Luke Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 After HK overtook Alonso he said he accidently pushed the pitlane speed limiter while tearing off a visor. Not so sure, looks like he was punching the air in delight to me. Take a look, http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=uzU7JZcWklg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazza_g Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 those cockpits are really cramped so quite easy to knock the pit limiter switch I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 He said he was trying to take a tear off off his visor after getting oil on it. Either way I don't think he is going to do it again in a hurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted March 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Ferrari's pitlane limiter wont work unless the car is going under a set (low) speed. I think Mclaren will be changing theirs too now. On and keep your hands on the wheel until the end of the race Mr K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
