This is amazing stuff, I love hearing the turbo spool again.

Whenever I think of Monaco I think "Hey! Alberto. Let's go for a swim."  :? Wayno

Formula One is so far out there it boggles my mind.  How a human can operate at that level is beyond me.

Piquet once said it was like flying a fighter jet around your living room. :-D :-D :-D :-D

Cool footage. Reminds me of pro motorcycle enduro videos where they are constantly dodging trees. Of coarse a get off in the woods at 50 causes broken bones where a F1 crash with your feet sticking out the front of the car at high speed is much more serious.

Monaco has always been my favorite race! I'm just not a big fan of the new engine platform they started using a year or two ago. Sure seems to me like the older cars were much faster.

Joe, imagine a bunch of politicians running a racing series?.


That's F1 now. The guys can't even take a pee and miss the bowl. They'll be penalized. :-D
I only watch F1 if there's no other racing on.

American racing is way better. I figure the guys in the old days were super smart by building ovals.

Monaco has always been my favorite F1 race also. I hate that they are running turbo's i liked it better when they would REV to 18,000 RPM. I heard the first year that they ran the turbo's there was one of the tracks that tryed to sue F1 after the race because the cars did not sound right and the fans and the track felt that they where cheated.  :cheers:
