YO!

Used to follow Sauber-BMW until BMW pulled. Now I follow Lotus cause Kimi is back and RBR because Vettel is BEAST. Also, I have always loved Mclaren. Dont have Speed on TV so I have to keep track on the interwebs.

I loved how the entire crowd cheered when Vettel's car failed a couple races ago.

It didn't hurt that was a Spanish crowd.

I'm so stoked that Spa and Monza are almost here. My two favorite tracks, and to have them back-to-back just seems like all is right in the F1 world. I still think it's great that with all the money and the supposedly brilliant Tilke, they still can't make new tracks as exciting as two of the oldest.

I as well am excited for Spa.

Well, I got to be in Austin for the USGP. That track is phenomenal. I think Tilke finally got one right. Turn 1 is amazing. The pictures from the TV don't do the elevation change justice. I'm really surprised they got through there cleanly. There were a few small things, but nothing beyond what was expected for a brand new track. I can't wait to go back next year!

Also, how nuts was that Brazilian GP?! Is it March yet?

Great circuit. In Spain we have good circuits as Montmelo an Valencia but I don't like them. I prefer Motorland in Alcañiz. Moto gp knows this circuit, but no money to get a fix Gp there.

Congrats Austin!!!

I think MotoGP is going to be fun to watch at Austin as well. I heard the plan was to remove most of the grand stands and have the track a lot more open for the MotoGP and V8 Supercars races.

You think Vale's gonna be able to get back up to speed with Yamaha? It was fun watching the Spanish battle for the title this year, though I wish Pedrosa would have taken it.

I love the races, but my tv service doesn't offer them.
That was an awesome pic of an accelerated drift.
Man that stuff gets me pumped!!!



Note: when "drifting" make sure you know what you are doing.
Bike and rider are moving at a very high rate of speed .... to the right. (Turn one. Road Atlanta)

It might get better next year. NBC has bought the rights for the next five years. Supposedly they will be played live on either NBC or NBC's Universal Sports channel. All live. Also, there are rumors of streaming coverage as well. I just hope NBC don't try to dumb it down too much. I hope they realize that most people watching are real fans and don't need explanations for every little thing.

Any time I've seen racing on TV in the states, it is watered down. Almost as if the network has a few extra min. and need to fill in the slot.
I hope they do it right.
They will have me glued to the edge if my seat, if they do.
