    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Poor, poor Bruno...

    But contrary to what is written in this article, the official Stefan GP site reports that the equipment has been sent to Bahrain, not Abu Dhabi, thus they're getting ready to start in the race. Moreover, the S-01 has already passed crash test and is due to be tested at Portimao on February 25-28.

    I thought Zoran Stefanovich made strange things with going on and on with his F1 project, but seems it may well be fruitful.

    Well, Toyota's track record's not been that great... and there might be sticking throttle issues with it.
    Life's too short to drive bad cars.

    If they had had such problems maybe they would've actually won something. Maybe they had problems with the brakes. Sticking brakes...
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    First picture of the new Lotus: autosport.com - F1 News: Exclusive: First image of Lotus F1 car

    Looks almost like the classic green and yellow colours of the 1960s.

    All the cars revealed for this season seem to have a very '90s vibe. I cannot really pinpoint why.
    Thoughts?
    "Kimi, can you improve on your [race] finish?"
    "No. My Finnish is fine; I am from Finland. Do you have any water?"

    Rules, and probably the fact that last year' Brawn basically looked like that.

    The new fuel tanks are getting rid of some of the extreme shrink wrapping.

    OK, I dunno if this is the most appropriate thread for this question but I didn't want to start a whole new thread for it. Where do you buy your F1 merchandise online? I've been looking and it seems like everyone has such a weird variety of what they have and don't have. Specifically I'd like some Force India or Red Bull stuff.

    Team website. I picked up a few shirts from McLaren and Ferrari from their own websites. There should be a "shop" tab when you enter their sites.

    eBay works too on occasion.

    Why do this year's cars have such high noses? They look awful.
    It seems that with such a narrow noses they wouldn't be all that effective at managing under-body airflow.

    Effective front wing and managing the down stream flow from it to make the floor and diffuser more effective....
