Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

On a beautiful gesture in the direction of Robert Kubica won the Formula Renault 3.5. Before the race the World Series by Renault competitors lined up on the track for a group photograph of presenting a huge banner with the image of the Polish driver and the wishes of "See you soon Robert!"

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

Gp Shanghai - 56 laps
Webber from 18°in grid to 3° place ( 3 pitstop = 10 laps hard tyres + 46 laps soft tyres)
Vettel from pole position to 2° place ( 2 pitstop = 25 laps hard tyres + 31 laps soft tyres)
Hamilton from 3° in grid to 1° place ( 3 pitstop = 18 laps hard tyres + 38 laps soft tyres)
Total pit stop time:
Webber 1:05.665
Vettel 43.528
Hamilton 1:01.978
better to make more laps with soft tyres(faster) than one pit stop in less
Funny moment: Button in the Red Bull pits

Okay, here is my understanding of it:-

Before the start of the race, the race director allocates an area of the circuit where the DRS (Drag Reduction System) can be used and a timing point, slightly before it, where the inter-car gap is measured.
If a car is following within one second at the timing point, the DRS will become available in the allocated area and the driver can activate it.
It should not be available in the first two laps.
It should not be available outside of the allocated area.

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

Well, I scored my first point!
Thumb up
As you know, everything must have a beginning... and, after all, one point is better than nothing.
Next time, I'm sure, I'll score more. Cool

Sure a Fantastic Race,but they couldn´t stop them 6 or 7 rounds before they had wave the "Checkered Flag" who the constellation was 1.Vettel 2.Hamilton 3.Button than at this point myself and 6 other guys who had played this game had voted that constellation for "Top 3" and had earned 12 Points but the damn tires had destroyed all hopes,in this way a "Special" THX to Pirelli Angry

this may be true, I would have had maximum points after the beginning of the race 1 Button 2 Hamilton 3 Vettel if they were driving with Bridgestone and as so many times in the past finished the race in that order. That fact that Pirelli now supply the tyres makes this game so much more unpredictable, which also makes the race much more exciting.

Webber because of his bad qualifying, didn't wear so many tyres so it was possible for him, with a good drive and new tyres to get a podium place.

I have a question, can somebody please explain to me what is the ruling on opening the rear spoiler ?
