Agreed, Schumacher had full Ferrari support which lead to 7 WDC titles.

Team orders are not only about switching positions during the race (both LH and MS guilty as charged here). It is about not attacking the leader during the race, covering his back deliberately slowing down or undercutting the competing driver by forcing him to pit in non optimal part of the race etc. It is also often giving the new / improved parts to the leader first, which we have seen in many teams in the past.

Any fan who is deep enough in F1 and tactics understands this.

I know the scope of team orders and so does a.wayne. There is nothing "deep" here, just common logic. Contrary to what u seem to think you aren't the only knowledgeable racing fan here.

Why didn't u answer post #137?
 
I have answered your question in my last post. If you still don't get it ... then I'm sorry.

Just admit it. You didn't answer because contrary to your proclamation the facts are that none of Hamilton's titles actually came down to a team order....
 
Come on guys. This is AudioShark, the good guys’ forum. No need to argue incessantly about F1 - these days especially...
 
Nascar tidbit ,

A few years back , Hendricks and teams with Hendricks powerplants we're having quite a bit of engine failures in 500 mile races , turns out everyone using German made Mahle pistons where having these failures , apparently Mahle ( one of the best piston makers ) had under estimated piston stresses on big ovals and pistons were coming apart .

Nascar engines have higher piston mean speed than even formula one and Mahle underestimated what the good ole boys already knew ...

Higher piston mean speed than the previous generation F1 engines, that used to rev up to almost 20.000 RPM ?

What is the stroke and RPM limit on IndyCar engines ?

Yes , higher than F1 engines , they rev to just about 10K and have a stroke long enuff for porn. :)



F1 engines have a stroke thats more like a buzz by comparison ....
 
Once again stiff is demonstrating his great knowledge regarding cars....

He can't keep straight the difference between F1 motors and NASCAR motors....
 
Re: Formula 1

I believe current F1 displacement is 1.6L. Rev limit is 15,000, but because of fuel flow regulations (100 kg/hr), I think most cars don’t go much higher than 13K.

Talks suggest the 2021 rules will raise both of those, though. Revs to 18,000.

Yep 1.6

The pistons in a NASCAR motor are like coffee cans compared to a can of fruit in the other motors....

I'd love to see the top of the F1 motors be 20,000.....
 
Re: Formula 1

I couldn’t agree more. It would have to help the sound of the turbo’d V6’s. I’ve conceded the dream of revisiting V8/10/12’s but a high revving version of what we have now could be cool in its own way (reliability issues aside).

Lets hope the fuel flow limit will get rised (THE limiting factor right now). Nothing will bring back the screaming sound of the NA F1 engines reving up close to 20.000 RPM though :/
 
Someone finally had the balls (Ralph Schumacher) to call it like it is..Claire Williams has got to adapt or step down if Williams is to survive.

Her "deputy team principle" title is stupid and tells it like it is...she hides in the shadow of her father's past instead of forging her own present.

I fear Williams will close or be sold and that would be sad........

I agree. Running a historic F1 team that spends $200 million + each year means your last name can only take you so far before people demand a return. Especially a prestigious team like Williams.
