Here is a photobucket album from one of the guys in our F1 meetup group. All the pics are from Barcelona I think.

I forgot to say that in the month I was gone I made quite a bit of progress regarding the website I have been working on titled: Grease and Gears or eventually greaseandgears.com
My graphic designer should have three different approaches/layouts that are possible by tomorrow for me to check out.

In the meantime she has made me these booklets/"Fan Bibles" to sell. They are a really neat piece of memorabilia to have and I'm sure they will be fun to fill out and look back on through the years to come. They are about $18USD + shipping which shouldn't be much at all. I know that seems expensive, but that was the best price I could get since I didn't do a mass order.

So let me know if you would like to buy some? For full size pictures just use the link inside the quote window below:



They are printed out on A5 (210 x 148 mm or 8.3 x 5.8 in) high-quality card stock paper and have a saddle stitch down the spine.

Let me know if anyone is interested!
Definitely! I'll grab one to bring to Melbourne :D

Also, I like this picture:
 
Testing, testing 1, 2, 3.

Ohhhhhh the agony! Silenced for 30 days! I don't know where to begin :)

Glad to be back!

welcome back buddy :) ..



ok. it's official. Kimi has changed.. he's much more friendlier to the media than before


Who will speak more, the Stig or Kimi?

Valid question lol.. I'll be eagerly waiting for this episode to be uploaded somewhere by someone..

To reiterate, I'd definitely be interested! Looks awesome.


BTW I didn't see this posted here, so Acrid... this is for you!
Kobayashi & Perez can't wait to race in Melbourne
Contains a cute little video of Perez and SuperKK with the new Sauber.

Not with Valencia. I honestly couldn't give a crap about that.

Then you should love this one...

I do. I still don't know why I've all of a sudden become such a fan, especially since I barely followed him during the season. I guess he just always seemed like he deserved another crack. He never really did too badly in the Renault.

I wonder how Clarkson will approach the interview. If he's not careful, it'll end up as a series of questions with one word answers, then a look at Kimi's lap and then finish.

Will he do an interview?

Slash is also a SIARPC on the same episode according to the BBC.
 
I am going to rage if Lotus has a race winning car.

Would be cool to see Kimi win again, but Kubica man.

Would be a dream comeback for the Iceman.. but there's no way that it will be from crap car to a winning car over the winter. the rules changes are not small but not as big as 2009's to cause a huge shuffle in the pecking order.

All I want for it is to be faster than Ferrari and I'll be satisfied

The guy won races in a shit Ferrari, I'm curious.
 
Did anyone watch the megafactories episode on Williams F1? Was better than I thought it would be... I've never actually seen an F1 car built up from the safety cell before.

I was just looking at the F1 dates for this year and I have the opportunity to go to see either the KL or the Shanghai Grand Prix. Any recommendations on which might be better?

Evil but slightly funny.

Also, stocked up on some reading material during those red flagged sessions...

Nice.

A question for you Olore. Is that Titanic book any good? I've been doing a lot of reading into the Titanic lately with the anniversary coming up and a Titanic museum opening in my parents' hometown of Southampton to mark the anniversary. So I'm really interested in adding it to my reading list.

The Chinese GP often produces good races, whereas the Malaysian GP is often quite processional. But the atmosphere at the Chinese GP is supposeed to be quite dismal with low attendance figures. The Malaysians on the other hand have really taken to F1 and the atmosphere at the Malaysian GP is often great. It depends on what you're looking for in your Grand Prix experience.
