Quote from JJ72 :

Button

cos I think some part in the latter season Brawn will bring out an update, which will put it on par with the redbulls, and they will just defend their champsionship lead.

They have been working on the cars for the past week, so hopefully they have found the problem(s) with the car and they'll have them fixed in time for Valenica, so we can have a bit more exciting race compared to last years.

That brought a smile tae my face, I think I've been told he's from Forres but now lives in france?

There we go

LFSW - driven distance for FM-Failure : 1000018 km

Quote from Jordan2007 :

Just shows that you have no life and play Lfs all day

I really will never get why people post such utter crap like the one quoted above. It's really simple if you don't have any constructive to say don't post at all ...

As The Very End has said if that's what he's happy doing then why shouldn't he do that? It's his life let him live it the way he want's to, who are we to question that.

Jordan if you ever drive a 24 hour endurance race in real life, we can say you have no life and all you do all day is drive around a track all day. It's the same principals as what you've just said.

Quote from Shotglass :

so he spent 1million kms without ever turning right once?

Of course he has! He drives the FOX pretty much every day on circuit tracks.

Congratulations Failure

Sorry for the spam, but AFAIK you can't change a graphics card on a laptop as its built into the motherboard.

You can depending if there is an expansion slot for one

Quote from deggis :

So unlike Gene, Badoer really has not raced in a single professional race after 1999?

Nope apparently not, he deserves it though 10 years with Ferrari and no driving can't be easy

Quote from Sponge :

So wild, you don't like touringcar races? They're closed cockpit cars

Not really I hardly ever watch them

Quote from Mustafur :

hes driven the F60 i think in winter testing.

Nope was only Raikkonen, Massa and Gene.

Quote from carey :

Remember de la Rosa in Bahrain ‘05 (that was pretty wild).

Okay okay, most drivers don't lose their ability to race

Quote from Sponge :

Yeah, but current F1 cars are not comparable with 90's F1 cars. Especially since he has no racing-(with others to actually compete against)-experience with the modern F1 car.

He has got plenty of experience with racing, you've just got too remember it's not only F1 he's driving in, he's also driving in the lower formula's as well. A driver just doesn't lose his natural ability to race ... He's also tested every Ferrari F1 car since 1999 with the exception of the F60, which he'll get to grips with in Valencia

Quote from Bonham :

You would stop watching if they add a closed cockpit? I don't understand. Whatever. I don't care about the looks, I enjoy the fast racing.

Yeah I would simple enough. It wouldn't be the same, who really wants to see drivers going around the track in a closed-cockpit? I don't for one.

They've managed 60 years with open-cockpits, with only 26 drivers losing their life behind the wheel of a Formula One car. Two freak accidents within a week and now they're wanting to use closed-cockpits. Why change it now?

Then there's that whole aspect of safety, What if a driver gets trapped ... I could go on, but I'm sure you get the point.

Quote from 5haz :

I get the feeling Raikkonen wants to retire anyway.

I'm not sure if he wants to retire, but he certainly hasn't been the same driver we've seen before the 2007 season Maybe he'll get his finger out with Badoer there maybe he wont.

Quote from BastianB :

bamp

Anyone know who this is?

Quote from TFalke55 :

Well... he has got an anemia for unknown reasons I think, wich actually causes him to be in this awfull conditions...

It's a pretty interesting condition that he has. From an article on Autosport; Casey Stoner's doctor, Claudio Macchiagodena says the Australian has the fatigue of a man twice his age, after spending last week examining his condition.

Falke could you possibly translate that article, if possible?

Quote from Electric Eye :

Well... just found out that apparently my friend's dad work at the uni, arhchitecture sector... He says History, or a subject liek that would be enough :/ Dunno... I think I might only do four subjects.

Up to you really, What course you wanting to do?

Quote from Mustafur :

I think most stupid people would think this is the cure for it:

http://www.hodge.co.nz/images/product/image-5.jpg

That's not a cure, that would be a total disaster for F1. I'd certainly stop watching if that were ever to happen!

Quote from Jordan2007 :

Thats why i hate bikes

There's no reason to hate bikes, they're not to blame after all. It could have happened to anyone ...

It's a shame that he's not going to be racing after getting everyone hyped up, oh well good luck to Badoer.

Quote from Electric Eye :

True... I guess I could do all 5 highers this year... although that might be a tiny bit hard to manage them all...

Can't make a decision to be honest :/

If you get a studying schedule made up then I'm sure that you'll manage fine. I made up one sort of and even passed a subject which I though I was going to fail, a 4 in Modern Studies isn't anything to shout about but hey at least it's a pass ..

+5 I'd defiantly would be up for that. Get some proper online practice in before the events.

Quote from Mustafur :

yeah but thats not the issue, motorsport can be made safer, most of those sports can't be(as much or barely at all).

Tell us what can be done to make it safer? Closed-cockpit racing cars, Formula One is all about the essence open-cockpit racing. No one wants to see people going around in a closed cockpit, They want to see the drivers in open-cockpit racing cars.

Then there's the question of safety if a drivers in a crashes. What happens if the closed-cockpit won't open?

Quote from Mustafur :

The only reason why it isn't as dangerous is down to the safety measures taken. 50 or so years ago it was much more dangerous then basically everything there.

What point are you trying to make with this?

Edit: You said in a previous post that it's too dangerous, now you're saying it's not as dangerous due to the safety measures taking. Please make up your mind.

Quote from Mustafur :

has 50 people died in a rugby game to one of the plays falling into the spectators?

Not that I currently know of, but a lot more people have died with stadiums collapsing than the 26 drivers who've died behind the wheel of a Formula One car.

Just out of curiosity where are you getting the figure 50 from?

Quote from Mustafur :

rallying in the 80s and still today is much more dangerous then everything you have shown imo.

That's obvious isn't it, he wasn't comparing motorsport though, he was comparing other sports.

As you've said previously you can make motorsport can be made safer, how can you make rallying safer? Asides removing all of the trees and spectators ..?
