Hello F1Fanatics!

I just thought I’d give this group a bump as I just found a local karting school. I have just registered at http://www.goodwoodkartways.com/index.htm which is near Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It […]

Some video from the event. The picture quality is bad but much better than the sound:

Oh dear, Alguersuari’s ploughed into some other guy. That’s what happens if you listen to James Allen all year instead of racing anything.

This is great, it’s like having a Grand Prix in the middle of […]

@ArmchairExpert Thanks for that – I’d seen it on the live timing which must not have taken the fact he cut the track into account.

Keith, you wrote on Twitter that Alonso has set the fastest lap. It’s not true, Bianchi did that – http://www.desafiodasestrelas.com.br/resultados/124.pdf . Alonso’s 52.814 was achieved when he cut the track in […]

Bianchi, in a Force-India-lookalike kart, won the first race (he had obtained pole position earlier), while Alonso didn’t finish and Massa finished 10th. Ex-F1 drivers Di Grassi and Liuzzi were second and third, […]

That’s a great list this year! I love that Massa hosts this every year. Still it would be nice to see Barrichello, Kanaan, Castroneves, etc. joining in on the fun this year.

Kamui Kobayashi, Bruno Senna, Jaime Alguersuari, Lucas di Grassi, Nelson Piquet Jnr, Luciano Burti, Antonio Pizzonia, Sebastien Buemi, Enrique Bernoldi and Ricardo Zonta have joined the list but Maldonado seems to […]

Interesting that Alonso is going for the first time, seems to support the theory that Alonso and Massa are getting on a bit better in recent times.
