I'm interested in managing a team, preferably Penske. BTW, why does Schmidt–Hamilton Motorsports only have one car while they had two on the 2013 season?

W12, since you were on the waiting list, and Williams was the first opening, you can take control of Williams, which by the way, you need to send your bids via PM.

Bids sent.

I'll continue with EuroBrun.

Welcome to the forum! I also have a soft spot for Simtek, as I loved a picture of their car that was in a book I got for my 4th birthday

Brilliant. I could do with you to back up all my opinions and claims as everyone else here thinks I'm an idiot.

Sorry, I didn't notice your post

USA will, again, only use softs, pitting on lap 33

HM to Ricky.

my guess is if(or when) Cup racing returns to dirt, they'll probably run eldora and also default to Charlotte's dirt track for one big weekend or something. Heck, since it's a non-championship race, they should run the Allstar Race on the Dirt!....with cup cars! not like the Prelude to the Dream wh...

Will we be losing a current race? And of course, the big question, will there be any Azerbaijan drivers and/or ...

Bettenhausen will continue for the rest of the season, as he hasn't got any USAC races clashing with the A1GP events.

I don't really want Sauber to score any points this season, simply so that Marussia get to keep that 9th place in the WCC. Sauber have been so awful this season that they don't deserve to beat Marussia in the standings. I reckon this opinion might go down like a lead balloon, but hey ho... Not unpo...

Are you a Timelord?

I actually noticed it, but I thought years sounded better than months

And where is the stats of F1, GP2, and GP3 drivers converted to most active members in forum?

He already said he simulates this with Excel and RNG.

One piece of potential news for dr-baker (in particular) to get excited about : A “team of programmers from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe” are reportedly on the Isle of Man, studying the famous TT Race circuit which stretches over 37.73 miles across public roads on the island. The report comes...

This is my first ever track done with gmap-pedometer: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=6378652

I don't know where the start/finish line is, nor which direction should you drive...

I did the circuit half asleep, so there can be some mistakes here and there (read: the whole track is an epic fail).

1. Val77eri Bo77as
2. The Ricciardo-Alonso battle

Basically the same as roblomas'.

Or possibly 30-24-20-16-14-12-10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1 for the top 14 and 5 points for pole, 3 for most laps led and 1 for fastest lap.

W12

Could the point system be changed? I think something like 100-85-75-65-60-55-50-45-40-35-30-27-25-22-20-17-15-12-10-7-5-4-3-2-1 for the top 25 would suit CART better.

What if Fernando Alonso had signed with Jaguar back in 2003?

He would have scored a couple of podiums. And Jag would have won ROTR at Brazil 2003 (both Alonso and Webber crashed at the main straight in the space of one lap)
