bounce - my first thought was Jean todt has had a word in luca's ear saying the FIA will have to take action unless you wind your necks in.  :grin:

A7 - i've never really believed that tbh. If ferrari left f1 would carry on i should think ,it may take a temporary dip in popularity but I wouldnt care and i doubt i'm the only one.

I can't stand ferrari as a F1 team....but if you go to any race abroad, at least 80% of the spectators support ferrari.

30% seems very light to me.  I don't think it would die out, but it would definately lose some of its appeal abroad.

take ear plugs/defenders.  If you're sat behind them as they exit a corner it's deafening

yup , earplugs are a must.   one going past isn't too bad , when they're in a train it's fcuking deafening! what you'll also notice that you don't hear on TV is the loud bang everytime they change gear.

The bang is unbeleivable!!! The noise of a F1 car is enough for me to make a terrible mess of my pants lol
