A Statement from the Bianchi Family
Nice, France
Saturday 18 July 2015
02.45hrs France │ 01.45hrs UK
It is with deep sadness that the parents of Jules Bianchi, Philippe and Christine, his brother Tom and sister Mélanie, wish to make it known that Jules passed away last night at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire (CHU) in Nice, (France) where he was admitted following the accident of 5th October 2014 at Suzuka Circuit during the Japanese Formula 1 Grand Prix.
“Jules fought right to the very end, as he always did, but today his battle came to an end,” said the Bianchi family. “The pain we feel is immense and indescribable. We wish to thank the medical staff at Nice’s CHU who looked after him with love and dedication. We also thank the staff of the General Medical Center in the Mie Prefecture (Japan) who looked after Jules immediately after the accident, as well as all the other doctors who have been involved with his care over the past months.
"Furthermore, we thank Jules’ colleagues, friends, fans and everyone who has demonstrated their affection for him over these past months, which gave us great strength and helped us deal with such difficult times. Listening to and reading the many messages made us realise just how much Jules had touched the hearts and minds of so many people all over the world.
"We would like to ask that our privacy is respected during this difficult time, while we try to come to terms with the loss of Jules.”

Prost was a much better racer than Senna
>They raced together, head to head, 141 times. In order to be fair to both drivers, we will only consider head to head races (which benefits Senna, because Prost was great before anyone had even heard of Senna).
>Generally, Senna was faster in qualifying (where he gained his legendary status), winning 60 pole positions to Prost’s 23. This, of course, is due to two reasons — Senna was a reckless risk taker… and more often than not, he had the better car.
>However, as soon as the race began… everything changed.
>Despite Senna’s qualifying speed, Prost devoured him in terms of fastest race laps — 33 to 19.
>Of the 141 races, Prost finished 111 times and Senna 101. This again was primarily due to Senna’s proclivity to crash into walls and other drivers with reckless actions behind the wheel.
>Prost finished in the points 102 times. Senna 88.
>Prost had 88 podium finishes. Senna 73.
>Prost had 41 wins. Senna 37.
>World Championships… Prost 4. Senna 3. Although, Prost should have won the 1988 season over Senna, but Formula 1 was fiddling around with that ludicrous points system where only certain races counted. If all races counted, Prost would have won easily, making the actual World Championship count 5-2 to Prost. Oh, and Prost came within half a point of winning in 1984, when the F1 committee ludicrously only awarded half points at the Monaco Grand Prix. This cost Prost his 6th title. So the actual count is Prost 6 and Senna 2.

How exactly does that work with gravel?
Also that requires you come at the car either head on or from the rear which a lot of times is not possible.
And it's super fiddly meaning you would be spending even longer out there recovering a car.
It isn't as bad as the FIA idea of using a helicopter to recover cars but it ain't far off.

He's an utter tard.
He thinks his tiny frame will be strong enough be strong enough because that's what the pit jacks do.
>"i dont think the 700kg is a problem 1 inch steel frame is going to be strong rember in the pits 2 mechanics lift it."
A pit jack has to carry half the weight of the car, ie 350kg, and needs braces despite the load bearing section being a only 1 foot long.
His design features an unbraced 4 metre length, that he expects won't bend with 700kg concentrated on a single point in the center when it's winched up.
Backmarker 07/21/15 (Tue) 17:00:50 0d9bad No. 16930

Fuck I just realized: even the A-frames aren't braced to the center.
They'd just fall inwards as the top beam bent when load when load is added.
Oh shit, I also just realized: He seems to think that added an extra triangle at the rear, less than a foot from the other one, somehow makes it stronger.
That increases the vertical load capability, which isn't the problem.
He somehow lacks understanding of the most basic of structural engineering concepts.
Concepts that even non-engineers understand.

I can't even imagine the laughter in the engineering room when someone brings this up. And then says it's been designed by someone probably over 8 years old.
Besides, if some driver were to pile into this contraption, he would hit the car with his head. And then the car would fall down because of how shitty this design is and the poor driver would just die while clueless marshalls try to lift the car crushing him. Hell, it looks like even moving the car around would cause it to fall from the planks.

for the longest time raikkonen was far and away the most expensive, largely because robertson (his manager was so good).
the drivers that are the products of young driver programs are generally paid little, and have no recourse as all their sponsorship follows the program (like with redbull) not the driver. think of how vettel had a sponsorless helmet but for ferrari's sponsors.

Swapped the steering rack in my E36 to a quicker ratio one from an E46 (3 turns vs 3.5) today.
Also replaced the rubber steering flex disc with a solid aluminum piece.
Way more headaches than I planned on.
Started at 9am, finished packing up at 4pm.
Worked outside in the rain for a lot of it.
I am fucking knackered.
Feels damn nice though. Sharp turn in, and very direct feel.
Just need to get an alignment done now.
