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!

roll on the excuses!

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.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
