I loved the Top Gear USA. Great hosts, Adam, Rutledge, & Tanner. I have known Rutledge through Nascar, one of the nicest Speed TV reporters! & oh my..Tanner Foust...yeah that man is my guilty pleasure LOL. I think its just as good as Top Gear UK. I really enjoy both.

Ill be decorating my place for Christmas tommorow, always do it the day after Thanksgiving! & Yes add a touch of F1!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow Tifosi in the USA! :)

I was very bored one day after the season, so i decided to make a highlights video, using the FIA highlights, but my own music.

This was one of my favourite seasons of F1, and it brings back good memories.

If you guys like it, i may make one for 2006, or 2008.

Enjoy.

EDIT:For those that can't see it on youtube, here is an upload link.

Thanks for this - the mix of music and visuals is tremendous and reminds me of what a nasty year it was - for some of us - not being at the time Ferrari fans. But I was glad Kimi won nonetheless.

I'm a bit ashamed to say, that all i did was laugh in Hungary 07. I just laughed at McLaren every race of the season from then on, then it reached a climax in China. I can't believe i was laughing at the man i now respect a lot and support 3 years ago when he crashed in Fuji.

Thanks, though, might make an 06 one next.

Diego has fallen in combat!

Forsooth..... what are we to do now for our sport?

It's not that boring... It's Valencia time!

**Greig** · 28th November 2010, 17:55

Is that you? where and when?

Don't worry! Even Alonso will understand you - he is a Real Madrid supporter and, as such, he hated the same Luis Figo (then a Barcelona player) that a couple of years later he idolised (when he signed for Real Madrid)!

PS Also Barcelona supporters hated Luis Enrique until he moved to Barcelona - that is the way it goes!

Cool picture of Ferrari in Valencia - pity we got screwed there!

Make an 06 one and you'll surely be forgiven !

**scuderiafan** · 28th November 2010, 21:18

i'll try

**mandzipop** · 28th November 2010, 21:47

I am still deciding what to do. I've left the xmas shopping to the last minute to help me survive December now that RoC has finished. Hopefully (health depending) I should be off to winter testing in Barcelona. I've been to see Harry Potter. Need to catch up on my family tree stuff. I've also got other F1 stuff to do (unfortunately not all Ferrari releted, but as an F1 fan first and foremost, still very interesting). Just because the races stop, it certainly doesn't mean F1 stops. So I have my hands full with that. Dancing on Ice is due to start in a couple of weeks (one of my few tv indulgences as I don't like tv much) and also Wild at Heart and The Tudors. So I've got a packed out off-season time.

**Ken** · 28th November 2010, 23:37

Oh stop all the crying about a break, tut tut.

Vettel and Webber are a good example of how to pass the time, turning to cutting lawns for some spare cash, The fastest mowers in the world.

Ramilton is looking through the charity shops trying to find a fashion craze he can start, Or was that Cat's blanket he was wearing, anyway he has found him self something to do.

Bernie is trying to be another Robin Hood but some one should tell him, He is the one that should be robbing the rich and giving to the poor, give him time he will get the hang of it.

See fellow fans there are things to be done in the off season just takes a little imagination.

And it will give the engineers time to build us 2 new cars for next year.

In the meantime I am off to see if I can do a deal with Bridgestone to sell off their shed full of second hand tyres to boy racers,

See you all in the spring

**Nova** · 29th November 2010, 01:45

Hmm, mabey jigsaw puzzles..nah..

Some new threads make me wonder if we all go insane due to race-deprivation

Pict was Valencia Yesterday, my old 2008 Ferrari World Champions hat still looks very good, wish I had one for 2010! The person in the pict is a very good family friend G. Scola, who works for Ferrari who is wearing my hat since I couldn't make the trip. Picture was taken by Gimmi Bruni for me. You can see G. @ 29 seconds standing next to Gimmi.

Measures the wind turbulence using pedo tubes to measure the air pressure along the plane. Normally done with fighter aircraft and not F1 cars but Red Bull have someone from the aircraft realm in their garage. Ferrari should be poaching engineers from Boeing before Red Bull kicks them around again.

**Richred** · 29th November 2010, 14:46

New tires ... new turbulence

cool

**Nova** · 29th November 2010, 19:23

Wow, aircraft..thats cool..makes ya wonder what everyone has up their sleeve for next year...

I know that F Ducks are out for 11, replaced by some adjustable wing, but what about the DD?
Is that out for next year? If so, what will they use? A single deck Diffuser? Is there such a thing?

About that, i don't think he would be happy after last night. That was total utter annihilation. The they tried breaking Messi's legs afterwards.

I wonder if Alonso needs another TV?

**RockyRaccoon** · 30th November 2010, 22:14

I watched Malaysia 2007 tonight, it's so strange seeing Alonso drive a Mclaren...he never suited it!
