I like Minardirules thinking....... with the reported move of both Red Bull teams to Austria in 2 years.....just maybe GCM could buy back the Faenza factory and the locals on the STR staff would stay to work for the re-born Minardi team.........

I believe that this is the last year for the USGP. The only way that Tony George and IMS sign a new contract is if their is a huge turnout this year, and after last years Michelin debacle, that isn't going to happen. The Indy circuit is a joke but…
Bernie....... the "spiritial home" of the USGP is the Glen...... BUT...what you and I see as "entertainment value" is not what the big time sponsors and the "Paddock Club" types see as bang for their buck. That was true when the Glen lost the GP af…
To "old Yanks" such as myself.... this is the true McLaren colors.... McLaren ran their CanAm cars in this color and also their Indy cars as well.... during their "Yardley" days the color orange was part of their paint scheme..... I would like to …
as Bernie has already put it... those coal miners from West Virginia and here in Western PA are tough people. I've spent a bit of time in Morgantown and the hollows of Wst Virginia. It is a most dangerous livelihood. Gut wrenching to all from thi…
I remember when the German GP was moved from the 'Ring to Hockenheim after Lauda's horrific wreck. When the drivers first went to Hockenheim they all said it was a joke!!! ... and they were right........
They also agreed though that the "Ring was…

Too bad Paul didn't sell to Irvine and his Russian...... but it was his team and he needed the $$$ for his airline I guess. But Paul did …

depends on how close I am to the track and whether the car is coming towards me or I am panning the car as it sweeps by.
To me, the most important part of the equation is setting my F-stop...... If the car is coming towards me, I like to have…
Bernie..........
I'm shocked !!!!! Really Really Shocked !!!!!... and so disapointed in you !!!....how could you........ you, of all people.............visit a G*::@^# Limey
Hey Emmo
I took it off....... when I cooled down I realized that it was not becoming of moi.........
On a much happier note, I will be calling Ger next weekend to start to work on our mini-Minardifest '06..... We have plenty of time to order our …
"In light of these news, could everyone who said that they support the Minardi staff and thus would support STR please raise their hands? Still sticking to your argument? Are you going to keep on supporting the team, right until the last Minardi-era…

This news causes one to pause....and then start to wonder......
What does Flavio "really" know about Renaults commitment to F1 ???? He is Fred's manager....... yet he has Fred go to "Uncle Ron ????
Does this mean we will see a Shuey vs…

"good stuff Murph, if I were a Red Bull executive I'd invite you for coffee and scones at Indy"
Well, I will be at Indy...... looking forward to the Pit Walkabout on Thursday..... I will be wearing my MCSF tee shirt and will be looking to talk to …
"Isn't it possible to still support the (old) Faenza staff but NOT support STR at the same time?? "
Yes......Everyone is entitled to his own opinion........ you support/don't support who ya want................
Hey Ger
We both better get our fat asses in shape for climbing all around Spa or those headstones will be getting carved a heck of lot sooner than we hoped....... then again, Patty and Mary might look at this as a "positive" outcome of Minardifest …
Sorry, but your ORIGINAL point was that WE won't have to worry about Michelin & detunned engines.......
"great we don't really need to worry about that "
Your using "we" is wrong ....... You assume that everybody here shares your view........ …
Yes, it is a sad day. I had heard that this was happening a couple of weeks ago, but it was only confirmed this morning, a couple of hours before Emmo sent you that news. The others that I know with the team are still part of the team.
And yes, I…
"it will be a crappy outfit imposed on (some of) the good people that used to be part of a team i believed in"
I do recall that when Ger visited Faenza and talked to our good friend that he (Ger) was told that 95% of the staff at Faenza were thril…
