Red Bull reflect on another year of glory

Red Bull won both the drivers' and constructors' championships for the second successive year in 2011. Here, design chief Adrian Newey and team principal Christian Horner talk to me about their plans for 2012 and praise the dedication, hunger and desire of Sebastian Vettel, who became the youngest ever double world champion.

My Lucky day ?

 

A few weeks back I was browsing evilbay for the usual model AMT stuff etc and I came across a listing for some old Airfix style models for sale, collection only no postage, bit of a pain as I was about 350 miles from his address, however after a few emails exchanged I arranged to meet a friend of his a lot closer to me and the deal was done.

I was a very happy man when I opened the box of models, now I know they are all built up, but they have not been painted so are all restorable, all with original boxes and instructions, and the best thing......... i paid only £7 ( $11) for the whole lot bargain !!.

Superdetailing the '71 Porsche 917K "Fujimi 1/24"

This is the kit....

...and the aftermarket goodies.

After seeing the movie "Le Mans"numerous times and seeing the restauration of the 917 on the Gunnar YouTube films I got motivated to build a superdetailed Porsche 917K. A big help came from this book I'd bought.

In this book you can find drawings of the actual spaceframe. So I decided to replicate this frame in soldering brass rods together.

A little dry-fitting going on.

Now I first planned to build the inside the Fujimi body. Then I thought it was a pity to hide almost 2/3rd of the frame inside the body. So this is where it's all started again. The HRM engine is replaced with white metal one from Model Factory Hiro and made some changes in my build.

Why Michael Schumacher Could Win The 2011 World Championship

Michael Schumacher’s 2010 comeback was somewhat abortive.  The results, the driving standard and the overtakes were well below par for the former champion.  He even let his team mate beat him for the first time in his career.  So why can Schumacher, the fallen Ferrari hero, win the world championship for an 8th time? It’s [...]
