just because he is Japanese and attend Suzuka and read Japanese articles doesn't mean he know more .. he know nothing just like all of us forumers.

I didn't see the incident, but I heard he sustained a puncture, did it play a part in the near miss?
I would not say a "simple accident", at that speed it could be a disgrace.Ground Effect wrote: ↑28 Apr 2018, 15:37I didn't see the incident, but I heard he sustained a puncture, did it play a part in the near miss?
gasly would have got in q2 , he said he was 7 tenth faster at the time he clashed with hartley. so yes q2 easy but they f it again. shame TR need to look at hartley or get pascal WHartley clearly had difficulty steering, would have been nice to see how he picked up the puncture. Shame as I think we could have scraped into Q2 today otherwise but things could have been a LOT worse.
i agree. he just reads article and post stuff , nothing more.just because he is Japanese and attend Suzuka and read Japanese articles doesn't mean he know more .. he know nothing just like all of us forumers.
True, but he's never claimed otherwise, and is in fact very clear about where the info he posts comes from. Since most of us don't read Japanese it's very useful. I would say, he could be a _little_ bit more tolerant of some of the other posts, even if sometimes they are a bit daft. So, thanks Muramasa, and keep positive, Honda's on an upswing !
Wow! Thank God!!! That was a potentially life threatening collision.etusch wrote: ↑28 Apr 2018, 16:48I start to suspect about hartley. 4th race 3 mistake and both toward to team mate.

"That happened really quickly and I should have been more aware to get out of the way so it's my fault," he said. "I clipped the wall, initially I didn't think I had a problem.
"I was still pushing then through the very fast left hander I realised I had some kind of big issue, I didn't know what it was so I slowed down immediately trying to understand, unaware that Pierre was really so close behind me and when I looked in my mirrors I tried to go the same way as him and I obviously owe him a big apology for getting in the way like that and almost causing a big accident. I am disappointed how that went down so not a good day."
Gasly:
"It was pretty scary," he said. "On the second run I was behind Brendon.
"The lap was coming nicely, I was seven-tenths faster than my fastest lap in the end and then I don't know what's happened to Brendon but he slowed down massively before Turn 15 and I came, it's a really fast corner, it's 320 km/h mainly and honestly I saw he was almost stopped so I tried to avoid him but I was sure I was going to crash.
"I could already see myself in the air but I don't know, I don't really know how I avoided it but it was a pretty scary moment."
The Toro Rosso drivers had been running in close proximity, a popular tactic in qualifying at Baku's tight street circuit in order to give the following car a tow down the long back straight. Gasly admits this ultimately did not help the situation.
"If he has a puncture it doesn't help him. Of course I am sure he didn't do it in purpose that's for sure.
"Just the thing is he was on the line, I don't know if he was going to go left or going to go right but I am sure it wasn't on purpose. Just need to have a bit more of a gap between both cars. Just a shame as we could have been in Q2 easily but in the end we will start really far tomorrow."
Time to replace race engineers ? Communication is obviously not working between driver & pit, critical team mistake 2nd race in a row
