Sad but true

March 20th, 2007 by calinescuvm

” The Formula One season used to be full of life. Now its just a bunch of characterless clones racing around the track.
‘Michael Schumacher may well have been the greatest driver of his generation or possibly ever. But he was so, so terribly dull’
Formula One has died for me. My peak of enjoyment was seeing the Brazilian Grand Prix live some years ago. Already by then my interest was waining but that live performance in the rain jerked my interest back to life.

A year before, I would have known everything. Every rule change, every driver move, when the new aerodynamic packages were due and who had designed them. I knew the names of engineers working to develop engines and when they moved between teams. I knew what an idiot and liability Murray Walker had become as senility took hold and that he had to, loved as he was, go.

The problem, as it happens, is that the personality has been systematically weeded out of the sport. No Eddie Jordan, no Jean Alesi, no Aryton Senna, no Eddie Irvine, no one actually any fun. A bunch of clones, essentially, with every word censored by sponsors where a little misbehaviour out of the cockpit gets a driver dropped so fast it makes the cars going down the main straight look pedestrian.”

No pilots. No real racing. I’m sad.

Who’s your idol?

February 22nd, 2007 by calinescuvm

I was a Schumacher fan! I didn’t hate any pilot, like others so called “fans”. I was happy when Schuey wins but i didn’t like when he was wining without some fight, some emotions..
Anyway, now i’m confused. I am nobody’s fan. I want an idol in formula one! There are no pilots from my country in formula one. of course, there is Renault, who owns the auto factory where they make the great car LOGAN, but I don’t know..Fisichella?hmmmm…Heikki Kovalainen?? I have to see Keikki in his first race to say, he is young, got a good car..Heikki do impress me!
Ferrari: I like Kimi very much, I think he is a very good pilot, he get drunk and fall in his head:d he could have a chance. Massa dissapointed me in his first year in formula one, he was my second favourite after Schumi. He need to show me that he have “balls”:D
Now, from Mclaren. I like McLaren , they have a beautyfull car:) i remember a few years ago, there was a auto-show and exposed one Mclaren besides a Ferrari. Damn that Ferrari it was so ugly:D But the McLaren car a beauty! Well, Alonso no! But if Lewis Hamilton beats Alonso, maybe I’ll take second look to Lewis.
There is one more pilot that i’ll watch for him in first races: Nico Rosberg. Last year, in the beginning of the championship he was my revelation. But he lost it i the next races..
Here is a picture with my Schumacher t-shirt, wonder what colour it will be the next t-shirt?

Montoya in Nascar, saying bad things about F1

February 14th, 2007 by calinescuvm

montoya_nascar32.jpg
So, Montoya will race in Nascar this year. He wasn’t very popular in F1 while he was racing Bmw and McLaren and now the F1 fans have one more reason not to love him: “In Formula 1, it’s 90 percent the car and 10 percent the driver,” he says. “In NASCAR, if the car doesn’t handle well, you don’t do good but you can fix it the next weekend. If you’re in the wrong car in F1, you’ll (stink) all year”.
So I think he was in the wrong McLaren!

2007 F1 championship:from beginning to the end

February 11th, 2007 by calinescuvm

JANUARY
Pre-season testing continues in Spain. Toyota are one team encouraged by their winter progress and state that they will be looking for wins this season and the title the next. David Coulthard starts to press Red Bull for a decision on his 2008 race contract. Meanwhile, over in the United States, Juan Pablo Montoya surprises everybody by leaving NASCAR for a return to Champcars after an injury sustained playing snooker causes friction with his team.

FEBRUARY.
Michael Schumacher happens to remark to Corinna over breakfast that he will miss racing in 2007. This immediately convinces the motorsport media that Schuey is considering a comeback. By tea-time he is strongly linked to at least seven teams.
In Monte Carlo, disaster strikes the Red Bull / Torro Rosso launch, a typically understated affair, when Scott Speed is accidenatlly flattened by one of the 22 elephants brought in for the event.

MARCH.
The season opener in Australia is won at a canter by a surprised Anthony Davidson, after the rest of the field is eliminated on the first lap by a spinning Kimi Raikkonen, after the unfortunate Finn gets his wallet jammed under his Ferrari’s brake pedal.
Toyota say that 2007 is to be a year of consolidation for them and that they will be looking for wins in 2008 and the title in 2009.

APRIL
Fernando Alonso wins the Malaysian Grand Prix, but is disqualified after a protest by ex-boss, Flavio Briatore, who finds a hidden clause in the Spaniards old Renault contract forbidding him from winning for another team.
Montoya hits the headlines again, saying that ‘Champcars isn’t what it used to be’ before defecting to the IRL.

MAY
During scrutineering at the Spanish Grand Prix, the ‘customer car’ row erupts again as Super Aguri are disqualified after it is discovered that the SA07 is almost entirely based on a Honda Accord, thus explaining its bullet proof reliability.
Meanwhile, at Monaco,there is to be no repeat of the ‘Rascassegate’ parking scandal, as it is revealed that race organisers have erected ‘no parking’ signs and have painted double yellow lines around the entire track.

JUNE.
There are wild scenes on the streets of Poland, as Robert Kubica wins the Canadian Grand Prix. Sadly, Kubica causes a riot in Montreal of the wrong kind, when he makes a sarcastic comment in the press conference about local boy, Jacques Villeneuve’s new album ‘Too slow for zero’. Meanwhile in France, Juan Pablo Montoya, fed up with the IRL, turns up at Le Mans to launch his sportscar career with a crack at the legendary 24 hours race.

JULY.
It’s a dream day for Lewis Hamilton as he wins his debut British GP for McLaren, causing Jenson Button, in his eighth attempt at it, to go off in an almighty sulk. Sadly at the German GP, local fans are missing Michael Schumacher’s presence, and even though there are four other Germans still in F1, only three Adrian Sutil fans and a handful of security guards turn up at the event.

AUGUST.
For the second year running, the organizers of the Turkish Grand Prix are embroiled in a diplomatic row when they invite Vlad the Impaler and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to present the trophies. The faux pas is later described as an ‘innocent mistake’, but the FIA are not happy and confiscate Istanbul as punishment.
Juan Pablo finally finishes the Le Mans 24 hours, which did not go to plan when he accidentally turned onto the N34 on lap 12, and then got stuck in the infamous Rouen one way system. He joins the World Rally Championship in protest.

SEPTEMBER.
The Belgian round at Spa is sensationally won by Michael Schumacher, who, at Bernie Ecclestones request, is guesting in the Safety Car. Schuey later jokes that for years the drivers have been moaning about the Safety Car being too slow, so he thought he’d give them something else to moan about.

OCTOBER.
A three way title decider at the Brazilian Grand Prix between Kimi Raikkonen, Jenson Button and Felipe Massa is won by the Brazilian star. Brazil, which is an excitable place at the best of times, explodes.
After deciding that rallying is ‘too muddy’, JPM announces that he will be returning to F1 in 2008 and is in discussions with several teams.
