Ferrari Mailing List: Re: **SPOILER** Don't any of you WATCH F1 any more?

[Rick Lindsay (rolindsay]

No kidding!  They may still have a pretty good car, and they have the same 
drivers as last year, but they seem to be missing the 'race strategy' necessary 
to be competitive.  They also have serious competition this year!  Still, 
Ferrari always rises to the challenge.  Let's just hope it doesn't take so long 
that the lag can't be overcome.

I'm a die-hard Ferrari fan but I must admit...  I ordered a BrawnGP shirt the 
other day!  I like Ross.  And I wouldn't be surprised if Schumacher didn't 
eventually end up over there consulting.

I need to get to the garage to affect a few repairs to my old Mercedes ponton 
BUT, I'll probably watch the replay on SPEED-TV at noon (Central).  I found 
last season, that some of the re-broadcasts were "edited for content" to fit 
the time slot.  And given that SPEED-TV is a NASCAR channel now, I wouldn't put 
it past them to edit-out interesting but non-crash things.

So Dan, you've restored my faith. :-)  I wasn't alone at 3:30am. :-)

In fact, the friend I used to watch F1 with, who now lives in Wellington, NZ, 
and my other close friend, Rui Gigante in Portugal, got together on a Skype 
conference chat during the race!  If you use that tool, please consider joining

regards,
