2005 San Marino Grand Prix

Flibster · 24 Apr 2005 at 09:24

Barrichello on track. Not a happy person this weekend really.
Apparently Barrichello is on the harder Bridgestones and M.Schumacher is on the softer compound.

Not a bad lap though.

No change in track or air temps.
Bit of a breeze building up though.
Next out - Sato

Flibster · 24 Apr 2005 at 09:30

Sato's on a nice lap. He has improved a lot of the past couple of years.
Anyone remember his first year with Jordan - more starts than laps....

Wurz on track. He's got nothing to lose this race really.
He has to prove that he can still race after god knows how many years as a tester.
Not a bad lap at all. last sector was a bit slow though.

Massa out and about now.
He's a zipply quick person round here.
However - has had an engine change so will lose 10 places.

How quick was Sato in the final sector? Damn...

Button now leaving the pits.
Track is slowly warming up - but not really fast enough.
Button is a beautifully smoothy driver.
Reminds me a lot in style to Damon Hill actually.

Congratulations, Cake and sparklies to the pole sitter

oooh...Luca de Montezemelo looks like someone's just shoved a slice of sharp lemon up his bottom.

Race show starts at 12:00 today so I'm off to edit video for a couple of hours to free up some space.

Berger said:
Really quick by the pole sitter, have to wonder why ITV dont show it live though

Because it would cut into the programming time for other more profitable stuff. Like...Coronation Street or the latest reality tv crap.

Stupid thing is - they have the rights to show Qualifying 1 and 2 live *even though they sometimes show us Qualifying 1 several hours after it's happened. :mad:

Now about to start - Race starts at 1pm

Plus - as a bonus - It's followed by the classic film Tora! Tora! Tora!

One of the biggest problems with San Marino is that it's traditionally a seriously dull race.

Ever since 1994 they've made the too safe. Typical FIA knee-jerk reaction.

As for the cost cuttin features they want to introduce....Going form a 3.0 V10 to a 2.4 V8 - so a totally new engine configuration with zero previous data.

Like thats going to be a cheap thing to do. :rolleyes:

They'd have done better introducing a rev limit or a power restriction. Shrink the airbox again or restrict the exhaust size.

As for the testing that Ferrari have done - 9 teams agree to do only 30 days a year - Ferrari have done 21 days this month alone!

Also in the new Concorde agreement Ferrari have the power of veto over any suggestion that is made. So if someone suggests something that the other 8 teams agree with and Ferrari doesn't - it doesn't go into the rules.

Like thats a good idea. :rolleyes:

Stoddart - what a funky chap.

I want that chair of his

Shame the flat isn't being enough for it though.
