I even have a poster of Hakkinen and the McLaren-Mercedes in my room (and I was a Ferrari fan!). :icon17:


I was a mclaren fan since my childhood, those lauda/prost era...

til whitmarsh took over the role cos that guy seems has no idea on how to run a team... :wtf2:

and f1 kinda turns into more obvious a money game...

but, on the other hand, nothing comes easy.. look at red bull, they started as one of the new and yongest team, took them many years to finally have newey and the funding from red bull.

also mercedes, took them 4 years to finally have a winning car...

give them some credits :icon17::icon17:

And it didn't work. Something definitely needs to be done about the sound, otherwise they're going to lose fans.

Monaco this weekend! Massa has his take on the race this weekend.

Felipe Massa: Monaco Grand Prix even tougher with 2014 F1 cars - F1 news - AUTOSPORT.com

Torque will be fun here! Or take you out if you are heavy on the throttle. Weather looks pretty good. Should be a fun race. Nico loves this track. Maybe he can get the best of Lewis!

I really want to go to the Monaco GP.

Maybe in a couple of years I'll get one of those Monaco GP Packages... we'll see. Expensive, but probably worth it.

You dont need a package. There are a few ways to do this event.
1. Stay in Nice and take the helo over or the train.
2. Rent an apartment online instead (VRBO) and hang out near the track. Buy tickets early online or just watch from where you are with a TV tuned to the race.
The real fun is the evenings around the casino. Its a big party just people hanging out. GO for it!

Well, that's what the package includes, transfer from Nice. Rooftop, fully catered over looking certain parts of the track (diff. options here), nightlife, etc.

There's one where you get a fully catered yacht too and watch there.


Probably could save quite a bit though without the catered parties, but then that's part of the fun of Europe and Monaco too. ;)

Lewis Hamilton...what a douchebag.

DLSTR 05-25-2014 05:47 AM

Race day! What will happen now. So many team-mates are paired up on the grid P1-6. Start will be interesting with the potential for team mates to hit each other. Will LH get the jump!!!???
