How could it be posible for KR to have 4 faulty engines in 3 races?..I am feeling sick....Really, it's a shame.

What a shame...

Hope they leave Lydden alone, was there for some great club racing yesterday!

Great race from a car club I'm involved with. 18 BMW E30's with 18 novice drivers now that was exciting.

I dont think it's the engine that is the problem. Isn't it the way the motor is connected with the electronics and what not that is causing the problems?

That's what's being said because it's not helpful for them to blame Mercedes.

Seeing the entire contents of the engine blow itself to smithereens is not an electronic problem.

That's the reliability issue, but the lack of pace is down to the engine being the second least powerful on the grid.

You're absoutly right....if they had the power of the BMW or Honda i reckon they'd be #1 or #2.

Right now I feel like I am being kicked in the nuts! Being a Mac fan is rather painful at the moment.
