Webber could not win a chook raffle in a pub let alone an F1 race in that sht box..and now wait for it he is leaving Williams to go where???..some sources are saying RBR....oh for fk sake Webber piss off out of F1 and go to Chump..I mean Champ Car where all the other nobodys go.

Someone remind me to mention this quote when he wins a race next year with Renault :)

Webber's proven in the past that he can win races in all the other categories he's competed in given the right equipment, so to claim he is a 'chump' or a 'nobody' is ridiculous.

The simple truth is that he's never had a car capable of winning races in F1 - simple. There's no doubt that he's a top line driver. He's always outperformed his teammate and the relative performance of his car compared to the rest of the field. I'd go as far to say that arguably he's one of the better drivers in the championship - probably just behind Schumi, Alonso and Raikkonen (based on the fact that he has never had the equipment to truely compete with these guys head to head).

Admittedly, I'm probably a little biased, but i've never let that get in the way of a good argument :D

yeah, all the good drivers have the massive jaw.

i reckon williams should give me and fatz a go next year. let rosberg sit at home popping his pimples. now that would be a good line-up. people would be shit scared to race us. can you say turn 1 incident. It would also bring a bit of class and reality to F1 racing.

According to Finnish tabloid Ilta-Sanomat, Ferrari has exercised its option on Kimi Raikkonen to race for the Italian team next season. This means the Finn would have signed a five-year-contract.

this webber quote gave me a smile. let's hope it's true.

"It would be a bit silly to walk away from Williams and not have anything, wouldn't it? I am very, very relaxed. I'll be here next year."

"People might think it's a bit of a risk for us to leave the team but Flavio has rarely been wrong in his decisions. I'm confident we can get something better, otherwise I would have stayed there wouldn't I?"

i am so excited right now. If webber does get a drive with renault it will be a major coup for him. and a chance that we will see some nice finishes for once, instead of just good quali perfomances.

Reading between the lines I think Williams was unable to enforce their option because there was doubtless a clause in the contract that required a certain amount of point to be scored by the German round or a certain position to be maintained in the championship. Frank wouldn't have let Mark go.

I bet Williams will be in the top 3 runners next year.

Hope Renault can find their form again after the loss of the mass-dampner. They went well in 2005 without it, hopefully the loss of this plus the switch to Bridgestones next year doesnt cause them to fall back to the mid-field (and leaving Webber in a similar position should he sign with them).

yeah alonso said that too. he claimed mass damper doesn't make that much difference. he said tyres were the big problem and they didn't have a handle on the rear end set-up.

i will be pissed off if williams do well next year. it just proves that mark got the short stick AGAIN!

Gascoyne is a good guy for a bottom dwelling team lookig to become a midfield team. He is a manager, not a techincal powerhouse. Williams need technical brilliance if they are goignt o turn it all around in a season. Gascoyne will charge a fortune and not bring anything they need ...well thats my take on it anyway

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
