Red Bull Team orders

Yeap Marcus,
if it was brake issue, I think you are on a good explaination.
If a stone or something got stuck behind the pad, or the pad jammed in the caliper (due to lateral impact for example), you will neither see it in the brake pressure nor in the brake wear sensor (which is normally piston travel afaik), but you would see slightly higher brake temp on this side.
As the brake wears down it will get less and less, until the poblem is gone, which should not take too long - IMHO.
As for the induced yaw, I agree with you that this should be perceptable, but the diff is probably compensating (trying to compensate) for it, so it may does not show up as such.

I left the diff thing out of the explanation on purpose as I´m not sure of how much lock they use on drive ..sure they ´d lock up the thing on overrun to have more stability ,but then again this is driver preference.


for sure having anti knockback springs on the pads which was something much in use in earlier days of motorsports...that was costing quite a bit top speed ...but driver confidence is important and you don´t want to stab into a pedal that is not providing a rock hard feedback..

Not bad for a number 2 driver

Race Edit from Monza is up. There is a radio snippet there that I don't think was broadcasted live. In conjunction with Vettels pitstop he is told "You'll be close to Mark and Rosberg, give mark room". Afraid of a Turkey rehash maybe? =)

Yes, I was quite surprised. I thought that all radio was broadcast since Hockenheim. Or it could've been Hungary. I forget. But still.

If I understood it correctly, all radio is available for broadcasting. But FOM chooses what they broadcast.

[raymondu999]

Yes, before Hockenheim. Then they said they'd broadcast everything

[Paul]

If they'd broadcast everything, there would be constant & overlaying jabber throughout the broadcast. I'd rather FOM release full recordings after the race so anyone interested could listen to them.

No, that's not true. Before Hockenheim the teams could still choose what radio traffic were to be available for broadcast. But since Hockenheim they can no longer do that, so all radio conversations are now eligible for broadcast. If they were to broadcast everything it would be like Paul said, constant chatter.

All radio traffic has been available for FIA the whole season, its the broadcast availability that has changed. It would be awesome if they released the whole recordings afterwards though, but I doubt that it'll happen.
