Does Kimi Break His Toys?

A driver hitting the limiter is also slower and not making the most out of the engine-gearbox.Perhaps thats what annoyed Fisi's engineer the most!!

Well, here seems to be at least one guy with brains!

Nice to read some sensible words, instead of normal bulls##t.

Just because you don't agree with something on here doesn't mean it's bulls**t...

And it harms the engine too.

Well they don't call it Rev-limiter for nothing!It cuts down the revs so that the engine is not damaged!

Your car has a rev limiter. Try driving on it for a while

I could try, but I don't think my car has many similarities to an F1 car though...

[cavallino 2]

Yep, your engine is meant to last about 100,000 km. F1 engines are made to last about a thousand.

Yea now i see your point !There is no way to compare the two!It's like a Kite and an F-18!They both fly but...!Anyway i don't recall Kimi, the times i happened to see onboard cameras overrevving his engine!Yesterday during qualifing i clearly heard FA doing it!Nobody else did??

Suzuka '05..

Kimi was hitting the rev limiter very frequently(by his own admission)

Yea but...he won that race didn't he?The car didn't blow to bits!I heard FA overrevving his engine yesterday.You didn't notice it?I don't think that besides lost time anything else bad happens, though.

You are far away from my original point, you know....

The Ferrari engines were sub quality and were also not being run at maximum capacity.

Can you remember the last time an engine broke in a Sauber?

But I have checked....

In 2001

KR had 10 finishes, 7 retirements, 3 were accidents

NH had 11 finishes, 6 retirements, 6 were accidents

Was Kimi harder than Nick?

Im not sure what to think, Kimi had 4 mechanical failures to Nicks 0.

Maybe that says something.

2001, when Kimi was driving sauber, was the best year ever for that team.

Maybe that says something.

Just because you don't agree with something on here doesn't mean it's bulls**t...

Neither doesn't it mean it isn't

Anyway, if somedy thinks that when engine goes to limiter it blows, I guess I CAN say it is bulls##t.

Not really.... no proof whatsoever as-per-usual

And it harms the engine too.

When engine hits limiter, driver misses full power. So, if you think that Kimi is missing speed because he hits the limiter, what do you say about Montoya? Maybe he is driving on limiter all time!

Well, that is something I call a deeply-thought and well explained answer.

You won't hear me saying this often... but right now I'm willing goldenboy past Alonso... seeing as him doing so would benefit a certain M Schumacher

and yes it was a well thought out answer... you have provided no proof of your statements whereas other posters here have some evidence.

I was just watching Montreal GP, when Mclaren ruined Kimi's pit stop. After ten seconds of tyre change, they didn't eventyally change his right rear tyre at all! Maybe you find some way to put this to Kimi's fault too

Maybe he didn't explain clear enouhg to mechanics that wants also the rear tyres changed

Nah that one is his team being sh*t, well it is all run by Ron Dennis, F1s version of Comical Ali

Well you can't blame Kimi screwing up that hairpin on his mechanics... and it turns out all his wheels were changed... oh dear.

If you didn't notice i was answering to the matter that was being discussed !Which by the way is absolutely relevant to YOUR POINT which is if Kimi breaks his toys!Sorry to say but you seem to lose your own point and TRYING to be ironic!I expected more from you Apuma...

[narain fan 0]

Yea but...he won that race didn't he?

no he didnt....

[tifosi too! 0]

no he didnt....

So Kimi didn't overtake GF on the last lap and won i guess... Historical error maybe??

[Kay 0]

no he didnt....

Sorry but in which reality were you during that race?

I just deleted my long post. It's not worth it.
