Tommig1995 0 Posted June 29, 2014 That was AWESOME! Apparently we were on TV queueing for autographs (or some of us were, we got separated). So much happened, and the noise is probably better than F1! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevolvingPrawn 1 Posted June 29, 2014 Sweet man! Chris was on TV too! Have a look in the stuff thread :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tommig1995 0 Posted June 30, 2014 I'll just post this for now, because I've gotta go to work in a few mins, but here's a nice photograph for you all. If you need a justification to get out to Snetterton/wherever, this may help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f1since08 60 Posted June 30, 2014 That was great! @Tommig1995 I don't suppose you were the photographer who asked to move in front of me at turn 1 were you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I don't think I asked anyone to move, we were just off the chicane for R1, in the infield for 2 and at Sunny for 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

f1since08 60 Posted June 30, 2014 Did anyone actually find out what caused the lights to stick on for the first race? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know, but if was funny watching it on the TV :p All the cars revving their engines for 20+ seconds and the lights are just stuck on red haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevolvingPrawn 1 Posted July 1, 2014 I'm kind of annoyed that nobody else picked up on Turkington jumping the start of race 2. He was already moving by the time the lights went out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just had a look at it again, and maybe he didn't get penalised because he didn't cross the grid line before the lights turned off, like Vettel in Suzuka 2010.

I didn't see it but most of them are 'creeping' before the lights go out anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f1since08 60 Posted July 1, 2014 @RevolvingPrawn You do realise the TV lights graphic is delayed anyway, right?@PeteTheDuckI didn't find the start funny, I found it disappointing :phttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jEQCD-OxtA&feature=youtu.be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevolvingPrawn 1 Posted July 1, 2014 Delayed or not Chris, Turkington shot off the line before any of the other cars were even moving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well I haven't seen the start properly yet, but is that not something to do with rear wheel drive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RWD cars do get a better getaway but Dave means Turkington started while the others didn't move at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
