Doesnt read good for poor old Caterham :(

Do want..

P2 results.

Usual story I guess. Dan only did 3 laps - had an off I think.

Apparently Verstappen did ok in P1 too for what that is worth.

kyvat to the big leagues is still wayyyy too early, he needs another year at STR imo. he has driven well but not on the level of dan before the move to red bull still plenty of rookie errors and a far too aggressive style at times. lets hope Dan goes from 750K to 20 mil a year too now that the $$ has freed up.

interesting few weeks ahead. I would of liked to see nando back behind a renault, though who knows they may still score nando at the bull and pip Kyvat

"Sayonara Biatch" good to see the back of the whingeing weiner. Hopefully he'll fade away into obscurity.

what i'd love to se is at the end of the season all F1 drivers thwon into a MMA cage, forced to skull hald a dozen duble JD's and then game on . Stop the the poor boy top bloke whining and crying and get it on and punch the crap out of each other if they don't like their teamates. I'd have my money on Kimi.

Haha Massa made a funny.

No offence to JEV but he must of pissed someone off to be overlooked twice, unless who heads to a backmarker team his days of f1 look numbered.

Vet is no doubt switching because he's well aware that Renault have advised that the power unit for next year is still not going to be up to scratch and competitive. Relish the challenge? Not.

  • Like 1

I think he just needs a new challenge. Still think it could be McLaren despite all the talk as Alonso could well make Fezz now pay out a contract or keep him to mess with Vettel.

Whatever the case the new Fezz management are retards for pushing Alonso out. Oh, and the release clause was if he wasnt in the top 3 in the championship he can leave. LOL, McLaren offer 40 million and he just tanks a few races and he is out of the contract :)

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
