^^^ My understanding was that Bernie wanted a 20 race season? Well this is only a provisional schedule anyway. So about 20 to 30 percent of it will probably be changed by the time February comes around.

Something I immediately noticed is how late the season starts. This is about 3 weeks later than usual. So if the proposed 20-race schedule does materialize. I'm guessing something will be put in place before, or switched around with Australia.

The other thing I'm seeing is that France still has a GP? Supposedly this was the last year that the race was to be held at Magny-Cours. So if by some miracle that there is a USGP again next year. The British GP date could be moved to that weekend, while the USGP would be the following weekend after Canada.

At the same time however. If there isn't a USGP next season. I think the handwriting is on the wall about Bernie looking for a street racing venue in the US. Which I wouldn't mind at all. It used to be fun to have the Formula 1 season open with a street race in the US.

Yeah, during the last race, the commentator on the austrian tv said that in a short talk with Bernie he mentioned that unfortuneately there is no alternative at the moment for france and its very likely that there will be another France GP next year...

Street race in the US would be epic win!

Alonso very much CAN fight for 4th place, he's driving brilliantly and Renault have been nicely, if he was still in a McLaren or Ferrari he would very likely be leading the championship aswell.

McLaren are looking tasty at Silverstone, thank god as the Ferraris have taken a liking to the circuit (Hardly surprising given the circuitss characteristics)...i'm desperate for Heikki to strike some consistent form, and race day should suit BMW aswell, it should be fun

wish I was going to the race (240,000 visitors over the 3 days, 90,000 on race day alone), i'll be going to the cinema to watch it in HD on the big screen.

Coulthard is retiring at the end of this season...well, some might say that the track will be a safer place without him, but he was a nice guy and a great racer!

I'm betting for Vettel to move to Red Bull, and Senna (Bruno of course) to move up into Toro Rosso, unless Alonso somehow fancies RB, which is unlikely.

Just heard the news about 2009 being the last year for Silverstone. All because Berine has a huge problem with anyone else in F1 besides himself making money off the races.

Bernie =

I'm sure a few mechanics are going to be celebrating tonight.

You spin me right round, baby right round like a record, baby, right round right round...

I don't get Massa, one day he's the quickest driver in the world, the next he's driving like he's never sat in an F1 car before. His form is all over place.

stuh84 · 07-11-2008, 09:14 AM

You ever seen Massa race well in the wet? I sure haven't

I remember one time Alonso being MILES behind him, moment it rained, it looked like Alonso was overtaking a lawnmower, not a Ferrari.

Can't wait to see how Hockenheim will pan out though
