Welcomes Pazuzu. I'm a historian and studied demonology and specialist subject is occult history. Your screen name is interesting. Sumerian God of plagues or Babylonian king of the demons of the wind.

Or is it just from the roleplaying game Dungeons and Dragons? If it was the former, as I said, interesting. Maybe you've just made yourself a new friend. :lol:
Hahaha it's neither actually.  I have used the name 'Papa Lazarou' (from the BBC comedy The League of Gentlemen) in forums in the past, so it's sorta like a shortened version of that...

But I wasn't aware of the God thing.  Interesting!  I have seen the name in various games, never thought to look it up. :)

Nice to meet you all the same!

hey all, happy to find you all.  i don't know many f1 fans and am looking forward to sharing opinions with you all.  gun to my head i suppose i am a mclaren fan but i've been favoring heikki kovalainen lately.  really liked his firefighter display last year.  hoping that team lotus catches some of the mid-pack teams and hoping some of the mid-pack teams make up some ground on the top teams.  thanks for having me.

Looking forward to the new season, let's hope it's a good one, although it has a lot to live up to after last year!!

We "rae" the best?

Don't you mean we "ear" the best.

I just wish some people would learn to spell around here so that we can keep up our high standards.

Sheesh.....can't even spell "ear"...I am ashamed and embarrassed for the both of us, and, quite frankly, for the forum population in general.

Hello to all, I am a new member, experience blogger on F1, I have been a member of BBC606 (sadly its closing) for 2 years and have had my own F1 Forum for 1 year with close to 200 members, but i don't want to run a forum anymore, I much prefer being in the back seat, and commenting, making the odd article, I hope i enjoy my time on here, I hope to see some good discussions also,

I finally found this place. I am a F1 fan since 1977 and have no one that can understand my passion for the sport. People in this area try to compare NASCAR to F1 and it makes my skin crawl. Nothing wrong with NASCAR if that is your cup of tea, but my cup only gets filled with the cutting edge in technology that is F1. I spent the 70's and 80's building and crewing on a variety of cars from FV, FF, small sedans to Trans Am and NASCAR where I burned out and didn't even watch races for 2 years. I am a Lewis Hamilton fan currently

Hi Newfoundlander (your name is too long so i'm calling you...... Newey :) ) welcome to the joint. You've finally found us? Does this mean somebody actually went LOOKING for this forum, you poor unfortunate soul. You're stuck with a bunch of misfits, weirdo's, some Kiwi dude who calls himself Handy (because he's really got 25 arms, it was the nuclear blast you see). :D :D :lol:

Ok, so the thought crossed my mind that, maybe, after writing here every now and then for the last three years, it might be nice to introduce myself as well.

I'm a Finn, couple of years past 30, theoretical physicist by profession and have been living in Vienna for the past couple of years. I'm married to an American whose knowledge of F1 is restricted to "Ugh, you're watching that damned NASCAR racing again!" -comments every other Sunday ;) We got a couple of dogs; Yoda, a very smart border collie-black lab mix who is just as eager fan of racing as I am (though mostly of racing cats, mice, motorcycles and the like) and a tiny yorkie called Avery, who is too young to have made up his mind about what kind of racing he prefers. Presently, he is trying everything out. Yoda, who we got when we lived in Canada, is a Villeneuve fan, while Avery follows closely everything Red Bull related. On my avatar you can see our hamster Nietzsche, who sadly passed away just a couple of weeks ago :(. As far as my biases go, I'm a big Kimi fan but, as a racing series, F1 comes first, and of the present line-up, I like Lewis' style and Heikki's spirit the most.
