Personally I think it would be a good idea for a woman to be in F1.

Second thoughts after seeing this...........maybe not!!

Jebus!

Well apart from it being the first race and us having new cars and drivers. Aus was a bit boring wasnt it, apart from Mr Coulthard taking a severe dislike to Wurz's Head.

As I said before, I have watched GP's for 4 decades and even in the classic eras, many races were boring. It is the anticipation of seeing a great one that keeps me coming back and like the supporter of a bad football team, when things get good, it feels so much better than watching brillance every race :k:

Another plug for MotoGP. If you haven't seen a race yet, try and watch tomorrow's Spanish GP at Jerez. I've just watched qualifying. The first 12 riders, on 6 different makes of machine, are covered by 0.48 secs!

Pedrosa, on pole, wants to win his home GP but there is aggro between him and Rossi (second on the grid, 5 hundredths of a second behind). Any one of 10 riders could realistically win.

When has F1 ever offered that? Wake up and smell the Java :lol:

Live on BBC2 and Eurosport tomorrow from 1230 BST.

Gilles Villeneuve vs René Arnous at the 1979 French GP. Breathtaking stuff.
I'm trying to imagine Murray Walker's commentary. By the time they crossed the line, I'd imagine only dogs could hear him.

:lol:
