Kati 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2008 I was reading news when accidentaly I came across the results of the World Snail Racing Championship. Yes. Racing. Racing snails. The winner finished race in 3m2s and, hey, it's Heikki. And when I was considering giving up on F1 after yesterday's ridiculous result, I went to the 'series' official website (http://www.snailracing.net) aaaand found this old press release. Children take snail racing very seriously. When 9-year-old Thomas Vincent won the championships with his snail Schumacher, he said: "I have achieved my lifetime's ambition." Why watching F1 anymore when you can watch World Snail Racing Championship?! PS: Money got from series (however they get money from this), go to charity. Bernie'd never do that hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jean Todt 4 Report post Posted July 21, 2008 I think they miss Michelin. But I am happy that Mclaren have found a way to use the tyres better than anyone else, because I was wondering that it could be total Red wash! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

R28 is not the slowest car in F1 even when Alonso makes it slower there are some other slower car that we have to watch anyway in F1. It is not the R28 it is the SNAIL ALONSO who is the slowest in the world. I think he's killed somebody. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
