Re: F1 USA GP
 

Care to fill us in on what happened?

Re: F1 USA GP
 

There is usually 20 cars/race. Now 14 drivers(including F1 serie leaders) decided they wont start to the race because of some tyre-problems.
So now there is 6 cars going around the circuit for 73 laps..
Most of the watchers have allready left the circuit..

Re: F1 USA GP
 

just read the story on espn.

something about michelin gave a warning to not race, that their tires were a danger. the only cars running are on bridgestone tires i believe.

seems ridiculous.

Re: F1 USA GP
 

Does Bernie just not care about the US market? I mean, if you're going to allow a race to run with 6 cars, what does he think is going to happen? This sets F1 back probably 20 years in the US market. HAhahahah I just heard that Bernie left the track with 20 laps left. The French affiliate has already switched off the race.

#2 or #3 in attendence for the entire F1 season. Truthfully I think it's smart that Bernie left because he is going to get murdered if he gets caught leaving by the fans.

This is so ridiculous.

This is the most entertaining race I've seen in a long time. No presenters for the podium. The crowd booing the winners and chanting F1 sucks at the presentation. HALF THE STARTING DRIVERS ARE ON THE PODIUM.

$800 on tickets wasted. My ticket was $85.

F1 is the greatest racing sport IMO. Yet only 1/3 people from that track are from Indiana. [censored] [censored] [censored]. It was much worse than on TV. People were throwing beer cans on the track. My brother watched one of them hit a car zooming by. I feel bad for Tony George. I really wanted F1 to take off in the US. [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored]

Also [censored] the president of the F1 and his stupid [censored] rules.

BTW the crowd was yelling very loudly "BULLSHIT BULLSHIT" throughout the race. The news doesn't show how upset the crowd was. We left early.

On a side note:

After a lengthy morning meeting, nine of the 10 F-1 teams said they would only compete if the chicane was put in place. Ferrari, which fields cars for Michael Schumacher and Rubens Barrichello, was the only team to refuse the chicane.

Linky

I can understand Ferrari's position because F1 really screwed them and Bridgestone's softer tire compound with their new rules. Still, somebody should of given in. I can NOT believe the president of F1 didn't budge. This is so bad. Most of the people there were europeans. They flew across the planet just for this race.
