Before Austria Quali...Lewis was asked on Sky...if he had done a track walk...He said that he didn't do them anymore...he could see all he wanted from the car...adding that he was made to do them at one time....
If he had done that track walk...he would have seen the bump made by the truck racing...that he hit in Q3 when he was braking 8 metres later than he had all week-end & changing down at the same time...causing him to spin & miss out on pole...he was up on time ...3/10ths?
It is the boring fundementals like this that could lose him the championship...I am so glad he has realised...
Lewis yesterday put up a pic walking the track with Paddy. So when it comes to a race engineer it may be one name, but making the car go fast around the circuit I'm sure is a communal job.

Zetsche has slammed Bernies style of governing and marketing F1 in the wake of a poorly attended German GP and said he should hand it over to someone else. Ouch!! He has also said , as others on this forum have said, Merc don't care whether a German or Briton win the championship because they have to market and sell their cars to a world market.
