Im telling you, these finnish drivers are like natural selection,
edit: grr, that was supposed to be a link to "Kovalainen wins World Series title
The championship for the Renault development driver"

 

[eLmo]

great work with the link grizzly

Yes Finnish drivers are the best ie, Hakkinen, Marcus Gronholm, Tommi Makinen, Juha Kankkunen < though old now he was one of the greatest drivers in the WRC..even Mika Salo was good.. oh and we can't forget Kimi

(GMM - Oct.18) F1 driver Takuma Sato visited a specialist in London following a painful Japanese grand prix.

The home town hero was watched, by an on-board TV camera, holding both the left and right side of his lower helmet during the race at Suzuka.

Sato, 27, said he hurt his shoulder in Bahrain (April) and it persisted until late July.

''And (the injury) came up again (at Suzuka),'' he confirmed on Friday.

I don't if he'll drive at Brazil - I hope so..

Even at the motorshow there is soooo much ferrari f1 propaganda merchandise
But you walk to the mercedes shop, and theres practically nothing!!

BMW had heaps of f1 stuff as well ... but its all too expensive. I wanted the little teddy bear ... it was so cute, but it was like $99
I stood for like an hour at the ferrari stand ... god i'm sad ... and i also took a video of the video that was playing that had schumacher on it ... lol

 

[eLmo]

This teddy?
$99 is bloody expensive ..^its cheaper there
one hour at the ferrari stand ..yes very very sad cape

 

[Cape]

Yeah thats the teddy ... it was so cute ... everything associated with f1 is so expensive ... the williams backpacks were like 100 and something dollars!!! god only knows how much the ferrari key ring that i wanted was ... i already have one and it cost $25 ... rip off!!! but its ferrari and so i can afford that for ferrari ... lol

I don't need reminding that i am sad for standing there that long ... lol.
