Hamilton pleased after maiden MP4-23 run


10 Jan 2008

McLaren's Lewis Hamilton is feeling positive after completing his first laps in the team's 2008 challenger, the MP4-23, on Thursday. Hamilton was in action at Jerez alongside new team mate Heikki Kovalainen, as the British squad continued their three-day private test at the Spanish circuit.

"It was fantastic to get my hands on the MP4-23 this morning in Jerez," said the 23 year-old. "I saw the completed car for the first time on Monday at the team's launch in Stuttgart and I have been pretty impatient since then! My first run was at 09:10 and my first impressions are encouraging.

"I covered over 103 laps, which is 456kms, today. Considering this is only the second day the car has been on track, I am pretty happy with that. We have a lot of work to do, but now we have a real understanding of where we are starting from. I will be back in the MP4-23 with Heikki tomorrow and I am looking forward to continuing the programme and moving forward."

Kovalainen, who got his first taste of the new car on Wednesday, alongside tester Pedro de la Rosa, was equally pleased with his own progress.

"Today was my second day with the MP4-23 and I have now been able to complete over 447kms in total," said the Finn. "We are all still spending time learning about the car and starting to get used to it. That we were on track for 204 laps in total today is definitely helping us to learn and progress with the car.

"For me in particular the car is very different from last year, and I have been focusing on that side of things. Settling into the team has been very easy."

Hamilton clocked the day's best time, a 1m 19.132s, while Kovalainen's best lap was completed in 1m 19.462s. The duo will continue to test at the track on Friday.

Minor MTNL problems

Posted: 07 Oct 2013 02:50 AM PDT

Hello People. New guy here as indicated by post :tongue:
I would like help on certain issues i am currently facing.
 
Firstly, a bit of history. Subscribed to MTNL 4 years back. From then, i had a few problems. Internet would  get disconnected when i pick up my phone. Also ping was high(~60ms) as compared to others(~5ms) in my building. Does it have to do anything with wiring?
 
Some time later, i discovered a method by which i could reduce my ping. If i keep my phone engaged then my ping would drop to single digits.
 
Recently though, internet access was cut through out our entire society. It was gone for nearly about 4 weeks. It came back and then got cut the next day. I foolishly reset my Modem settings  without backing it up. And after that all sorts of problems started.

  • Random Disconnections. Depends on the mood of MTNL
  • Bad Ping Times. My previous method no longer worked

I have a Sterlite SAM300AX modem.
SNR margin : 14.5 - 24.5dB
Attenuation  :  45dB
 
Also about this time, my modem is partially broken i think. It makes weird noises when it starts up.

  DSL Firmware Version  	  :  	FwVer:3.9.9.5_TC3085 HwVer:T14.F7_3.0   		  Line State  	  :  	Showtime   		  Modulation  	  :  	G.DMT   		  Annex Mode  	  :  	ANNEX_A   				  		  		Downstream	Upstream	   		  SNR Margin  	  :  	24.5 	12.0	db  		  Line Attenuation  	  :  	40.0 	27.0 	db  		  Data Rate  	  :  	2048 	512 	kbps

My Phone is in another room directly connected to wall socket without splitter.
My Modem is connected to Splitter which in turn is connected with 1. And 1 is connected to 2. 2 is connected with the main wire. What are those things anyways?
 
Would really apreciate it if some stated a solution for these problems.
Thanks in advance for reading this post

Surface Pro has been an amazing device. It has been my daily machine for a LONG time. Surface Pro 2 is a very significant upgrade on top of that strength, with meaningful battery-life improvements so it lasts nearly a full workday, a dual-stage kickstand that works great on your lap, and even faster performance. With Power Cover – a new cover accessory that provides the same great typing experience as Type Cover along with a built-in extended battery that charges while you're working or while it's connected in your bag – Surface 2 lasts more than more than 10 hours. With the Docking Station for Surface Pro, Surface Pro 2 can be the first device that is a tablet, a laptop, AND a high-powered workstation.

Machete Kills

Posted: 07 Oct 2013 12:43 AM PDT

Machete Kills - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 

Machete Kills is an upcoming action exploitation film, which is currently to be directed by Robert Rodriguez. It is a sequel to both the 2010 film, Machete, the fake trailer in Grindhouse and a spin-off of Spy Kids. The script has been written by Rodriguez and the film will star Danny Trejo, Jessica Alba, Lindsay Lohan and Michelle Rodriguez all reprising their roles from the first film and newcomers to the series, Lady Gaga, Vanessa Hudgens, Mel Gibson, Demián Bichir, Alexa Vega, Zoe Saldana, Amber Heard and Charlie Sheen. The film will follow the titular ex-federale (Trejo) as he is recruited by the US government to stop an arms dealer (Gibson) from launching a deadly missile. Rodriguez has stated that he may have to hire another director if filming clashes with Sin City: A Dame to Kill For.

ACT broadband Bangalore worst service

Posted: 07 Oct 2013 12:04 AM PDT

I am a customer of ACT broadband for last six months, i opted for 15 Mbps 40 GB plan, from 1st of this month i started experiencing .38-.44 mbps speed, i lodged a complaint and the feedback i received are really funny 

 

1. I utilised 40 GB in four hours of previous day , i don't know whether that is possible by anyone to use- No auto updates are on and i requested them, which website or to which ip the system was connected and used this ? No reply from them 

 

2. Then the customer service executive told, i might have used a router without password, the funniest part is There is no router at my home and i connect the cable directly to one PC 

 

3. I also heard similar issue from my friends, ACT is not a reliable service provider, This is the problem with the unknown brands, you get a grievance redressal .

 

 

I DON'T SUGGEST "ACT BROADBAND" IN BANGALORE FOR ANY ONE LOOKING FOR A NEW BROADBAND CONNECTION

 

Thanks,

Ashok

Best broadband plan and how reliable ?

Posted: 06 Oct 2013 11:17 PM PDT

Guys,

I will be coming to India from Europe for 6 months and will be staying at Noida, I am looking for broadband connection at Noida and needless to say it should be reliable and better in terms of stable upload and download speed. I don't have much of need but I would like to download stuff and connect to European office through VPN etc. 

I did check online and Airtel stood out but how good it is? And they even claim for 16 MBPS speed with good cost, is it good buy or you can suggest me some alternative, is there no glass fiber connection possible.

 

Please help. 

Tikona Speed Downgrade FUP

Posted: 06 Oct 2013 10:56 PM PDT

Hi Team,

 

Tikona is becoming atrocious day by day. From 29th September my speed has gone down to 800kbps and below. I raised a ticket with technical support and today I called technical support again and was advised my plan was in secondary phase as I have used my FUP. My billing date is 15th of every month, which means from 15th Sep till 01st October when I checked I have only used 25gb where in my FUP is 50GB. Technical rep said I am on secondary plan and transferred my call to customer care.

 

Customer care rep said I have used 80gb I said what dates is she looking at then she said from 15th Aug! I said then she is looking at 2months data and still I should get 20gb for 2months 100gb. Then she checked again and said from 15th September till now I have only used 25gb and I am not in secondary phase so its technical issue and will transfer me over to technical support and tehcnical support back to customer care saying i am in secondary phase.

 

Can someone fix this issue. It's been nightmares since the time I have opted for Tikona Digital Networks. It seems like I have opted for Tikona Analog and not Digital networks!!!

Kovy stays top at Silverstone

Wednesday, 25 June 2008 17:26

Heikki Kovalainen completed an encouraging second day of testing for McLaren at Silverstone by remaining on top of the times at the end of Wednesday's session.

The Finn, who finished second and 0.3s behind Ferrari rival Felipe Massa on Tuesday, completed 72 laps in the MP4-23 with his best time from the morning session of 1m20.015s remaining unbeaten during the rest of the day.

It was also an impressive day for Toyota, whose strong form from Magny-Cours continues at Silverstone with Jarno Trulli setting the second fastest lap, almost 0.4s back on Kovalainen.

Kovalainen: We’ve made progress

Wednesday, 25 June 2008 19:09

Heikki Kovalainen believes McLaren has made a definite step forward in competitiveness at this week’s Silverstone test and is confident the Mercedes-powered team will be able to challenge Ferrari at the British Grand Prix.

The Finn topped the times on Wednesday by 0.4s and declared himself satisfied with the way the car handled on both days.

“I think we’ve made a small step forward,” he told reporters at Silverstone.

“Looking at the runs, I was consistently able to set very competitive times; it wasn’t just one run that we did just to get a time. That is quite encouraging.

Fernando Alonso News and Updates

Posted: 06 Oct 2013 09:35 PM PDT

Fernando Alonso topped the timesheets on his return to Renault today at Jerez lapping the Spanish circuit a tenth clear of countryman Pedro de la Rosa. It was an impressive return to the team for Alonso as he put in 70 laps with a best time of 1:19.503s.

It was a busy day for the McLaren Mercedes team with de la Rosa putting in 111 laps in his MP4-23 while Kovalainen sixth fastest, completed 130 laps in the new machine.

Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa were third and fifth fastest respectively for Ferrari with Nico Rosberg running well in his FW29 with the fourth fastest time.

Sebastian Vettel and Sebastien Bourdais proved closely matched for Toro Rosso Ferrari with the seventh and eighth fastest times while Mark Webber was ninth best in the Red Bull Renault.

Kazuke Nakajima rounded out the top ten in his Williams Toyota ahead of Timo Glock in the leading Toyota TF108 and Giancarlo Fisichella in the Force India Ferrari. Kamui Kobayashi brought up the bottom of the timesheets in the second Toyota while Super Aguri Honda did not run after problems encountered yesterday.
Renault continued its preparations for 2008 today with Fernando Alonso taking over driving responsibilities from Nelson Piquet.

It was an important day as it was Alonso's first appearance in Renault colours since being confirmed as a 2008 race driver in December.

Arriving at the Jerez circuit yesterday evening, the Spaniard spoke to the engineers to understand how the first day of the programme had gone, and to prepare for his two days work with the team.

His first day behind the wheel gave the Spaniard the opportunity to drive a car in accordance with the 2008 electronic regulations, and most significantly without traction control. It was also a good opportunity to reacclimatise to the team with which he has worked for six years in the past.

At the end of the session, having covered 70 laps, the overall result was an encouraging first day as Alonso topped the timesheet with a best lap of 1:19.503s.

Fernando Alonso
"The result of my first day in the car is encouraging. I could not wait to drive again, but at the same time I was a bit tentative. I quickly settled back in to the team and everything went well. We made good progress throughout the day, but there is a lot still to do. I had to adapt at first to the car and get used to driving the car without traction control, but I am convinced that that soon I will be used to this and will not remember what is was like to drive with traction control."
