The new season is here ...Thoughts ..????

I've got the F1 fever real bad

It looks like Ferrari, McClaren and BMW appear to be the strongest teams again and Fernando Alonso is always a good representative of the *real nobility gentlemens' sport*

And let's see how the Super Aquri, Toro Rosso infringement on the Red Bull pans out with what I imagine will be bitter rivaly racing ...

Excellent first race in Oz!

F1 is the ultimate motorsport on the planet hands down!

Yeah, Now that Schumacher retired.

Did you guys see the race yesterday on Speed channel? One of the qualifing Ferrari cars took off out of the pits with the jack still under him. He dragged it for quite awhile. Funny shit.

Yes but Ferrari still has a potentially winning team without him.

I am so surprised they never signed brother Ralf (sp?)!

I think F1 is going to be better this season than it has been in a long time ....

Looks like Kimi is gonna dominate F1 now that he's in the red Ferrari.

Although Alonso should make it interesting. Some of the rookies looked very impressive too.

Agreed, Hamilton and the BMW car did very well in Oz!

If Hamilton can maintain the calm, cool and fast approach through out the whole season..... It will make things much more interesting than a duel between Kimi and Fernando.
