Low pressure due to not being up to temperature?

Fisi back in front of MS, bridgestones far too cold. Alonso struggling to.

Well, I'm sure its fairly easy for them to come off due to the forces involved in an accident, but they have tethers between the rims and te chassis to stop the rims flying off, but the tyres themselves can cause a lot of damage if they come flying off.

is he running light? or just pure speed?

Joe T · 25 Sep 2005 at 18:12

Let me guess, Montoya is light on fuel.

Flibster · 25 Sep 2005 at 18:12

Alonso has put his foot down - 1:13.746 on lap 6

Great race so far.

Great minds think alike!

The Mc is a fast car, but I think he's light on fuel too.

Montoya on another fast one.

1:13.160 on lap 7

This is what i dont like about ITV coverage of F1, they have 4-5 adverts during the race. A1 GP had zero adverts during the actual races. Just lots of them before and afterwards.

If they run lower pressures then McLaren they'll be horrible when they're cold.

The low pressure post of mine was aimed at the Williams with the tyre coming off the rim.

Alonso looks like hes settled down a bit now. Montoya is doing some very fast middle sectors.

im here, what have i missed?

The McLarens have no reason to be excessively light on fuel I don't think, they have such raw pace as it is.

Richard T · 25 Sep 2005 at 18:14

klien is all over jense like a bad suit

Joe T · 25 Sep 2005 at 18:14

The fact that alonso has dropped into the mid 13's and Mclaren in theory are ~.6s a lap faster than the Renaults...

Could have a larger fuel load...

Honestly can't tell.

Montoya sticks in a 1:13.002 on lap 8...

Aaaand pizza is here...
