2007 F1 Calendar Shake Up

[Jon325i]

Some venue dates change, one venue is dropped, one stays in the same country but a different track, and another has to alternate between two locations in the forseeable future.

X 2 ...for the ten-billionth time

i HATE nascar, it's so boring... it's not even like those are real cars or even SLIGHTLY based on streetable versions of a production car

nascar is a prime example of poor sponsership placement. - i'd like to see a "Microsoft" sponsered F1 car, think that would give Ferrari a run for their money? ...haha, sorta like Renault

or a "Target" sponsered Pike's Peak HIll Climb Rally car!?!?

[b*saint]

No San Paulo? Or is Interlagos the same thing?

And yea Microsoft has the most money to throw at F1.

Every time I hear about other forms of racing, I raise the middle finger to the sky for nascar. I mean, seriously, I can appreciate all things automotive, but the only things you will ever see on TV are drag races or nascar, undoubtably the most straight-forward, boring to watch automotive spectacles ever invented. I was on YouTube.com today checking out some freaking rally highlights, jesus, that is some fucking nerve-wracking, balls-out, scary-as-shit racing right there. And yet these fucking idiots still want to do their little oval tracks or quartermiles. Sometimes I think TV and radio is just a cruel joke being played on us, that there's some puppet master up at the top saying "See, I told you these guys would eat up anything".

Fuji? Hell yea!

[SchnellerVert]

Ah man this just more screwed up each year. And why? would not want speed to carry it live. Get a cheap VCR and record it if you can't handle waking up at 4 am for Turkish GP or TIVO it.
