I'm really looking forward to it too, will be interesting with the Lotus row continuing into the start of the season.  Hopefully Mclaren will have a much stronger car this year, at least on a par with Ferrari.  I just hope (stupidly) Adrian Newey hasn't designed another amazing car for Red Bull, because with team orders being allowed this season I think they could run away with the championship by backing Vettel.

Sundays just aren't the same without the GP, a beer and a BBQ.

Yep can't wait for the new season to start....

On a trivial note.... A black cab pulled up in front of me today in Davies Street London..... and who else but good old Flavio Briatore jumped out. As I had to stop he gave me a little wave..... I could tell he was seriously impressed with my GTi (the cheating C**t)  :grin:

My favourite is Kubica's reply to Petrov accusing him of not giving advice last season:
"To be honest, I'm happy because I have learnt something from him even without knowing or wanting it - how to keep the car on the track..."

Team Lotus FTW, I know there is no chance but I would love to see them finish ahead of the black and gold renault.

Why? It's not the team's fault that the owner's decided to team up with Lotus. And until the court makes their decision there's no knowing who's really in the right....

Really like the look of this, the sidepods look completely different from any other car from the head on view.  hope this is a big improvement on 2010.
