Channel 10 coverage.... bullshit long adds every few minutes. F***ing c**p.

interview on the podium, didn't work out.

Enjoyed the race, what I got to see of it.

Walk of bishes, not as good as those already gone, the english just didnt deliver.

Was a good solid race from RBR & Ferrari, although once again comes down seemingly to tyre degradation once again as the factor.

lol @ Pasta yet again hacking it up.

I think Grosjean though had the most epic of races. To only be 17 sec off the leader @ race end after having to pit for a new nose on lap 2... Would've been very interesting to see it play out. Lotus are certainly onto something, just need a little bit of luck to go their way and its podium time i think.

great race. :thumbsup:

pasta marinara was handed a 10,000 Euro fine and given a reprimand by the race stewards for his part in a collision with Sergio Perez during the British Grand Prix.

Kamui Kobayashi has been fined 25,000 Euro for his incident in the pits during the British Grand Prix.

Hamilton is really not happy with McLaren at the moment

I cant believe they were saying "we're in a good spot now" when he came out in front of Grosjean, who then was immediatly faster. What race were the Mclaren guys watching :S

Can't help think that if Lotus got on the front row they might just run away with a race. Kimi and Romain both smashing fastest laps at different stages.

Great win for Webber but, drove a solid race, good to see how planted the car is, it looked amazing through the corners

But whoever was directing the race coverage, what a $hit job. So many times they cut away when there was a car catching just beore the DRS and missed an overtake to go get some shots of something pointless. I think it was useless coverage of an exciting race

Not really, everyone had the same deg on the soft, webber just had the right tyre strategy over Alonso who had the softs at the wrong time

More races like that please! Tyres didn't fall apart on anyone and DRS wasn't too intrusive most of the time. It was almost like they took all the fake stuff away for one weekend, and we had a ripper of a race. Also another prime example of the cars being able to run closer than ever, even through some of the fastest corners in F1 resulting in lots of passes outside the DRS zone. See, they can make their own passes!

Yeah the best races in F1 are those that avoid the fakery.

    • 1. I can't see a location on your profile but you do mention GBP so I'll assume you are in UK. In Australia, CBC make a timing belt kit with the gears and idler and tension bearing and that is what I use without any problems. I'm sure OEM or HKS are also fine but I wouldn't pay extra for HKS over anything else. 2. Yes, I would always change the idler and tensioner and the stud and bolt that hold them in. Assuming they were all done last time it is highly unlikely you would have a problem, but they are very cheap to add to the job considering the time it will take anyway.  3. No, you don't need to lock them as such (I think that is more for engines without timing marks), but you should make sure they move as little as possible once the belt is off as you can hit pistons on valves if they move too far. As always, make sure you line it all up to top dead centre with the timing marks aligned before you take the old belt off.
    • How to wreak havoc at a bogans party... Swap out the goon bag hanging from the clothes line with oil bag... Watch chaos ensue during Goon of Fortune....
    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
    • How does this compare to the internally gated g25-550 in terms of power production at same psi and spool
