The man with the chequered flag on the race track, doing that little jump.
Fuel stops.
That Fleetwood Mac song.

But given the speed of an F1 car in reverse, would not all the tracks be a little boring? Or given how badly an F1 car handles in reverse would be fun anyway? I like your alternative version of the universe. The crowd would be facing the wrong way and the race would start with a chequered flag. The...

Topless pit girls, or did I just imagine that?

There is very little sentiment from the Scots. Even if they are voting no, the sports stars are only bothered about funding. There seems to be little pride in wearing a GB shirt. If they vote yes and become nuclear free and join NATO, we would be obliged to help them?........that sucks May I add tha...

It might bring Audi and BMW into F1.

I would produce some real head scratchers and near impossible races, but gets the imagination going.
The cars coming up the hill at Interlagos as the final bend would look cool.

Exactly.

runningman67

Monaco would be mental.

Monza would be a decent track.

Spa would be awesome.

The pit lane exits would be a bit dodgy.

Because Diesel is not a sexy word. They need to call it something sexy like Astrolenetorquepropellent.

Love it hate the new car spec, the engineers are unbelievable.
They got a lot of new stuff thrown at them and hey presto 362 kph.

I'm thinking more the tracks in the middle east and maybe Russia by the looks of it. A bit over done. Variety is key, throughout the season and I find myself looking forward to Monza, simple and beautiful, Spa, a beautiful monster and Brazil for the best start and finish straight. As has been said, ...

They have enough money to make every citizen a millionaire. The population accepts the reserved nature of the government, unfortunately the UK only looks as far forward as the next election.

Monza, for me, proves that less is more. I think that a lot of the newer tracks are over designed.

As a spectator, I suspect that there is rarely a moments lull, the cars are spread around the entire track at most times and the tree lined track is beautiful.

I thought he looked too reserved yesterday. I feel that his fight has waned a little.

I voted for let's see what happens.........Massa seems to have got his mojo back, so maybe Jenson will.

Kvyat: "I've got no brakes. Is it last lap?"
Matassa: "No, two laps to go.

Credit to him and to the designers of the track, could have been truly awful.

I still have this when watching Silverstone (still!). After years and years of watching the previous layout and from playing it on 90s video games I only have the old layout ingrained in my memory. And it's only like 3 or 4 extra corners. Really weird I've been to Silverstone and it looks so differ...

Never mind the drivers remembering the track, what about the viewer. Some tracks I get lost watching. Where am I looking at on the circuit? Thats why I like Monza, I know where I am when I am watching it at all times. A lot of the newer venues keep me guessing as a lot of the bends and straights loo...

The Mindfulness Challenge. Go to the supermarket and spend £10 on non perishable food goods, take it to the local food bank and thank them for providing such a wonderful and unfortunately necessary service for free. Then go home and drop a couple of rocks of ice over your chosen tipple, you've earne...

I get the impression that he is mindful, has a positive mind set and so doesn't let the politics, rivalry and media stuff, cloud his head. I feel that some drivers, have a mindset of non acceptance and let the egoic mind rule there head, thus simply not enjoying the privileged position of being an F...

Nominating somebody can turn to bullying.

It should be a persons choice to donate or take part in an event.

As for celebrities are concerned, it has become a disease to publicise at any cost, even in the event of a death.

If the F1 officially withdraw then I can't watch it. I will watch it as there is nothing that I can do to help the situation. If I don't watch it, the only one effected is me. It won't stop war and genicide, discrimination and the blind Ego of politicians. I reserve the right to watch the sport I lo...

I really want Ricciardo to win at Monza. I think he will. Chuck Norris "superpowers" are fictional, no clue about Jesus (his superpowers were fictional too but he probably existed) What I meant is that I think these jokes stopped being funny years ago That's fine, just don't tell Chuck Norris :uhoh:...

Imagine leading a GP.

Brilliant, fresh, exciting cheerful driver.

I'm surprised Putin wasn't the first one round, riding topless on the back of a T Rex holding an AK47.

Boring looking track though. We need more elevated and cambered s bends, generally imho.

We teach children not to lie and blame others. These idiot bullies who strut their stuff in their uniforms, flags and bullets are worse than naughty children. They are a disgrace to humanity.

A race I am really looking forward to.

I would favour Williams if the drivers get the luck and drive to their potential.
