The WINTER boredome thread

[Hornet]

I'm thinking of watching some good old races whenever I have the time. Just don't know where I could watch them lol

[RedRebel40]

You can try youtube!

[Julie B]

Will have to get my knitting out

[UPz]

it's gonna be a long winter

[Ken]

Long winter ?? Surely its the shortest yet with only 3 months to go untill the next race

I can remember when the season was all done by the end of September and didnt start untill April. Man you youngsters are spoilt

[siberianlady]

I'm gonna hibernate till Friday, March 9th 2011.........

[dfunk257]

The only thing i have in mind which will keep me occupied till March 2011 is PS3 F1 2010. Im not sure if it will contain my impatience though!

[Brakefade]

Gran Turismo 5 will come out on Nov. 24 FYI.

Not literally long... finishing a championship the way we did... no matter if it's 3 months or 3 weeks, it's gonna be a looong break.

[Katu]

it is well deserved break for everyone, i'm gonna catch up with studying and spending time with my family and friends

Fernando and Felipe will be in action at the Pirelli test next week, interestingly neither McLaren drivers are going, and only Vettel and not Webber.

Wow, thanks a lot!

I'm partly relieved the season is over, I can finally get started into some uni work after totally neglecting it so far this semester! I imagine the relief will last an entire day though before I realise that I don't really like doing work and would much rather be distracted by F1.
I hope Paul Mccartney will come back to the UK for a winter tour around Christmas like last year, that would give me something to look forward to on the horizon but it isn't going to happen! Oh well I've always got exams to look forward to...

It'll be Bahrain again in no time anyway, I still remember watching the press conference last year when LdM basically confirmed Fernando but at the same time said he wouldn't be driving for Ferrari and left me very confused. When was that, around Italy or Singapore last year?

[Mrs.Domenicali]

Is it March yet?

[MarlboroFA]

@goferrarigo

I wanted to post the same link...excellent site specially the On board races....

[Nova]

About awhile ago I was checking utube, found some amazing clips of 512's n 917's....the hairy bastiches..very cool...

I will check that...and watch Top Gear...and scowr (scowr?) the net for any signs of the F2011, or F11, or whatever it may be called
i figure by March, someone can put up a pic of an old Nash, tell me its the new Ferrari, n I'll believe them...

Mabey I should just get a slotcar set...

In Hong Kong, I think our channel ESPN Star Sports might broadcast some classic races.

Last year they showed the 1998 Begium Grand Prix.

Actually I think that I will enjoy this break. Even though we certainly had a good season, it was just so hard to see Fernando losing the title. It wasn't as hard as 2008 and Felipe losing it on the last lap but nevertheless it was hard. I have also some very good memories from this season (Monza...).

Let's just enjoy this off-season and hope we will have a good car in 2011.

that is just a brilliant link.
i always want to download full race videos.
when i was downloading 2007 Brazilian GP with Internet Download Manager i look at address that was it:

http://lqstreamer.f-e-n.net/3accc6d1...8dc1/4ce7d0dd/LQ/2007/brazil/F1%202007%20R17%20Brazil.flv?start=0
i can see LQ but in this address.
but i want High quality video.
downloading is not complete yet.
did anyone download video?what is video resolution?

[Suzie]

It might not be too bad. We have Race of Champions, Massa's kart race and the FIA gala before Christmas. After Christmas it's the car launches, Madonna di Campiglio, testing, and then we're straight into the season

RBR we treat both Drivers equally and give both drivers the same chance
