Well He may have not many GP F1 championships but I pick Graham Hill as the best and classiest driver ever in F1

Uh... Bananna peels would only work if the wheels were drive wheels... so no wonder British jets suck. :rolleyes:

ROAR!!! I bet thats what an F1 engine sounds like. I have yet to watch an F1 race in person or hear a real F1 engine. Seen lots of Indy car races though.

F1 sounds great in person.  Nothing like it.  TV doesn't capture it too well.  Makes it sound too whiny.  You must visit Mecca.

Primary example.  I still remember that - even the commentators were up in arms.

How can they put so much power down to those tiny wheels on the eurofighter?

are they chain-driven? :confused:

rubbish

Villeneuve dived up the inside, and rammed into the side of the ferrari,  knocking it off the road.

Schumacher turned left to AVOID contact (as you said it was a right corner).

Yes i do still slightly hate him for what he did to Hill....But lately ive become a fan, anything to stop David or Mika winning......

BUT now Montoya is my man again, i used to LOVE watching him in CART (Champcar now?) and finaly im injoying watching him in F1.

With the Young guns coming up now I cant wait for 2004-2008...Watching Alonso, Kimi, and Monty fight it out is going to be a sight i dont want to miss! :)
