Sorry to say but on full size GP circuits I tend to prefer to watch it on TV.. DO though go to a lot of the smaller tracks for BTCC or other british series

it's a great experience and I loved my first GP even though I was only young and could barely see anything :D

It is a bit strange as you do spend some time watching it on the big screens to work out what is going on but well worth the effort

Yeah it looks pretty if not spectacular IMO, than again I bet it will change before the first race.

A great article from SCARBS speculating how the new 2011 rules could be implemented by the teams.

As a technical journalist he is not often far wrong !! :)

Some nice looking cars :)

Interested to see how Renault's exhaust blown front diffuser works, they said they were doing something radical and no one knows how the exhaust exits as it is hiding :)

getting all excited now

Not sure I like the Mercedes nose? I liked the pointy look of the Virgin last year

Alot seem to be going for quite a high nose.
Can't wait for the Mclaren on Friday but the cars we see now won't look the same come Bahrain.
Only 37 days :)
