There is no GP in Dubai … they have a Circuit but it does not match the F1 specs … but can be modified to do so … the only one in the Persian gulf area at the moment is Bahrain … and United Arab Emirates (in Abu Dhabi not Dubai) next year … Monaco is definitely a different experience considering they don’t have an actual track and hold the race in the City roads … some take the portable bleachers and some pay to stay in residents houses to have a better view … the tunnel exit new the boat stop terminal is the best view and the tunnel is the toughest part of the race with the sudden change of lighting and the need to adjust your eyes accordingly which alone needs a master plan

If I am not mistaken I remember Ferrari said that they spend over US$ 1,000,000 a year on tires alone … and by that time Michael Schumacher was getting US$ 35,000,000 a year (Robins Barachillo was getting 3.5 or 5 million a year … cant remember) 

Once on the late show with David letterman … he asked Johan Pablo Monotoya (who was an Indy Driver … at the time of the interview he was a F1 driver for Ferrari and now he back to Indy) whats the difference between Indy and F1 … he said the same as an old pick-up truck and a Ferrari


some of the Girls at the F1 in Bahrain

I don't believe the crybaby Juan Montoya was ever with Ferrari....he was with Williams last, and because he couldn't get a seat in a Ferrari, he left, and now he is in Nascar,badmouthing F1....He was only good in Cart, but sucked in F1.

Blanket statement ! I've followed F1 since the mid 1980s plenty of F1 fans over here just more redneck Nascar fans which I always hated.

Doesn't matter, he will never be missed. He was a hot headed Bitch....There was the story of him in a arcade doing a driving game, and he would stay and beat all comers, but he would hog up the game until he he the top score that nobody could beat. Yet his ass was pissed he could beat Schuey, and he blamed it on the fact that he didn't have a Ferrari...no bitch it's you!!!

Agreed...

No kidding because when Schumi first came to Ferrari he had a LOT of work to do he didn't have a " Ferrari ' either he made that Ferrari it speaks volumes on how great he was , like Senna he could beat people in an underpowered car .

No female has ever raced F1

Maria Teresa de Filippis (1958 - 1959)
Lella Lombardi (1974 - 1976)
Divina Galica (1976 - 1978)
Desirι Wilson (1979)
Giovanna Amati (1992)

Just saying.

this has to be the best sounding engine ever. I try to listen to it atleast every morning.

makes you want to drool  :D

from the 94 season ferrari f1 sounds v12



thats funny I used to do the same thing.  I absoutley love and get goose bumps when I hear that sound.  Just unreal power.  I had an awesome sound system hooked up to my computer in Hawaii and I would listen to F1 sounds all the time and just crank it up and my whole place would be surrounded with that sound.  I have never been able to hear it in person though.  The closet was the Long Beach Grand Prix in 1998 I had VIP passes and everything.  Well 2 days before the event I got bit by the spider and I didn't get to go.  I remember telling the doctor at the hospital if I am going to be able to get out in time to go watch the race.  He said no and I was pissed.  Someday I will.

you right about nascar just going around a circle but this F1 shit puts a very unconfortable pit in your stomach just watching it...These guys truly put there life on the lines everytime they race...Its like a rollor coaster...Its cool when your young and all but as you get older, it just gives you an uneasy feeling...

If you think that was tight, try getting the Ferrari , V6, V8, V10, V12, and F1 Cd's...they have all the various Ferrari exhaust notes....

My old business partner had a 308 GTB and I used to take it out all the time on the weekends.  I would whine that thing in first gear going through the beach area and it would sound so awesome.  I got it up around 130 on the St. Thomas bridge several times.

once i saw on tv that shucmi actually allmost lived with his mechanics,  cause they taught him a lot and he talked about how the car behaved on the track a lot more than other drivers, on the tv show his wife actually said that some of the mechanics actually had a room in their house were they crashed at night...

and you think you are obsessed about bb... shumi was obsessed... that is obssesion 8)

a friend of mine drives stock in brasil, rally in paraguay and did a part of paris dakar... and he told me its basically being fearless and not thinking 2 times if you are gonna pass you pass if yu brake , you brake

and in you do rally, the last check pint on the biggest rally in paraguay is a 15 km allmost straight line on the dark in dirt, for those ocations, good all jhonnie walker helps.... specially if you are a few seconds behind... :)

 one time ...first weekend i had my mustang... i was out at whats called a "park and ride"...JUST A BIG PARKING LOT REALLY... AND I WAS "SPINNING BRODIES" (OR WHAT ITS CALLED IN THE BAY AREA... "SIDESHOW" )..   (damnit i didnt mean for caps lock to be on )...    well a cop came over the over pass and when he did he saw me in there going nuts... he hit the lights and started speeding towards the park and ride...   a bunch of my friends and school mates were al out there with a bunch of cars too...    they al started to pull out and drive away because most of them were drunk or high...   well the cop came in and when he did he didnt stop at the entrance he just kept on driving in... it was dark so he couldnt see my license so i pretended to stop by then hit the gas... hahaha... i waited till he got out the car !... well i passed up all my friends driving in the wrong lane hoping he would pull one of them over instead (haha i know im fucked up ) because they were all speeding too and mst, like i said, were high and or drunks...     wel this cop decides to try to make an example of me and passes up all these guys too...   i end up in a high speed chase and my speedometer says im at 150 but im still accelerating..    the cop never came withing a 100 yards so i was pretty confident he couldnt get my license and as we aproached town he baclked offf......    but stupid fuck me, i didnt slow down at all...and as i got into town there was a red light and i had no choice but to make a right turn.. bu i was still goign over 110...   and i wa about 20 feet from the light/turn...    FUUUCCKKKK  that turn aroun that corner wa insane but i was  all high on x and weed so i was just having fun with it NO FEAR like i said and i made it just fine and got away from that copp...

Some wanted him to be penilized for crashing into Damon Hill (They were 1-2 in points with 1 point between them) on the last or second to last lap of the last race. Schuey had mechanical problems and when he was about to get passed he got tangled with Hill.
