Did not expect this:

Jolyon Palmer stays put at Renault in 2017.

Renault Sport chairman Jerome Stoll says:

“The line-up of Jolyon and Nico harnesses the benefits of continuity and fresh blood,” Palmer said.

“I am sure that having Nico as a team-mate will help push Jolyon to greater achievements.

“We thank Kevin Magnussen for his efforts in 2016 as he has done a great job for us this year. We wish him all the best for 2017 and beyond.”

“We have been impressed with his increasingly strong performances on track as the season has progressed.”

“We are confident that the combination of Jolyon and Nico Hulkenberg offers a very promising driving force to meet our goals.”

Yeah but to be fair he appears to have been getting better and the better of Kevin lately.  Goes postal on the radio which is always amusing.  Magnussen is supposedly off to Haas.  Guessing he got pushed.  Still happy for the Hulk after all this time he may have got a properly good seat.  Will see how much coin and how good the Renault is next year I suppose.

Reckon Britney will win another race this year?

If I was Hamilton I would have done the same thing, re backing britney into vtool, it was his only option to take the championship.

 

Congratulations to Nico, he had the right combination of skill, luck and equipment, good on him.

God let Button get the call back to McLaren and let Alonso walk due to performance clauses!!!!

+1 that would be some entertaining racing I would love to see. Jenson would probably be gagging for the seat too

This is true, but he doesn't have to carry on the way he does.

This is the thing that I like about Rosberg. He is much more.... Professional I guess. All these reports coming out now that Hamilton was going to walk away from Mercedes blah blah blah. As if you would walk away from the best car on the grid mid season.

    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
    • Sounds like a misfire. Check fuel pressure and don't even think about going into boost while it's like this unless you enjoy engine rebuilds.
