Honda's Right Front Wheel

What exactly is the problem with it? If the drivers are going to be put in positions like Matt was in, and having to make crazy moves because the pit stop was ruined due to the RF, isn't it about time you either fixed the problem, or started lining people up against walls and shooting them until someone does fix the problem?

It was just a small problem. All the teams are using the same equipment, just it went wrong for Honda this time. I don't think it will effect them again

It was a "small problem" that's affected them on every single pitstop this year and had one of the cars in the kitty litter!

The wheel hub's a standard TOCA part isn't it? Must be a bunch of duds then..

Wasn't it this sort of thinking that got Adolf Hitler to the head of the Nazi party, or Saddam to the head of the Baath party? This is motor racing for gods sake, not life or death...

As the other guys mentioned, the hubs, disc-bells, wheels, etc even the wheel guns and sockets are specified parts that everyone has to use... modifying these would be a breach of the rules...

Watch the TV replays... the wheel wasn't on properly so the guys took it off and tried again...

Seeing as you're an expert at wheel changing why don't you send them your CV... though it only takes a call to the AA or RAC for them to do it for you doesn't it?

No, it's more serious than that!
