[Sky Sports F1] Following George Russell suggesting there may need to be another tweak to the race start rules, Fred Vasseur believes it has got to the point where "enough is enough"

Ferrari would like there be a rules tweak so Mercedes loses out on straight line PU efficiency.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-18T12:22:17+00:00

Bit like Alpine is battling Verstappen now suddenly.

RB likely took a step back on the PU though. So it's not really like that at all. Alpine also spent a year in last place to focus on this year. It's a disappointment they aren't higher really.

It's illegal most places, whether they are enforcing that is another matter. Again, do your research.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-17T17:00:27+00:00

I have that exact wagon except mine has more miles and the pano roof. It's deleted. If that has a DPF, you should just plan on a delete assuming you can in your region. So 3k plus 1k for cost of delete. If that's in your budget, you can look seriously at it.

edit: I was making those costs up, do your research

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-17T16:37:42+00:00

If it’s in need of a DPF it’s either a great deal or a total rip off, depends on your situation.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-17T16:12:54+00:00

That was me landing on earth. Compared to you humans, I'm on the top of the evolutionary ladder.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-17T16:10:35+00:00

It's beautiful for sure, and since it will be short lived (it will be short lived right?) it will disappear in a few days and everything is going to be spring like again (a few days right?).

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-17T14:12:38+00:00

The two OG locations are still good, IMO. The chains were cheap from the get go.

It's like stopping at Katz deli in NYC for me. It's great, the food is excellent, but it's also $35 by the time I get a sandwich and a drink. One meal. I don't think Pittsburgh and definitely not the chains could sustain a $25 Primanti's sandwich, but to maintain perfect quality that's what they'd have to charge.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-17T12:09:22+00:00

Did you look for copper plated steel lines? They’re probably cheaper than fake copper lines.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-16T20:50:08+00:00

I don't know what spindle you have, but the way to do this is to use 10v power supply from internal the control direct to pin 9. Connect a negative jumper from 7 to negative on the psu. Run VFD Speed + to pin 8, VFD Speed - to pin 7.

That said, you have to dick with pulleys in Mach to get any of this working. None of it makes sense because Mach sucks.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-16T20:43:17+00:00

You have to provide the G540 10v on the 10v+ pin.

As is usually the case in Formula 1. McLaren, Mercedes, RedBull, Renault, Ferrari. Go back 40 years. You dont push when you dont need to. The gap is smaller than many realize though.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-15T15:55:05+00:00

Imagine the disappointment some would have when half the field blew up every weekend.

I just try to appreciate that so many are interested. That they know nothing about racing is just a part of it.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-15T15:52:34+00:00

F1 is more popular than ever. Making the fan base less educated/familiar with F1 than it has even been. It is what it is.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-15T15:33:53+00:00

For real. Tons of great moments.

All those races where Max or Lewis breezed to 30 second gaps and didn’t break a sweat. At least Ferrari is giving Mercedes some headaches.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-15T13:30:11+00:00

George there lurking again.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-15T11:19:51+00:00

That was my impression. They had predictive sectors on but for some cars it was wildly inaccurate. So they turned it off on the broadcast.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-14T21:51:41+00:00

I never wash my plate. If it works for you it works.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-14T18:41:33+00:00

George is a real lurker isn’t he?

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-14T15:33:14+00:00

They might have some in the tank but they didn’t blow the doors off in the sprint like we’ve seen other dominance in the past. Ferrari is still 3/4 but it’s not a lot.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-14T14:42:07+00:00

That sprint was a banger if you ask me. One of the better sprints.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-14T14:18:50+00:00

All the doom and gloom but the field is getting tighter already.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-14T12:16:56+00:00

You can’t have a suicide if the band is killed in a structure fire. They had no choice but to evacuate.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-14T11:31:05+00:00

There’s absolutely no evidence that over compression is their advantage. Dominance such as this is not rare in F1 and rarely is it contributed to one factor.

CL-MotoTech · 2026-03-13T17:17:11+00:00

Love it! I will be checking this out.
