Looking forward to the action...
Looks like merc already have an advantage - they're using wind-up power to supplement the hybrid system... check out the big winder key sticking out the back...

But Moto gp is in a different league for action and excitement,not to mention the passion for riding.
And I cant even ride a bike,nearly totalled my Raleigh grifter once that was enough for me

Doubt I will be following it much, its not about the driver anymore so have lost interest, prefer Touring Cars as much as anything.

Whether its touring cars or gp I think the point is we enjoy the actual racing and F1 has lost a lot of that,the wheel to wheel action is what its about.

Well so far so good. No big shake up faster cars, but they were not slow before. Looking forward to the race. Will there be any overtaking?

I had to laugh while listening to the radio today, the F1 advert said "the cars will be faster this year, with louder engines and wider tyres"

Even after the rule changes, and car upgrades. It's still the same three teams at the front.
Let's hope the race is better.
