  • I've had some hard things to say about Schumacher but I respect his driving, his behaviour after the engine failure today and comments after the race. Whatever happens at Interlagos, I'd like to see MS end on a note that shows some humility and phi…

  • It was a sellout before the Jos the mercenary priced himself out, or whatever brought his acreer to an end. It looked like most dutch race enthusiasts still went.
  • Yep Bleekamolen really impressed. Bye Jos!
  • Yep, after losing 4 laps in the garage, he went out again and continued moving up to a few places and also posting the fastest lap of the main race. Unfortnately that was a fraction slower than the Sprint fastest lap so he didn't get the fast point…
  • The telecast was delayed in Malaysia, but I followed it on A1GP.com with SMS to a mate at Zandvoort, and between us we filled in the gaps. There wasn't much information up on the dunes, but he could see the order and the weather. I had the lap and…
  • Dumps? Well I'm in Mumbai, right now and the last week has been a week of extremes. My daily drive from the hotel is past slums and heaps of dirt with poor people sifting through the dirt for bits of usable material. Then we had an evening with t…
  • Originally posted by MCSF So where are all the Schumi detractors now. I am no major fan but that was a great drive with an assist by the tire performance and mother nature. .... OK! OK! Nice drive by Michael. ...but I had to smile whe…

  • Originally posted by james Yes, but look at the quality of the driver line up - its incredibly low. There are only a few drivers there who I have even heard of let alone rate. I think he must have gotten scared by the thought of being beaten by a no…
  • Steve was absolutley fearless with our most dangerous species. Crawling in the mud among bid crocs, jumping on their backs, wrestling with pythons, etc. etc. And it as all genuine. Usually the only safeguards he had was extra observers watching …
  • What about the sauce and beetroot? The problems I see are : 1. While you're opening your mouth for the first bite, you run the risk of flies getting in, 2. Once you've got your mouth around it, you couldn't see where the sauce is going or how ma…
  • He made an impression on the barrier and some other cars. ....and it was Dutch weather! No Laguna Seca this next A1GP season? What's the story? Spin
  • I like it! You have quite a view. Spin
  • Yeah, that's what I meant! (Clown really thought they were hugs and kisses?, clown!, really?) Emmett, RU OK? or too may mac moments.
  • Quig would understand that when I said STFU, that was an invitation to respond. Yeah, we have been jousting for a few years now, as with Petrol. Funny, but interesting, how a clash of views, if argued out, can lead to respect and finally recogniti…
  • EQ, no, you definately don't do the same thing in Windows for 20 years and expect a different result. You do different things everytime they upgrade/update and know damn well you'll get the same result. Insanity? Quite probable! STFU (that I woul…
  • Unfortunately, if you're with Windows, you have to go with XP. I kept one machine running with Windows 9X as long as possible because I had some very useful old engineering programs including my own RiskPro which just would not run on XP. I now ha…
  • I can't see why he would quit! Unless the new TOIT Manager and Race Directors are mates of Kimi. :) Spin
  • Didn't think you had a house, 'nomad! Obviously MCSF's fighting might hasn't been tested for a while. Be careful of the old superiority assumption Quig, you could get hit with a mac attack, a hack attack (electrons are faster than bullets) or just…
  • One would hope that the American population generally was learning from the experiences of the last few years. In my limited view the rest of the world has been viewing the foreign affairs approach of the US with a lot of understanding. Acceptance…
  • Reportedly, Fidel is recoverng well. He will be preparing for another 10 hour speech, to prove his stamina. GWB can't even express a single idea coherently, but he's considered fit for office, physically only I suppose. Sorry Quig, just had to me…
  • The old fear and guilt thing doesn't really work with me, but for those who really believe in rewards once your body and senses are defunct, I'd guess there would be a lot more surprised people in heaven than in hell. I'd actually be less surprised…
  • Thanks for the explananations, Petrol. One thing that puzzles me is how the labs differentiate between natural testosterone and synthetic T. Aren't they both C19 H28 O2 in similar ring formations? Is it the other compounds which could be associa…
  • Schuey needs a good publicity agent! I'm still waiting on my invitation. I understand that it is the last thing that Jean, Ross and Michael plan to do. :) Viges, you're proving again the power of the pen! Spin
  • 42 Deg C is a cool day in Abu Dhabi. I remember one day at a construction site at the Ruwais Refinery when I walked out on the desert, in about 50 degree heat and the soles of my boots just peeled off and stuck to the ground. I danced all the way …
  • Oz should be in the top ten! Spin
  • I'm not making a hero out of Zidane and don't really prefer either France or Italy as teams. Zidane has blown up and head butted before according to reports. It could be reasonable expected that given provocation he could do it again. Most of us …
  • I'd like to know how premeditated the provocative insult was! Did Italy have this in their game plan with Zidane carefully targetted, knowing exactly how he would respond, when the pressure was greatest, when the likelihood of the penalty or red c…
  • One doesn't have to search! But I could be biased, as I've lost my tolerance for his non-sporting tactics. Spin

  • No-one mentioned Schuey's trick. That slow approach to the starting grid at the end of the warmup lap was a bit much, leaving the first 2 rows, waiting wondering what was going on . Michael must have figured that leaving the Renault's engines heat…

  • Advanced drivers just take the racing line! :)) But here in Malaysia, where I wouldn't call most drivers "advanced" they just take the defensive line. Make sure no-one gets past! :) I liked Neils comment. Drive in the shade. Spin
