Race One: Won!

With a perfect start to the GP2 Asia series, Lotus ART's Jules Bianchi won race one at Abu Dhabi's Yas Marina Circuit.

 

After qualifying in second place the 21 year old Frenchman put in a stunning performance during the 36 lap race to come in first ahead of Lotus Renault GP reserve driver Romain Grosjean (DAMS).

 

Unfortunately Bianchi's luck ran out in race two, where GP2 rules dictate that the top eight from race one start in reverse order, despite finishing in fourth place, just narrowly missing his second podium in two days, he dropped to eighth place after being identified as one of three men that the stewards adjudged to have "not respected yellow flags". Lotus ART's second driver, Esteban Gutierrez, came 22nd in the first race and 12th in the second event.

    Elise S3 Brakes

    The brakes on my Elise 240 FE never felt brilliant but at 2.5 years old in the cold and wet did nothing when pressed, a few pumps later and some braking happened. I took it in and the pads (oem from new) were glazed. I replaced them with Pagid RS42 and updated fluid. Difference was night and day.  Now, a year and maybe 3500 miles on and the pedal feel is a little wooden again (like can brake light or hard but nothing in between) and they are squealing really bad at town driving  speeds and lig

    Tyre comparison - short note on v105 vs ad08rs

    Elise S2 k series with standard geometry so set up to understeer gently. Which is exactly what I've been getting on runs out. Car is on the recommended yoko v105 tyres. There a two types the ones to get have a slightly stiffer sidewall and are recommended for mercs iirc. V105 is in my experience a very competent road tyre for all seasons and daily driving. Definitely recommended. V105 thoughts coming off a no longer available very old and hard and narrower front tyre.  As normal T
