyone walked past all the F$&@#$@# time which meant you had to move your legs all the time

Just wonder if the dates are locked in now that Melbourne isn't round 1 anymore. I'd like to look into accom soon but cant really do so till the date is set in stone

Pretty sure no setup changes were allowed on the car on the day. Not sure what they might have changed overnight....

Werent the established drivers forced to run the new tyres with no setup changes...vs the rookies allowed to test development parts and change setups? Many variables for the relative pace....but all the same Sainz was impressive first time out

    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
