Sato gets engine penalty

28 September 2006

Takuma Sato will lose ten places on the starting grid for the Chinese Grand Prix after the team had to replace his Honda engine. Sato used the engine at the Italian Grand Prix but since then the team has discovered a problem which means it has to be changed.

lol... that'll take him from at least 21st to.... 22nd

A japanese company with endorsements from people like paris hilton, penelope cruz

this is how bored i am...

On the upside someone has taken over from Tyrrell as the rightful place for really obscure Japanese sponsors to call home.

Never understood why Zent didn't back the Toyota F1 team, they used to sponsor their Le Mans efforts....

How could you forget big Darryl Eastlake "Oh gees the emotion is written all over his helmet etc etc etc"

In fact the whole channel 9 coverage was great. Alan Jones would rock & up not having even bothered to learn how to pronounce the names of whichever buy drivers Minardi was running that week. Darryl eastlake would chime in with useful offerings like "When you go off & hit the grass you actually accelerate." Ahhh, happy days.

Tyrrell used to have PIAA as a major sponsor, which was obvious enough. Club angle was somewhat more obscure. Would you believe a Japanese manufacturer of underwear? Now that is product placement.

    • Once you have to get up in the morning and be useful, you suddenly value sleep it turns out :p
    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
    • Yeah, the plan is to just put some black rubber vacuum line caps over them to "hide" them a bit I don't want to trim them in cause I need to put the OEM box back on at some stage
