Sunday weather update - dry race expected

Chinese flag and F1 flag. Formula One World Championship, Rd 3, Chinese Grand Prix, Preparations, Shanghai, China, Thursday, 16 April 2009

Welcome to race day for the third round of the 2009 FIA Formula One World Championship, the Chinese Grand Prix at Shanghai International Circuit.

It will be partially cloudy once again with an ambient temperature high of 22 degrees Celsius. There is a likelihood of some rain around lunchtime, but it should have dried up by the start of the race.

The race will run over 56 laps of the 5.451 kilometre (3.387 mile) track, or 305.066 kilometres (189.568 miles). It will start at 1500 hours local time, which is eight hours ahead of GMT.

Its wet. Awesome work by the top 3 to go the low fuel to try and do a dash from the front while the heavier cars play in the back with the spray.

So hope Webber can get it off the line and beat Vettel to the ends of the first lap. This has to be his best chance of a win to date, wet weather with predictions that it will be drying. A team mate who if behnd wont be too agressive and a lighter Alonso.

COME ON MARK! But Vettel is a strong chance of doing a Monza, a controlled drive from the front while the rest are fighting for boiled lollies

So happy, as an RBR fan couldnt ask for a better result as both drivers were top shelf in tough conditions. Webber was just a little too slow on his in and out laps and strangely pitted before Vettel, which i guess was a pit wall call. But Webber drove almsot as good a race as Vettel, which was faultless so :down:

Stuff coming hom for early May for a break or doing the Burger Ring like i planned, i am booking my tickets to the Spanish GP :(

Awesome result for Red Bull! Best race in ages!!!!

I'm a bit confused as to why they pitted Webber before Vettel though! Not favouring the young whippersnapper yet surely? LOL

I just kept laughing at Lewy spinning round every 3rd lap. Lol top effort :down:

    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
    • Brand was ard.   I also threw a brand new battery at it and beefed up the wire from the alternator to battery and added an extra earthing point from the battery 
    • Evening all,       I'm replacing some bolts on my RB25 with probolt Australia bolts.       Does anyone know the following, m5 m6 etc 10mm 20mm etc       Coil cover   Cam covers   Plazamaman fuel rail   Front cover (timing cover)   Etc   Any help would be awesome   Or any lists anywhere
