yes please!

i must say, it was definately a good year this year - but it still sure didn't look like that on Speed!

if it did, they have a lot more viewers! it's amazing how you can condense a season of parades in to what look like one exciting series, full of emotion and disaster. but like i said, a very enjoyabe season to watch this year!

Well if we're ever going to meet in person I'll burn it for you, or i'll upload it somewhere. I actually have every F1 race this season captured from from ITV in the UK. It is really GOOD!!! I was going to make a couple DVD's eventually - if I do I'll let you know.

I was bummed it didn't go down the last race, but 2006 was still pretty great as far as F1 seasons go. 2007 could be even better.

My new favorite driver is Nico Rosberg -- that guy is a future world champion.

Nico is awesome, it was a bummer that the car wasn't able to keep up with the development of the other cars later on in the season though. Personally, I'm a Jenson Button fan and it was awesome to see him get a win this year.

All I cheered for WAS Michael....best driver ever.
of course I am a big Ferrari fan, been to the factory twice and watched Michael test at fiorino. That was very cool. My sons first trip was to the Ferrari factory (he is now 13 months old)
Next year will be very interesting Kimmi is a very good driver too but my wife doesn't like him. She didn't want Michael to retire.
I agree that Nico looks good there are quite a few good new drivers we will see how they hold up. Remember jensons first year? everyone said he was the best ever then he struggeld for a while. Seems to be a pattern with new drivers.
I think the single tire supplier will add some excitement I am a little tired of the tires making all the difference. now if they could reduce downforce and bring back slicks for more mechanical grip.....
