FINNAALLYY!! since the Bruins are outa the playoffs, Patriots lost to Denver..and the Red Sox were..well ya know..finally F1 season is here!! Anywho what are everyones predictions for this years champion. Alot of news going on too, Alonso going to McLaren next near, MAYBE Schumachers last season and hopefully Kimi taking his place (that be awesome!). What are everyones thoughts for the season? The season is pretty much where it was left off last year, Renault still seem to have the better car, McLaren and Honda are up there as well however McLaren always having mechanical and electrical problems with their car, they still seem competitive..but the good news for me is that Ferrari claim they are on top as well, im excited to see how this weekend unfolds because the first 5 races pretty much tell you what team/driver is gonna be sucessfull..I think Schumacher will win  Go Ferrari!!

Wow...I used to follow F1 years ago. My favorite team was Mercedes/McLaren. Who's going to cover it in the US? I heard Speed Channel dropped it (you know, as more time goes by, Speed will end up as NASCAR Channel. In the mid-90s they had AVIATION programming, amazingly. But it was dropped hot). WHo will be covering it?
Is my car for sale? PM me if you're in South FL.

F1 is the best. Love the Tech, it's so cutting edge.I think Alonso will be the man to beat. The Renault looks great. Ferrari looked good in qualifing as well. I'm hoping BMW will do well. Villeneuve needs a good season. The Suaber car with BMW power will do better than most people think. Williams, Midland, and the rest will have tough seasons. Toyota and Honda will do well. Button might challange for the title. Those two teams have endless money.

according to my race listing site of choice speed channel should have formula racing from bahrain from 6am-8:30am est tomorrow with qualifying being covered earlier today. as for the aviation coverage on speed, i have said before that i enjoy all forms of motorsports racing but even i couldn't get into that. i remeber seeing that and thinking why?

Correction, he tied at 65 Pole Positions. But with the way Schumi & Massa looked today, it is only a matter of time until he breaks the record.
I bet Kimi will come on strong tomorrow, I am guessing top 5 at least. I almost want to say podium finish, but am hesitant.

Alot of people feel the same way about driving in circles. But thats neither here nor there. And i gonna be the first to raise the conspiracy flag, with the new qualifing to help suit bridgstone and ferrari.

good call, I was not surprised at all. He's a talented driver but with a un-reliable car, he should replace schumacher next year 
anywho Alonso came victorious in the end, I wasnt complaining at all, Ferrari looked strong and thats all that matters. It was a shame however Massa spun out, he was very quick throughout the weekend and seeing both ferrari's on the podium woulda been extra special

Kimi has shown again that he has the fastest car and he is the quickest driver. He came from dead last and with a one pit stop, finshed 3rd. Imagine if he had started 10th or better. And the fact that mr Montoya, wasnt on the pace that kimi was with the same exact car just diff. fuel load, just shows how much faster Kimi is. And what about Nico Rosberg, that kid was amazingly fast and composed. That pass on David c. was amazing. Also how great is it that we finaly have an American in an f1 car racing against the big dogs. I cant wait till he scores some points. Remeber Minardi scored 7 points last year.

<yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....aaaaaa...........a...aa.aaa........aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawnnnn>
Oh sorry... I only fell asleep about 3 times during the race this time. I even recorded it and got about 10 hours sleep to prepare for it. NExt time I'll try 13 hours sleep.
You guys should try World Superbike or MotoGP. I swear you won't nod off and... Oh... Get this... They like... Pass people. REGULARLY!
No I promise it's the truth!
