Just 6 drivers at USA Grand Prix

[Classic Anycar]

I love Formula One, but how can they do this? Michelin quit right before the start. This is about as bad as the NHL season cancellation. Load of BS.

I've said it before; I'll say it again. F1 sucks.

[Rockefella]

What positions are they racing in as we speak?

[Quiggs]

Ferrari, Ferrari, yellow car, black car, yellow car, black car.

Edit: They're showing more interviews with retired drivers than racing. F1 sucks.

Interesting interview with Paul Stoddart of Minardi. He is only racing his cars because Jordan reneged on their agreement not to race. He didn't want to race at all and isn't even watching the race. So if Jordan had stuck to their guns and not raced it would've been a 2 car race with just the Ferraris.

and what would you do if you were them? minardi and jordan have first occasion to get sooo many points in only one race, and by the end of the season it can decide how much money will they get from the concorde agreement

I think all our threads got put into one... lol.

But yeah, i heard it was all because of the tires.
Its even worse tho because now some of them are throwing stuff on the track... (kind of pointless considering those are the ones that ARE racing).

9 seconds. Albers just flat spotted a tire locking it up going into the backstretch section.

I've been a Formula 1 fan ever since the heyday of Jim Clark. I've stayed with the sport through the bad and the good but never, NEVER have I been as angry as I am right now.

The USGP is finished. The headline story in today's Indianapolis Star was how this event has never caught on with local fans. How does Bernie think this is going to sit with Americans. How does he expect Tony George to react when he pays tens of millions of dollars every year to host this event only to have his investment turned to rubble by the arrogance and stubbornness of one man.

I don't know whether to scream or to cry. I just know that never again will I feel toward F1 the way I did before.

[Esperante]

What the hell? Oh my......

[Rockefella]

I know ScionDriver and I think aNobleFan went to the race. I can imagine the venting that will happen..

[Quiggs]

The worst part is, most of the people there don't know why 14 cars just pulled off the track.

[Pando]

Aaargh! I just came home specifically to watch the race! This is just absurd... *sigh* But I guess Michelin got their point across. Sucks though.

[Rockefella]

Maybe this will be for the better, perhaps some drivers would have gotten severely injured if Michelin didn't back out.
