Jaguar has signed Justin Wilson, and changes will take action from now till the end of the season, leaving Antonio Pizzonia in the cold! Minardi will replace him with Nicolas Kiesa!

I have this thought, what will the drop-outs do after that? Join F3000 or quit racing?

Join other racing series, like CART (Alex Yoong), DTM (Jean Alesi), testing F1 cars (Luciano Burti, Allan Mcnish), only old drivers (Eddie Irvine) will quit racing.

One question... Won't the guy go DEAF already? Walking in the lane where F1 cars are going past him at over 300km/h?

Lung: I doubt so but he'll suffer temporary hearing loss cause he wasn't subjected to long term exposure. I know there are 2 kinds of hearing loss categorization, one being the total loss of hearing which you do not hear anything at all and another is the damage 'folicle' in your ear that will constantly send signals to your brain that produces a low frequency sound. You'll just hear a bee buzzing all day in your ear and this type of hearing loss will usually cause physchosis.

Note: If you hangout around Stereophile sites, they'll be glad to help you out.

Life is boring without F1. Period!

Interesting news, Michael Schumacher accusses Mclaren for using team orders in British GP. But I do remember very well, Kimi overtook David with ease! I didn't suspect it was 'team order' until MS mentioned it. So what do you think? I might be biased since I'm a Ferrari fan.

Woohoo, German GP tonight!

no way, wasn't team orders for sure.

Without any solid evidence, I wouldn't want to confirm whether it's team order or not. If it's something like 2 drivers are on 2 totally different pit strategy, then it's fine with me. But if they have any intention to let Kimi pass because he is a lot closer to the championship leader, then I'm with MS.

To be fair, I too don't think it's team order. I don't recall Mclaren giving team orders that early, it's just after mid way point...
