Saw a few clips on it on the news this evening. Haven't been following it lately but it looks like it's a lot more exciting than in the Schumacher years when I tuned out because you knew who was going to win every Grand Prix before they'd even started practice. Wouldn't mind getting back into it if I had the time.

Actually watched a bit of the Qualifying on Saturday so watched the Grand Prix on Sunday and it was actually quite good viewing. I've never really watched a full one before and wasn't sure if I could sit through a full one but maybe I hit lucky with some good action throughout and the two McLarens having a go at each other. Hamilton must be wondering how he didn't at least end up on the podium, his tactics and tyre choice seemed to turn out to be a nightmare.  Anyway, as they say in racing, no smoke no poke...bap bap bap...
I'm gonna punch you in the ovary, that's what I'm gonna do. A straight shot. Right to the babymaker.

The changes they have made with regards to tyres ect have made it very watchable now and I have been gettin back into it this yr plus the beeb have been doing a good job covering it but now sky is taking over next yr with the beeb only showing half the races which is a pity as I dont have sky and dont intend on gettin it.

I love the overhead camera angles too. We never had that in our day.
