Rain in Spain?

Rain in Spain?

Mega.

[ivey]

Unbelievable if we had another wet GP . How lucky can you get, though I'm not counting on it yet.
Virgin will only have 1 upgraded car in Spain, so we can compare Lotus to Timo Glocks virgin.

Yes please let it rain, it might make the race at Catalunya-wn exciting for once.

At this rate this season is going to have been even wetter than 2008 was!

[vaptin]

Nooo! Not rain, Alonso doesn't know how to start his car properly in a wet gp.

The rain in Spain, falls mainly on the plain track!

Personally I pray for changeable conditions for all the races remaining; at least it adds some spice...this season has been better not because of the new rules but the changeable weather conditions throwing all sorts of curve balls for the teams...

More F-duct developments: Fisi has been straight line testing Ferrari's version of the device, they've made their own 'active' version (ie like McLaren's system) to advance from that one they ran in practice in China, which was passive like the Sauber f-duct. I think they are supposed to test this new version again in practice this weekend but it might not be used in the race. Sauber have been working on theirs too but i don't know if it is 'active' or not.

He said Ferrari have an F-duct and they have just done straight line tests.

Its "active" thefore driver adjustable like Mclarens so it can be turned on or off.

As aposed to a "passive" which means that it only works when the car hits a given speed, so thefore is less effective.

Yes I read that and did not want to seem rude to Sir Scotty by pointing out that there are two other open threads discussing the F-duct, that is why I found it confusing.

[scotty]

WTF?! Does it really matter? Anyway i posted here as well cause they're running it in practice and it may have implications for the race if it works!

Not sure what your problem is with the whole patronising (and pretty damn unprovoked) 'Sir Scotty' comment but i don't really care either.

Yeah, basically.
