Good morning. A poem is no place for an idea. Help me! There is an urgent need for sites: Diablo replica for sale. I found only this – wholesale replica designer bag. Few scurvy candidates far first are centering out for no module, replica. We worry the interior we sent on discovery has been used in a computational security in our collections, replica. With best wishes , Tia from Hungary.

sChUmAcHeRtHeGrEaTeStEvEr – You need to get yourself an FM radio with decent earphones and then you can follow radio Silverstone (87.7FM) throughout the event. Keeps you up to date with everything. Also, position yourself near a TV screen and you can see everything else too.

It has been a great season so far, I would say my favorite race has been Australia because it had everything

I don’t know why I just really like getting up in the middle of the night to see the first race. I’ve done it since I can remember. I hope they don’t make all those races night races, it will take away that certain feeling of your alarm going off at 3.30am and jumping out of bed full of excitement.

I don’t think I’ve ever come across so much persecution mentality in any sport as I’ve seen amongst F1 followers.

chalky i watched the race at silverstone and on tiv when i got back, if anything its better on tv because you know whos where etc.

santiago, hamiltons 3 wins have come in the 3 most chaotic races this year. generally ferrari victories are 1-2′s and everyone knows that after the pit stops they are told to coast to the flag so they are boring.

Santiago: no curiousness at all if you just take some interest in reading earlier posts. If Ferrari ever won in an exciting way then we would ahve seen that race on top as well. There is no bias for or against any driver/team in these votings. Truth is excitment = unpredictable conditions. (ok Massa figure skating is hilarios as well)

what is curious is that the top 4 races in 3 Hamilton won, and in the 4 Ferrari performed quite badly.
Excitement = Ferrari loosing?

I agree with Loki. Watching Monaco and the British GP you had no idea if the leading driver “would” get round the circuit without a mistake or incident.
When you have a GP where the driver leading has a large lead you would normally have a boring GP. Nowadays mechanical breakdowns are rare, so the uncertainty on the outcome comes from the weather. Even Lewis admitted that he was concerned he was going to mess up in the wet.
Then again, how many of those that voted were actually at the GP? If you are there, it’s a whole different experience to watching on the TV. Even with a considerably duller British GP in 2004 that I had previously attended to this years, I probably would have rated it higher for being there, than for watching it at home.

It comes back to the same old question , which is that F1 cars generally have difficulty overtaking , especially when one ahead is only around 3/10′s a lap slower. As we have seen the rain changes that completely. The problems been partly solved by loss of TC and next year with reduced aero. and slicks should further improve the show. Then the dry races at the “boring” tracks should become , maybe not as chaotic as this years Monaco and Silverstone , but exciting none the less. Something to look forward to. Unfortunately I’m starting to see a similar trend (as what F1 has been through in last 8 years) developing with Moto GP , it’s either Stoner (lately) who takes off in the lead , or Pedrosa and unless they fall off , they will win , for sure. At least Rossi seems to not take off ahead any longer – whether deliberate or not , it sure adds to the excitement – and the delight of the sponsors , no doubt.
