unless you are in a blimp--TV is sadly always better coverage, montreal is also know for not having a lot of places to see a clear view of the track and grandstand seats is like sitting in one stadium only during the Olympics...--in other fantastic news---KIMI passed Alonso this past weekend--translation for all you forza italia folks--Ferrari got spanked but lotus driven by alonsos teammate for next year--this is gonna be good

you think its hard to see anything in montreal you should see Monaco...

This was my view at turn 7 beside grandstand 33

Hey that would be nice but that track could not support modern day F1, unless they sink MILLIONS into it. But it is great for superbike races. Will be curious to see if they get New Jersey up and ready for next year... it is on the schedule.

 

[remyboy1]

would be cool for sure--

have you seen mosport in the last few years?

Last time I was there was 2010 for Canadian super bike races.

Canadian tire got involved a few years back and from what I hear they are dumping money into it and already have dumped a lot to be able to bid for a spot in the formula one calendar

Interesting....I did not know that, I would think that the pits are not up to F1 standards ( tach wise ). Also I always heard that pit lane there could not accommodate modern F1, the pit lane plus entrance/exit is not long enough. Also there are safety issues with run off etc...etc...

But would love to see the come back, that track has ALOT of racing history.

That being said last weekends race in Korea was sad ... to turn out is terrible, only one support race all weekend. I believe that race will not be on the calendar in the next year or two. Also I do not see the New Jersey street course being ready for next year.

Koreans don't go nuts for F1 for some reason--most other Asians venues are F1 nutsos--but the sad part is we have another german dominating--even lewis said it and I quote "its like F1 when I was younger I would wake up to see the start and then go back to bed until the last lap because I knew the outcome already" <<this is tragic for F1--need an even playing fiels--next year when turbo and Honda come back it will all change

I don't know...... Red Bull has so much money and they have come forward and said they want to beat all current F1 records, I feel they will still be the dominate force in F1, but with the changes, some of the teams will start to catch up, it should be a interesting year.

Also with the new weight restrictions we will see a few taller/bigger drivers not in the sport anymore, Hulkenberg is a great driver and should be given a chance in a top car but teams (maclearn) already said because or the weight issue and his size they would not consider him.

On a side note I hope Maclearn/Honda go back to the classic red white paint job.

 

[remyboy1]

hulkenburg will drive for lotus next year I bet--and if Honda/McLaren do the colors of senna I will fly to Monaco for that rce for sure

and mark my words KIMI is gonna wipe the curbs with Alonso--keeping in mind for me this is an ideal situation--my two fave drivers--the two best drivers on the track on one team fighting for the pecking order...awesome stuff right there expect some ferarri on Ferrari rubbin next year

With this I agree! Kimi is one of my favs, I also think if he does well you might see Alonso back at Maclearn in 2015, I know they have been trying very hard to get him back in their car.

But Ferrari defiantly have the two best driver in F1 now.

 

[remyboy1]

vettel is like shumi--perfect car--huge budget-put him in a marussia and he will be line kimi in the lotus--no 100 point lead in the championship--I know he is good but the car and team make a huge difference--the tire changers take ballet for cryin out loud --so they are more nimble hopping around hoses and stuff..only at redbull..lol

 

[BASSMASTER19]

they should have a random draw where all the cars get switched up between teams.....that would be fun but then again i haven seen a race since last year
