Turun Sanomat reports that McLaren installed Heikki's front tires wrong (switched left & right) in the start:

"On my career this hasn't ever happened before", Heikki explained.

For McLaren it has happened before, in 2006 in Paul Ricard testing they did the same to Alex Wurz and the result was a big crash.

"The tires were marked on Friday and weren't checked afterwards. I got a good start but immediately realized that the car pushes horribly when the tires didn't work at all."

"On the pit stop they added front wing as much as they could to make the front heavier. As the tires where then right, it might have caused the breakage. The change would have helped if the tires would have been still wrong but now the car became oversteering."

"It's not so much my points, but for the team it was a bad setback. We can just continue trying but it's getting late as next race is the last."

So whats his excuse to being owned by Alonso in a straight line drag - in a Reno. Alonso's -0.6 is just engine power?

to be fair he did have horrible understeer going through that last turn before the long straight and was way off line

without that problem he'd have been much faster exiting onto the straight

OK, so here's a slightly unrelated question...how the fuck do they get the satelite feed so quick? When the nightly news interviews someone via satellite, there's usually a fairly significant delay...maybe 1 to 3 seconds...but when windsor and the guys talk back and forth, it's almost seamless.

How dem do dat?

I think if you compare live timing to tv, it's like a 2-3 minute delay.

I'm starting to think everything FA said last year was true You never see any of this happening to Wunder Boi.

[yonson]

I think this was the first time the speed guys have truly gotten on my nerves. Varsha isn't there, so the brits just think they can go into ITV hammy-nut-swing mode. God bless Matchett, he kept it pretty neutral, but windsor and hobbs were fucking pathetic.

I really hated hearing that dude speak... Varsha RULES!

Australian? Please tell me it wasn't Leah Diffy or whatever that cunts name is!

Oh yeah, I'm sure the video is slightly delayed...it just seems that windsor and the studio guys can talk to each other with no delay...even better than international phone calls.....

i have a vonage line overseas and communicating half way around the world shows little to no noticeable delay when they have sufficient bandwidth..

it may just be the way the satellite communications has to get routed through receiving stations, etc compared to a direct internet or land-line link which is carried over by optics, and where the data switching is much faster

Poor exit speed + drag.

Remember that the cars are only about 1-2 second difference from the front to the back of the grid in terms of pace.

I don't think it has ever been so close in terms of lap times, but the teams at the front still have that much on an edge over the course of a weekend. That's really amazing.

[MrHahn]

Yeah that was him.

Oh snap! America getting our dregs, I feel sorry for you guys

Yeah heikki had a pretty awful run into the straight but the Renault engine all year has been one of the slowest.
