Man am i glad F1 is back!!! I've felt like a part of me has now been jump started back to life!! I love Mclaren Mercedes, and Alonso, but i also love Kimi so i'm kinda torn. anyway, im jsut wondering if anyone else in interested in F1 racing. I'm also very interested in Lewis Hamilton's performance and future in teh sport


(i want to be a F1 driver!)

 

Love F1..Went to Canada race last year and will be going this year. These karts sounds so different and amazing in person. Definately a great experience. I wanna talk more about this weekends race, but affraid to ruining it for someone else. Maybe you could title it with a spoiler title.

 

F1 Racing is awesome! Watched the Australian Grand Prix last night, great to see Alonso and Hamilton bringing McMerc to the podium! I hope Alonso can work some magic this season so that the car doesn't break down!!!

 

I KNOW!!!!! Stupid Mercedes reliablilty!! I REALLY want Mclaren Mercedes to win the constuctors champ but i'm torn between Kimi and Alonso for drivers.

 

I was hoping that Schumacher would have won his last grand prix and win the title, but Alonso just wouldn't have it. I like Kimi, but I still want McMerc to bring home both titles, so it looks like I am cheering for Alonso now

 

Toy Yoda,

Please title this in the future * SPOILER *. This is so it doesn't
ruin it for those who have not watched the race.

 

I love F1 but what's up with Super Aguri? They look alot stronger than Honda right now.

 

I'm a huge F1 fan.

Kimi is my favorite driver but I always considered Ferrari "the dark side" so have had to come to terms with that. My husband teases me that I got a red car because I like Ferrari! If I didn't hate putting stickers on my car, I think it would be funny to put some of the Shell Motorsports Ferrari F1 stickers on my Fit. Some day I might put one on a magnet.

I like Rubens, but have never really liked Butthead, so am halfhearted about the Honda F1 Team. I do quite the like the surprising success of Super Aguri Honda and find myself rooting for them. Super Happy Fun Chicken, Go! Go! And I do like Taku as a driver.

(Do any of you hang out on the Speed F1 forum?)

And yeah I think it's cool that I have a car with paddle shifters, even if it doesn't quite rev to 19K a minute.

 

i don't know much about F1 except that it's cool and there's a guy named Michael Schumacher

 

I like open wheel racing SO MUCH BETTER than NASCRAP. Born in Indiana, I was raised around the Indy 500,and a local dirt track for sprint cars, but I really like the road courses of F1.True racing IMHO...

 

Did you guys hear about what happened to the McLaren Mercedes team?

 

The equivalent of US $100 million is a huge wad of wonga!

I wonder if we will ever know the complete truth about Stepney/Coughlangate. I'm thinking a decade or more from now, if ever.

I am not surprised by the penalty slapped on McLaren, but remain a bit puzzled as to why there were no penalties for Pete Rose and Fred. And why wasn't the Ferrari info shared with Hamilton?

I tend to think that the team penalty, versus any driver (point) penalties has a lot to do with not wanting to ruin Lewis Hamilton's season. He's certainly raised the profile of F1 in the US. My local Barnes & Noble usually stocks F1 Racing mag in the back. A recent issue with Hamilton on the cover was stocked front and center.

What a year for the team - as if the friction between Alonso and Hamilton wasn't enough of a distraction.

The soap opera (occasionally interrupted by motor races) that is F1 has reached new heights, or should that be plumbed new depths?

 

He is the guy from those Magnaflow exhuast adds right?

 

I thought he left, but there is a ryan shumaucher from germany?

 

That is Michale's little bro, Ralph. He is also nowhere near as good as his sibiling.

I did not like Michael's tactics, but nobody could deny his ability to take slower car to the winer circle. I am very sad that Airton Senna died and two could not go head to head. Senna was also very contraversial, but even better at making slow cars winning machines.
Alonso reminds me to much of Prost. Great driver, but always complaining of something. Dude you are paid millions to take calculated risks. Shut up and drive!

I am tired of "senior primadonas"! It is time for youngsters to show the old dogs how to drive. The computer game generation: Lewis, Kubica, Niko, Piquet Jr,...... Keep them coming! We will see if Bruno Senna has Airtons genes!
Massa can't handle the pressure! Kimi has too much bad luck overshadowing his driving ability. Second Mika Hakkinen!

As far as ferarrigate, everybody spies and cheats in F1. It is what you get caught with red handed. You speed in your Fit's, right? Sometimes you get caught and ticketed, right?
Ferarri flexible floor was not stolen from McLaren! Ferarri did it on its own. That is where the current problem Ron Denis has.

Alonso is a jerk for blackmailing McLaren with the info. He is dead for F1 as of next year unless Briatore takes him back. No team will take driver with history of blackmail and pay him millions. Ron Denis will wait for the last moment before next season starts to drop him like a rock. He asked Lewis who would he like for a teamate if he had a choice earlier this year. He named Kubica. They are carting friend! Without Alonso on budget they can buy Kubica from BMW. Money talks BS walks! Gotta love F1 politics!
