Ovals are dizzyingthey would be if the cars were actualy fast. NASCAR isn't racing, its essentialy a bunch of guys trying to cut eachother in line. graemlins/nonono.gif The shity IRL used to be kinda fast, but a couple dozen spines later, they've slowed the cars down a bit.

A1 Grand Prix http://www.a1gp.com/home.html [qb]Wow, a winter series would be quite cool. The formula looks fairly economical, preformance probably comperable to CART. It REALY looks close to what BE is trying to make F1 out to be...hmmmm. Perhaps a test bed for the new formula? They should get a Long Beach or Miami race.

El Karacho1647545492 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 I'm kinda annoyed that everyone has it out for Schumi. The guy came back from a 13 spot deficit to grab 2nd place even from cricism that "he wasn't able to handle the car." The man is the winningest F1 driver ever. The early debut of the F2005 I'm sure helped, but he was setting, breaking, and resetting fastest lap all day yesterday. Ferrari has finally gotten the shit kicked out of them by the F1 board of directors and for Michael to overcome the myriad of restrictions designed to knock Ferrari, and specifically him, off the pace is a respectable accomplishment. I used to be a BMW fan but all the shit between BMW and Williams has made me lose faith in that team. I'm not trying to take away from Alonso's win, both he and Renault deserve the #1 spot for what they bring to the track each weekend, I just think that the whole anti-Michael sentiment is ignorant of such a talented person.

mrs.cos Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 I have been bored with Michael since i first started watching it. My husband is a big michael fan. So its always fun in our house on race day. I am a Ralf fan and He just sucks so.. i dont ever plan to see him on the pole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 First off, the FIA loves Ferrari, dont forget it. They kissed their ass for a long time...why? Last years record breaking season, they wanted some history borken. These days they have to engineer the series to make Ferrari less of a wolf among lambs. They want to hit more markets, they need a competitive series. Lets hope Mosely doesn't fuck it all up. Btw, Shumi is one of the best drivers the world has ever seen, true story. He has a seperate medula specificaly for racing housed in his chin. graemlins/thumb.gif He is only boring to watch when he's in front....which has been most of the time. The only way Ralf is going to see a pole is if they errect one some whewre on the course. tongue.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rally Red Evo Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 I didn't get to watch it, sounded like a good race. I have always been a Michael fan from his days back at Benneton. I appreciate what he has accomplished and longevity is very hard to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FIA has gone to the ends of the earth to level the playing field for the rest of the teams in Formula One, yet Schumey still managed to nab a podium finish at San Marino. Its just awesome to watch him achieve against all odds. Alonzo, Raikonen and Truli are really good drivers but you can't deny that Schumacher is just down right awesome. He's like the Micheal Jordan of Racing as far as I am concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's like the Micheal Jordan of Racing as far as I am concerned.Welcome to the boards. I think that the true spirit of racing is to TRY and gain the unfair advantage over the rest of your racers. I remember a Le Mans series scandal where a BMW team had installed fuel 'holding cells' along the fuel lines...basically they were small .5 liter spheres that would hold extra fuel, but were not technically fuel tanks because of the way they were assembled. If someone is that freakin smart that they can outwit the competition, let them do it until everyone else catches on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen to David Hobbs Stories abouthte reserve fuel cells found in his ol F1 cars, basicaly a couple liters of gas in a tank righ next to the driver seat. tongue.gif Originally posted by Black Z06: Alonzo, Raikonen and Truli are really good drivers but you can't deny that Schumacher is just down right awesome.
