My only other comment before I go work out is this:

Am I the only one who notices a little part of myself die inside every time a French car company wins an F1 race?

Who will dominate F1 next? Daewoo???

 

I hurt as you do Joseph.

 

yes. it hurts.

 

Breaking news!

I owe an apology to Sato. Turns out that years of driving race cars has damaged Jenson's hearing. Sato said, "I make you drive fast and loose," yet Button thought he said, "I make your ass loose." As you can see, it was all a simple misunderstanding. My bad, Taku.

 

Hey Joe........post some pics of Chases birthday so I can remeber what was so funny

 

 

My photo album is giving me serious problems with both the bulk and individual uploads. I just tried again and got a few more uploaded. Only 5 so far though. Here is a disturbing one:


And a funny one (notice her arm in full slap motion):

 

 

Just two weeks after scoring the maiden win of his car racing career, at the Australian Formula 3 support race during the Formula 1 weekend at Melbourne, 22-year old Bruno Senna - nephew of the late F1 legend Ayrton - took his first victories at the British F3 championship, sweeping both races at the Oulton Park season opener today (Monday).

Following Ayrton's death at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, Bruno's racing career, then still in go-karts, was interrupted during 10 years. Late in '04, he finally convinced the family to support his desire to go car racing, debuting with select F-BMW UK outings.

Last season, Senna drove for Kimi Raikkonen's Double R team in the British championship, landing poles but no wins. At Oulton Park this Monday, a bank holiday in England, the Brazilian kept his cool through three safety car periods to score a comfortable win in Race 1 of the meeting, in which he started from pole.

On Race 2, as the outside polesitter, Senna made the jump on teammate Mike Conway at the start and drove away from the field, beating runner-up finisher Christian Bakkerud by 7.3s.

Ironically, Ayrton's dominant campaign to the 1983 British F3 title did not include a win at Oulton Park.

The United States Grand Prix is just a little over two months away, so in case you have not already done so, I thought I'd remind people to order their tickets, especially since the ticket offer is subject to limited availability.

I hope some of the Ohio S2000 community will make the short trip to Indy to enjoy Formula One in person.
