| hahahah! That's awesome. It looks like the chassis from an old Cooper Monaco with Lotus 15 wheels. |

you all already know about the breakaway, i say it would be great, but can the teams really put up a new series in 6 months??
we will have to wait and see, and i think that the tteams have just made this move to warn max & bernie that they are serious for the last time :rolleyes:
but if thery really do break away, just think of the great tracks the teams can bring back suzuka, canada, even silverstone :D
and i don't think that much people will still watch F1 after that.
also, the rumor is that BBC will sue bernie if the most attractive teams leave, and break the contract. |

I think it would be great if the FOTA teams would really start their own series. Maybe then Max and Bernie would realise that they can't dictate the whole F1 circus by themselves. And I don't think it's gonna be a huge problem for the teams etc. to put together a new series. I mean, there are many tracks they can use across the globe, they can basically race in every continent if they choose so, and so on.
So yeah, I'm looking forward to hearing more from this but whether it's going to really happen or not, don't know...
PS. I have nothing against F1 as a whole, just Max and Bernie acting as dictators. :whip: |

So as I mentioned the other week, a couple friends of mine and I went to the 24 Hours of LeMans last weekend. It was a great race with Peugeot finally winning it with their 908's. We drove from Amsterdam, left at 21h00 Friday with a suitcase of beer. Arrived at the track around 06h30 Saturday morning just in time to catch the warmup and Legends race (Stirling Moss was driving one of the legends cars but I didn't get a good pic of that car :()
There's a few pictures:
Priceless 1955 Jaguar D-Type
1959 Lotus 15 that ran in the Legends race
1964 Ferrari 206 Dino that ran in the Legends race
Peugeot 908 HDI FAP
pit straight at night
Front straight into Turn 1 at dawn
Audi R15 TDI - this car finished 3rd overall
Lola Aston Martin - these looked great in the classic Gulf colours

Agreed. Good race all around, especially with the threat of rain to shake things up even though that didn't happen.
I felt bad for Sutil. He was looking at a great finish before his little tangle with Kimi. Simple racing incident, but if only Sutil had just allowed Kimi to have that corner he could have easily passed him when he came into the pits later. The one stop strategy would have been brilliant and a great result for Force India.
Barrichello running his mouth off at the end was surprising, but I couldn't really blame him for being frustrated. He just vented it too soon and the wrong way. |

What did Barrichello say? I was watching on nazi tv... FOX, so they have crappy coverage and did not show the interview. |

He was all angry about the pitstop cock-up with the fuel rig, but didn't know it was the rig that failed. he thought that the team changed strategies on him again and screwed up his race, lik ein Barcelona.
He was really pissed, which is odd for him. He's usually pretty cool about things. |
