I decided not to bother this week. Didn't record any of it.
Watched the motorbikes instead and saw fabulous racing by extremely talented people and incredibly professional teams on a fraction of the F1 budget.
Glad I missed it now...bye bye F1...for me.

I came to this topic to post something very similar and then I read your post. Recorded MotoGP and what a wonderful race. Proper on the limit overtaking and awesome skills. I really rate the riders very highly as they were taking bends at speed which I would be scred to do in a car! I am not a rider but I do admire these guys. Not sitting on the seat and constantly moving around and no safety cage around them either is awesome. These guys are amazing.

IIRC Valentino Rossi had a few laps in the Ferrari GP car a few seasons ago and his pace was very impressive.
Now that would be very interesting to see Rossi in F1.

well thats what has been reported
What's been reported is that Button will do a swap with barrichello. Could happen, but Button is reportedly weary of a move to Ferrari as they appear to be on a downwards slope like Williams.
He's actually better off where he is as I think we've yet to see Williams and Ferrari at their lowest point.

From what I saw of that film, it is just round the corner from Simonprelude - wait till he gets here and get his opinions.

I didn't think much of JB's comments after the race yesterday, really quite negative and can't have endeared him at all to his team.
