OK fiends here's some more. 1.What was unusual about the podium at the 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix? 2.Which was the first Formula One race to start behind a pace car? 3.What was special about the 1975 British Grand Prix that has not occurred since? 4.In 2010,Williams were accused of cheating and a riv...

We always seem to get one race a year thats the oddball one-when strange things happen,there's pile-ups galore and weird and wonderful things turn up-like Spa 98 or Europe 99. Of course back in the late 80s and early 90s most races were like that-watching them now on video even the 'rather processio...

I was lucky enough to start watching F1 in 1989. As a little nipper,every race full of a bumper crop of cars,loads of unpredictability,retirements galore,controversy,characters,it was perfect...
Had I starting watching in 02 or 04,I might have given up straight away

Sensible decision. Racing incident. They made the point on BBC that even though Jenson swung to the left,that's the natural line and showed that Schumi had followed exactly that line just before,so he hadn't followed an unusual path.

I'm sure I saw a horse swim past in the river...

Ah no it was just a seahorse

I'd prefer it to be like it was before where if it was a small collision,we got on with it and decided it was A or B's fault or racing incident. Only if it was something major was it investigated-not two cars diving for a corner at the same time and bashing wings.

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

Karthikeyan and Glock under investigation-let's just penalize the entire field and call it quits

I WANT ANOTHER LAP! There was a train of backmarkers they were having to come up to which could have done anything- Schumi was about to pass Webber...Massa just held off Kobayashi on the line...

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

Petrov and Kobayashi investigated.... we should just do the 2 laps in 2 minutes...

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

That was scary... looked like he ran to get the debris and slipped, got up,saw the car coming towards him and tried to run for it and slipped again...

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

That's another SC and I have a full house!

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

Heidfeld crashes into Kobayashi...front wing broke and he's off... Schumi 2s faster than Vettel this lap

Webber and Barrichello on slicks...Schumacher passed Massa and Kobayashi to 2nd

Safety car start-let's go racing and worry about the shower when it arrives.If we all sit waiting for it and it turns out to be a few drips,we'll all look daft...

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

14 minutes to restart... let's roll!

Or Clay Regazzoni-I've just read his biography including the tales of when he went missing for a practice session and was tracked down to the bedroom of the hotel they were staying in bed with the hotel owner and her daughter...
....and that was not the first occasion he'd indulged in such a hobby

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

Full points to Liuzzi for his funky footwear

Blonde in Ferrari hat and rain poncho is cute!

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

Yep,keep waiting we've got a few hours till sunset

Australia 91=-if they'd waited an hour or two they'd have been able to run. Malaysia had to be abandoned because it was too late at night.Once the rain finishes,we should we able to go PDQ

All these technological advances and electronic gadgetry,state=of-the-art computers and we still are relying on men with brushes...

Dear TV company,when I said I wouldn't mind seeing some soaking wet birds dripping everywhere

this is not what I wanted

MyHamsterRacedAnOnyx

There's waves of water going up as the course cars drive around...
No improvement expected for about 1/4 hour.

It's a redwinged blackbird

Kudos to our wildlife spotters

There's a fascinating article in the Sun about Terry Fullerton-who competed against Senna in about 1980/1 and was rated by Senna as one of the best drivers he'd ever competed against.He never went further than about Formula 2 because his brother had been killed racing years before.Never seen him in ...
