remove everything electronic on the cars, make them drive real pure mechanical machines, and bring back v10's. then we will have a race not just a procession behind a redbull. also allow movable aero, it makes it harder to drive therefore better racing, therefore more exciting
@juvenaldamasceno itll be like indy500? i think forula1 should be the best of the best. the best engines the best technology(even tho it was so entertaining in the past we should still move on) the 3.0 v10 should be in those cars though !!!!!!!!!!!

@Villeneuve27 if i may advise you. go to spa while the fia gt1 is there, go there the whole week, be there at the unpacking day. you can get literally everywhere, i walked on the cirquit and eau rouge itself, and i walked in the pitlane making conversations with all the drivers and mechanics and touched all the cars like lambo lp670-sv-gt-r. completely free. i did this, it was amazing. i can send you pics so you can see how you can get everywhere. best. track. ever.
@Lectrotraxx i know but not formula races, this is closest to the experience of the sound ( maybe even better) and the richdom and the whole circus behind it
can I use your word to express my feeling about Portuguese WRC round ?!
They move it to the south were people don't know what's rally... You can easily see more people on the roads for the National Rally in the North, than in the WRC event on the South!!! Hotels, Swimming pools and Golf, Hotter, everything FIA people need to be happy!!
Schumacher was the first one to make Eau Rouge flat out in his earlier days. Today it's not problem. The 2008 cars can drive it easily flat out. With the 2009 cars it might be a bigger challange.
With the new V8 engines, F1 are able to do Eau Rouge at full throttle. If you go on the official F1 site , in the video-on boards section, you can watch a Hamilton's 2008 onboard (his pole lap), you will see him doing Eau Rouge flat out.
what are you guys sayin have you ever driven there ? actualy stand before the corner walked upon it ? after you walk up there the track takes a lil left now and it go's a lil downhill for like 10 meter and then a flat straight full speed is impossible they actualy have to let go of the gas a bit until they reach the line and then flat out in the outcome. been there alot of times. a toyota driver tried it in 2004 and failed pretty hard
that was cool. this gives me a taste of what it would sound like and look like if I was at one of these f1 events someday :D . also the super aguri sounds so much slower than the mclaren. and go lewis hamilton!!
Both the Aguri and Honda were by far the loudest/shrillest of the cars this year and last year (2008, 2007), I think Rossiter was just not pushing it very hard. If you do plan on hitting up a F1 event, DO IT! It is awesome. You wont believe how loud they really are. Don't wear earplugs ;) Loud but worth it!
hey man on a different subject, there is an f1 racing game for the playstation 3. I bought it and the honda engines are the loudest and the most different sounding ones lol. Anyway lol. Yeah I keep hearing that my father and my firends have gone and they say nothing but good things.But they always talk about the sounds lol. what gp did u go to? .
I've been to the Canadian GP three times, the US GP once and this summer I will be going to the Belgian GP as well. Thats really interesting that the Hondas in the PS3 game are so loud and unique, they must have really done their homework... lucky folks!
oh really where are you from?. I am canadian and it was a dream of mine to go to the canadian gp. obviously those dreams are shattered for now :\ . Well don't lose your lunch when you look at the new 09 cars first hand :P . They are horrible.
Yea the game is pretty good . Ea sports had full intentions of making a perfect f1 game but it's lacking a few things :\ . Look up " f1 ce " right here on youtube. It's a fun game :D .
Well, I am from Seattle but I have spent a LOT of time out in Montreal over the past few years. I think you will be able to see a GP somewhere in North America in the next few years. Especially with the USF1 team announced. Yeah, the new cars don't look so great. They had better perform thats all I can say. All these regulation changes better not be for nothing. Hope you get to see a GP sometime soon! Take care.
yes good point. But racing in north america is gone as of now so... have to wait and see what happens in the future. It would have been nice to see those new cars racing around montreal. at gilles circuit.
People make such a big deal about TC. The drivers say there is little difference and they're right. They're all skilled. They are all generally faster without TC this year than last year. And Eau Rouge is an absolute nothing in a Formula 1 car these days after a few laps. It is easy flat. TC isn't even needed there because there is so much downforce.
I reckon people are thinking about the exit as it comes over the crest, maybe loss of traction making the wheels spin? Even so, you're right about the amount of downforce. Spa is quite a high df circuit anyway.
No, you're wrong, Brainman. Eau Rouge is easy flat no matter TC or no TC. They need less downforce and V10 power for it to be a challenge again. Now it is just an amazing thrill for the driver (as opposed to being a challenging thrill).
It's more than likely that as in 2005, when downforce was reduced by 25-30%, the teams will find ways to lessen the deficit. That's what destroyed the racing even more...
well apparantly mosely is insisting they actually cut the downforce hugely this time. It shouldnt be that hard to do it. GP2 is where its at anyway, pity about the standard of drivers in it though.
They need a TV cam there.
