Well done iceman & ferrari

Vettel really did prove to alot of people he is a good driver, nice work after last weeks race rammin webber up the backside

still reckon hamilton has some blame in it with his erratic driving behind the safety car

all i can say is wat the hell where mclaren and hamilton thinking

i dont see why they didnt bring him in earlier once the tire was playin up would have been the normal and safe thing to do

Cant wait until 2 weeks time in brasil, going to be one hell of a race for the title

Alonso Has Another Alternative

Alonso's options for 2008 have, to date, been limited to Renault, Ferrari and a sabbatical.

But the first would represent an embarrassing climbdown, the second has been ruled out, and the third dismissed by Alonso himself. A transfer to Red Bull, therefore, emerges as a genuine alternative.

The team is well resourced, boasts a design team of Adrian Newey and Geoff Willis, and is finishing the season strongly. A swap deal involving Mark Webber may also appeal to McLaren.

first half of the race was decent, but it was back to teh same old shit after evrybody strapped on the slicks. Kimi absolutely killed it and once again in the wet, massa again showed what an absolute n00b he is in the wet. ffs he needs to piss off to toyota where guys with his lack of overall talent belong.

At least its going down to the wire, Lewis will still win the title. The sad thing is more people are now interested in what Alonso will be driving next year and how that drama in particular plays out.

wheres a photo chop of hammies dad not being able to pull him out of that big bad nasty gravel trap??

i swear that thing was there like a tractor beam pulling lewie in saying, im going to claim you!

cant believe what a noob manouver that was...i watched the footage and his tyres were caned like 2 laps before the stop! why the hell didnt he come in ??? stupid.

He choked like a fat man getting the heimlich manouver...

and ct, theres a very good chance lewis will get brain fade in interlagos... he has alonso caning for his 3rd championship and KR is salivating at the chance of claming his first...i think its very possible that hammy will get a cramp in his hamstring...( bad joke i know )

...he may well choke on it...

Considering how close ice man has come previously... Was it 2003 I'm thinking? Where Shumi had to score at least 1 or 2 points to win teh championship, Rubens did sweet FA to challege Kimi and he won the race (Which he had to do to have any chance of winning the driver's), but Schumacher still managed to score a point or two at Suzuka.. I'm sure he'd love to avenge that defeat...

Imagine how close it would be if Hami had his points deducted from Mt Fuji??? :)

Oh yeah, Massa FTL! f**k anal rampaging Brazilian twat Massa... He needs the 101 from Schumi fast, or put Webber in a red machine... Kimi/Mark... FTW!!

Its all very tantalising thats for sure. The track is a tricky one so it'll be good to see how it finally plays out. I reckon Massa will win (or should win) but Ferrari wont let him finish infront of kimi if they can. Its really too close to call... the fast turns suit ferrari, but the bumpy surace and harsh ripple strips will suit Mclaren.

still waiting for that photochop!

i dunno. The wheel base of the ferrari should be suited to Interlagos all round i think, so we can safely guess that we will have a very close 4 way battle on our hands come sunday two weeks time...

this championship could not have come down to the wire any better than this! What a grandstand finish it will be.

CANT WAIT!

also remember there are going to be ALL SORTS of midgames being played in the next two weeks...

all designed to make the other person crack come race day...i dont know if Hammy will be mentally tough enough to deal with this kind of pressure, F1 style..

FA and KR on the other hand...well, theres no doubt there is there?

awhahahah! Thats a scenario i hadnt thought of... bloody hell could you imagine it?

i reckon theres a bit of HIT MAN money being thrown around at the moment...im sure Massa has been asked to take one of the macs out come race day...

Go Kimi :thumbsup:

Unfortunately I still think Louise will take the WDC, but at least the odds might be slightly longer than $1.03 now so maybe some money to be made...

Massa....Come on. On Alonso's gearbox as FA exited the pits, on cold tires, Massa on the softer compound and up to temp, and he couldn't even put a move on him. Terrible.

If Massa is to take out a Mac, hopefully its LH. If 1 of the Mac's has to win the WDC, I'd much rather it be FA than the bitch boy LH.

Was so satisfying seeing Kimi storm up to LH's gearbox before putting him in his place and driving off into the lack of sunset. Then seeing LH beach it... have a pack of chinamen running around like a Benny Hill show, and then LH having a teary because they stopped trying to push him out of there made my morning (I watched the GP at 5am after work, stayed well clear of any/all results though)

Wasnt that baseless ramble from James Allen? He talks more shit then me...and thats a lot.

Lewis, Lewis, Lewis. Shame to see the kid fall so hard...but. What i have been reading lately suggests he isnt enjoying all the media, WDC pressure etc. I so want to see Alonso hand it to him and win the WDC...anything can happen. That would leave such a bitter taste in his mouth that next year he would come back stronger and would most likely be a better driver and WDC for this years experiences.

And awesome work by Vettel. So happy to see him bounce back with an awesome drive.

...and despite the lack of love for Ralf (including me) only Super Aguri and Williams are the only teams to have not commented on wanting Ralf for next year. See if my dark horse call gets any legs over the coming weeks. I wonder if Vettel woudl be released to race for Williams. I doubt it...but he appears to be a bit of a gun!!!!

And...its funny how different angles tell different stories. This one makes old Lewis look a little more reckless then the vid from the crowd

if you believe all the dribble ITV spout at you during each and every race, this photo should confuse the shit out of you

wtf????

thats so bloody strange to show him the board in that config to him while hes going over the line...????

P2?? well yes but was that necessary? who was driving?? was it Gonzo or Hamstring?

    • If it's magnetic what is stopping you from using a magnet on a thin wire from fishing it out?
    • Those 2 solenoids in that assembly I mention, are the PWM solenoids for torque converter lock-up clutch & EPC (line pressure control) ~ when most folks hear of 'solenoid failure', the tendency is to think electrical failure...but fact of the matter is, especially wrt the EPC solenoid (which is moving/running all the time), you can have an electrically 'good' solenoid, that's absolutely broken/worn out mechanically inside...ie; valve plunger return spring rubbing against spring retainer plate, lowering preload pressure.. ...and the solenoid armature extension limit spring wafer with bad wear/broken off petals... ...and if there's ever been any metal flying about, damage to the valve plunger end itself... ...the stuff one never really sees, unless you go the whole 10yards trying to answer the question "why is my line pressure screwy, but TCU isn't flagging any EPC solenoid fault?"...and carefully dissect the solenoid. Worst (and most probable) scenario is when the plate spring petals break off, they get held by the magnetic flux, get mashed up by the armature into little bits, which end up in the space between the armature & shading core bore, and things get stuck or randomly jam up, and your line pressure goes flat and doesn't change...and the TCU never sees it, as it doesn't actively monitor LP... ..then it gets into insidious land, if you end up with lower than expected line pressure...lets say high clutch..and the lower pressure causes it to slip ~ when I say 'slip', think say 2000rpm on the drive plates, and 1800rpm on the driven plates, because the slip is making them under-rotate by 200rpm ; you get all the usual nasties like heat and band/clutch wear, but even if it's only 20rpm slip the same thing happens...and... you'll hardly ever pick this up driving the thing with the torque converter active as it effectively masks these sorts of slippages that are line pressure related ...(the newer TCUs can detect clutch slip rate)...just  FYI as it were...
