I would love to go to the Aus GP (the track is about 4 miles from where I work) - just walking around the city you can hear them all weekend.

I am moving back to the US the following weekend though, so might not have time to

Cool!

Are you still going to be working for IB? Or is that one of those things where you'd tell us but you'd have to kill us?

On topic....I love open wheel racing in all forms but have always loved F1 / Indy type racing. I used to like to watch Nascar but there's too much drama in a series that now seems more scripted than wrestling.

Geez, I didn't even know this thread existed......where the hell have I been?

Hi John. Glad you found us. I don't know if we are outcasts here of the elite but there aren't many of us.

I just happened to see this thread on FTE Live a few minutes ago Bruce when I saw your post to Adrian. Glad I found it too.

I haven't been able to follow racing of any sort as much as I'd like lately (as in the past year or so) but some commitments have eased up and I hope to be enjoying it a lot more often now.

Yeah, was a pretty good race.

Pity Webber forgets to change out of reverse gear each time he starts.

Great race. I was pleased.

Good to see Kimi back. He lost a race last season because of tire strategy and won this one on tire strategy. Same story for Alonzo last year.

Happy to see Masa driving like he used to. What a great start!

I'm thinking that Webber could lose his seat. With a car as good as RB, someone could put it closer to the front. Why can't he start???
