You could try Redbubble.com. They have some cool F1 stuff – I got a #placesalonsowouldratherbe sticker for my car.
I wish the teams merchandise included things for dogs.Verstappen on Grojean. I know his tyres were offering more grip than Grojean’s but I was impressed by Verstappen’s ability to plan/think four corners ahead.
Interesting to read your opinions Jonothan189. I disagree in some part. The injury sustained by Phil Hughes was a very rare occrance. The doctor who treated him stated their had only been 100 previously recorded cases of his type of injury (an artery leading to the brain that lies below the ear was split by the impact of the ball) and only one recorded case throughout the history of cricket. Conversely, I cannot help but think of how avoidable Jules Bianchi’s accident was. How many times have we seen cars skid off a wet track in the same corner that another car already has?
The Phil Hughes incident was absolutely unimaginable but it was so easy to see the possibilities of that vehicle being trackside at Suzuka.
I think the cricket community has handled the tragic events of last week amazingly and respectfully.
I hope that there is suitably appropriate findings from this investigation which is meant to be finalised in a day or so’s time but I strongly doubt it. I think it was a clear cut case of negligence and the parties responsible should be told so. No outcome will help Jules though.I sympathise with you fellow Aussies. Considering what the fans in Europe are saying I suppose we should consider ourselves lucky that F1 is on free to air TV …. However I know I’d gladly pay for coverage of Free Practice Sessions and coverage without ads. The Channel Ten coverage is …. adequate….. is the most complimentary I can be.
I don’t know if Channel Ten outbid Foxtel for the rights or if it is dependant on the media Baron situation.I enjoyed Vettel’s move on Raikkonen on lap 53. I suppose it was technically DRS assisted as it was at the end of the back straight, but it was still great.
Interesting to read people’s opinions on this matter.
Regarding Jean Alesi; There was a time when he seemed to have the same potential as M Schumacher. When I started following F1 again last season after a loooong absence it shocked me greatly that he only won one race!
I never saw Anthony Davidson in F1 but it would seem that things never fell in his favour. Wasn’t he set to sign for Williams in 2006(?) but Honda put the blockers on it? BAR Honda only had room for one British driver and I am sure than Button’s image/looks/charisma played a role in him getting the spot, besides how quick he was.
I wonder if Anthony watched on in 2009 thinking that it could have been him winning the WDC if only fate had been a little different?
