Hard Core Fans

This weekends Formula One race in Japan will bring out the Hard core fans being up 4:30am 2moz. With the Championship at stake, Lewis on pole and Massa fighting from 5th - it should be an interesting one.

Honda is waiting for Alonso to join the team. Firstly - Why would Alonso want to go to Honda - they are towards the back of the grid. Especially as Renault have improved a lot over the last few races. Secondly - Who would be leaving Honda if he arrives. One would assume that it would be Barry who would have to retire? or a Alonso, Button swap? (Button back to renault? I doubt it!)

I found while watching the Qualy a very interesting point. 'It is so close with regards to times for grid positions'. This is true but its never really that tight during a race with overtaking.

Looking forward to the new rules of 2009. A lot of changes - esp with coverage on BBC. Brundle and Coulthard to head the line up pundits. With Brundle being the only current ITV guy to sign up for BBC. Also last race of the season will be on 15th Nov. Stretching the season even further - Nice one. Looking forward to 2009 but not the off season. I hate the off season!!
