IE Doorknobs is back in F1 :lol:
Sounds to me like the Off Topic thread in the Formula 1 forum :shock:

Reminds me a bit of the CIRT thread :D

But what does the topic actually mean ? Are there any rumours being made here ? Apart from having an attitude at an altitude while being stimulated in an inverted simulator inside a badly piloted cessna :lol:
Oh how the mighty have fallen. :?

Dear Ed restore this thread to a pristene condition and it will cleanse our souls of mortal sin. :blah2: :blah2: :blah2:
I went back through the posts and reached the first post and still couldn't understand what this thread was about :D

But perhaps Julian meant 2008 :shock:

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Aint life a b#$% when the racing is over, but the adrenalin is still seeping :lol:

the topic was created for the express purpose of having a thread in which to post all the innuendo and gossip during the preseason.
In my life there is no off season, merely end of season straight in to pre-season :lol:
Don't you suffer from Pre-season tension like the rest of us?
Nah I have an inbuilt pre-tensioner 8)

Snowy would enjoy talking about that, it would even be pleasant!!
Very pleasant indeed :)

What's taking them so long? :cry:
Rumor has it that they will have DeLaRosa as driver #2 just to make Snowy mad :)

You should always go to the source. :roll: Working backwards as you didonly served to cloud your mind and make any understanding fussy.

"backwards understood be only can but forward lived be to has Life" Is just an expession in practice we read from right to left for a reason! :shock:

Ed, I have three bits of goss which I was going to post...........(rifles thru 156cm stack of papers on desk, pistol whips children for getting them out of order, machine guns dawg with impotant paper in mouth) which i created this thread for, then Liz came over n....... but it was to do with Stryker, Doorknobs, broken contracts, Modesty Blaise.......
None about the 2nd McLaren driver :!:

What about Christian Klien ?

Doornbos to race in 2007 ?

Renault livery to be strikingly similar to Stryker :!: :!:

We are being bombarded by junk email today, up around 200%

Now that was :offtopic:

2 Spaniards at McLaren. Did that ever happen ? At any team even ? This would be an interesting statistic!

And I don't think Alonso and de la Rosa are from the same region in Spain :shock: :danger:

"Thanks to JB" Thanks to FW for making such awful executive decisions. Cosworth I ask you? :furious:

DLR seems to be pretty confident about his race seat next season. He thinks that he will be able to prove himself during off-season testing. That much is no rumor. Now, that McL has signed a 10 mil Euro worth sponsorship deal with Santander Bank (spanish) kinda makes people talk about a possible all-spanish lineup for McL in 2007.

Oh but that was my second run Snowy. My first was forward and it clouded my mind so I hoped that by going backwards the clouding would disappear and I can find a proper place to terminate but I became even more clouded that I got involved :shock: :D

Looking at Toyota's current form Williams won't be better off next year. I don't think it's right to blame it all on the engine. Williams chassis is not what it had been for the last 6 years.

De la Rosa is a bit too old to be left danggling like this :roll: There ejected Gary Parfett, surely they have made up their minds why don't they just announce it and make us all happy bunnies.

The only thing I can think of is that Mclaren want to make the announcement on a particularly auspicious day.

Any ideas anyone?

I dont think it has happened in MotoGP, it has in the smaller capacities.
