The one from the first race was replaced as a precaution in SA and is going to be returned to the rotation later. The 2nd one is apparently toast though - not because of the engine itself, but because parts from the water part entered the engine and they'd have to break the seal to take them out.

I like this: It is only $2.00/25oz can at Ralphs/Kroger. Drank this stuff one Saturday night after fighting a cold all week, I was done with Big Pharma and settled on a Big Fosters!

They figured the new "lump" was quick. But they didn't have the time to make it reliable. They figured to do that with reliable upgrades that are allowed.

Yep, with an engine freeze, you're better off starting out quick & unreliable than slow & reliable.

F1 has nearly achieved their dream of using DRS on the entire track.

The only place DRS should be allowed is in the corners.

The only place DRS should be allowed is in the corners. Or maybe we could open the DRS all the time...

Or maybe we could open the DRS all the time... seems I remember back when seb was winning the titles for the bulls, in qualifying, for a year or two, they could use the DRS anywhere, anytime. Someone correct me if I'm wrong as I'm to lazy to look it up.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong as I'm to lazy to look it up. Started in 2013, still the case in practice and qualifying.
