Mark Webber has made his strategy work brilliantly and drove an excellent 71 laps to claim the Brazilian GP. Kubica joins him on the podium with a stellar drive, along with Hamilton, moving up from 17th position. Jenson Button finished 5th, enough to secure his first world championship title.

Looks like Lotus took number 2 and 3. Can't see a number 1 listed on the official results page http://www.formula1.com/results/season/1971/514/timbo wrote:Can't find info - there weren't #1 and #2 cars at 1971?richard_leeds wrote:You could also add Jochen Rindt.

Basically, longer back straignt, more flowing from turn 4 to turn 8. This would really break a engine, teams would really have to look for a compromise between high speed and downforce needed for the infeild section. Cars would struggle and drivers would be tested.
Im not really looking for a massive ammount of increase in lap distance, i would just like a second place to overtake, somewhere to goad drivers into making a pass, not quite making it and paying a bit of a price for it, like the Senna S but in more of a hairpin style. Also a area for a second bite of the cherry for careful drivers that just cant get the car to stick into the Senna S as well. Also a more "Tilke eske" element from that hairpin to Turn 8 to test out wether the cars have the required downforce. Making the track more of what i find and think a a F1 track to be intresting with.smirkoff wrote:You can join this campaign:ESPImperium wrote:I was looking at the Interlagos track layout and think id like what i did to it in this pic:

A lot of drivers want to have the old track back, integrated with a revised version of the current one, in order to get a longer, multi-functional and more daunting track. The group leaders are all multi-champions of brazilian formula, touring, stock and prototype cars, and they are trying to get support to have the plan approved by the mayor. There's a lot of people sending layout suggestions in discussion groups around here.
About your layout, the straight could be indeed be longer, and the Ferradura (corner #6) could use part of the old circuit that's still there.
That looks more like the INdy type of diamond grinding rather than the side of the road rumble warning strips... looking at the angles at which they were put in, and the water on the track, I would say they were grinded in to help alleviate some of the cross track rivers that flow when it rains at Interlagos.zgred wrote:Simple question - what for?
Clear out all the polystyrene on the track after Grosjean slammed into one of the track side markers.ISLAMATRON wrote:red flag in FP1... why?
