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!

Renault have supposedly reverted to the old suspesnion system that they used upto the Canadian GP for this weekends race, so we'll see if the status quo has been restored.

well Kimi is on pole with mass in P2. Then surprisingly the two hondas on row 2 (RB and JB 3rd and 4th). Then it's de la rosa and our boy Webber in 6th (note rosberg is in 18th). schui got a 2 sec penalty as wel which hurt him bad as his quick quali lap was a full second quicker than the eventual Pole lap. He's down in 12th. Alonso also copped a 2 sec penalty and is in 16th!

It could be a good race.

I thought button had an engine swap and was supposed to be docked 10 places?

When I was watching live timing last night, they never put him down 10 spots once it was all over, but Schumacher and Alonso's penalties were done in real time

Schumacher so close to taking points off alonso...

that aside, anyone but Button FFS!

slight bias from the commentary......think he needs a new pair of boxers/briefs

"better than sex" lol...the wife of that guy wont be too happy.

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
