I, for one, cannot wait to see how Mr Loowitzi does down under.

Oh man, I could punch Beattie every time he says Loowitzi. I don’t even care about Liuzzi but I just want to smash Beattie’s pudgy face every time. It’s like he does it deliberately, I mean the guys been racing for a few years now so it’s not like Beattie hasn’t been subjected to the right pronunciation time and time and time again…

LEE-OOT-SEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

That’s a good signing.

It’s a pity they didn’t get some others who hang around the F1 paddock like Coulthard, Chandhok, Brundle, Alesi, Wurz, Gene, Kristensen etc.

I suppose as long as Liuzzi and Di Grassi enjoy it, they may give some good word of mouth feedback for next year.
