Regarding the picture of young Surtees, I spent quite a while trying to verify that it was in fact a picture of him. It wasn't easy. Love the pic though.

Halfway point through the countdown fellow forumites.

Don't know bout you lot but i'm starting to get that ol' familiar itchin' in places I don't usually get it.

Then again, I did run out of that ointment the doc prescribed me a while ago so that might have something to do with it, but anyway, won't be long now till we're getting the green light for FP1 in Melbourne

Don't forget about pre season tests (1 & 2) in February before the season starts. The tests should be as exciting, if not more.

Yes, and they'll be broadcast for the first time!

Allegedly, at least. It's not like F1 TV has always delivered on its promises, after all... :o
