Watched an F1 race for the first time last night (SPOILER)
Wow. F1 is cool. I still can't get over how many g's those cars must pull. 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. |

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...
