Replying to @SpannersReady
All very weird with how he casually skipped the post-qualifying procedure.

Who’s saying it’s a conspiracy? If the pain was that bad, you’d radio to the team that you’re going straight to the medical centre, not pop into your garage for a chat first. It’s not like he’s got to do a handstand on the weighscale- it’s standing still for 2 seconds. 😂

Dunno about you @Carpervert @sniffpetrol but I’m always bemused by the flutes on the road relying on just DRL’s in heavy rain/fog. Is it just laziness, or stupidity? The LED’s aren’t bright enough, and most importantly, DON’T WORK ON THE REARS. No-one behind can see you! 🤦‍♂️

Has anyone else noticed how RedBull have the brightness of the dash display dimmed right down? Might be driver preference, but it does make reading any live data via the on-board/helmet cams very difficult. 🤔 @mattpt55 @BradleyPhilpot

Not sure if my reply got lost last night @BradleyPhilpot , but the W13 was positioned slightly behind the W14 (judging by the front/rear wheels). I guess the easiest tell is if the pedal access panel is further forward too?

While “axle” in its original form (solid beam linking 2 wheels) is no longer used in modern cars, the term is still used to describe a pair of driven or undriven wheels. An Evo has fully independent suspension and driveshafts, yet the workshop manual groups them as axles.
Well, when I bent the axle between my rear left wheel and the gearbox on my Formula Ford I had to fit a new one but I didn't change the other one on the right because it was fine ...
And now they’ve downloaded it from the car, here it is (and looks pretty damning for Max- xitter.gq/skysportsf1/status/146…

It's a whole new experience coming from the @paceward Evo to this, but Phil's learning quickly. 4 laps on fresh @pirellisport rubber, and his previous record was within reach with more to come! 😎
You don’t have to know me very well to know how excited I am to have a GT3 car at #CadwellPark today. Enter stage right: Phil Read’s ex. works Nissan GTR, minus BOP restrictions for Time Attack. 🔥🔥🔥

Looking forward to seeing what a car built to the limit of @TimeAttackUK regs can do! And as always, Matt’s work with the camera shows the car at it’s best 👍
My last job of 2019, I was commissioned by Roger Clark Motorsport to shoot their latest car. Their 2020 Time Attack Subaru is going to be some thing special. If you have some thing special and would like a high end magazine style photoshoot please get in touch.

🧐 @MercedesAMGF1 remain on a different level, note how they remove the panels next to the cockpit during a 2-3s stationary stop to improve cooling for the second stint. 🕵️‍♂️ #TechF1 #DevilsInTheDetails #SIMPLIF1ED

We already knew most of it but the release of the 2019 regs to the public confirms the following. A much simpler five element front wing, with low outwash effect, in part this is driven by a simplification of the endplate and only 2 strakes allowed beneath.
