Considering the absolute limit at which they operate - the car often starts to move while the refueling rig is being pulled out - will they keep doing that with the tyres? Start moving while the guns are still attached?

No the only refuelling fun was when Christian Alberts drove away too early and took the whole fuelling tube with him.. :)

That was Massa doing that as well as recent as last year.

True, but Massa has already proved what he can do in F1. When it happened to Alberts it was just pathetic.

I was on a plane during that race, and arrived at an F1-receiving TV just in time to see Albers taking the rig with him. Epic. :lol:

Have the 2010 published tech regs been revised as of yet? And have any of the new teams threatened legal action if they are changed?

Sorry if I missed it, but my family just moved 1000 miles away from our last home, so I have been out of touch for a week or two...

Any info is appreciated!

During FP2 a guy from Bridgestone was talking about the front tyres for 2010. I'm sure he said they would be 245mm wide. If anyone can confirm that, it would be awesome.

If they actually are 245mm, this is what F1 cars will look like next year:

That looks quite pre-war... :wtf: I thought the tires would be of smaller radius not width.
