4 days and counting until the AGP... should be a good season. Will be interesting to see if Alonso/McLaren can produce consistent wins, and how well the Kimi/Ferrari combo turns out. Any of you F1 fans on any F1 forums? I'm looking for one to join... and also looking for a source of quality F1 pics. Especially high-res ones...

Can't wait for the season to begin.

Yup, I'm going to see if I can get a few days off work and drive up for the Canadian GP.

I've never been to an F1 race - maybe this year will be my first. Has anyone been to both the US and Canadian GP to compare the two?

FINALLY, all the F1 fans are finally back alive again....testing during the off-season is barely enough oxygen for us.

This season will prove to be very interesting in my opinion. Super Aguri with their SA07, based on the works Honda 06 chassis, will no doubt be competitve considering Sato and Davidson are driving. Davidson is a very fast guy and will give STR and Spyker a run for their money.

Hamilton, Massa, Heikki, Raikkonen, Alonso will surely be fighting for the top spots on the podium.

You should try to make it to the Canadian GP in Montreal. The race is held on an island in the middle of a river, and they pretty much close down the city for the entire weekend. The cars are displayed on the streets the day before as well... it's just one big party.

plus one for the Canadian grand prix, an amazing course, great location, and most of the seats are vary close to the track, the US grand prix is pretty bad and you sit WAAAAYY far from the course..........and if your from the northeast its a no brainer, i got my tickets cant wait

and if you go there stay in the main city, the suburbs of montreal are terrible, and people are mean, the main city has tons of parties and events, and everyone speaks english

I don't know for the american Grand Prix, but last year there was also the BMW Pit Lane Park in downtown Montréal. It was very nice !

+1 for the canadian Grand Prix

The season has officially begun! Chime in if you're watching.

chandler · #14 (**permalink**) 03-17-2007, 09:37 PM

watching, i think i almost died in anticipation for the season to begin! Have not missed a race in 6 yrs. I just feel honored to have been tifosi during the greatest drivers era of all time. I bet heads are rolling at honda considering the 'works' honda is getting outpaced by its sibling tier 2 team. lol. I will have a hard time getting used to Kimi's attitude and drone methodology of conversing in interviews but always wish ferrari the championship. But Massa is my guy. I'd rather have him win then Kimi. Tifosi out...

I don't understand why Coulthard is still racing.
