Is it just me or has 10 forgotten to have an ad break for a long time..?

I was going to make a comment about that. It must be a new record for them haha.

Bottas and Alonso are showing some serious pace. Hopefully Nands gets a podium.

Hmm, other than the McLarens it appears those who rode their luck in quali didnt have good races. Britney & Tool had poor results whereas their team mates who both screwed up got results. So did Bottas - excellent drive, no mistakes and little risk to P2. Shame the car is still so far off the pace of the Benzes.

Also Lotus have signed with Mercedes for next year. What now for Red Bull?

So I tried buying into the whole Susie Wollf "yay we've got a genuine female chick-type woman driving in F1 now!" thing and looked up her racing career to try and convince myself it has absolutely nothing to do with Toto's position.

- 3 years in Formula Renault: 48 races, 0 wins, 0 poles, 0 fastest laps, 4 podiums, best season finish 5th
- A short stiint in British F3: 2 races, 0 wins, 0 poles, 0 fastest laps, 0 podiums
- 7 years in DTM (2006 to 2012, Toto headed Mercedes' DTM campaign from 2006): 72 races, 0 wins, 0 poles, 0 fastest laps, 0 podiums, best race finish 7th, best season finish 13th

2012: Williams F1 test driver (and Toto is...).

Sigh.

I hear Renault are happy as frees up reaources to concentrate on RBR

Hmm, maybe it frees up resources but it also means they miss out on income from selling engines. Which they appear to need, badly.

In other news Maldanados crash wasnt his fault. Cant say that very often.

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
