of the new season this sunday. rossi moving to yamaha, the americans edwards and roberts both right up there, edwards is a dark horse for this years title, my money is on rossi.
oh yeah you will see something you dont see in f1…its called overtaking it makes racing exciting, perhaps you had better not watch because you will see just how crap f1 is.

If the other teams were even close to Ferrari there might be overtaking….it's not our fault if they can't catch us is it?

If you ignore Michael, the championship looks really exciting. I think Button could win.
As for bikes….. It is too nasty looking when they crash. I dont need to see bits of body flailing around.

The other F1 teams have a chance at Monaco because it's such a tight circuit. And I'm going!
For me, the best auto racing out there is dirt modifieds; whenever I'm up in NJ I love going to New Egypt Speedway, a 1/2 mile D-shaped dirt track. Unfortunately there's nothing like that around here except Hagerstown where they race pickup trucks to entertain the rednecks, no thanks

Yeah, just booked a cheapo room for it in nearby Nice, land of topless eurobabes. I originally wanted to go to the Montreal race, because this is rumored to be the last year of it; then I figured out it would cost the same to do this instead

I had thought about the drive to Montreal…… But I dare not leave the country….
I still might go to Indianapolis, but I think the championship might be wrapped up by then. If that is the case, then what is the point.
Monaco always looks like a great place to see a GP. I am very jealous.
$4.7K fo the Ferrari package….. Ummm So essentially $10K for two people, no hotels or flights. Just let mme bump off a few of my old relations and I'll be right there.

Monaco race tix are pretty steep given the crappy dollar against the euro- mine was $500! Otherwise, it was just $620 for the flight and $530 4 nights hotel, not too bad, probably coulda waited for a better deal on the airfare

The hotel is cheap at least. Anywhere near indianapolis that is not booked is charging $200 or more a night. I bet you have a great time.Going to hit the casinos?
