YES
it seems that they have finally started changing the cars. that williams will have alot more downforce. has the mp4-19 been released yet?
man 04' will be sweet! 2 new tracks, an old track back on the schedule(spa) and a real fight for the championship starting to take shape!

I heared on F-1 live.com, that mike schumacher will retire if ferrari doesnt win both titles this season. That would be awsome to see him leave-hes done the damage, now leave before i hit you with a stick!

well cub, the williams drivers have already said it doesnt handle any differantly to the 2003 car. if you do a search it doesnt look much differant to last years car. the nose cone holders are now on the outside not underneath.
As for schumacher, enjoy it while you can you will never see a driver as good as him most likely in our lifetime,

ok, ill admit it, i dont like your interests very much(denver broncos, michael schumacher),.......hmmm, i seem to have nothing else to say...........oh ya, i dont care how good of driver he is, hes still the one winning all of the championships, and im getting tiered of it. ever since the first F-1 race i watched, he has won nearly all of the races since. i want to see some different colors on the podium(thats why i liked last year).

lol, what do you expect him to do? sit back and say please take my glory please take my money, all because a few people are bored:) LOL
seriously though, i can honestly say F1 may have differant winners when hes gone, but it wont be anywhere near as good as it is now, having watched F1 all my life i can say i have seen some greats come and go in the last 18+ plus years, but schumi's brought something differant to the track. i mean who else is gonna take his place? Schumacher Junior? Mikka hakkinens"mini me", or an ayrton senna wannabe who doesnt have the right instincts to be good enough to challenge that title?

and one last thing, you can question my tastes in F1 drivers, you can even disagree, But NEVER and i mean NEVER question my choice of football teams Angry

LOL

All in good fun Wink

lol and the few weeks before that?? the score.
enjoy it if your a colts fan while you can, manning is way to over-rated, denvers defence stayed at home that night, and KC doesnt have a defence. However the Patriots, see theres a team which doesnt mess around and will show up how poor manning is against a good defence.

As for the Indy 500, who cares, too many times have i heard drivers of all these american races go on about moving up to F1, look at your boy Montoya, if F1 wasnt the top place to be would he be there, i doubt it.
And who knows where Senna could have ended up going, a number of retired F1 drivers goto america and race there, but sadly with him being killed it was all cut short

ok, i really dont care what you think. who says i think montoya is the best? i simply like him more than anyone else because he has earned my respect by winning the Indy500. in my opinion, the best driver is the one that can easily make the transition from series to series(Mika Salo, Mario Andretti) you really arent an american, i can tell.

never claimed to be,
but then again i have been watching motorsports longer than you have been on the planet.
and no offence but real drivers are the ones who can win consistantly on circuits that arnt ovals. Monaco is considered by both fans and drivers as the ultimate circuit to win at, until a driver does that, they will never achieve true greatness.

Hear Hear Craig !!!!!
Who wants to watch cars do 500miles in circles. 200 miles or 2hrs on twisty bits is far more fun.

Im looking forward to the new F1 season and to see if Schumi can make it again because theres no one anywhere near him. I would have loved to have seen a Schumi Senna head to head but alas it wasn't to be.

And just to put these yanks in their place ... wasn't it Nigel Mansell who went over there and despite taking a large chunk of concrete out of one wall @200+mph,went on to win not only the indy500 but the drivers championship in his rookie year .. (i could be mistaken but the first rookie to do it)....

Heres another ponderance .... why do you yanks call it Football when the only time the ball is kicked is on a punt?

I love YaBB 1G - SP1!

hey now, you europeans, not all Americans like circular race tracks or drag strips Wink

, I enjoy watching Superbike or MotoGP, but its pretty rare that I'd see those on tv here in America, I dont know why nascar is so popular, or the Indy 500.... ???

because it contains consistant overtaking, differant leaders. and it doesnt usually require too much attention to follow. Not really trying to put it down, just saying it isnt my kinda thing.
