christmascracker Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 Well.............I'm still up waiting for quali to start, not on the Tv as usual but I "watch" the live timing on the official F1 site.Why they can't show it live on the tele is beyond me but there you go :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted October 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 I hope that the arrogant one loses again.Well he won :PEDIT: For the thirteenth time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 not wishing to offend anyone, but I would rather watch paint dry than watch a few machines going round and round a circuit, I suppose the ghoul in me thinks the crashes are spectacular, is that why people watch it?

christmascracker Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 I suppose some do - but that's not why I watch it.I've been following F1 for four years now and have been to the last two British Grand Prix.Watching it on the tv isn't a patch on being there, the noise is amazing, the atmostphere is fantastic.I could go on for hours..................... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted October 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 What's stopping you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djohn Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 In all the time I've been following F1, (Many years) and for the past 15 years or so, very closely, I've never been to watch a live race. :( My son has promised to take me to one next year. Don't know yet which one it will be as it will depend on how his duties work out and leave periods. :drool: Even though I only see them on the TV. I can sense as though I'm there, feel the tension, smell the aroma of high octane fuel and burning oil - screeching of tyres and the see the glow of the carbon brake pads. Probably pass out when I get to a live event and miss the lot :down: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 It's obvious i'm not a F1 fan, but I would have thought that watching it on tv (atmospere aside) would be a better viewpoint as there are cameras all around the track and you can see different parts of the race instead of being at one point and seeing a blur of vehicles flying past at a 100 or so miles an hour or faster.

christmascracker Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 Djohn.............you will love it. I'll never forget the first GP that I saw, I was shaking that much I couldn't hold my camera :rolleyes: As I said before, the noise is amazing. What you hear on the tv is nothing compared to being there. One car alone sounds like an aeroplane.....so you can imagine what 20 of them sound like when they come around the first corner (we usually sit at Copse corner). You can actually 'feel' the vibration of the engines.There are lots of F1 cars on show too so you can get up close and have a look.Ranger..........there are lots of very large screens all around the circuit so you don't miss anything.
