I'd love to be that bloke in the safety car for a grand prix!
Not really. I'm more of a touring car man when it comes to watching traffic.

As in the sport where they use motorbikes on gravel and brake with their boots? Forgot to mention that one, I think :)
Yep, pretty big in your part of the world, isn't it? Think it's mainly Sweden & Denmark tho. I remember the Danes as being dominant as a kid in the mid-late 80s: Erik Gundersen, Hans Nielsen, Jan O Pedersen & Tommy Knudsen. My dad used to take me along to our local track (Mildenhall) every Sunday in summer.

Something very thrilling about four 500cc bikes with no brakes & one gear being slung round hair-pin bends at 70mph. :)

Spot on. :) Norway had one driver, but he's getting on a bit - 32-33 now, lost his place in the GP tour after this season, but he's still good at league level. He was the first Norwegian to be top-ten in the world since the fifties... :D

I try to watch whenever the Grand Prix races are on - they're sent on Swedish TV cos Swedish riders are so good, and because it's actually a decent TV sport (the highlights, anyway - I think they cut out about 2 hours of breaks and most of the early heats).

Yes, because it's good for the sport that Ferrari wins every single race by a mile...

But dont you think that is a bit unfair....Just because you win avery grand prix it does not mean you have to go change the rules...all the cars are the same speed...it just Shumacher(spelling) he is just to great....Look at barachello he has a ferrari and does not come close to Michel.....

Actually, yes, you have to, because no one would watch F1 if they knew Schumacher would win (except Ferrari tifosi)

Um...nope. Schumacher won very little the first two or three seasons with Ferrari, it was just when the car started to go well that he won everything. Besides, and this is very important: The rules are the same for everyone!

As for Barrichello not coming close to Michael, they've had a lot of one-twos in the past three seasons. It has a lot to do with team orders and the fact that Barrichello isn't as good a driver as many others.

Yes...And im no expert at this but i feel that is ludicris..ok so all the drivers have the same rules as well but it suits their cars...Ferrari is a modernised version and cant adapt to these rules,....

the reason ferrari win all the time is not because of the driver, if schumacer was driving a williams then he would be no where near as good. its 3/4 machine and the rest is down to the driver.
