Can you tell me if 2010 season will be broadcast in HD. If you don’t know is there a way you can find out. I’ve searched BBC website and there’s no info. Many thanks

I think that shumi will be competative and he and rubens are the only two drivers with experience of the pre-refueling style of racing. I would like to see Nico get equal treatment at the team but only the season will tell. Shov is less flappable than Clear and seems to have a more steady approach, I feel that Nico would benifit from his style at a critical point in his career.

I think Villeneuve drove an inspired race that day. It showed some mental strength too to come back after that disastrous start and failed strategy with Frentzen passing him at turn 1.

Don’t forget too that the 2nd Ferrari in Irvine finished ahead of the 2nd Williams (in Frentzen) even if Frentzen had slowed himself before his first stop for team strategy. I feel that the Ferrari was quite close in performance to the Williams that day.

I think that goes with the statement Jenson made about proving himself in a completely new team. So, logically that would imply without any help from his previous team. Of course, I could be wrong but that’s just the way I see it. I must say I did find it unusual that Jenson hadn’t taken Shov with him (as a lot of drivers these days tend to take their engineers with them).

On a side note, ‘Michael Schumacher: The Edge of Greatness’ is a really insightful and well written book into the life (both on and off the track of Schumi). Well done and thankyou James, that book made my christmas

Maybe an investigation into the airline industry statistics might assist in providing a baseline.

Are the best pilots in the air & flying skills also the best pilots in the simulator?

Comments?

becos jenson wants to prove that it was him that won the title, not the team, hence no connection to Brawn whatsoever

and going up against lewis @ mclaren, will earn him the ultimate praise/glory should he win the title again.

if he fails tho…
