Scuderia Alitalia welcomes F1RWRS Commission decision Scuderia Alitalia team principal Alasdair Lindsay has shown a rare sign of support for the governing body of the F1RWRS commission. It comes after vehement protests from both his own team and Team Phoenix against MRT's attempts to obtain documents regarding Castrol Jones Racing's technical and financial details.
"I must thank the F1RWRS commission for seeing sense on this issue," said Lindsay. "MRT have been waltzing around the place like they think they are bigger than the sport. Perhaps this will change their tune for once. The details of CJR should remain solely in the hands of CJR. I would not expect such a sensible decision from the likes of the FIA though, it's just as well we are not under their juristiction."
Lindsay strongly denies rumours he is attempting to get cosy with the series' governing body in an attempt to persuade them to give an exception to the four driver rule.

My proposal to form a brand-new team to replace the failure that Team Phoenix was being and shortcut my way to success was rejected straight away No matter, I'm sure I'll turn things around and it'll be more exciting this way.

The main determining factor for success in the F1RWRS is engine power. You just need to be able to afford a half-decent engine and you'll be fine. Hell, Foxdale, HRT, Jones and Sunshine could be in the exact position as MRT if they'd gotten to the Zakspeed engine first. It doesn't matter how good or bad the chassis is (Well, it does matter to an extent with the power limit that each chassis can handle which is why the Dagnall cars are slower than the MRTs), success or failure basically depends on how much power you can extract out of that engine

MRT won't be running the P-87 next year if it's approved. BMW already have a P-90 in the works because they can

I thought about having a car that would both handle well and have a decent amount of power, since I assumed no one was going to have enough credits to make a perfect car and Aristotle came down to me for advising. Instead, I scored a paltry 2 points and failed to even prequalify after mid-season in all races. I'm still trying to recover...
Little side story now: With O'Lauchlan now back in the F1RWRS, the exploits of both him and Reyna-Sanchez in the IndyCar series have come to light. O'Lauchlan is currently 6th in the IndyCar points standings with one second and a host of top 10 finishes while Reyna-Sanchez is third having (somewhat fluked) his way into the Indianapolis 500 victory ahead of Will Power and James Hinchcliffe) and is behind Hinchcliffe and Tony Kanaan (in what may prove to be his final season) in the championship

That´s not entirely accurate. A bad chassis can make you lose up to 40bhp of your allocated engine power, it also can make you gain a little bit so it´s an important decision. It also affects your drivers consistency quite a bit. What´s wrong with the people is the approach regarding "having a slow car but good at slow tracks"; for that what you actually have to do is to have a good chassis and then invest money in your drivers, instead of burning 1000 credits in a chassis-engine combination.

40bhp isn't that much when you're at least 120bhp up on most of the field anyway

Which isn´t to happen anymore As I published before, there´ll be the tendency that the new engines coming will be at least 680 bhp and no engine will be able to be developed past 810 bhp, so that we shift in a two/three season period the whole field into more levelled power outputs. Prices will be revised as well to ensure teams can move up and then we´ll be able to lower random grip ratings to a 1000-1600 starting range.

But what I tried to do was to have a car that would be performing adequately at all kinds of circuits, with a decent turn of reliability In the end I got neither.
With Dean O'Lauchlan, one of Daniel Melrose's many friends in the world of motorsport, back in the F1RWRS with HRT, rumours are floating around that Melrose may be looking at a move to the team in 2015 after allegations that the Australian pulled some strings to the the IndyCar driver and former dirt racing champion to get him the second HRT seat. While Melrose has publicly stated on many occasions that his priority is to stay in the Jones Racing Team, rumour has it that he's looking at alternative options including HRT and the proposed Simpson Motorsport outfit. Neither Melrose, Jones or HRT Boss Mark Skaife were available for comment.

Well people have said that the guy has almost seemed "lost" since leaving MRT or possibly ever since he left his "personal playground" (i.e. Formula One) and some are theorising that teaming up with best friend Davies might just be the key to getting the absolute devastating best out of Melrose (Right now, he's probably at about the same level as he was in 2008 and yet he's still one of the best drivers out there)

I for one would love to know when and where those gigs are (Although being on the other side of the world means I can't attend them myself)

Haha, all of them in Spain. For the moment is three in Madrid, then Burgos, Segovia and Vigo, probably followed by another one or two in Galicia and a tour around northern Spain around Eastern.

I can't go on the 9th because I have an exam on the 10th and will need revising, but chances are I can go on the 11th. Where's the place you're going to play that night?

I've never been there, but I've quick-checked in Google Maps and it's not actually very far from where I am (close to Ciudad Universitaria). At which time are you playing? And is there anything else I need to know? (i.e. having to buy a ticket to enter, booking, etc.)
