Bottom post of the previous page:

Have you suddenly warmed to a certain Swedish F1 reject after his unfathomable ninth place finish yesterday? I knew you'd come around!

I've never said I dislike Marcus, just have consistently said he's useless and doesn't deserve an F1 seat.

Ah. My bad.

Apology accepted

[Antonov]

is that the race with the massive wreck for the Penzoil #1?

No, Steve Park wrecked massively there in '02.

not as big as I remembered.

[Antonov]

Texas up next - considered a 'cookie cutter'?

[Ian-S]

Yes.

[Antonov]

Yes.

ass in boring?

[erwin greven]

yes.

[Antonov]

from Brussels, we have a direct flight to Atlanta. I was thinking of using it in October '19. From what I see on googlemaps, Talladega is less than a 2 hr drive away. My only concern is safety, or shouldn't it be?

[erwin greven]

Learn the American traffic rules (and rules of engagement when halted by police) and you are fine.

thanks. Where would you go preferably? Daytona or Talladega?

[Ian-S]

If you go to Dega just stay out of the infield and you'll be fine, it gets a bit wild down there after dark.

Safety in what way?

I’ve been to Atlanta a few times, it’s a fun place. Would love to do Talladega but Daytona needs to be ticked off first. As an FYI, Pocono is around a 90 minute drive from Newark Airport.

1) Shut up, listen to the officer and follow their instructions
2) Don’t be black

Yup, that about summarizes it.

and keeping your hands on the wheel, or does that not apply any more? it certainly didn't help Ken Heron (an internet drone movie maker) with some state troopers a while back.

Jimmie Johnson and Fernando Alonso will swap cars in Bahrain (one day after the Spaniards final Grand Prix).
This should be quite something. If I'm not mistaken, I believe Sakhir also has something resembling an oval, so they may use that for the NASCAR part.
