It's not the lack of free to air that has turned me off. Half the time I watch a recorded race anyway cos I don't fancy still being up at 1am and having to work the next day. It's not the Mercedes d

And now a lift on the radio ban...muppets cant make up their minds. I can't believe these ppl get paid a fortunre to run this show. Now we have to listen to engineers telling Lewis what gear to be in and where to brake whilst Sky tell us how awesome he is for using every tool at his disposal. Real WDC stuff whilst any other driver receiving coaching is a  hack and not capable of driving the car :(

Is this the same Rosberg who has lead the championship all year until just now, and has a longer winning streak than the best driver in the world? 

Yeah the same one who has lost the wdc 2 years running and squandered a massive lead in this years which he gained on the back of his team mates bad luck/bad management/stupidity.  The same one you saw sooking on the tv last weekend*.

 

 

 

*Having said that he is now guaranteed to win at home this weekend.

Yeah why would you want Rosberg? Next minute, pole vs the greatest driver in the world in the same car... Who's sooking now? lol He is better than Nico at that but!

Point he is easily good enough to get the job done if Lewis doesnt fire on a particular weekend. Between the two of them even if they didnt have a good car advantage you would imagine they woudl still be qualifying well and racing well and taking solid points haul

 

I am surprised to say I feel a little sorry for the Russian....he is absolutely gutted and lost at the moment.  Bring back Petrov

Well done to Nico then. A day in the sun and at home too.  Good luck to him.  Never said Hamilton was the greatest driver (the greatest tool of this generation perhaps, other than, errr, Tool) just that he is quicker than Rosberg and that the tens of millions of dollars they pay Rosberg don't appear to be warranted.  Sure they can afford it but even so....

Would still have my money on Hamilton for this years WDC, though.

Not the most exiting race - but Dan ran well so that was good.  NFI what is going on at Williams.  They need to find some speed and soon.  Had also thought Palmer may have turned the corner after his last weekend and qualifying.  But again he was outshone by his team mate. The Honda looked to have some horsepower, shame about the fuel consumption.

Maybe but what they've got at the moment is being belted by Force it India. The low downforce/low drag advantage they used to have appears largely lost and they are nowhere with high downforce settings.  Be interesting to see who they get to drive alonside Bottas next year.

yep, FI have been much improved since their Spain update. 

Williams messing around with the extra illegal wing on test days says to me they're more interested in testing stuff for next year's high downforce cars. Hopefully it pays off.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
