It's not the lack of free to air that has turned me off. Half the time I watch a recorded race anyway cos I don't fancy still being up at 1am and having to work the next day. It's not the Mercedes d

Whats funny is if Nico gets up the haters will say it was becaise of unreliability. But Hamilton seems to be fine with a WDC from when Massa blew up whilst in the lead with only laps to go.....got lucky with rain on the last lap in Brazil etc.  

Just like when Nico had a throttle problem in Singapore yadda yadda...the more vocal English press gloss over the fact that Nico had problems in the race that he managed whuilst Lewis had problems in practice and quali etc

Anyway, I dont care so do remember all the details. Not like the Webber - Vettel years :)  I almost want Nico to have a DNF due to gearbox failure and then beat him with two wins in the final rounds!

Good race. Many lols.

Verstappen gets a penalty for the same thing Hamilton gets away with.

Verstappen won't redress because he wants third.  Then gets penalised and drops to fifth.  Then gets promoted to 4th which is where he would have been had he redressed.

Then Lauda pours a bucket of shit on him.

Vettel goes postal and gets nothing.  Moves around under brakes and gets spanked.  Good good.

Rosberg looks like he will cruise around in P2 to the wdc.

Hoping like hell the new rules for 2017 will include some interesting racing for the lead instead of p3 at best. Newey looks to be half interested again.

Farcical 1. All those penalties were a joke. As were all the drivers comments during and after the race. 

Seems if they're not handing out 40 place grid penalties they find other ways to keep themselves occupied - in this case by artificially modifying the podium

Bernie should start watching some MotoGP to see what real, exciting racing looks like. Not only is f1 boring as watching paint dry these days, cocksuckers like verstappen get f**k all penalty for shit, while vettel cops it for doing less than verstappen has done 50 times in every race this year...

LOL at Dezz - jilted Ferrari fan. Don't worry they will win again and you will love F1 again. Might be waiting some time though.....


It's actually got nothing to do with who is or isn't winning, the sport is actually boring now. That's coming from someone who still doesn't miss a minute of quali or a race... The moment there is some action, there's a stewards review and someone's penalised...

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.

      Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".

      I removed the head expecting to find broken and bent valves, but instead found number 1 at TDC and cylinder 2 at the top of its cylinder stroke as well, thought that was weird and proceeded to push cylinder 2 back down until it either bottomed out on its other piston half or the conrod either way we found the issue kind of,  now to remove the engine and see how the block looks, hopefully its just the top off a piston.

      A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
