Toyota exit shifts F1 balance of power 8:15pm on 10 Nov 2009 Just want to say this, not sure if you know but quote
"The future racing at the legendary circuit Spa Francorchamps – traditional home of the Belgian Grand Prix – is in jeopardy after it emerged that the Ardennes circuit has had its licence suspended by the local Council of State until 2026."

That's the only decent circuit left in F1 on its way out. again!
Can anybody verify this story ?
Another sad loss if it is.
Pick your classic grand prix 7:36pm on 18 Sep 2009 Gotta be Mexico 1990, mainly because i miss the circuit, lots of curves switching right to left, and one hellofa big pit straight. Watching the cars go through the Eses was brilliant. Have great (but hazy)memories of 92, with mansell just getting fastest lap after fastest lap. And Jonny Herbert making some classic overtaking.

Would love to see the original Interlagos circuit before it was shortened to todays form. Maybe hope for brazil's classic race?
Ted Kravitz - the German GP from the pit lane 7:37pm on 15 Jul 2009 I think Brawn had the tyres all wrong this weekend, it was much hotter at the beginning of the race, and they could have maybe got equally good pace on the harder tyres with less graining. By the time they made the switch of compounds the track temperatures had fallen, and the right call would have been for the softer. It was Alonso who clocked fastest lap on the harder tyres at this time. Just makes me think Barrichello knew the strategy was wrong. I was really hoping they would have switched to harder tyres and higher fuel for the 1st stop.
