Silver-Arrowz Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Kimi is fast because beats the crap out the car! Did you see the way he ride the curbs? He's a man on a mission alright.

Duncan Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 mmmm....curbs....the secret to a shorter track But that race opens the question again.....does Webber just not have it? Pizzonia qualified behind him and finished 10 places ahead......

ECR033 Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 But that race opens the question again.....does Webber just not have it? Pizzonia qualified behind him and finished 10 places ahead...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> True, Pizzonia did finish ahead of Webber - but it's not really an ideal comparison as Webber had to pit at the end of the first lap to replace the nose/front wing assembly on his car after hitting DC in turn 1.I think you'll find that Webber's race pace was a fair bit quicker then Pizzonia's during the race. He caught DC very quickly and put a big gap on him once he got passed. He also caught Sato and pulled away once past him as well. I recall Mr Crompton actually mentioning that Webber's lap times were consistently amongst those of the top 5 when he wasn't in traffic, therefore I think it's safe to assume that he would've finished ahead of Pizza Boy if he had a trouble free run. That being said, Webber always seems to find himself running into other guys these days...admittedly, not all his fault, but perhaps he needs to revise his driving style a little just to keep himself out of trouble.

Roy Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 4th...and more importantly a race finish. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/72829-can-weber-get-up-tonight/page/14/#findComment-1577584 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradizzle Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Yer nice result considering where he started from, and stopping 4 times. If he didnt gamble that first time on going out with slicks he would have finished 3rd.

ECR033 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Finally a decent result! I think Webber drove a very good race. 4th is definately a good result considering the conditions and his starting position on the grid. I thought he was reasonably quick in the damp conditions and other than the gamble to go on slicks, he drove a very sensible race. Importantly, he's also now back ahead of Heidfeld in the championship standings...hopefully he can grab some more points in Brazil Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/72829-can-weber-get-up-tonight/page/14/#findComment-1578078 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaps Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Yer nice result considering where he started from, and stopping 4 times. If he didnt gamble that first time on going out with slicks he would have finished 3rd. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> True, but if Webber had not stopped for dry tyres at the time he did then he would have finished 6th or 7th. Williams made a good decision there as next lap around he set fastest first sector, then lap after fastest lap of the race, this prompted Rubens and RSCH in to get drys Well done Webber finially a bit of luck, now all he needs is a win to finish the year.

Roy Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 God bless pizza boy, if only he could have taken out a few more cars then Weber could have lucke dhis way into a podium, maybe even a win.

Beer Baron Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 ok, i'm a bit slow as i just watched the race last night. i must say it was a really interesting race. so good to see people changing 4 tyres in a pit stop. i'm surprised they remember how!!! yes were it not for the first attempt on slicks webber would have probably finished ahead of button. he finally had some luck and didn't have any failures/incidents which it seems is just about 80% of what's needed for a top 5 finish these days. it was great to see him feeling his way on slicks after a few others had failed (massa etc) and setting such quick times. great move that one. shame about montaya handing P2 to gonzo. kimi must be p1ssed off.

benm Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) Yup, Dvico Fusion Plus DVB-T PCI HDTV. Each recording is around 9gb. Remove the adverts and its down to around 6.5gb, use dvdshrink and it fits perfectly on a 4.5gb dvd-r at around 70-75% compression (Sandown I split over 2x DVD-R and no doubt Bathurst 1000 will be about 5 DVD-R's ) with awesome playback quality. If Ch 7/10 made full length, full season DVD's available of each race, every round for every year i'd happily purchase them, until they do i'll happily do this Edited September 14, 2005 by benm Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/72829-can-weber-get-up-tonight/page/14/#findComment-1584445 Share on other sites More sharing options...
