any F1 fans here?

i love the cars and the race venues.

i also do kinda get interested in the politics of the sport too.

I love how the sport was back in the 50-90s (back when I wasn't even born). But I still follow it...

I just recently got into it. how was it back in the 50-90s?

i was so happy when Rubens won last week! he seems so genuine.

Well, back in the days, it was more competitive and they were less preoccupied with their hairstyles. That meant, more overtakings and more close racing, and every great driver had a nemesis (like Senna-Prost, Stewart-Rindt). Take seasons 2001-2006, Michael Schumacher was completely unchallenged, and the sport was predictable and boring. Luckily, the last couple of years have been better, like in 2007 when anyone of three drivers could have won the championship in the last race.

Also, they banned driver aids and reintroduced slick tires this season, witch made everything better.

i love the commentating. i always wonder if they are all drunk. i also like how they do give some good info sometimes on the technical aspects of the cars. SPEED does a great job broadcasting.

Very exciting season, this year with the best cars changing as often as the weather, Go Hamilton and Button!

[pushokalex1]

I loved SPA last weekend! Force India just out of the blue kicking some butt. Can't wait to see if Fizzy is going to be in Ferrari in 2 weeks.

I love how some cars are great for some tracks and not for others.

Boy this thread needs an update. Briatore gone - crashgate gives another bloody nose to F1. I hope the final races of the season are clean and Brawn can continue it's fight for the two titles. My support is still behind the little team that almost wasn't.

As for Spa, it is the elixir of F1, the crown jewel of the season. I also can't wait for next year and the return of Montreal!

[SoOW2LeA]

I just watch F1 for the races really. Wouldn't call myself a massive fan in terms of keeping track of what happens behind the scenes.

My country is hosting it this sunday. Its a night race on a busy public road in the city. All the roads surrounding it have been closed since yesterday.

[ENCOSEARRALIA]

Hamilton took it but congratulations to Glock and Alonso for stellar performances. Button and Brawn are well placed for a double championship!

buttons doing his best to throw it away

[pushokalex1]

i would be happy if rubens wins the championship!

i was so happy for alonso and i hate that he got caught up in the renault issues.

[ENCOSEARRALIA]

buttons doing his best to throw it away

What are you talking about? Brawn was barely comppetitive at this track, and Jenson and Rubhens did the best they could. He's throwing nothing away and is still on track to win the driver's championship - as is Brawn for the constructor's.

[valiumcheapll]

Button should still win the championship even if it means limping over the line, 5th yesterday actually increased the gap between first and second, he should be ok.

[ENCOSEARRALIA]

Hey Pete! The silly season is in full form and here is how it is looking: Kimi back to McLaren to make way for Alonso at Ferrari. Rosberg to Brawn with Barrichello going over to Williams. Koveilinen probably out on his arse, as will be Piquet, the little weasel.Nakijima is loosing Toyota support so he will be gone too.He was bloody useless anyways. If Ferrari improves for next year it will be hard to beat them with Alonso at the wheel. Pound for pound he is the best driver on the grid.
