I have been thinking about Glocks crash and the fact that he seemed not to react to the crash at all.

which I thought was a bit strange then I remembered about Rubens doing the same sort of thing this year in qualy.

What is it with the 09 cars that is making people doing this?

I did think about maybe it is the adjustable front wings, but just not sure.

To me, that just looks like Glock not steering enough, to be honest :/

[scotty]

Brundle said Glock just 'wondered wide' - and once he got on the grass and started bouncing across it, the front tyres were never really going to get much purchase on the surface.... Which is the other incident you refer to? Singapore Q3?

[bud]

he exited the corner to wide and steered as he normally would, but that wasnt enough.

Hm, looks to me he steered quite a bit (90 degrees at some point) while the wheels didn't turn much. There was speculation during the Speed broadcast that it looked like something broke and the right wheel didn't turn in response to the steering input, which was later dismissed as an optical artifact.

[Rivelution]

I think Glock ran wide to get more speed out of the corner and once his tires hit the dirt it pulled him off the track. imo

Hard to say what really happened, him going wide to get more speed makes sense, understeer makes sense too due to the heavy acceleration out of that corner. I just don't understand why he didn't try to turn harder, even when he hit the grass he made no visible effort to correct, I am sure there was a reason, but he couldn't have possibly been full right lock when he went off.

Once he was on the grass, it wouldn't have mattered if he had put a spinnaker out, dropped an anchor and fired the ejection seat...that car was going into the wall regardless. That's the thing with a corner like that...you miss the exit by a foot and you are done. He had the wheel at 90 degrees which is probably pretty close to all he has. At that speed, bouncing over rough grass...he could feel in the steering wheel that the tires were not biting. Going from the pavement to grass like that feels like driving onto a sheet of ice...the steering wheel goes dead in your hands and it is obvious that you are no longer in control. He probably wasn't sawing on the wheel because he knew within a few feet exactly where he was going to hit the wall....if he had an active radio mic you probably would have heard him say something like 'ah, dammit' the moment his outside front went off the pavement. Nothing he could do from that point.

I can not remember where the Rubens incident was. he seemed to turn in ran wide but did not try to correct it. then bumped off onto the grass. I remember Brundle sayins something like "you can see the heat coming off his wheels" damb you beer induced memory loss. It might of been silverstone but not 100%
