Sunday 5 February 2012

That makes this the second blog of 2012 then..

Justin: Just 39 days until Free Practice 1 in Australia! I can barely wait...for the race highlights... on BBC 1 on the Sunday afternoon.

Some of the new cars have been launched - The McLaren looks rather nice, tidy, tight - it certainly looks like it should be fast. The Ferarri looks like a damn beast, almost like some sort of designers monster frankly....looks, more chunky....we will of course know nothing until the first tests next week. Ferarri are said to have taken a very aggressive approach, even re-introducing a front pull rod suspension, which was last used in f1 ten years ago!

Not too much other news to report really. Bruno Senna got the Williams drive, which I personally think is excellent. Lets see what he can do given a whole season in a car that isn't (as) shit (as an HRT).

Looking at the latest reports, I don't think poor Kubica will be back at all. Though, it's amusing to see Kimi say he'd perhaps like to juggle a rallying career alongside F1 in future - does he realise who his employers are?!

Naughty Adrian Sutil was found guilty of...assault...was it (?) and handed an 18 month suspended sentence. Oooppsss!

I bought another F1 book to get me through the wait til the first race - one which my co-blogger will be interested in. It's called "The Limit" and is the story of Von Trips and Phil Hill and their infamous race at Monza in 1961.
