I think we have a new Metaphor....

"Homoesque" meaning Ego outstrips talent,Idiot mistake on the last lap costing your team the desperately needed points !

Great Team player , Eh ?

Think pussy bitch phoned him in car on the last lap to dump him for being crap and he Lost it !!!!!!

Highlight of the race for me, commentators desperately wishing it was Kovi !!! priceless !

enough gloating.

Forza Ferrari !

So, interesting times at Renault. Old Flav and Pat, are they escape goats, more to the blackmail claims again the PK hacks? Either way, i would say Renault will lose its way without the two of them....and by years end Renault will not be in F1 as a manufacturer, at best they will be engine suppliers to Williams with a technical working relationship with Williams, just lke the good old days when it was Williams-Renault

LOL, my crystal ball is working well today

Agree Roy, Renault will be out from this season as a constructor.

I watched the race live, but also watched the replay on One the other night..... does anyone agree with me that the comentators just suck? Like really, these guys would be on big bucks, but just suck!

Brundle not realising that Kubica's front winglet would have been damaged when he turned Webber across the front of him, and the outrageous amount of man-love for Hamilton, look, I know they're Poms, but it's a worldwide telecast, stop trying to blow your countryman on global television!

Renault will not contest allegations either so it looks like they're going to face a ban from F1 regardless!!!!

Also looks as though BMW have found a buyer so they're (Sauber) likely to be on the grid next year.

lotus is back, and sauber has been purchased by Qadbak Investments, looks like sauber will be running ferrari power too

agreed, they are shithouse. It's almost like they are watching delayed telecast their calls are that slow. then I realise it's just their brains that are slow and they take some time to understand what their peepers are lookin at. I can now comfortably tune them out!

I rate Alonso very highly. Let's not forget that he is a double world champ and beat the best of the best, a Mr Michael Schumacher at the time.

I hope to see Alonso in a competitive car next year. It would be awesome to see the 3 world champs on the grid (Kimi, Alonso & Hamilton) all in fast cars next year competiting for the podium!

I think Button is looking very good for the championship this year. I won't begrudge him winning it either. I think he's very talented and deserves a world championship.

The Lotus announcement makes me laugh. I have worked in Malaysia, work wit lots of Malaysians in a highly regulated industry and its laughable that they think they are going F1 racing with Gascoyne and a Malaysian team of designers, engineers and mechanics. Can also guarantee that whoever this Sauber buyer is, with BMW leaving Petronas probably have ann avenue to walk and will go with Team Malaysia, i mean Lotus :banana:

Well I guess there is only one way to learn. The team will probably be as Malaysian as Renault is French. Or Toyota Japanese. But you are right a highly regulated, sheltered economy is no way to learn how to get on in F1.

Anyway hard to see them stuffing it up worse than Renault just did.....

I am not saying that they should be Malaysia. I think the way Toyota go racing etc is correct. You employ the best people, and typically they are out of Europe. They have the most experience, the right environment and education. Trying to make this a Malaysian venutre is the wrong approach.

If you had my experiences workign with Malaysians on engineering projects...well, you would not be tipping Lotus to be ahead of the other teams starting next season

Flava Flav and Pat Symonds have left Renault

Alonso will now 100% be off the the fez

and shit is about to hit the fan

my crystal ball....

:happy:

alonso off to ferrari

and renault out before the end of the season (kinda by choice- current events providing a convienient excuse for a very quick exit)

    • I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car
    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
