I say... Alonso first, Vettel crashed and breaks both his legs, Hamilton retires from the sport.
I'm drunk though.

 

If you can, also watch the 'Celebrity Race" in Melbourne with the all new Mazda 6's racing...I think there are about 12 or so running.

 

when is this!

 

Mazda6 Celebrity Challenge | 2013 Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix

 

Hey, on what channel is this going to be on now, since it's not on speed channel any more? I can't remember what the new channel is!

 

NBC Sports Network has the contract for Formula One in the U.S. This celebrity race could end up else where.

Thanks, I can't wait for the start of the season, last year was great!!!;-)

 

As it turns out.. it was McLaren's choice not to retain hammy... Alfy's gonna love it: We could have kept Hamilton, says Dennis - GPUpdate.net

 

Of course that is one side of a story.

Although I root for Lewis success all the time, he must be a handful to deal with (All the hip-hop nonsense and distractions although he seemed very focused through most of last year).

I'm hoping Mercedes can do something strong. We'll see as it almost impossible to overcome the Newey hand.

Paul.

 

It will be interesting to see how strong of a driver Rosburg is compared to Hamilton. We have see that he was at least the equal of (a beyond prime) Schumacher. And, how far behind is Mercedes from RBR, now that they have a top tier driver.

 

Yeah I think next year will answer a lot of questions about Ham!!! I tell you though, the guy I feel for is Webber....they are already talking about how he will ALWAYS be the #2 to Vettle...not a really nice way to start a season I really hope Mark kicks his *** next year!!!!

 

RedBull might miss the first tests: 'RB9 has been compromised' - Newey - GPUpdate.net

Meanwhile... a crappy video for a crappy series:

My verdict? **** environmentalists, **** greenhouse gasses, **** this planet. V12 all the way!

 

[sarcasm] Oh common, it's a (electric) rotary engine. Don't you want to hear the ROAR whir of those motors as they "race" by? [/sarcasm] After all half of it is the sound that draws the fans to the race. What is the purpose of the air intakes on the sidepods anyway?

 

Lol.
I like how an engine sounds mostly because i can relate that sound to emotions. Fear, blissfulness, whatever.
The sound of a race engine fills you, envelopes you.
We were made to drive gasoline or fuel engines, a couple of hipsters won't stop me. When there will be no petrol left in this world i'll switch to vodka, rum and and any other form of alcohol known to man but my engines will still roar, not buzz.

 

I imagine you saying that, with emotion, in english with an italian accent gesturing with your hands.

 

Like this?

lol!

 

Rosberg will be put in his place by the end of the season. Crying in the fetal position. The only time Rosberg will be ahead of Hamilton is because of penalties or breakdowns. Schumacher had so much bad luck this year, I don't give all the credit to Rosberg there. You can only do so much with a crap car. The testing ban is what ruined Schumacher's comeback. He's a worker. He refines his cars by endlessly pounding round a track and adjusting then pounding round some more. I have a feeling they might pull a "Brawn GP" this season and Hamilton knows more than we do.

As for Ron Dennis.... He's just trying to save face. No way in hell would they say to Hamilton to leave in favor of Perez. McLaren is going to have a crap season with Button unless they make an unbeatable car.

 

When are these forums going to get 'LIKE' buttons .

There is definitely a connection between man and the internal combustion engine.

Paul.

 

LOL!!! Kind of like how guys would rather cook over an open flame vs. using a stove

 

What does an hydrogen engine sound like?? Unless they develop cars that can go a 1000 miles on a charge that'll be the future. Hybrids work because they can go as far as gas powered cars. Fully electric is a step back. 150 miles than a 10 hour charge?? Hydrogen refills just like gas. And the by product is water coming out the tailpipe.

 

A hydrogen engine would sound just like a gasoline engine. The problem is it has to be in a highly pressurized container. A shunt could cause big boom. Also, hydrogen has less potential energy than gasoline. It's worse than alcohol.

 

Just feed the drivers burritos and let the cars run on methane. Self fuelled, 0 risk of explosion...
The only downside might be that some drivers could enjoy the feeling of the feeding tubes while accelerating.

 

^You made me fall off my desk chair

Maybe Newey can direct some of the gas around the chassis increasing this way drag force

 

I'm not sure... it's a matter if speed, density etc.
All I know is that i'd become world champion...
