Glad to see 'The Doorknob' finally breaking into the actual race team, having been the third driver at Jordan for so long, he didn't do badly for a first proper race IMO, he could have done better though. Terrible luck for Raikkonen, when was the last time he actually completed a race at Hockenheim? Has he ever?

Its Albers aswell, not Alberts

The German director was a bit crap wasn't he? He kept missing all the good stuff and having to replay it afterwards

[hyyyper]

a always type albets, dunno why, prob because i'm always typing like a train...

nice nickname by the way: Doorknob [:D]

btw, about the qualitlyliing (srry) i loved that drift of montoya

Kimi just is a "shmack" as my dad likes to say. Hes ok, not that great.

The old Hockenheim circuit used to kick ass, the new one is no way as good.

Yeah, those long straight aways were awesome.

Raikonnen wasnt to blame, he would have won the race by a long way if he had not had the engine failure. I think McLaren wwere unlucky, even if Montoyas Spin in Qualifying was a driver error.

We dont need hockenheim, we need the Nuremberg Ring back. 13 miles of insanity!! LOL

Track would need so much work for those cars to drive on, but if it was, that would be incredible.

if you mean the N?????????rnbergRing, it's the european grand prix.

They only use the infield portion of track though hyyyper.

I really want to goto the N?????????rnbergRing one day and take some laps. I think its awesome how that place works, how anyone with any car, truck, motorcycle, etc can just show up and take some laps.

My opinnion, as Finnish person is that I think that R?????????ikk?????????nen is really talented driver who is just in a wrong team! Is it R?????????ikk?????????nen's fault if his engine brokes in every competition?? No!


FN: Yeah, they can but I think it isn't too cheap [;)].

The prices arn't too bad actually;

Lap fees 2005 (please note the special arrangements for the 5-lap tickets*)
24-lap ticket car 300.00 ?????????
12-lap ticket car 155.00 ?????????
6-lap ticket car 80.00 ?????????
5-lap ticket car * 60.00* ?????????
24-lap ticket motorcycle 300.00 ?????????
12-lap ticket motorcycle 155.00 ?????????
6-lap ticket motorcycle 80.00 ?????????
5-lap ticket motorcycle * 60.00* ?????????

You can rent time on the old track?

If so I am SOO there if I ever go to Europe. Its 13 miles long!!!! Just 2 laps would suffice for me.

Yeah, i remember them going there on 'Top Gear' (UK Car Show) and racing round during free lap times. He just about managed to beat 10 minutes of his 20th lap Then a female driver came along and did it in 9

What were they in?!!! You need an exotic car to run times under 12minutes.

Top Gear has come to the states on Discovery Channel. I am SOOO Happy...

Top Gear is such an awesome show. My favorite episode is of course the one where the guy test the McLaren F1. [worship] It hasn't made its way onto Discovery Canada, yet, but has been running on Speed for a few years. My dad is on Discovery Canada for car stuff though [:D]

@Real - Yeah you can purchase laps. It is basically like a giant go cart track. You buy laps and you go lol

[gouldy]

they did it in a Diesel . Also, that female person, said that she could do the Top Gear presenters lap time in a van, and so, this year top gear went back there and she tried to beat 10 minutes in a van ...... she did 10:08 or something like that, but this is a van we're talking about, very impressive heh heh.

She should try it in this van.....

............ Oh God.

The guy in FN's post has ruined a perfectly good Honda, whats up with that?

Edge, that Super Nova is the ultimate chav car, as in, find the shitest car you can and then shove as much crap on there as possible . I wasn't looking at that though, theres a Subaru Impreza in the background that I was more interested in

Look at this...

That things gotta be made out of cardboard

Ive seen most of those before and thats another classic!

Why? Because it mocks all those lamers who feel its nessicary to throw a huge wing on the back of their car. 95%of these people dont even race, let alone get their car up to a speed where the wing makes a difference. Its all just looks and that car is just making a mockery of it, which is hilarious.

Check out those foil rims!!
