we're just going to watch the replay at 1 and stay away from all froms of all worldly communications till then! my brother (also called Gav strangely enough) is far more F1 hardcore and will be watching live

[Iceman]

I have to watch cause I know I could easily get the results haha... even if it means being knackered for the weekend haha

[Kerry]

My OH watches it and follows it. I just tend to ask who won

[Shaun]

I used to be addicted to F1...back in 1997 LOL

Giancarlo Fisichella, Jean Alesi, Mika Hakkinen and Heinz-Harald Frentzen -bets they're all retired now-

yeah, my brother is like that too, two years ago himself and my hubby Gav went to watch the GP in silverstone and he entered a competition with vodafone where you had to do a race in a simulator and he won so the two of them got VIP passes to the pit lane and they met alonso and eddie jordan (also the vodafone version of the iphone) but yeah Gav knows everything about F1, it'd be funny actually you two having a conversation cos Ayrton Senna was his hero, he hated Schmacher!

well, schmacher had no real competition when Senna died. God, he was so upset when Senna died though

[Iceman]

Yeah the race shouldnt have happened after what went on in practice, just a tragi day, he would have been 51 this week.

[Shaun]

I remember this game of F1 I had on the N64, they had some driver for the Williams team simply called Williams - I guess they didn't want to include him.

It's very sad, one of Gavs defining moments I think as a teenager, for me it was Kurt Cobain and River Phoenix

lol, well we didn't have the internet, for me it was film and music, hence River Phoenix and Kurt(more so Kurt) for Gav F1 was everything so Senna dying was horrendous

[Iceman]

Yeah i get you, I suppose it would have had a huge affat if he was your favourote and that....

Also here's a brand new interview with Michael Shumacher, he's ****ing happy

Merc have the fastest car out there and they had problems in practice, McLaren not so much in Qualifying but definitely in the race, i think button will drop off completely this year, the only way for him is down.
