condolences to him too

Its so sad 
In more positive news, 5 michelin teams are having talks with bridgestone! Red Bull Racing will probably switch, as they are become another ferrari next season, toyota (strong Japanese links), williams, BAR, and renault are holding talks.
If they do change, it will be interesting. Sauber are currently the only team with a deal for next season. But next season qualifying will be better for bridgestone than michelin cause its more than one lap.

Oh, I found some tips to stay awake during the Hungarian GP, cause lets face it, we all know its as boring as bat shit.
1. Go to a chemist and buy a pack of ProPlus – don’t waste your money on that Red Bul***t
2. Set your alarm for half an hour into the race and set the snooze to ten minute intervals.
3. Train your dog to bark when James Allen says “certainly is”, that way he’ll wake you up every three minutes.
4. Watch something else and keep switching back to the grand prix every five minutes. If your eyes start to feel heavy, leave bigger time intervals between visits to the race.
5. Bet large sums of money on the outcome. That’ll keep your interest levels up high.
6. Video it and then watch it on Fast Forward
7. Get into training yourself by watching Bid Up TV for two hours. After that, even TV interference seems strangely interesting.
Enjoy the Hungarian GP. Forza consciousness!

Bullshit its great. Even Monaco is better than Hungary. The only reason why you like it, is cause you said, its classed as a home race for the finns? Why is it their home race? Hungary and Finland are no where near each other
Hermann Tilke is basically in bed with Bernie. He has designed too many tracks - from memory Bahrain, Malaysia and he was going to construct the track in Mexico as well. But thats been scrapped. Turkey will be interesting, I can't wait to see the track. Bahrain and China were exciting last year, however, I do miss those European circuits which are slowly fading out.
Bahrain is a cross between of Malaysia and Australia. I sorta like it, theres just one corner that pisses me off, and I can't get around it when I play it on the ps2. You have to brake really hard. Your right about Malaysia, its more fun than Bahrain. Long straights, tight twisty section, somewhat of a difficult set up. Plus tyre wear and the possibly of it always starting to rain in the middle of the race. 2002, I think, even Jos Verstappen (I think thats how you spell his last name) was leading the race!
I haven't seen much of the turkish track. But DC did a drive across that bridge in Turkey which contects Europe with Asia.
Haven't actually seen a race in Fuji, however I have a playstation game that goes there. Kinda interesting circuit.

Oh wow! Thanks Argonaut!! Turkey does look interesting. Shame theres a 3 week break between Hungary and Turkey. Looks sorta difficult to set up for, free flowing corners, tight corners, does look interesting. Wonder if it will be possible for people to overtake?
What ad? Stop confusing me Grizzy boy!!!
Oh, are ferrari finally getting back to their usual pace?
Baz seconded quickest and Michael 5th quickest during first practice. Knowing them, they are just lifting my hopes far too high so that they will come crashing down on sunday night

Its an all too familiar script this year isn't it? Schumi talking up his chances before each race and then letting us down.Cape said:Oh, are ferrari finally getting back to their usual pace?

I think the ad they are referring to is that stupid Finnish sauce ad.
How come I haven't seen this finnish sauce ad???
Prac 2: Michael had a technical problem and baz crashed his ferrari down the straight it was too good to be true.
But this made me laugh:

There are also serious rumours going around about Kimi leaving Mclaren at the end of next year!
