Its amazing how many old (& current) R/C racers are now working in full size motorsport.... especially in this area of the UK, but I guess it makes sense as its such a great intoduction for car-mad youngsters into the world of motorsport, currently at our club we have guys who work for Mercedes F1, Ray Mallock Racing (of Cavalier BTCC fame) & Illmor race engines

Red Bull are just that little bit better then the rest.
Lol, because the outright dominance of Ferrari in the early to mid 2000 years was so long ago....
me <-- Ferrari F1 team admirer, but not a fan at all
Did not root for Ferrari then! I don't like when any team just wins all the time (except AE! ). I like close racing with lot's of passing, I think we all do! Not the pole whores that lead from start to finish! Yes this season was much better, with 4 teams able to win at any time. Even Force India had a chance in Brazil!
For Ferrari fan.
Ferrari appealed against the result of Sunday Brazilian Grand Prix. They claimed Vettel committed an illegal maneuver overtaking " Jean-Eric Vergne of Torro Rosso " which is clearly not allowed.
If Ferrari successfully appeal, Vettel drop to 8 place and would mean Alonzo would be word champion.

They pulled that during the first Safety car, it was a card worth playing as far as the FIA goes but a damn desperate move.

Sebastian Bourdais old Indy car crew chief used to race with us, and an Ilmor engineer from Detroit shows up at a lot of the big races...not to mention the multitudes of ex dirt oval and motocross guys at any track. It's a little less dangerous than the real thing.

i remember using the dt02 sand viper bones in a pinch once. they fit fine.
my memory is playing tricks on me, dt02's fit, df02's dont.
Half way through the Malaysia GP and dozed off! :( So boring! I wish they could get some parity in the sport for more passing. I know they have been trying for years, but again the lead cars are all spaced. The only close racing is back in the pack!...
