  1. Reckon you can run an F1 team? Three slots available in our IGP Manager game igpmanager.com/play/?url=leag…
  2. Win number 145 for Renault engines. 3rd in all-time list.
  3. 29th win for Red Bull. 7th in the all-time list.
  4. That was Mark Webbers's 8th grand prix win. =33rd in all-time list with Ickx and Hulme
  5. @MartinHaven Told you that there would be some weather. Has been weather all race long!
  6. No action against those that cut the first corner
  7. @MartinHaven I can confirm that there will definitely be some weather here during the race.
  8. @Dostro89 Ah yes. The rule remains the same. It's there for a sensible reason but was very very frustrating!
  9. @FJB19 Interaction between road and a hypothetical carless tyre will always be the same, adding a car to the mix completely changes it
  10. @FJB19 He means that the way the tyres react is not absolute but determined by the way the car loads them etc. Reflects car characteristics
  11. @Dostro89 Sorry - not sure which Tweet you were responding to! Let me know and I'll do my best to reply!
  12. It should be noted that Hirohide Hamashima of Bridgestone used to say exactly the same thing when drivers moaned about their tyres
  13. Still lots of tyre moaning. As Paul Hembery pointed out a few days ago, it's not the tyres as such but the interaction between car and tyre.
  14. @vlsf1 So alongside tech infringements there are a few other exceptional cases.
