Awesome to see Dan do so well, hopefully he gets away well tomorrow and isn't struck by Webber's startline curse

I don't mind seeing Hamo go well now because he's less of a douche these days but why does he always sound depressed even when things are going well for him!? Cheer up man you're living a lot of people's dreams!

Finally got to hear the cars. To me they sound a bit like a turbocharged MotoGP bike or something. Under any other circumstances the engine note wouldn't be too bad, and the turbo whistle on the overrun is pleasing, but the sound just doesn't marry up with the image. IMHO F1 needs a noise that leaves you in no doubt that the engine is within a bee's dick of blowing itself to pieces, and the sad fact is the turbo 6s just don't sound like they're trying no matter how quick they are.

As an aside, pretty much all the cars are hideous. Bring back the beauties of the mid '80s-mid '90s era.

BTW the app is the goods!

The commentary is the bbc and when it works it's good however in qualifying it kept dropping out..

I like the tyre info, the race updates and the team radio.

It's worth the $$$ IMO. :)

From the press conference.

Q: (Mat Coch - pitpass.com) Daniel, a question close to every Australian’s heart: what are you like at starts?

DR: Let’s see how we go tomorrow! Bit up and down last year. I guess everyone watched the races. I think they were on the up so let’s see how we go tomorrow. I think it’s going to be interesting for everyone now, with the V6 turbos. I think it’s also a bit of a different animal off the line. Hopefully we get off well.

I lol'd.

I actually didn't mind the sound of the cars. Sure it wasn't as nice as the old cars, but it's still decent.

    • The NZ wiring kit is a 1/3 the price and will be perfectly fine for your application, I've ran one for 6+ years and many others have. Comes as a full plug into factory connector and the settings for a Link. https://www.nzwiring.com/index.php/product/trigger-kit/ Always comes back to the tuners knowledge and experience with a tuning platform. It takes years to become proficient and learning all aspects and capabilities. I've been using Links for 16 years now (rb and sr paltforms) and always learning something new with adding tables, diagnostics and data logging. Stay 98 for the usability and keep it simple so you can enjoy the car more. With experience I'll give you a current example of the industry I am in. They use Motec m190 and only use VE tuning when they have a torque mapping available and would solve the "PARITY" issues that plagues the category all because the muppet doing the tuning doesn't understand the platform or want to learn it and the product seller have no idea on its full capabilities ( I had a good laugh as when firing up an older car that just got completed and they didn't understand the injector scaling or how to change it for different fuel being used)  
    • I'm sure there are specific hygrometers for it. But if you can just throw a high enough ranged temp sensor (theromcouple that came with your DMM, for example) into a pot of it on the BBQ, you can see when it boils.
    • I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?
    • Yeah, that and throwing away opened, part used, closed back up bottles has got to be bullshit. Brake fluid sits in not-very-well sealed master cylinder reservoirs for literal years and keeps working (albeit we know we should flush it every couple of years - it actually still works). Anything kept in a bottle in the shed with a tightly capped lid has got to be a million times better than what has been in the car for the same length of time.
    • Wait, they're claiming UNOPENED fluid has a shelf life of only 18 months?
