unless somebody (fisi) ass ends somebody who entering the pits, because of that rediculous setup, nothing will happen

surely anybody whos worth their half their pay in that design team saw that both the exit and entry were completely unacceptable

First thing you said - I say wait and see.

Ive... seriously. Youve never been there, they've never raced there so how the hell does anyone know whats going to happen tomorrow?

You cant predict anything going by a few practice runs and a quali.

I say their neck muscles will be falling off after half distance. This is going to be a massive test for them physically.

Humid, long, hot and tiring...oh and did i mention rain? And walls?

Second thing you said - That entry and exit are bullshit, i agree. Barrichello was proof of that. Its weird even on tv..it seems to go into pit lane then it disappears, joins the circuit then cuts in sharp back into pitlane.

They cant do anything about it now, so lets see what this unexpected "spice" will add to the equation.

I think we are in for a lot of surprises tomorrow with fatigue as well as rain being major factors.

I reckon Ferrari are playing it safe by fueling Massa light and mark my words he's VERY light.

1: Yeah, weather, fatigue and endurace will play a big part.. I say expect saftey cars..

2: Pitlane exit and entry are fcked, I'd say expect at least 1 accident to occur as a result tomorrow.

3: Rain a good possibility.

4: Massa... No more than 3 laps lighter than Hammo, at most, at par or a lap lighter... I reckon the Fez have been sandbagging a bit.. Both qualified on the softs... Expect awesome times as they shift to the super-softs.. Kimi a dark horse.. More fuel than Lewis, maybe on par.. But heavier than Felipe..

5: Alonso either to 3 stop or run a killer long first stint.. Will work if saftey cars come out...

Will be close me thinks..

Weather unbearable..

However, still excited!

I'm super excited about the night race tomorrow!!

I think I'll actually sit and watch it all for once.... kinda gave up after JPM left :(

I was reading this article: http://www.motorsport.com/news/article.asp?ID=309108 while I was searching for info/goss about the Singers race and lol'd at this:

Q: David, your feelings about the final four races and are you any closer to deciding what you are going to do for the rest of your life?

DC: Well, I don't have to decide the rest of my life, hopefully it will be a long one.

I love when reporters ask dumb questions and they're smartarses back :laughing-smiley-014:

Yes...

P1 for Massa.

Lets watch and see how far it can take him tomorrow.

One thing i was amazed about was how good the circuit looked on TV. It really is easy to watch and i if i can see plenty of track at 10pm Snigapore time on TV, the drivers were having it even better.

Its a damn fast track and with 24 turns you can bet your right nut, things are gonna happen tomorrow night.]

There are a bunch of corners where a driver can easily get it wrong.

Turns 8, 10 and 16 are a couple of examples.

The lap when he stops for fuel will reveal all, but Massa seems confident at present and focussed on the WDC. Considering how tricky the circuit is and how even Webber couldnt get a good lap in Q2, neither could Lamo in Q2...i am not discounting that Massa just got it right....again!

What will be interesting is how racey the guy with no balls will be from P3. I hope he shows as little respect for Lamo as he did for competitors the last race.

Roll on what could be an interesting race and with that pit entry being what it is i can see plnety of jockying for position at critical moments of the race.

COME ON MASSA...you talentless hack in teh 2nd best car takign it to the self proclaimed best i the game driving the best car :closedeyes:

I dont know if you saw the incident, but the f**king muppets in the stewards box have f**ked up someones race again.

NH was coming into the pits on the very left of the track minding his own business clearly doing the right thing on on a flawed racetrack and along comes RB on a hot lap.

Now NH didnt do anything wrong - the entrance to the pitlane is f**ked up. So is the exit.

Even the FIA acknowledge this,

So how they can drop NH 3 places for impeding RB is farkin stupefying.

Not only has that caused enough out rage they go and compound their stupidity by giving RB a 10000 euro fine for going too fast in the decelleration zone.

seriously, WTF.

Streaming is up.

Try this link if (like me) you enjoy watching the live timing along with the race (although the streaming is usually 45sec behind the live timing).

my favourite qualifying commentary bit was the discussion on who was going to sneak into P10 in Q2 and advance to Q3 with Alonso out.

lots of chit chat every team but mclaren named.

pre-race started on ITV.

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
