Korean Gp - Practice 3 - Lotus Renault Gp Report

Bruno Senna, R31-04

P16, 1:40.451, 19 laps

 

Vitaly Petrov, R31-06

P7, 1:39.612, 20 laps

 

A dry yet overcast Saturday morning in Yeongam allowed Lotus Renault GP to take part in an uninterrupted third practice session as both Vitaly and Bruno gave Pirelli’s soft and super soft tyre compounds their maiden outings of the weekend.

 

Although using softs for most of his trouble-free session, Vitaly out-paced his team mate on the faster super soft tyre with a time of 1min 39.612secs, which left him in seventh position after 20 laps around the Korean International Circuit.

 

Birthday boy Bruno was less fortunate. Brief contact with the side wall before the session’s halfway mark resulted in a damaged front wing, and forced the Brazilian to return to the garage for a suspension set-up change.

 

On returning to the track, he clocked-in with a best time of 1min 40.451secs on the super soft tyre. The time left him 16th in the standings having completed 19 laps.

 

At the top end of the rankings, it was a case of Rule Britannia as Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton took the top two times of the session.

    Help…. What would you do?

    I pick up my ‘new’ Exige on Friday. Whilst it was being prepped, the dealership have found the fans are a little worn and are going replace them. This obviously means taking the front clam off. This is not going to cost me anything so should I take the opportunity to replace the rad and aircon condenser whilst the clam is off? I will not have to pay any additional labour so would only have to pay for parts which come to around £750.  I get 12 months warranty with the car so if either w

    S1 Type 49 Elise Refresh

    And so the winter refresh of my S1 Elise started today. Hoping to take front clam of tomorrow. However of the 4 lower bolts that hold the lower rear to the chassis, 2 are spinning and 2 won't budge despite copious amounts of penetrative oil over the last few months. The Eagle eyed will spot my Dremel tool which I'm not looking forward to using to remove 4 bolt heads that have limited access. Currently on my list are replacing the driving lights brackets, shot blast and paint the tow post, n
