does anyone watch Formula 1 but me? I don’t see any threads about it and I am really pissed Massa’s motor went out with 3 laps to go while he had been leading almost the entire race. it would have made a huge difference because Massa and Raikkonen would have taken the top 2 spots. That wanker Hamilton is still leading the points standing by 5 but Ferrari is still leading the Contructor’s points by 11.
I want Ferrari to kick Mclaren - Mercedes ass!!!

It’s as boring to watch as nascar, the cars however are tits. Sportscar racing is the best followed by touring car imo.

Alonso is def a great driver, I think Ferrari has the best team though because they still run the company with the philosophy that they sell cars so they can pay for the race team. I like that and I LOVE the cars they make.

:word: to BMW! And at some point in time I want to get to a race myself… probably not next year though ☹
Honestly, I’m a little sick of Ferrari. Yes, they’re a good team, I will not deny that fact. Ferrari seems to be a little above the rules at times where other teams get penalized for trivial.
Small example, Kimi was driving around in a previous race with his exhaust tip flapping around aimlessly (connected by a single wire). Luckily, when it finally fell off it no other cars were around. Had that been a car from another team, I’m pretty sure they would have been black flagged.
Also, the competition between teams seems to be better this year. Much happier seeing BMW get their first win, Heikki winning last week (granted it was a little luck) and Glock getting his first podium.
