Malaysian GP 2009 - Race 2/17

and high downforce cars....

It's relative though I wonder how much downforce is between the cars now to then. Take 97 for example those cars where high grip high downforce yet it didn't take many years to gain back all that downforce and more after the reg changes. The cars could soon take Eau rouge flat, they all could where they couldn't in 97.

I bet the actua Downforce figure from 91 to today are not that far apart. Yet I bet the wet tyres are much better.

What?!?

20 min till 12... 10 min restart warning... 1:30 of these people un-lapping... 8:30 mins to Race..under the safety car? eh?

 

[Glaucus]

I'm pretty confused :S?

same as when you have a normal safety ca, lapped people have to unlap themselves, it's such a gay rule though.

Bit of a farce this, is this race going to stop after 2 hours? If so why the hell are they going on about restarting they've only got 20 minutes left!

Even if they do restart all they will do is go behind the safety car for 10 minutes which won't change the points or anything so seems a total waste of time.

for tv, purposes, cos most peple that watch are in europe theirfore they need to put the race at a more favorible time for advertising..

What happens when you get a senile midget in charge moving all the races to parts of the world that dont care.

You have mail.

Did you send it to my live email account?
The other one doesn't work any more - just not got around to changing it

 

[Skeeter]

Hang on, didnt they used to be able to stop the race, wander about for ages, and then run a second half of the race on agrigate? And that didnt affect the 2 hour timelimit cos it was effectely 2 races and the times got all added up, which consuses everything! lol. Remember they used to do that.

Sent through Trust, so whatever is there.

Email me (in trust) the address you want it sent to.

Not really, if there was a Force India between say button and Glock, that car then has a massive impact on any restart and. If the race was stopped as the top 3 or 4 were scything through 5 or 6 back markers, it would be a nightmare with people having to move over and in the limited visibility, you'd be in the doo doo.

oh, looks like it's brightened up.
