Maybe they should have kept the dodgy Pirelli compounds for this and refuelling ... Exciting race my ass

The tyres haven't changed yet - they're aiming for Canada or British GP. Its just that track doesn't have any real long/high load corners to f**k the tyres in the space of a few laps. And you can drive as slow as you want, just about, without fear of being passed by everyone. I thought all the slow corners might hurt Mercedes rear tyres under power, but that's not their problem apparently.

Anyone who has ever watched Monaco before knows what to expect in terms of the racing. Absolutely no sense complaining about that.

I don't agree Perez was in the wrong in any of those moves - certainly not the one where Kimi ran him into the armco before the corner!

And he was more than fully up alongside Alonso and made the turn-in to the corner no problem whatsover. When someone has you up the inside like that and there's no room to fight it - sorry, you've lost the position. Even if you are Alonso and even if you are in a Ferrari.

Just when you thought that the tyres were the worst thing in F1 along comes a safety car period that just will not end despite Massa's car being cleared ages ago.

they needed to use microscopes and tweezers to collect every sliver of shattered carbon-fibre

    • How much ya asking drunkan 
    • A few other things to round out the chassis mechanical checks. Diff is nice and full of new oil, pretty sure it is Castrol VMX (I run the same on Award's recommendation). I didn't pull the cover to check, but I'm 90% sure the diff centre is a nismo mechanical (old school, not the gt pro). Gearbox is also nice and full of fresh oil, not sure what it is but not redline. Tailshaft bearing looks OK and a tailshaft loop is in place
    • Front lower control arm is standard with new ball joints, tension rod looks like JJR spherical. Front upper control arm is standard with adjustable bushes in the outside end     Rear arms are all nismo, surprisingly all the bushes at either end look standard but in good condition Subframe has standard bushes with lock collars HICAS has a lock bar with standard ball joints at the hub end
    • Next, shocks/springs/swaybars It has Sydneykid valved Bilsteins with HKS pillow ball hats all round. Springs are Eibach race springs on adjustable height platforms, with helper springs in the rear to stop rattling. These are 250 all around but easy to change for something else if required. Swaybars are powdercoated blue but would be Selby's/Whiteline solid adjustables, 21mm rear and 24mm front. Bushes and links in good condition All in good condition, no sign of leaks/damage etc
    • yeah for sure.....remember to put your tools away at the end of each day kids!  Actually it has been kinda nice working on the car, lots of memories of good times. I can pretty much hear him telling me off for stuff still.
