I believe there is a rule about not hitting other cars with your car. I could be mistaken.

Crap, I just noticed speed is not carrying the race Sunday. We are going to have to endure an Fox presentation.

Maybe I wan listen to it on Sirius and mute the TV?

If I had to see one more graphic of how the steering wheel is not round I was going to scream.

Some people just like to hate Ferrari. If Kimi had pulled a DC and closed a door I would agree with legion he should have been penalized, but looking at what happened and saying it was on purpose is just plain silly. It ruined Kimi's race too and while Sutil did not get his 1st points of the season Kimi fell from 1st in points I think Kimi got his penalty too.

Some people hate Ferrari because they do not have to play by the same rules as all the other teams. If everyone ever has a level playing ground then things might be different.

Course if Jean Todt replaces Mosley we all know it will change right?

SPEED is owned by FOX that is why we get the same F1 announcers.
its is also why Speed has so much Fox type of crap programed now. i want my SPEEDVISION back!!!!!

Now when/if they have one on CBS get out the Sirius

Sure, no problem. Where, what time? PM sent.

Put in new transmission mounts, and a new oxygen sensor & head tem sensor. Car is shifting much better and running like a top. Looking forward to taking it for a spin!
