Not much to say about the race, but I thought that the Red Bull team had a really cool pit crew helmet & overalls in conjuction with them advertising the new Star Wars film:

I watched the GP today, wish I'd been there in person!

Great touch by Mr Lucas & Red Bull, sorry lads, the films still crap imo.  :P

I'm surprised you think its crap Scania. I am not an fan of star wars and found it an amazing film. bit long but still amazing.

As for the grand prix? It was Monaco, was it the best ever? not even close but at least the end was exciting. It was pretty cool having Buttons point of view though and the whole show was saved by the man himself Murray Walker ;D ;D

With a perfect mix of bad acting, over-done computer graphics and dialogue more wooden than the entire forest world of Endor, the revenge of the sith is already pure torture.

Episodes 1 and 2 of Star Wars are poorly acted, poorly scripted, poorly executed rubbish and an insult to the brilliant original films.  ;)

The best of the prequels, trouble is, the prequels - all of them - in my eyes were awful.

To Quote Mark kermode, Film reviewer @ BBC Radio 5 Live, "A Franchise out of control"


Believe me mate, I am an avid fan of Star Wars, but, I wish George Lucas would move on and stop trying to "recreate the magic"  >:(

Ah well, at least the next Lucas film should be good, all about the Tuskeegee Airmen...

I think the problem is, some fans have it all built up in their head how they wanted to begin. How Vader came to be and so on. Now they have revealed it in the way they have i'm sure there are bound to be some upset people. i must admit the first two were just fillers to get to this movie and were pretty crap.

Well I still haven't got to see the film (mainly as I'm waiting to find somewhere I can see it in English! So I'll probably see it in about 6 months time when the hype has died down), but even when I was at primary school we all knew Darth Vader had fallen into some lava to get cooked like that, George Lucas did reveal some of the secrets in an interview after the release of Empire or Jedi (I can't remember which).
Have any of you read Ralfs comments about his brother today? Not nice at all, but entirely fair I think :)

Ralf and Michael have always been bitchy towards each other on the track. For whatever reason Ralf seems to think its wrong for Michael to pass him and Michael seems to think its wrong to not try and collide with Ralf. There like two little kids on the track. I can understand Rubens complaints though, but its racing if you can pass and theres no real risk why not. Sadly they didnt show the move as the director thought it was better to watch a certain winner rather than a crucial battle. ::) Must say those poor renaults and their tyres were surprising.

Its called Family !

You can pick your friends.........


I know of few brothers that don't fight like cat & dog, such competitive types as they no doubt are, I find their little on-track spats unsurprising.
