Wow. F1 is cool. I still can't get over how many g's those cars must pull. :shock: And of course, they are fast. Damn Ferraris finished 1-2. Montoya's car crapped out in the last couple of laps and the MB-McLaren engines suck. :roll:

Just awesome overall.

I got the speed channel a couple of weeks ago. Just in time to watch Sebring. That was fun too.

$6 well spent. :D

F1? :yawn:

Wake me when they end the technology demos and start racing again...

There were some exciting moments, despite the seemingly predetermined outcome. It was wild when Ralf almost flipped after making contact cutting off Weber(?). And watching Kimi's McLaren turn into a flamethrower was quite a sight.

Very boring race IMO.

Televised auto racing is usually pretty boring.

The F1 Decade races are always really good.

I didn't watch the entire race, only when the Red Sox season opener was in commercials (that one sucked :roll: ). Still, being my first time, it was pretty cool. Certainly a lot more fun than NASCAR. It also didn't last too long.

I'm not saying I've just become a fan, I'm simply saying it was cool to watch.

I wonder what JPM is thinking now after almost all the McLaren engines blowing in the last 3 races...

He's thinking he's fooked and he's going to the barbque fest.

I almost fell asleep but the field trying to catch up had some pretty good action, and the track was very cool since it was highly technical.
