I have virgin and freeview in the house so i have no idea how i'm going to get the every full races :(

You can get pretty much every other Sky channel through Virgin so I would assume that you will be able to get the F1 channel (I f**king hope so, havent got round to phoning Virgin yet).

I'm also hoping the same, I've got the xl hd package with them but not sports. If they offer the same deal as sky I'll be fine :smiley:

ok mate  :grin:

HA!
The problem with Ferrari is Stephano Domenicali. They should bring back Jean Todt. Just like Mclaren should sack Whitmarsh and bring back Denis  :smiley:

In other news.

Poor old Robert, seems like he's too fragile to drive an F1 car...

Ferrari and Lotus have developed an innovative system. It doesn't change the ride height, it just keeps it level when under braking, meaning the nose won't dive, so they can run lower front ends without having to leave room for the "dive". Interesting to see how this one pans out. Declared legal too so it'll be the innovative feature of 2012.

Bruno Senna is favourite for Williams after one of Brazil's wealthiest men, who sponsors Bruno Senna, released a statement saying "Senna will race in F1 in 2012".

McLaren are taking risks for 2012. Apparently there are rumors that they are using very thin sidepods to make room for side wings. It has been confirmed that this is legal too.

Ferrari have apparently come up with an innovation that stores exhaust gases and uses it in the corners, to the same effect as blown diffuser.

2012 is definitively going to be interesting both from a driver's point of view with 6 champions on the grid, and from a team's point of view with innovations being developed and technology taking over.
