2006 Malaysian Grand Prix - Race 2/18

What I've always done is if it's shown live - the results go up live...

If it's shown delayed *:rolleyes: @ ITV* then I'll put the results up but hide them so you have to highlight the text to read it.

This is live *Although I'm not...should have got some kip rather than staying up all night...* so the results will go up. :D

People with engine changes who are getting a penalty:
Massa
Villeneuve
Coulthard
Barrichello

From what I've heard - M.Schumacher will have his engine changed.
 
Just spoke to a mate @ Ferrari...

Shumacher has had an engine change between the free practice this morning and qualifying.

Best he can get is 11th...

75% failure rate from Ferrari...but there's "no problem"... hmmm....
 
What do three Ferrari’s two Honda’s one BMW and one Renault all have in common?

What do three Ferrari’s two Honda’s one BMW and one Renault all have in common?

They all need to be changed in their respective chassis before tomorrow afternoon’s Malaysian Grand Prix and all bar two of them will face a ten place grid demotion as a result.

Rubens Barrichello’s name has now been added to the ever lengthening list of drivers needing an engine change before qualifying even gets underway here this afternoon, ironic when it was the Mercedes powerplants constantly failing in winter testing.

However, things could still change in that department before the day is through with Toyota and Cosworth also still running in fine form at this stage of the weekend.

List of changed engines:

Michael Schumacher - Ferrari V8
Felipe Massa - Ferrari V8
David Coulthard - Ferrari V8
Jacques Villeneuve - BMW V8
Giancarlo Fisichella - Renault V8
Rubens Barrichello - Honda V8
Yuji Ide - Honda V8

Ide and Villeneuve will not be penalized however as both men failed to finish the Bahrain Grand Prix due to circumstances beyond their control.
 
Gascoyne splits his time

Attempts to locate Mike Gascoyne on the Toyota pit wall failed on Friday because the technical director was still at team HQ in Cologne.

With the Japanese owned team in crisis after the nightmarish Bahrain opener, Briton Gascoyne opted to fly back to Europe and planned to arrive in Malaysia on Saturday.

“He stayed (in Germany) an extra two days just to keep the pressure on,” Toyota president John Howett explained, “and look for further improvements.”

Jarno Trulli and Ralf Schumacher look a little quicker at Sepang, but that is probably more to do with the warmer weather than a real improvement in the way the car deals with its Bridgestones.
 
Willis rejects Friday 'test day' idea

With only a handful of Malaysian die-hards speckling the grandstands on Friday, it has been suggested that the opening day at a Grand Prix should be devoted to free testing.

Red Bull's Christian Horner told the Telegraph newspaper that combining testing and a grand prix could save money and give paying spectators something to watch on Friday. “(The current situation is) ridiculous,” he slammed.

But Honda's technical director, Geoff Williams, played down the case for doing away with an increasingly meaningless practice day.

“Part of the reason why a lot of the drivers don't go out,” he said at Sepang, “is because the conditions are not really useful (on the dusty opening day).”
 
Briatore calms 'all-Finn' rumour for 2007

Flavio Briatore backed away from a double-whammy of driver speculation in the scorching Sepang paddock.

The Renault chief was faced with gossip that Kimi Raikkonen could be signed to replace Fernando Alonso next year, with Giancarlo Fisichella possibly also moved aside to clear the seat for another Finn, Heikki Kovalainen.

“This is the second race out of 18,” Briatore marvelled, “so are we going to talk about it for 16 more?”

In his near-impenetrable accent, the Italian added: “At the moment I do not know. Anyway, I do not want to talk about this.”

I see Ferrari are running a new front wing - gone is the daft wee flap under the centre section and it's replaced by a full width flap between the nose and the front of the end plates.

It's an interesting idea - especially when you see how much it moves..

It's not adding much in the way of downforce - it's mainly more of a flow conditioner.
