its just Saubers nose with a bit of a moustache

the rip off mclaren paint scheme looks really good this year though

Yeah paint scheme flummoxed me for a while until I realised that it was easy - can in the mid pack is a Force India. Car trailing around to retire is the McLaren.

Mclaren and Red Bull are sooooo bad right now its giving FI, STR and even Sauber a walk up opportunity at points at most GPs.

Wasnt a bad race...thankfully Rosberg drove well. Cant believe how shit Kimi is all of a sudden. He has fallen off a cliff.

Time to get Rimain or Hulk in that seat. Bottas can stay at Williams

Kimi isn't shit all of a sudden, he's been shit for ages. Well not really shit, just mediocre with the occasional shit race. This year though he's decided to lift his game and make sure he's shit more consistently. He should've given up a few years back. But I suppose it makes it easier for Ferrari to employ a good driver as their number 1 driver without having to worry about team orders causing problems....

Interesting bit of trivia

By this phase of the season last year, the SAU F1 thread had around 1650 posts. Same time this year we are at what, 650-ish?

Certainly a loss of interest in the spectacle around here..

The fact that only half the races are shown live on fta tv probably has something to do with that. That's why I don't post much

Hey guy's chasing some ideas on the Brittish F1 weekend. I'm currently in Scotland visiting family and I'm thinking of driving down to Silverstone for the GP.

Has anyone done a day trip to the race before who can give me some idea of what to expect access wise or maybe have some ideas on where to watch from.

Thanks.

Yeah since I posted that I have been trying to find accomodation, got it sorted with the help of a few friends here then noticed the prices. FFFUUUAAARRRKKK that £377.00 for one day, I'll be watching it on telly me thinks.

Be hard to maintain the hatred for that lot If Dan signs. Would Tool have a no Dan clause in his contract?

Questions for the weekend.

How many engine blow ups for McLaren? Can they make Q2 with their new aero package?

How good will the B Spec Force India be?

How many engine penalties for the Renaults?

Will Ferrari be competitive?
Williams too, how will they go?

How much will Hamo beat Britney by?

They both have fairly level heads so should be racing each other without crashing, and there's nothing like a competitive team mate to to encourage you and the team, will be good for Vtool, and Fez.

Well hope to get my copy of MW's book tomoz... in the meantime...here is a juicy tidbit...

“When Ann (Neal, Webber’s partner) later pressed (Christian Horner) about why the team had never reprimanded Seb or issued any punishment for the ‘Multi 21’ incident, he admitted that the team had received a two-page letter from Seb’s lawyer a few days after the Malaysian race stating that they were in breach of his contract by giving him an ‘unreasonable instruction/team order’,” Webber wrote.

“Whatever (Vettel’s) thinking was, when he overtook me I wasn’t so much angry as very sad that the team had reached this sorry state.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
