I really like motorsports especially Formula 1. I think Kimi Raikonen is a very good Driver as well as Jenson Button.

The best drivers are Räikkönen and Alonso.

Schumacher has lost it in the last years and has been winning only because of his car and the same can be said about Coulthard.

Jacques Villeneuve is the only Canadian driver so I gotta stick with him. I used to watch F1 quite regularly... when I was up early enough on a Sunday morning.

I'll stick with the Champ Car Series for now.

Haven't you Finnish learned how to use the 'shift' button on your keyboard to capitalize letters yet.

If I want to watch a race I want to watch it live, it just is not the same if you watch it on tape.

Enough with the capital or not capital thing already! :lol:


We'll my favorite is Mark Webber I like him he drives so fast you won't believe a Jaguar car ranks up in 5 place (He almost took pole on Interlagos).

Hey -welcome back PJB!

IMO, Michael Schumacher is still the best driver in the paddock. Not until the last few years did he have the best machine under him, and he did win twice ithBenetton in 94 and 95. Kimi Raikonnen has lots of raw talent, and will certainly be the future of F1. Montoya is probably th second best driver, as has the agressiveness in his driving.

Webber was fantastic is his last two qualifyings, and it is amazing that hehas put the Jauar in the top 6. M.Schu is not 'losing it', but he does admit he has made mistakes in the past few races; so have other people but he has not been able to get away with his mistakes.

Race at Imola this afternoon...who do you think will win? I think Barachello, as he really wants it after so unfortunately retiring for the 9th time in the Brazillian GP last fortnight.

Webber would deserve to be on the podium, but when the ITV pit crew asked him yesterday, he said that he was quite light on fuel, which might explain his qualifying preformace. Still, it was a great drive! Wheres Raikonen starting from? I don't remember. Imola is hard for lots of the rookies because of the bumps on the corners. Still, can't exactcly call Raikonen a rookie...

I think his sixth.He has a great chance of winning because Ferrari has had many reliability problems and his driving has steadily gotten better.

Did anyone anyone just see the race? The Schumacher brothers mum died in hospital last night, and of course they were sad, and Michael just put his head down and went and won the race. Barachello cane 3rd, but could easily have come second if he didn't have such a diasterous last pit stop.

Despite everyones predictions, Mark Webber dropped six places at the start due to a clutch problem and I think he eventually dropped out of the race.

Raikonen came second less than 0.5 seconds ahead of Barachello, and the Macleran strategy really worked out.

As for Villneuve, he has mechanical failure.

As I was watching raceday, I couldnt understand what's happening because the telecast in our cable is in chinese language. :think: I only rely on the text they flash on the TV to see the driver's position.

:swear: Canada deserves to start with a capital. And if Jacques Villeneuve is the only Canadian Driver, then he is my favorite! (The canadian is the guy with the hammer)

Schumacher is the best driver, supported him since i can remember. It is his skill that helps him win races, proven by the new car designs. He did well to win the other day, having his mother pass away and all . :cry:

Then how come he won all his championships with a good team and not before that.

And dont try to say benetton because it was a top team then.
