I belive its similar to the reasons all the drivers used to congregate in Monaco, central location, good weather, got all the facilities you need, easy to get to all the european races etc:D
Well done Kimi, excellent way to show your ex-employers that you can win!!!
And if this appeal changes things F1 will loose what ever credibility it may have left
Pretty entertaining race all in all with some excellent driving from Nick, Nico and Kubica and even Hamilton coming through the field, both Ferraris were fairly faultless and all topped off by dear old uncle Ron trying to put a brave face on it!!!!:…
A great weekend let down by some pretty poor driving in Race 1, everything was going very well till 4pm on Saturday then it all went wrong before the first corner.
The team were great with some excellent access as always.

When we spoke to Xandi in Valencia he was very interested in what people thought about Champ/IRL etc

He's 22. But not ready for F1 jsut yet...
Agreed, another year of GP2 is what he needs but great experience and exposure for him especially with the positve comments
very disappointing weekend after the last couple of races, the team should have come away with something but looking forward to Valencia in a couple of weeks should be a great weekend, topped of by the first win???;)
What is going to happen with this team? The staff at Silverstone must just be at a loss as to whats going on and if there were accusations of Minardi bringing F1 into disripute through financial problems and lack of pace what does running at the bac…
Great result for the team and Roldan, and it was close to a win if his first pass had come off that bit better, but you can't have everything.
Got to keep it going now and get some mor eserious results before the end of the season!!

apparently, Ron has put a stop to him paying each of his mechanics £1000 per race to keep info secret from the other side of the garage.
You are kidding??? Nice little earner for the mchanics though:D
Ouch!! That really doesn't leave much doubt as to other members of the team knowing about the information or not....
Prehaps the "Red Car" was as good as the code got viges???
According to a Q & A on Autosport Ron reckons that they will pay $50 million after the TV money has been taken off which as Nuvolari said is about 10% of turnover. Depends if they appeal obviously and if they suffer from sponsors? Does this mean…
The TV money seems to vary according to reports autosport say they dont lose it others that the will, but just to stick the knife in if they do take part in the rest of the season and if either of the drivers win a race no one from McLaren can be on…
$100 million plus no constructors championship points loosing them another $70 million in TV money, thats got to hurt, how much more will they loose from sponsors?
I think in theory they can appeal as this is a new world council ruling but will the…
Time to start fund raising to pick up a bargain then??
I assume thats what you're suggesting RJ?? Simon will donate all proceeds from the book to give us a head start I'm sure
Fantastic results for the team, shame its so difficult to get to see it. More of the same this weekend and hopefully it will inspire the GP2 guys to similar heights!!!
Come on RJ anyone would think you'd got nothing better to do......;)
It doesñ´t have to be that way Ger, ¨07 should be a great year the team will have some great results in both GP2 and Euro3000, the people sponsoring the team seem to have plenty of cash so it will be a good year with maybe a championship in Euro3000…
What a great weekend!!! Thanks to Pablo for posting the photos and his hospitality in the city.
Full reports to follow but I´m pleased to say nothing has changed with the team, we have been treated like family sice we arrived with full access and d…
