I want a mandatory wet race (well, its quiet cheaper than a night race, admit it) at least once a year, placed at Venecia.

A race should be hosted at Satilgrad, eastern bank of the Volgograd, where the nazis never reached and... DAMN IT!

French GP should be at Paul Ricard, and the Track Sprinklers plugged into a program that activates them at random during the race....Are they gonna come on this year? I dunno?

Kubica can do a lot better than going to Renault, he'd be better off at Qadbak.

A F1 race in the US, at a proper road circuit, that doesn't have competing events to draw away crowds...like nearby ostrich races!

Kubica is definitely going to Renault. They saw his profiled and said "Woah! That's Alain Prost!".

I wish people would stop saying Heidfeld is outdriving Kubica - Kubica is the one generally doing the outdriving, when he actually gets on even terms with Heidfeld.

Scandals distract us from how bad some of the races can be.

Rantbox is the twitter of the F1Rejects forum: it reduces the attention span tremendously.
“Mexico City is a better place to hold the (Mexican GP) than Cancun,” said Ecclestone. “In more or less any city around the world you could ask people ‘where is Mexico City?’ and they would say ‘Mexico’.”

Damon Hill's drive at the Hungaroring in 1997 is comparable to Fangio's drive at the Nurburgring in 1954.
