Joe Papp commented on the post, Button’s complaint shows we need more team radio 1 week, 4 days ago
then military-grade radio encryption should be used
@paul-a – they already do. the problem is that they’re required by regulations to make comms accessible to the broadcasters via FOM (iirc).

@paul-a, sigh, no you are not alone.

Keith Collantine commented on the post, Vettel demoted to fifth with 20-second penalty 10 months ago
Are you really saying that if he had kept at least two wheels “on the track” there would not have been a collision?
I’m not making any presumption about what might have happened had they driven […]

@paul-a As Scarbs wrote, the alternators sit under the exhaust system, and on the lower part of the engine, the temporary solution might lower the risk of overheating, by reducing the temperature of the engine and exhaust.

@paul-a I did write that about Maldonado after Spain and I’m not sure I’ve ever come to regret my owns words more quickly.
His swerve into Perez in Monaco – which to me looked just as deliberate as his […]

davidwhite commented on the post, Vettel’s Valencia pace worries Ferrari 10 months, 3 weeks ago
@paul-a I don’t understand you’re point. What i said was that it was clearly Maldonado’s fault – which 99% of people agree with because, well it was that obvious. Where i think it’s valid for views to differ is […]

Oh, and to answer your question,
Could a driver “over-ride” his team advice?
@paul-a – yes they can. We saw it with some of the nice race from Button last year. And with Alonso several times as well. Vettel also […]

BasCB commented on the post, Rate the race: 2012 Canadian Grand Prix 11 months, 1 week ago
By your logic @paul-a we should have taken some points away from Vettel last year, just because his team made a faster car for him (thereby making it “unfair” in the drivers championship). And how would you even […]

bosyber commented on the post, Rate the race: 2012 Canadian Grand Prix 11 months, 1 week ago
@paul-a, Horner said they were already at that point aware they were not far enough ahead of Grosjean that if they pitted they could clear him so that might lose them the podium anyway; thus they decided to just […]

Very good point re: FIA Definitions.
It seems people just use the words that suit their argument best to twist the debate in their favour. Hence why those who believe it is Webbers are fixated on […]

@paul-a I agree with your explanation of the FWFD and how it doesn’t benefit in a race. I had raised the point once earlier that given most DRS zones are along straights and the FWFD is basically used to shed […]

Keith Collantine commented on the post, Four-hour time limit among new 2012 rules 1 year, 5 months ago
@paul-a I’ll take a swing at these:
a) The route the drivers commonly follow around the track. As we saw at Montreal and Suzuka, the stewards refer to drivers’ lines on previous laps for reference.
b) I would […] -
raymondu999 commented on the post, Will Vettel bounce back in Brazil? 1 year, 5 months ago
@paul-a as you say. The actual gases will expand/contract and change pressure in the same manner. I’m not sure where you got your expansion coefficient from, but one only needs to look at ideal gas laws to derive […]
