A Few Tips For Enjoying the 2007 Formula One World Championship
by David B. Simpson

1. News
Keep up to date with current events in F1. Don’t miss any results or new developments. The races are that much more enjoyable if you have a wealth of F1 knowledge. It really makes a big difference to understand the sport. Hopefully you won’t ever miss a race weekend. If you ever do, get on the web and get caught up on all the results as soon as possible. When anyone starts talking racing or Formula one around you, you will be the expert. There’s too many people out there that have the facts all wrong.
2. The Technical Side of F1.
When you understand how the cars work, how much power they have, you can really begin to see just how good the drivers are and that they are truly athletes. Did you know an F1 car generates enough downforce at a certain speed to drive upside down? Likely won’t ever happen, but the theory works. You here about 300kph+ speeds and 150kph cornering speeds, but do you know how fast an F1 car can stop from 300kph? Phenomenal braking power.
3. Teams, circuits and drivers
Which team has the biggest budget for 2007? What circuit has all of its corners named after former F1 drivers? What’s the oldest circuit on the 2007 F1 calendar? Did you know Ferrari had a driver’s suit made for Michael Schumacher this year just in case he wants to drive? How many drivers are on each team? Hint: it’s not two or three.
Learn as much as you can. Stay informed. The sport and the cars are under constant change. Enjoy the rumours. The ‘buzz’. The glamour. The excitement. The races are usually two weeks apart, but alot can happen in those two weeks…and usually does. Thanks for that one Murray Walker. : )
