Aussie GP

[Damn True]

Who wins?

Hamilton is the favorite, but the Czech kid in the BMW-Sauber is fast.

Hami, pending he doesnt blow it

[Damn True]

Weber, Button, Masa, Nakajima, Fissicella (sp?) and one of the Williams cars buggerd on the start.

[OHCbird]

Hami, Kova, or Kimi- I'm rooting for Kimi (he's making one hell of a charge up the grid at this point).

[Damn True]

Pardon me. Kubica is Polish, not Czech.


Bad day for Torro Rosa & Ferrari.


Man, F1 sounds really good in the greatroom of the new house. Glad my wife is in Australia on business. She'd never put up with the sound of race engines at this volume in the house.

Glad my wife is in Australia on business.

And how are you NOT with her in Aust.? It'd be a perfect oppurtunity to go to the ACTUAL race, rather than watch it..

[Damn True]

Because she was in in China for the last week, and she is in Sydney, not Melbourne.

[Damn True]

..besides, I'm sitting in the living room with the TV on, volume all the way up, laptop open, [which drives her nuts, "how can you be on the net and watching TV at the same time?"] hanging out with the dog, drinking beer and watching the whole race (instead of just the bits in front of my seat) in comfort.

Yeah... I have the same problem. And yeah... the speakers make the 65" look smaller.

[Damn True]

With the shot of Kimi looping it. Nice touch.


My screen isn't that big (yet) but the sound is epic.

I just wish David Hobbs would pipe down.

[chicane67]

And Ferrari is ........... ..... ............. out of the race.

[Damn True]

No points for any F-car in the race. First time ever at an Aussie GP.


LH = Tiger Woods

[OHCbird]

Damn... Other than Hami, that was an ugly race. M thinks Kimi is missing his traction control!

Chicane- thanks for snapping at that moment Damn you!

Guys, I'm not a big F1 fan but I admire it more than any other motorsport. I had a chance to get up to Suzuka, Japan and see some bike races when I was in Okinawa.
I am in Bahrain right now for the next several months. The next race is here in April 4,5,6. I am really excited to go. NASQUEER never entertained me and I try to soak in as much CART and Indy back home.
I know enough about F-1 to sound stupid but I would say Kimi RaeKoninian?SP? LOL is my favorite.
The Bahrain people are nuts for it over here. You can rent cars and go around the track on most weekends and it's only about 100 Dinar, 1 Bahrainie Dinar = 2.7 US (F-n US dollar!).
It is going to be about 60 US to go to the race through the Moral, Welfare and Rec. Dept. on base. Really excited to get into this.
Does Schumacher still race Ferrari?

[chicane67]

Me thinks Kimi is missing his traction control!!

I think this is going to show the masses who the real drivers are... and who are the complacent.



Oh... go-fish. Michael Schumacher retired season before last. Ralphie is the only Schumacher left.

Just ribbin' 'ya a bit. After being to a few races myself, I certainly can appreciate a nice widescreen, a sweet audio system, and a comfy couch.
