In My world that last one is BAIT for catching something big enough to filet, or trading some poor unsuspecting fool outta the steak on Their plate.

but no Renault engine troubleshooting section, or as I like to call it........ energy recovery systems for dummies!
Read an article that blamed Flavio Briatore for the problem, his decision that his team (now Lotus) would develop KERS and not Renault may have led to these issues. The bad boy of F1 strikes again.

Interesting stuff there Sir. That 100mm (4”) drop is a very significant difference.
I like The E22 prong thingy too, sneaky bastards;)
Mucho different Tech from the NASCAR boys.
Thanks for the Linky.

Formula One expected to make decision on Haas: The FIA is due to make a decision on Friday regarding whether it will grant a 2015 Formula One entry to NASCAR Sprint Cup Series team owner Gene Haas -- or to the Romanian project fronted by Colin Kolles. The FIA on Dec. 12 announced a "call for expression of interest," and noted that it would make its decision on Feb. 28. However, when the decision will be announced to the public remains to be seen. Haas, who co-owns Stewart-Haas Racing with Tony Stewart, is tied to Ferrari, and if granted an entry would be able to take advantage of the fact that the FIA is relaxing the rules on technology sharing between teams next season. Haas would be able to buy almost everything he needs for an F1 program from Maranello. However, he has to own the intellectual property of his chassis and bodywork. The Romanian project is believed to involve state-funded backing and is in theory closer to being realized than its American rival. Lotus LMP1/LMP2 sports-car constructor Kolles, who ran the now-defunct HRT F1 team from his base near Munich, could provide existing race team and manufacturing facilities. The two candidates paid the FIA a $130,000 fee and went through a vetting process which culminated in a meeting with key FIA figures on Tuesday of this week.(Autoweek)(2-28-2014)
