F1 -interesting
 
Would have been better if they hadn't allowed cars to be worked on during red flag, but a great race all the same. Now on to Indy. Great day of racing.

Great race. Hamilton's pass of Schumacher was a thing of beauty.

But I have to start watching it another way. The amount of commercials and inane commentary on Speedvision make watching F1 a real pain. I've never seen so many commercial breaks on any show- ever.

I agree, great race.

Blame Bernie (greedy bastard) Ecclestone for the commercials. The cost to air the show is off the charts. It's time for Michael and Bernie to retire for their own good and the good of the sport.

Loved the Hamilton audition for the NASCAR truck series...........

advertizing is much worse on Indy race as usual, hard to watch and miss ALL the good things like the caution periods

I couldn't find a free online streaming site:(

How many incidents did ham-bone cause, 5? 6? He should have been black-flagged and suspended for the next race.
What a hack, he drove like his last name was Sato.
He belongs in a monster truck.

"Its not my fault" Hamilton claims, "other drivers are fricken stupid", and the Stewards target him because he's black. The dude needs to get a grip, sheesh.

I need to watch the replay but I thought Massa was at fault.

F1: FREE BBC streaming, no commercials and great commentary. Far better than Speed the NASCRAP channel. Excellent race but too bad about the lap 70 carnage. Would have liked to see what could have been with Alonso and Button on the charge. Vettel and team pulled a rabbit foot for stretching the tires.... amazing longevity for Pirelli. Well deserved win. Hamilton who?... the points gap is getting bigger... like the gap in his teeth.

Indy: Fell asleep a few times. Did you know there were some 8 year old tubs in the field?! In my area it was a nasty rainy day so I wasted time watching it. OK for Graham Rahal... thats all.

Finally had an excuse to try out my new Fanatec Porsche GT3 rs wheel-pedals and went virtual racing. Downloaded the 1967 GPL sports car set and Targa Florio. Drove (more like trashed) a Porsche 910! Amazing and a blast.

Guys, TIVO the puppy!

I am getting ready to watch it tonight, and fast forward through ALL of the damm commercials.

Henry Schmidt 05-29-2011 07:07 PM

I've got to watch it live. 4 AM for me.
F1 with home made cinnamon rolls, fresh ground Colombian coffee and a couple of mates.
This morning there was also a pound of extra thick bacon (the house still wreaks of it).
Cinnamon rolls with a slab of bacon. Man Card required ;)
Commercials are just part of the deal. Sort of like that hot chick who occasionally does a swan drive into crazy. You just deal with it.

lewis hamilton is a ****ing moron......just lost total respect for him.......ass.......

Did Vettel ever get penalized for using Webber's tires?

I don't think he used Webber's tyres... according to the team boss...
Hammy is free falling into a nasty place....I hope the team can bring reality back for him.

Shame about new tyres for the last laps it felt a bit strange to have a few laps of quali to settle the race order...ho hum rule changes ahead.

Good comments MFAFF! I think you can see some of Hamilton's desperate mind set by the low percentage moves he is trying, and his lack of respect for other drivers. Some his statements today and other comments he has made in the past really don't sound good to me. Hopefully the team can help him get his ego in line.

I have really enjoyed watching some of his drives, not so much today.

What an amazing spectacle this race weekend is there in Monaco.

There was no evidence that he did, only wild *ss speculation about the horrible pit stops for both Vettel and Webber.
