A few Silverstone pics 20/9/2006

I managed to grab a few pictures with my camera phone so apologises if they don't look the best.

maybe because they are testing Toyota engines ?

It probably happened seconds after that photo was taken.

The only car that I saw have any problems was a Renault. It was being loaded onto a truck and taken back to the pits as I arrived.

Renaul has had many problems with their engine lately and with electronics too .

it was about time.

shows what happens when they are under presure.

With only a short while before the engine freeze things dont look to good for them

It actually shows they are pushing their development... Better it goes bang during testing rather than during the race. Trial and error is the only way to find the limit and I'm sure Renault will have a reliable car for China just like however many races they've had one.

True, but generally by this time of the year, reliability would be rock solid, not going the other way.

It does point towards Renault having to push it's outer limits to stay on terms with Ferrari. Afterall, Renault suffered a engine faliure on Alonso's car during the race at Monza after turning up the revs.
