Sorry, but you should tell Mr. Leo Perante to not *comment* on politics in his videos, if you do not want to see political *responses* in his 'F1 racing' YouTube comment area!
Anyway, it's sad that the American F1 team didn't make it this year. I heard that they tried to do everything "in-house," (in America) of which I also believe no team does entirely with their own cars.
You people are taking his opening comments too seriously, maybe Bush did or maybe he didn't like black people; Iraq war is a big lie, Bush killed Saddam because he can, Bush thinks God told him to go to Iraq, Bush is a piece of shit, what does it matter? We are talking about cars and let's keep it like that.
I have always followed these races. I didn't know about those many changes with the tires...Fernando won the first race! I want him to go one on one again with Mercedes...
it just seems u do more bashing than saying how driving in circles is actually a challenge. but i do agree with u on the carl edwards stance he doesnt care about anything but his own ego
Fair enough. But, I NEVER say the driving [in circles] is easy. On earlier SD about sim racing, I called the viewers out to try it and see there IS skill needed.
My issues go beyond the talent of the teams / drivers. It's a systemic issue with NASCAR and its mgt of the racing, the show, and how the latter overshadows the former.
PS- If the script opening for this Friday stays the way I envision, I will give you another NASCAR 'show-1st' example.
@ LeonParental: George W Bush has stated he enjoys chocolate pie in spring. He may have even banged a negro chick in college, if memory serves me. Boo yah!
Well, the intelligence had told him that Iraq was attempting to build them. Also, did you ever think that the Iraqi's might have destroyed the WMD equipment once they saw that we wanted to send in investigaters to check?
Why do you think Saddam STALLED the UN insepecters for so long? Bush got sick of it and went in with our military... and most likely too late.
So, there's much more to it than what your dumbass libtards are saying. You can fool people no in the know, but not moi. ;)
@Northax I agree to a point, i think Saddam should have been thrown from power but i think its a shame that the U.S. has to step in all the time when dictators are screwing up the world and then we get a bad name because of it. It happened in WWII, Vietnam, Korea, Mogadishu and soo many other conflicts. I think for once we should sit on the sidelines and let these despots tear each other apart for a while and watch everyone whine that were not doing anything about it.
i was surprised to see how close the top 3 raced until the Header cracked, i surely thought that it would be more spread out. Melbourne is gonna be sweet. 1997 all over again.
And on this day there was no tire strategy 2 help mix it up. Once leaders decided the stop count and they got 2 half way, seems stop options were off the table.
Fans expected 2 wait 2 see if more familitarity with tires will allow more strategy. The pontential great ending WAS dashed when Vettel lost his exhaust, BUT....
When all the drivers speak about waiting to go fast and hint at strategy processions..... We'll see.
exactly, if the leader pitted, everyone else would just stay out and if he didn't the teams following wouldn't anyway because they would lose more ground. Some tracks coming up will be harder on tyres and maybe Bridgestone will make the softs a little softer so there is a bigger gap between Prime and option tyre performance. That will bring more strategy to the table.
Would be like me saying you Brits just get pissed all day and lament it's no longer World War 2 and Great Britian is longer King of the World! See that's not fair.
And then I see you have a vanquished WW2 German Tiger tank on your YT home page! Oops.
Next wk I preview Sebring / sportscar racing. I can rip on old man Mansel and his over-the-hill shot at the LM24 to snap you, again!
Just joking. Was a Nige Lione fan + he named his kid Leo!
stfu you little shit your not fan, i get up at 5 or 4 am just to watcha race thats a fan heck i went to spa last summer thats a fan you your probably to poor to attend the races btw goldstand baby
Leo I couldn't get my ass up a 4am to watch Alanso win, Mostly because I don't own a tv and have no clue who is a reliable source for streaming. So who do you suggest to watch racing online?
I was raised from day one to be a Scuderia Ferrari fan. Ferrari will always be number one in my heart. Even if USF1 somehow miraculously came together, I would still pull for Ferrari, no matter what.
I'm going to watch the first race and if its still impossible for the reasonably faster car to make a pass I quit F1 forever. It was literally a snooze fest for me last season.
you know... thanks to this show I'm slowly starting to see that different teams cars in F1 are VERY different... they all looked the same to me when I had SD TV and caught a few laps here and there... an on the fly, driver adjustable front flap? crazy stuff.
You guys at FLD are really gonna make me start paying attention to F1 and WRX aren't you? Well good on ya for that. I'd like to see some WRX racing through the Santa Cruz mountains in California and I think it'd be super cool if they did an F1 race in Vegas. I think an F1 race at Infineon wouldn't be a bad thing either.
Formula 1 annoys me... Give everyone the same car, let them refuel and give them the best tyres! Then we'll see who the best driver is! There's too many rules now and it's just got boring to watch, bring back Mika Hakinen and the old Schumacher days!
I agree that NASCAR has become too safe. Looking at old racing videos from before the 80's, I can see that those type of races, with those cars would've been fun. Take Group B in WRC Rally Racing. Those cars really took skill to master.
NASCAR just sucks!!! how long will it take untill America realize it??!! I mean...3hours of running in circles!!! thats bullshitt!!!! take a look at aussie stock car races... and learn something!!! Jesus!!
You are definitely getting better at these Shakedowns...
By far one of the entertaining episodes yet...
and yeah, I think you should make a video explaining more about how rear wings work and why certain teams choose different styles and patterns for their cars
the line "George Bush doesn't like black people" is taken from one of Kanye West's spiels. One time he got on national, live television and said that out of the blue
Beat me 2 the contextual explanation. It was my topical way 2 get 2 the point that Carl came back on track without any interest in racing.
While it was a joke / setup, a] It may not have been brilliant writing, b] Knew it had the possilbity 2 be polarizing 2 the politico's and c] Rest assured, my dislike of GB has nothing 2 do with race!
But, if we can't still 'all get along' even with political differences, then we are doomed as a country. Still see you next week?
ps: im still pissed about the 2009 sebrings race where corvette got robbed because a dick driver in the Porsche pulled a Carl Edwards move cause he couldn't take a bump and run! with a guy that was faster.
ONE more thing hey heres and idea why dont you guys do a show about wings and the different types and how they help or hurt racing. plus maybe talk about how lesser or no downforce implemented with these cars could make better or worse racing in the racing world (yes that includes nascar along with alms, F1 wrc)
hahah hey leo check this out. carl edwards is all about respect matter fact all the drivers are and he felt the respect from brad wasn't their. why? because of him being taken out 4 times by Brad. so he went out just too nudge him through the grass too send a message, unfortunatly he instead went airborne; which some blames on the wings, and the angle the car was pointing at from behind with airflow diving under it.
the point is, well thats payback and its a history of nascar.
matter fact its not just nascar, hell you can go too alms and btcc(did i tell you how much i like this series), wtcc and any other racing series with cars having 4 corners and you will find their has been and will be payback their too.
and hey this f1 year is gonna be pretty good with F1 trying to get more passing due too different tire statuses and strategy for the start of the race due too qualifying.
Carl Edwards is a quality nascar driver with an old school way of handling his problems. If you paid any attention to car news you'd know that he was trying to spin him not flip him. Why don't you do your homework before next time so we don't have to listen to your confusing arrogant crap
Please. Carl went back on track with only 1 agenda - 2 crash the guy. Yes, Brad's bad. Yes, in an earlier SD I even spoke 2 Senna's style to 'mark turf' to not be pushed around.
But, let me put it in terms you may understand - Ask yourself this - Would Dale Sr., Richard, or Lorenzen have done it that way? Cale, sure. But, not those guys. Hell, it may not have even been on-track, but fist-to-face!
And this 'meant 2 spin him not fly him' defense is BS, too. @ 190mph, he knew, IMO.
i loved this shakedown. i love f1, i love redbull, i love corvettes (can't wait for sebring!) and i love FLD shakedowns. please keep the good times rollin'
Mmmmm, I'm hoping for McLaren, being British and all. But I really don't know? I just hope for a WAY less controversial year this time and please, less cheating?
I'm a Carl Edwards fan, but that was wrong what he did. I've always though Bahrain was an exciting course. Nice starategy for the "Fantastic Four" you mentioned. Formula 1 always interests me in technology and trying to develop cars to meet the rule book (and even finding loopholes in the rules). I try to watch F1, but I think I'll REALLY try to follow F1 this season. It's going to be a wild ride for sure, Leo Parente. Amazing insight, as always.
This is gonna be a good year! I predict its going to be a slugfest all year long with no clear favorites till the end.
However the telling race will always be Moncao in my opinion. That track never changes and its just so damn hard on cars and drivers. But maybe I'm wrong, whats your take on which race will be the one that will be the one that really tells us who has the potential to win drivers or manufacturers' titles this year Leo?
Excellent show leo. My prediction is a close finish between mclaren and red bull with hamilton just edging it. Like youve stated, its gonna come down to stratergy and who can figure out whats best the quickest.
Im not expecting miracles but it looks like force india will continue to progress and we'll see what mercedes do with their super duper disffuser!
I'm thinking McLaren vs Merc, McLaren has the young talent and the previous 2 champs but Merc has experience (Brawn, Nico, Schumi) Not much to say about Red Bull and Ferrari, Ferrari has been inconsistent in the past but Red Bull is a wild card in series as always (won 6 last year vs. Brawn's 9) The top podium in constructor's is going to be very interesting. Don't count Lotus F1 out for a victory though, just my two cents.
Great summary of the rules and what we could expect from this weekend's Grand Prix.
Back to the Formula 1 cycle where I constantly record the races on my DVR (which I have to clean out every week since the hard drive always gets filled).

Please. Carl went back on track with only 1 agenda - 2 crash the guy. Yes, Brad's bad. Yes, in an earlier SD I even spoke 2 Senna's style to 'mark turf' to not be pushed around.
But, let me put it in terms you may understand - Ask yourself this - Would Dale Sr., Richard, or Lorenzen have done it that way? Cale, sure. But, not those guys. Hell, it may not have even been on-track, but fist-to-face!
And this 'meant 2 spin him not fly him' defense is BS, too. @ 190mph, he knew, IMO.

I'm a Carl Edwards fan, but that was wrong what he did. I've always though Bahrain was an exciting course. Nice starategy for the "Fantastic Four" you mentioned. Formula 1 always interests me in technology and trying to develop cars to meet the rule book (and even finding loopholes in the rules). I try to watch F1, but I think I'll REALLY try to follow F1 this season. It's going to be a wild ride for sure, Leo Parente. Amazing insight, as always.

This is gonna be a good year! I predict its going to be a slugfest all year long with no clear favorites till the end.
However the telling race will always be Moncao in my opinion. That track never changes and its just so damn hard on cars and drivers. But maybe I'm wrong, whats your take on which race will be the one that will be the one that really tells us who has the potential to win drivers or manufacturers' titles this year Leo?

Excellent show leo. My prediction is a close finish between mclaren and red bull with hamilton just edging it. Like youve stated, its gonna come down to stratergy and who can figure out whats best the quickest.
Im not expecting miracles but it looks like force india will continue to progress and we'll see what mercedes do with their super duper disffuser!
Huziej4b 1 year ago
I'm thinking McLaren vs Merc, McLaren has the young talent and the previous 2 champs but Merc has experience (Brawn, Nico, Schumi) Not much to say about Red Bull and Ferrari, Ferrari has been inconsistent in the past but Red Bull is a wild card in series as always (won 6 last year vs. Brawn's 9) The top podium in constructor's is going to be very interesting. Don't count Lotus F1 out for a victory though, just my two cents.

RBR had reliability problems today a day for qualifying.
2010 is not going to be Vettel's year despite coming so close last year.
2010 is in the bag for Hamilton. Before I'd say it was too close to call.
Now I'd say the 2010 championship is Hamilton's to lose.

Great summary of the rules and what we could expect from this weekend's Grand Prix.
Back to the Formula 1 cycle where I constantly record the races on my DVR (which I have to clean out every week since the hard drive always gets filled).
