The Official 2010 Formula One Thread
 

New year, new thread.

ty, sir! For xmas last year my kids got me a subscription to F1 mag. I was reading some last night of the season review, LookHowBadYouAre (luca badoer) interview was interesting.

So lets talk about open cockpits:

Newcomer Argentine driver is rumored to be one of the two drivers at USF1. Lopez, former Formula Renault Champion, and currently testing F3 cars, supposedly in preparation for F1.

And don't forget about June 13th Montreal F1 meet-up!

I am liking that schumi/rosberg team

One plus of Chad Hurley involved with USF1 is there will be lots of videos of stuff we don't normally get to see. Here's the video of the (successful) crash test of their car's nose.

I figured this was as good a place as any to post this.

McLaren have gone a little nuts with their diffuser. It's way more than a double diffuser.
