F1 BLOG

Formula 1 fans can welcome back seven-time Formula One champion Michael Schumacher.   The German was announced as Mercedes Grand Prix driver for next season.   Schumacher signed for three seasons with the Mercedes Formula 1 team.    I’ve never been a huge Schumacher fan but he is an amazingly talented driver and I’m sure Michael will add to the excitement in the 2010 season.  Anyone else glad to see him back?  Love him or hate him I want to hear what you have to say.

I so wish that F1 was like this today. I challenge anyone to come up with a better example of what F1 racing was and may never be again…

Enjoy the best F1 battle ever.

I don’t know how many times the question has been asked but  ”How fast is a Formula 1 car?” is certainly one of the most common questions asked.  I found this video that puts it all in perspective:

I hope that gives you a little insight into the question “How fast is a formula 1 car?”

Enjoy the video.

I just came across this compilation of some formula one crash footage that really gives you a new sense of respect for these drivers.  When you see the risks these guys take, be it in a Ferrari or a McLaren or a Williams it just reminds us that these guys put it all on the line for our entertainment.

There is everything in this video from fires to backflips.  Check it out and remember these guys are risking their lives to entertain us….

Enjoy… and lets hope we don’t see any of this at the British GP

Well, With the Monaco GrandPrix done it is starting to look like no one is going to be able to stop the Brawn juggernaut.  With two excellent drivers in Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello and an F1 car that no one seems to be able to catch it is looking doubtful that any of the other teams are going to be able to close the gap.

I guess the question now is can teams like Ferrari and McLaren close the gap in time for next season?
