What a bag of $hit£

Racing should be about going as fast as you can, for as long as you can.


Not, "slow down and save fuel"... or, "don't get too close, save your tyres".



Paul G

Edit to add.... "Save the engine"

Hi

Anyone know what the actual recording was that they were playing yesterday during the driver introductions? Was a version of an old track from Black Sabbath. Please help ........... I need this track ........... and probably help

Regards Mick

i came across some information about
"the chain" but it wasn't the one i needed.

I found the song by staying watching the red button session and then they played the video again.. if there is interrest i can upload it to you tube (the bbc will delete it soon anyway)

Journey - Don't Stop Believing

Brought back from the dead thanks to the TV series GLEE


Edit: Just noticed you posted a link to the tune on youtube which shows the artist and name of the tune anyway in your second post?

Yep Journey "dont stop believing"

Unfortunatly i have about 10 (yes 10) of their albums on vinyl in the loft.

Two 'Sprint' races that's what you want - the first replacing at least one of the tortuously boring qualifying sessions but both with the same split of points and a mandatory tire change in each race. No need to conserve fuel or tyres as much and twice the excitement especially in the first race as it would determine the grid for the second race...... been done in Bike racing and club motor sport for years and it works


CRAIGR - 14/3/10 at 04:49 PM

Sounds like it was as good as ever. Glad i missed it and with any luck i'll miss the rest of the season.


Madinventions - 14/3/10 at 05:07 PM

I've been looking forward to the start of the new season - new teams and reg changes... but it was so incredibly boring that I fell asleep. Think I may just catch the highlights for the rest of this season.

Looking forward to BTCC and 750mc where we can see some real racing.

When they put that music on the end , I thought was a plea from Bernie for us all not to switch off ,cos what ever changes they make it's a complete co*k up.

Those cars look too big/long , the front tyres look too narrow, it's going to be an economy run for tyres and fuel until the last few laps.

Waited 5 months for that, looked more like a demonstration run, none of the cars/drivers looked as if they where trying!

I wouldn't like the job of compiling a 'highlights' programme from that


I DID enjoy some nice bits of 'Black Sabbath' on the Saturday progs though.

Thank god I'm no the only one that thought that watching was a complete boring waste of time


franky - 14/3/10 at 07:56 PM

roll on motoGP!


hicost blade - 14/3/10 at 08:44 PM

I'm more interested in the engineering side of F1.......or Newys lack of understanding when it comes to cooling, it destroyed engines last year and the exhaust this weekend.

He shouldn't have used pull rod rear suspension last year either as he snookered himself when the 'double defuser' was declared legal....it cost Seb the championship last year (thankfully)


cjtheman - 15/3/10 at 10:28 PM

been waiting for this to come round this year
but what a waste of time
