The F3000 Thread

I don't know if anyone shares my interest, but I love watching clips from the old F3000 series and seeing the stars (and rejects) before they were famous. Also checking out races like the long gone Pau and Birmingham street circuits. I for one would love to see the Birmingham Superprix return to mot...

Re: The worst thing you can say on winning the F1 Championship

I'd like to thank the Tamburello corner and broken suspension. 1994 I'd like to thank Jochan Mass for not knowing how to get the f*ck out the way. 1982 If you thought I was an ass now, wait till next year! 2006 I definitely earned this championship on my own merits and not my cars. 1997 I'd like to ...

Jeff Gordon was able to step into a Williams on a track he never saw before and not having any open wheel experience... This wasn't the first time Jeff had driven an open wheel car. About a decade before, Jeff was given a test in a Formula Super Vee and within a handful of laps was equaling the qua...

Personally, I think it's a shame that Jeff Gordon wound up in NASCAR - IIRC he drove a Williams around Indy in 2003, and found himself quite comfortable with the car. If he had wound up in F1, I reckon he would've won at least one world championship, and probably more. I think the fact that he abso...
