Everyone else gets an official thread, so I want one too.
I've seen several people make mentions of F1 on here. So, I'm giving us a thread. No more Speed bs coverage. NBC looks like they are taking it serious and will have some good coverage.
With DVRs now, it's no longer a pain in the ass to watch the races. So watch them and discuss
And if you don't watch F1. You suck. Best racing on the planet.

J.C...Missed the crash - caught it at the end on replay - However, these cars carry too much speed to be racing on this ancient oval /round circuit ...
I remember Michael Schumacher saying years ago that drivers have to be crazy to race open wheel at Indy 500 - There is no run-off - nothing...
I remember one year Formula 1 drivers boycotted right before of the race because of tire compound and safety issues - They never went back - They left the fans sitting in their seats...F1 now races at the beautiful COTA in the U.S. [Reply]
I keep turning the channel - When I turn back to Indy, there is a safety car on the track. The only reason I am watching is to see two-time F1 champion Alonso sit in that God-awful IndyCar.
This is the first time Alonso has stepped into an IndyCar and he is running second with a bad road crew - Looks like his pit crew are rookies - no?
Oh boy, bad restart for Alonso and he drops to P12 - Could spell trouble for Alonso now he is in a pack that races like amateurs.
God Bless Alonso come back to Formula 1 - This sport is way beneath his racing talent...Oops another caution.
Too bad McLaren Honda F1 car sucks - This is the reason Alonso did not race in Monaco today and hopped into a Honda IndyCar.

That was AMAZING. Don't think I've ever seen so much air under a car [even the famous Mercedes flip of a few years back that resulted in the undercarriage rule change]
Scarier even than the bassackwards landing on the safety cell wall was the landing flush on the cockpit protection triangle right after.
*Worst crash I've seen there in 30 years. Shocked Dixon survived.
*Awesome for Sato
*Alonso is a f**** stud. Looked to the crowd after getting out, raised his arms and got a standing O [Reply]
