front wing failure

going to be a tough season ahead i think

LOL...It shattered well before Turn 1 and left Hamilton a helpless passenger, in much the same way as Fernando Alonso's wing broke in Malaysia last year.

Still wisj I was there drinking cans in the sun...or under the clouds :)

There doesn't seem to be any Pirelli branding on the tyres that the cars are using on track, I wonder if the teams wanted that so that other teams didn't know what tyres they were running and therefore being harder to compare like for like, or if Pirelli didn't want their name to be visible if there was a failure.

Sounds like F1 from the 80s

I like the 80s

Yep!

There's a bloke in Sydney who owns two old Ferrari turbo f1 cars that he brings out to the irace days, the new turbo Ferrari sounds very much the same as his cars.

pretty dull...

First few laps were more installation laps, you can tell he's not flogging it

I'm wondering what the Caterham nose would look like if it was JUST the dildo front end all the way, might look OK. To hard to tell but. Still want to see the Lotus in the flesh, at the moment I like it one minute, hate it the next, strange design

If i didn't already know and had to guess based on the sound, i'd say the new engines were inline 4's rather than V6's

still, i suppose it'll be easier to hear what anyone in the pit lane is saying when they cross to them during thr race...

    • Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.
    • Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits. 
    • For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise
    • I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
    • Yeah you can. Cable tie the gauge to a windscreen wiper, or run it into the car and hold it with one hand, or have the neighbour's kid run alongside and tell you what it says.
