Grand Prix Rejects

While you can, and perhaps should, add all these different sorts of tricks to the tracks or rules to reduce reliability, it is a bit like the DRS - it leaves a sour taste to one's mouth. It's not natural. In a way, it can't be helped - it is a weakness inherent in all motor racing; tech marches on. ...

Bernie Ecclestone.

I already prematurely don't miss him from the moment he leaves the business to ascend to infernal planes.

Of course, it might be possible he will become some sort of an immortal robot and rule for ever.

That would be Keke Rosberg in 1982.

There's a "heartwarming" (YMMV) story on that, since my first word was "Keke". The name was up a lot that year in Finland. That's also probably my closest connection to F1. Either that or owning a bottle of Giancarlo Fisichella deodorant.

where do they race? isnt motorsport banned in switzerland? Presumably in the surrounding countries - remember how, for example, the "Swiss Grand Prix" was held at Dijon-Prenois in 1982? Incidentally, how did they settle on using Dijon-Prenois in the end? This is a good question. Presumabl...

the Dali lama and Charles Manson. Ah, the Dali Lama, painter of surrealist buddhism. More to the point, this is a good forum with good people.

Interestingly enough, I read on finnish tv that Bernie had actually said that "We do not need Monaco" and "Europeans must pay more to keep their races. This includes Monaco. They have been getting their race practically free and must pay more now, or we'll leave Monaco behind." D...

There's an easy solution: why didn't just let the safety car cross the line before the rest of the field? That way we wouldn't see such an ambiguous situation. Photo opportunities? Lame excuse. The reason the safety car "can't" lead the drivers to the finish is precisely the photo opportu...

BK are the best chain simply because they don't assume you want ketchup, gherkins, and other crap in your burger. You shouldn't put crap into your burger, it isn't healthy.

The way I see it, the more you hide, the more people want to know. If I ever became an F1 driver? I'd not hide anything, simply because eventually people wouldn't give a rats ass about anything I did. I would hide everything about me, only dropping mysterious hints about the skeletons in my fuel ta...

" People that want an extra show, maybe they should reconsider if they want to watch F1.”

This bit is extraordinarily ironic and thus funny, (re)considering all those people who are (re)considering that very fact.

Use the letter R. For some reason, people of Boston do not have this letter in their alphabet. More seriously, check and go see a Boston Bruins game. In the interest of off-topicness, due to this lack of R in the alphabet, is it "Boston Buins" or "Boston Bwuins" or something els...

I think the Korean track should he half in North, half in South Korea. The finish line should be the DMZ Now that's a great idea.
