FIA's annual F1 survey

Sometimes trivial, but at least this way our opinions could actually mean something.

Then after a while you realise what a waste it was to confirm a scam as it was. And next time you get talked to by the Nigeria link you'll frown a little bit, and just tell them to FO. Well, if this comes a third time, it will be pure hate and fury.
At least that's what I've gone through from my eBay experience, I just got pissed off by those unbelievably obvious scams. What are those scammers thinking?! Rubbish!
Oh, I thought it was about GRID GIRLS appearing in LFS. Or, about cutie girl racers in the community.
I play LFS on my notebook which has a 16M Geforce4 420 Go. Got about 1-7 fps on race starts, and about 15 in the race if no one is near me. Around 20 fps when hotlapping.
But I can't even get rFactor or NetKar pro started with my laptop, so I guess LFS is relatively more forgiving as for GPU power.

On second thought, yes we could choose to ignore. Maybe I just got a little worried by the fact that there're such ppl out there...
Awesome little physics game---part 2

The simpler the better. This game makes me wonder why people are developing video games so complicated.
Great fun to play, enjoy.

I am all for it, but considering many ppl even argue whether snooker is a sport, I seriously doubt e-sport could be included in the Olympics in the near future. However I see it as a trend, some 50 years later I'm confident we will see it in the Olympics.
I don't know if it's against the law, but the racism server is outrageously disgusting and stupid. I am also a bit surprised by Victor's response, I do hope devs can do something about such kind of misbehaviour.
Why the animosity my friend? I asked Becky to tell more about her experience racing with Button, and I enjoyed her story. And it's not the first time a post isn't related to the title of a thread, if you watch other threads as well I don't know why you should be critical about that. To be honest I can't see any motivation for her to tell lies here on this forum, I am just feeling a bit sorry for her not yet making her breakthrough.
Your passion is spot on Becky, hope everything goes well with ya.
Nice story. But had it been the real case that Jenson is at most a second class driver, how could he get an F1 drive and show so much promise in his early years? And if you could beat Jenson on a regular basis, how's that your talent left unnoticed (please correct me if I'm wrong)?
A very nice and useful site. Seriously, I am considering replacing google with it for my home page.
2003 Montoya had an impressive title bid, until the Indy stewards stopped him by imposing a questionable stop go (or was it driving through) penalty for an accident with Barrichello.
BTW Becky, you seem to have raced against Jenson Button, wonder whether it's true. It would be nice if you could share some of your experiences.
Bravo!
Although your driving isn't as impressive.

Hmm, this is the time when you really hate the various track layout variations and nameless corners.
Hilarious stuff.
Although I heard people further north Britain speak purer English.

I think it's blatantly obvious from the info above that DC would even opt for a Ferrari test role instead of a race seat, which is huge itself. How many times you hear about a test driver eager for a race seat? And in the press conference, rather than denying it, DC spoke quite indicatively. Plus considering his attitude towards the Monaco incident involving Ferrari and MS, I'd say DC has an agenda in his pocket. He will be an ideal No.2 driver IMO.
From Autosport in Feb 2005
David Coulthard has revealed that he was strongly considering a Ferrari testing deal before instead opting for a race seat with the new Red Bull Formula 1 team.
The Scot told Italian newspaper Gazzatta dello Sport that he believes he would have fitted in well at Ferrari despite spending nine seasons battling with the Italian cars while driving for their arch rivals McLaren.
“I had the impression that if I had the opportunity to work in that team I would have felt at ease there,” said Coulthard.
“So we talked about the possibility of becoming test driver (at Ferrari), but in the end I had the chance to race so it's fine. Ferrari is certainly a different team.”
When Coulthard visited the Ferrari factory in November it seemed unlikely that he would find an F1 race seat in 2005, but within weeks he had secured the lead Red Bull drive. Ferrari instead opted to sign ex-Williams reserve driver Marc Gene as a second test driver alongside Luca Badoer.
Coulthard, who is currently testing the new RBR F1 car at Jerez, believes Ferrari remain championship favourites despite impressive testing performances by his old team McLaren.
“I expect Ferrari to remain the team to beat,” he said.
From Thursday's press conference
Q: An interesting story today in Autosport suggesting that you’re in contact, in discussion with Ferrari. What have you got to say about that?
DC: Well, it’s inevitable that everyone has to know what the market-place offers. If you look at Ferrari from the outside, they’ve got one driver scoring serious points and the other one not. Any team needs to have two drivers in a position to capitalise and as I say, I didn’t score over 500 points by accident.
Q: So you have been in contact with them.
DC: That’s none of your business. As I said, everyone talks to everyone at this stage of the season so I’m sure that even Jenson, although we believe he’s contracted to Honda, I’m sure he’s probably talking to someone as well.
See, there's no smoke without a fire.

Thanks very much Shinanigans
The vid stopped towards the end, must be some problem with the downloading, I didn't get to see the end.Top notch editing, any chance you are a motor tv show producer?
BTW I am curious about the name of the music at the very beginning, sounds extremely familiar to me and then I remember I heard it in the film "Gone in 60 Seconds".
LOL, I was a n00b.
What's your time for level one btw?
21.1 in my fourth try.
and 9.6 in my sixth try.
EDIT: we got some genius parkers here, it can't imagine doing a 25.x! Gosh!

Last proper wet race dates back to US GP 2003.
They predicted rain far more times than it acutually rains.
illepall All this rain-on-race-day thing has become sort of a joke now.
On the contrary, I enjoy watching it, and with my proposal applied to the current F1, I think I will enjoy more. See where did you lose the plot?
