Formula One Racing

[paino1]

my favorite driver is Lewis Hamilton:D
i guess as much as i hate it i think Vettel will win the championship again. his car is just too fast.
but i think the real battle will be for second with Hamilton, Alonso and webber.
and Im thinking Hamilton can get second if he keeps on driving like he did today.
what do you think will happen with the championship?

Yeh I watch it when I'm not busy. Have watched it for a while now. First race I remember watching was in 1993, although I didnt really know much about it, only that it looked "cool".

This year could go down to the wire again. Ferrari and Mclaren have finally sorted themselves out and are just as quick as Red Bull in the race now, if not quicker (at least in the hands of Alonso and Hamilton). Was a great race yesterday and thankfully only a few days to the next.

That's a wild video! I got serious about watching F1 fifteen years ago when I was living in New Orleans and was a regular at an English Pub frequented by a lot of British expats. They would often open at about 5:00 a.m. to show F1 broadcasts on Speed from Europe. Sometimes the place just never closed from the night before. I always favored Mansell during that era! What a terrific driver and team!

I'm hoping Lewis Hamilton can hang in this year and see more time at the podium. Of course, as an American I'm hoping the U.S. can muster a F1 team soon. There are some talented America drivers in NASCAR and the Indy Race League that could hang in F1 but it would take commitment and a lot of money and time to become competitive.

Anyone going to the 2012 US Grand Prix in Austin?

Who in the UK is pissed about todays coverage announcement? I have Sky, so I wont really miss out on coverage, but the BBC is the spirtual home of F1. Bernie Eccelstone has some nerve dealing with the Murdoch's, particurly after the hacking scandal with the New Of The World.

Heartless, souless, mindless, senseless bastards.

Jody,
Thanks for posting those vintage tapes of Mansell. They were very exciting!
