Darren Heath ‏@F1Photographer16s Major cooling probs @ #F1 #RedBull Cutting holes in bodywork – & covering with sponsor decals apparently. Major work to be done... As for the Renault problems, F1 Technical ‏@f1technical15s Remi Taffin just said the installation of the batteries makes it take time to repair the troublesome parts F1 Technical ‏@f1technical56s They do have some replacement parts here, but not enough so items will be flown over by tomorrow F1 Technical ‏@f1technical1m It's a hardware only 'sequential issue', originating from all components of the car interacting with each other F1 Technical ‏@f1technical16s Renault also said they did find more problems, but those do not prevent further running - will be fixed later on So Red Bull will be fixed overnight, the others will have to wait?
Yeah, I'm taking that as Red Bull will get preferential treatment and be able to run in the morning, others will have to wait for parts to arrive and be fitted.
Well Nissan are RBR partners/sponsors and that Red Bull funded this engine to be made might be why they're getting first dibs. + being the 4 times WCC's
Maybe Redbull just have problems just not at the extent as other Renault teams... Two good calls though, Williams deciding to be powered by Germany's finest and Lotus backing out of the test.
Red bull are the works Renault team so they should and will get first dibs.. Oh and are you lurkers still here. Go hard or go home
Maybe they knew the units were beset with problems so thought it best to stay in the factory to develop it further rather than waste a trip to Spain not to learn much.
Lol f1today.net are saying the Renault engine doesn't actually fit in the Caterham http://www.f1today.net/en/news/renault-suffer-engine-fitting-issues?
