Also, has anyone heard anything about Alexander Rossi coming stateside for the race? I know Marussia isn't coming at all but I figured he'd at least make an appearance.

I know your not anything like that. Thats why I said in general with a touch of jest. Lol

But seriously a GTR is not even close to my list as a pick up car.
Honestly my Z would fair up better as a chick magnet. :tup:

Have you seen the video where Rossi drove a F1 car? Ferrari even hinted that if ever he decide to make the switch they will have a seat for him. Maybe as a test driver initially. Lol

I saw him in the Caterham during FP1 last year at the USGP. He got a standing ovation from the crowd. :tup: There's rumors of Marussia heading down the same path, seeking a buyer, so I'm a little sad that he hasn't gotten his chance with either team.

Zoren 370 10-28-2014 12:31 AM

That would be nice to see him switching to a 2 wheeler to a 4 wheeler race car.

Many F1 drives tried the switch to formula rally and motoGp but not as successful the likes of Kimi, M.Schumacker.

Saw Robert Kubica driving a Ford Focus rally car in European Rally. I think he is currently 3rd in the standings.

Another driver nice to see drive a F1 is Sebastian Leob!
He is a rare breed.

Excuse me while I swoon.

Holy hell the sea of humanity on 6th St last night was absolutely insane. I have never seen so many guys dressed as women in my entire life. Lol. Gotta love Austin. Maybe I can stay sober long enough to take Pint up on her offer to hit these amazing roads.

Alright, I've had just about enough of watching this race on tv, I'm gonna break the bank and come down next year, maybe even drive down!

Pintsize725 11-02-2014 04:26 PM

I really wanted Nico to win here. :(

And goddamn Perez for causing Sutil to be out so early.

Stub hub had really cheap tickets two weeks before the race. The rest of it will be expensive though.

Like Pint said, just keep your eye on stub hub and make your hotel reservations at least 6 months in advance!!!:tup:

It's hard to be objective, but it seems like COTA is the place that the drivers and teams have the most fun all season. I'm not sure if Riciardo had fun because he seems to always have fun. Great race.
I'll have to get to this race soon.

God-Speed 11-03-2014 08:08 AM

Well another F1 race weekend here in Austin has came and gone. Hope you all had a fun time at COTA and Fan Fest downtown. I think next year is going to be interesting with the Mexico Grand Prix following the race at COTA as far as attendance goes. Regardless we are already looking forward to next year. Hope to see you there!!!:tup:

I wonder if the track in Mexico would even be ready for a race next year?

I'm looking forward to the 2016 USGP. Hopefully Rossi will be with Haas racing on the grid and I think I'll be partaking in a super sweet package deal with some G+ members.

Solid win by Nico. He had it this weekend. LH over driving again. Abu Dhabi will be fun to see. No weather issues there at all.

Rosberg has to win the race while keeping Hamilton from 3rd or lower in order to take the title...

Looking at the record, mercedes finished most of the race as 1-2 this year....

Nico will need to be fast and hope LH does have some sort of issue. Williams should be very fast and that might help as Abu Dhabi has the long straight.

ayrton88 11-09-2014 04:26 PM

I hate the fact that double points could decide driver's championship. That said, Nico's dad won the championship while only winning one race that year, so it's not like F1 hasn't had a history of goofy point scoring system.

Pintsize725 11-09-2014 05:23 PM

Woo hoo! :happydance:

yes, but do they need two world champ aka expensive drivers at the same time?


Button is better but Magnussen is not that bad as a rookie...

Alonso can help the development thus should they need another experienced driver, that's the question..

God-Speed 11-23-2014 10:04 AM

Well the end to another great F1 season!! Hamilton wins the race and the Championship. Glad our guy won but wanted to see him and Rosberg fight till the last lap. The off season is going to be interesting so until next year guys and gal. :tup: :driving:
