But you know, I think it looks better than it handles. Sometimes you could even drift the car, which is...... ( I thinik you could spot that on the vid, the car's sliding too much as for a Formula One car )
Very funny to see Renault got fooled by Ferrari, Michael did a fantastic drive, interesting to see it's almost the reverse of last year at the same place. I like this race.
Last GP in Australia was hell fun, openning lap saw a huge battle between Alonso/Button/JPM/Raikkonen for P1, Button despite his tyre temprature problem beautifully defended his position and led the first lap, then safety car came out b/c accidents at the back, when it went in Alonso made a well timed overtaking down on the backstraight, and Button suddenly under great pressure from Raikkonen and JPM, who as teammates, battled each other big time.......safety car came no less than three times......at last guess what, Button's engine blew spectacularly 100 meters before finish line.
This is what I call TELEMETRY Firstly thanks for the info guys.
But if that's what you call TELEMETRY, I think I will have to show you some idea on what is a proper one in my vocabulary.
Figure 1 to figure 3 are based on a test at Silverstone with an Arrow F1 car.(Courtesy of RacerAlex setup guide)
Figure 4 to figure 7 are based on a lap at Barcelona with a F2004 without TC.
Figure 1.E. Alexander’s 1m21s509 front ride height trace over C. Wynn’s 1m19.853 reference lap. In the above trace you can see how the front is bottoming at seven distinct points during the lap. This will require raising the front ride height slightly.
Figure 2. The above Chassis Slip Angle trace shows the added grip the car has achieved after some changes on the antiroll bar and front wing angle. Note the grip is not rail-like, but rather, the car handles better by breaking away slower and more gradually, allowing the
cars limit to exploited easier. This is reflected in the top right trace: note how in the highlighted Abbey section, the 1m19s197 lap (green) has much more slip than the slower 1m20s612 lap (yellow). The friction circle in the lower right corner shows how this increased slip allows a higher lateral acceleration to be maintained. The Velocity trace shows the car's averaging almost 5mph more through Abbey now.
Figure 3.Incremental time difference: Gray = C.W. 1m19.987; red = E.A. 1m21m506; yellow = E.A. 1m20s612 In the above trace it can be seen that E.A was losing time at Stowe, Club, and Abbey. There is a second and a half to be had there.

F1 is generally considered to be the pinnacle of motorsports, or more specifically, of open wheel racing. It's widely accepted, but not everyone thinks so. That's a correction to your like, not really a "correction".
Do you watch this year's formula one? Or did you watch last race at Albert Park in Melbourn? If you claim there's no overtaking after you watched a race or two this season, I would think you're kind of illepall .
The speed and look of the BF1 just totally blew me away, from a driver's point of view this machine is bloody quick and the brake is like hell. Boring? No. Exactly the opposite.
Not sure, because I am afraid you're gonna miss a lot of fun.
from lfsworld.net, u could download all replays of the wr, and when viewing the replay, press esc to select "test drive", that's how i do it, with my own setup, i can't make it into 55 after several tries.
How often does that happen? I haven't been following F1 for that long but I couldn't see things like Bernie telling drivers to back off happening in today's F1. Farewell to those good old/stupid days.
