I suppose I should introduce myself. I'm F1000X, but you can call me Frank. I'm 22 a year old American F1 fanatic, and newly disappointed USF1 fan. I've been watching F1 since only 2002, and have remained since a staunch Mclaren (and Anti-Ferrari) fan throughout my viewership. Outside of F1 I'm a full time student, a disc jockey, and an actor when the jobs present themselves. Thats about it.

Frank, I think it's fair to say you will be one of the few new members who will never be accused of being a spambot. Welcome.

Who knows if he isn't in fact an experimental next-gen spambot that can actually produce coherent messages but subliminally produces shoes spam? That username's a bit suspicious...

Gooood afternoon sir, my name is George Agdgdgwngo. Basically sir, I am writing to you from your building societies, and I will glady assist you with processsing your transaction. If you would kindly send me your sort code, account number and bank card details I will quickly complete a mooney transfer, by wiring your monies to your bank account. I have $1,875,430 Ugandan Dollars waiting for you here sir, and they need to be withdrawn from our account immediately as we require to steam clean each vault individually and the monies will not be able to be stored there during this time you see.

Quick, where do I send my details to? I have always wanted currency with a wire-sized hole in! Seeing the notes and coins sliding down the wire from your Gringott vault to mine would be quite a sight to behold!

Hi everyone.

I'm Chris, originally from Manchester, England but studying in Oxford and at the moment living in Hamburg, Germany for a year.

Long time podcast listener but I've only just signed up for some reason, probably because it's the new season.

I think HRT's majestically reject-worthy performance in Bahrain practice has forced me to finally get on here.

I'm a Williams fan, so borderline reject, and I reckon that Fernando Alonso's got this year's title in the bag. Sadly.

Warren Hughes · Post by **Warren Hughes** » 12 Mar 2010, 15:48

Welcome to the forum, Chris. Awesome username too!

JeanDenisAlcatraz · Post by **JeanDenisAlcatraz** » 12 Mar 2010, 17:10

Cheers Warren.

BTW, if anybody is a member of another well-known F1 forum beginning with P (no advert!), my username there is 'White Lightning.'

I'm with Warren. Great name - and much better than White Lightning.

JeanDenisAlcatraz · Post by **JeanDenisAlcatraz** » 12 Mar 2010, 17:52

I chose 'White Lightning' when I was 16 though, so it had a special place in my heart back then

It's not usual around here, but some new members have been kind enough to present themselves/say hello when joining the forum. That, because of the unusualness, seems to generate the odd comment. This topic is reserved for that, from now on; can't make it a "sticky", but will merge any such topics here.

PS: Sorry to take over the thread, Luca.

Hello, I just registered here
my name is Luca and I live in Empoli, a small town near Florence.

I've been a long time racing fan, my favourite team is of course Minardi, and this year I'm supporting Virgin-Manor
Since I have the same first name as The Magnifico Badoer, I also like him, and I'd really like to see him racing in F1 again, starting directly from lap 59 of 60, to see if he can finally score a point.
Me myself I'm a pretty average virtual driver (GTL, Gp4) with occasional flashes of rejectfulness (ask the real driver Fernando Rees, who I crashed into during a GTLegends race while lapped, in real De Villota style)

Seeing that Campos is likely not to compete in the 2010 season, I've decided to form my pesonal reject team... the PACCHIA - COSWOJUDDHARTLAMBO in Partnership with Nippo-Italian Wildcards
the name of the engine derives from all the pieces which were glued together to make it work.

This is the car, built entirely by me, with willow wood:

At the official presentation

The design resembles glorious reject cars of the 70's, like Kauhsen, Trojan and Ensign.

Our goal for new season is to be consistent point scorers, I'm feeling optimistical

You cars prety impressive. i hope your putting mimmo as your number 1

Pointrox · Post by **Pointrox** » 22 Mar 2010, 17:25

Actually, I'm registered here for a few days, but I forgot to find the thread like this, so...
My name is Emil, and I live in Warsaw.
I'm a F1 fan since 1995, and I always enjoyed watching all those low-budget teams with their underpowered cars and reckless paydrivers, like Forti or Pacific (and what is Deletraz doing?).
I first visited F1R two years ago to find some informations about Pacific and JDD himself.
And then I found your forum and joined here to find even more - and so far I'm not disappointed at all

I guess I should introduce myself. I am an 18 year old student who has followed F1 for over 12 years the first race I remmeber watching was Jerez 1997 when I was 6 and have seen every race since. I don't really support any driver but love an underdog so like rejects.

You're definitely a promising member - a guy whose first race was Jerez and still got hooked!

Enjoy, mate.

If my first race was Jerez 1997, I'd have been hooked. Frentzen, Schumacher and Villeneuve all posted identical lap times. My first race was Australia 2004, how's that for rejectful.

Oh, I remember that race! Wheels coming off, title candidates coming together, Frentzen missing the Williams box :lol:

and Newey's McLarens showing what the future held. OK, you're right, that was a cracker.

The first F1 race in my life that I can remember watching was Jerez 1997 as well - this perhaps explains the Schumacher hate I had in my early F1 years.
But my F1 return after a few years pause, now that was rejectful, Turkey 2007
