Quiet One 15 Report post Posted February 8, 2007 Ohhh...a newbie! Just ignore these guys...no one knows anything. Most of them will tell you about this guy Schumacher..do you really think a man with that name is good? Now, listen to a real expert and I will tell you all about Liuzzi...you will thank me for that later... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stop trying to influence newbie's taste and make him a supporter of luizi when the schumacher just left the sport. instead give him a nice non biased ppt(upload) on why he should choose luizi over Ferrari(kimi Raikaonen or Fellipe Massa) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Welcome!! Seeing a Monaco GP and being instantly hooked marks you as a true fan and quite superior to a nOob. Enjoy your stay and post whatever thoughts you have...you'll probably still get a thrashing every so often, but what the hell, it's only words on a computer monitor! So, as a new fan, which team or driver excites you? What move or pass or element of F1 got you saying 'I'm a fan'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT 849 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2007 pumpdoc I'm also from So Cal. I live in Riverside about 60 miles south of L.A. in the inland empire. Since your in my time zone do I need to get a Tivo I've heard the races come on at like 1:00 in the morning? As far who I'm rooting for, well I'm a Ford guy and we don't have a team, so I am going for Scott Speed. (although I heard he was hurt) I also love Ferraris so I will cheer Massa on too. Although I will probably change half way thru the season after I see the more of the personas the drivers have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, get TIVO or something because speed shows the races live...European ones are at 4 am and the asian ones are 10pm to 1am. They sometimes do replays, but never count on it. SpeedTV.com online schedule is your friend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No Your first assesments is alsmost right, i mean we can work on speed but Ferrari and Massa are the better way forward. You have fine choice for a new guy. i watch the races online when they air on a few websites.(i study in IL) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well since the first GP you witnessed was Monaco '06, im sure you saw how 'Fernando Alonso the Great' toyed with Mark Webber & Kimi Raikkonen in that race causing them to break their toys so the marvelous Spaniard could stroll to victory. O yes, Im sure you also saw how some German guy called Shue-maker (or something like that) tried to cheat as was a trait throughout his career. Anyhow, enjoy the forum and more importantly this great sport Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pabloh20 1 Report post Posted February 9, 2007 A belated welcome, GT 849. Just ignore Wez, Alonso isn't so much a driver to him, but more like a magic 8 ball, really, which he uses to dictate his whole life!! He has the Alonso pyjamas, bedcovers and everything!! You seem more than capable making up you own mind, so I will not try to poison you with any indoctrination! Enjoy the season, when it starts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
