Would certainly be my choice but wouldn't be surprised if they just reverted back to the Nurburgring being the home of the European grand prix again.

How about Zandvoort

Agree, the worst circuit ever used, by a country mile.

 

A1 ring was pretty dire aswell.

I'd agree curahee, the nursing not appear to har the cash and not sure imola is set up for modern f1, turkey is a decent circuit tho

 

The problem with Turkey is the lack of fans. It is a good circuit though.

The Nurburgring and Hockenheim share the German GP as neither can afford a race every season.

Good shout but I'd need a few upgrades.

Good track but see above re: Germany.

At least it was a proper race track. You got overtaking there.

 

 

He's got previous.

He's not having much luck is he?

 

His F1 career if it was hanging by a thread is surely over now.

 

Although they're saying it doesn't affect his recovery from the rally injuries.

Ferrari failed crash tests I see... Little bit of a setback... Wondering I they have just decided to say **** it to the RRA given they seem to be hiring dozens of top people from the other teams... Can't blame them after RB violating it the past 2 seasons

The rumour mill on BBC today has suggested that Lotus are possibly bringing in a woman to be their reserve driver :omg!:

 

Have they fitted a rear view mirror so she can put on her lipstick easily?

Was at the Autosport Car Show at the weekend and saw most of the cars on the grid. Things of beauty!

 

Still can't understand how they fit into the cockpit though :blink:

 

Seen Senna's cars too. Amazing tribute to him.

And so it begins... The reactive ride height systems which maintain height under braking banned weeks before the season after the fia indicated they were ok...

We're thinking of Monza. A weeks holiday in that area with 3 day tickets. :thumbsup:

 

Probably getting grandstand tickets as we didn't at Spa and it was too busy on the banking. And sore on the arse. :lol:

 

The central grandstand opposite the pits is ?478 so its too dear. Probably get seats in Parabolica or Vedano at ?240. :thumbsup:

 

General admission is ?95.

Tyres changing for this year. New compounds mean less difference between tyre types.

 

Intermediates changing to green :ermm: and wets changing to blue.

 

Also a silver tyre being introduced to show the slight difference between the two hard tyres.

Personally I hope it's fast although the fizzy cows will be the team to beat given the stability of the regs....

Just a wee bump to say I haven't forgotten about the fantasy comp.. Registration hasn't opened yet...

 

On a side note the new torro Rosso is a beaut... Massive undercut on the pods - hope they do well
