But I wish Ferrari will be taking the Constructors championship again. I trust Ferrari's reliability and I hope that either Kimi or Massa will take the driver's championship.

Long Live Scuderia Ferrari!!

Yeah, Ferrari's engines are the most reliable IMO. I can't remember the last time they had an engine blowout.

Besides, an engine blowout can hardly be the fault of the driver. I'll blame the engineers. Most F1 drivers are skillful(oh yeah Kimi's skillful nod.gif ) enough to shift up at the redline and no later. Any later and they lose time and face possible engine failures.

shit up the redline? It's not that simple. Keep pushing the redline all the time, you'll half the engine life for real. that's why drivers have different rev settings to use during different phase of the race to protect the engine. Senna, Schumacher, Prost, are the ones that can guess specifically and correctly when to use which rev during racing. Racing is not easy as many of you here think. Get in the car, drive flat out, win. It's more complicated than that now that the FIA want's the engine to last more. (Stupid move IMO, driver will less likely to push).

Hmm yeah I agree with you on that one. smile.gif
But still I put the blame "mostly" on the engineers for not making a reliable engine. I don't think drivers would want to hear, "go easy on the engine okay?". laugh.gif
From what I know, they put a rev limiter so there is no need for the drivers to estimate when to use which rev in a race. The engineers and drivers work together to estimate where it is best to put the rev limiter. So the drivers won't get to the redline anyway. Correct me if I'm wrong please. notworthy.gif

And here I think Kimi will have a problem since he is not into the technical stuff. sweat.gif

@Jackygwh:
Which seasn was that? If it was last season or season before, it wasn't engine it was hydraulics(transmission).

Only one team used the REV limiter last season, and that was the V10 Ford of Tollo Losso. It was rev limited so that it can emulate the V8. Remember that because of the restrictor, it was THE MOST RELIABLE ENGINE last season. Putting a REV limiter on the V8 will be a retard move, as it will limit the already limited power of that engine. The Schummi blow up in Japan will always be Schummi's fault, I don't blame his engineer.

The V8s are most of the time rev limited as well to improve reliability.
Don't get me wrong, I do agree with your points. biggrin.gif

I hope that car works. sweat.gif
And I hope Kimi will not be taking unnecessary gamble like last time when he refused to change his tyre which had a flatspot. dry.gif
If he changes he would definitely still be in the top 3 but his suspension broke and he got nothing. Hope Kimi matures this season. smile.gif
