Thread Name: BS: No Grand Prix at Silverstone?
Subject: RE: BS: No Grand Prix at Silverstone?
relax - there is still one at Donningtom and you get three Grand Prix on the day. True there aren't as many wheels (per) but if you add-up all the races & racers and divde by 2 you will still have much more racing and a lot more overtaking and the guy who is doing most of the winning - smiles - and does his victory antics standing on the seat doing wheelies. Often as he crosses the line. He is worth £40 million at 24. He has figured that he is in show business and performs as well as he rides - which is argued to be "the best ever" - there aren't too many dissenters. he is coy about his skills till he gets on the bike. And this year he rides a poorer bike and still rubs their noses in it.

Formula 1 is eponimous - it is formulaic.   True - Schumaker drove a poorer car and made it what it is, But his smile is not entertaining - now is it?
