There were some good dices today during the race. It was nice to see Ferrari not totally sucking. The Red Balls seem to be working nicely with their new additions. Old Seb Vet made it look easy out there.
I truly hope that Donington Park fails in a way. I like Silverstone. A lot. Even if Silverstone does have to take a break eventually I'd still rather see the British GP at Brands Hatch as opposed to Donighton... but whatever.
I'm sad it will be another three weeks before the next outing of F1'ing.

Interesting and/or scary
This is all getting really weird. I have no clue what is going on. I hope in the end Max Mosley pisses off and agrees to retire like he is supposed to. I hope Bernard Ecclestone stops being a greedy wrinkly old pixie and gives the teams some more money and stops setting up new races in places for the sake of money and not motorsport. I'm tired of those two old knobs! While I respect both greatly for what they have done for Formula Juan Racing over the past few decades they both need to go away now and enjoy their money elsewhere.
This is about not taking shit offa no one. This is a revolution. I hope it all works out and all ends on paper as it has all started on paper. Hopefully everything will right itself... but I'm kind of nervous. Max Mosley is starting to remind me of a rabid crazy old dog which is quite unsettling. It is like he's nothing left to lose so he's just going to keep being more and more of a twat.
Maybe this is a conspiracy to destroy F1 legally as we know it. Maybe Max, Bernie, and the teams are all in on it... or else this really is just an absurd power struggle. One or the other though.
Either way, it looks like war?
I listen to BBC World News at night when I go to sleep. Something about those proper British voices talking about depressing world events just lulls me to sleep. Even though F1 is FAR more popular overseas than in the US, I still always get excited when they talk about F1 on Sunday nights after a race. Usually they just tell you the top 3 results and play a little interview blurb of the winner... so last night I was quite surprised to hear that the 8 FOTA teams have decided to break away from F1. Especially since they mentioned the breakaway about 4 times an hour for two hours and sometimes would give detailed versions of what happened which I appreciated since I wanted nothing more than to get up and hop on the internet, which obviously was not an option at 3am.
Usually I'm on top of my F1 news but I moved 2 weeks ago and have yet to get cable/internet/phone set up in my apartment so I only get to read up on F1 news every few days when I swing by my folks house.
So I was truly surprised and nervous when the BBC told me what was going on.
