A balance is drawn between green technology and the classic F1 sound

I'm writing this on Thursday because on Friday (i.e. yesterday) I will be going (will have gone) to Oxford for a wedding. Therefore, I'm going to have to hope that I don't embarrass myself by getting this down so early.

So, what does everyone think of Murray's chances in the final tomorrow? Man, after annihilating Nadal, I don't think anything can keep him from winning the title. I'll definitely be watching that one. But today is Saturday and it's time to catch up on the world of F1, past, present and future.

This Week In F1

  • Austin Race is a Go-Go!: The new venue for the USGP has been endorsed by Austin's City Council, though they are pushing to move the race out of its original June slot as Texas is hella hot in the summer. It is unclear if the Circuit of the Americas is one of the "all but two" tracks threatening to switch to Indy Cars if attempts continue to move F1 engines out of the dark ages.
  • Allen and Windsor Come Together: Peter Windsor inviting James Allen onto his F1 Vlog this week, defying experts' advice regarding so much hateable F1 personality in one room. I haven't watched the video, but I presume they both sob over endless whiskeys about their fall from great heights with Windsor eventually pretending to race his USF1 car around the room while Allen commentates. That's probably what's on the video..
  • Daniel Ricciardo to Debut: Word on the street is that Daniel Ricciardo will replace Kartikeyan at HRT for the rest of 2011, save for the Indian GP. HRT look to continue their tradition of rotating as many drivers as possible through their seats, while Toro Rosso continue their tradition of never being entirely sure about their race drivers.

This Time Last Year

  • Newey Given RB5: As a present for all his good work, Adrian Newey was gifted his Red Bull RB5 at the Goodwood. Newey hoped to take some friends out to hire some time at a few circuits "with a lot of run-off areas" and take it for a spin. Rumour has it, on Nick Wirth's resignation, Virgin gave him the VR-01 as a leaving present, which was easy as it fitted on a single USB-keyring.

This Time Five Years Ago

  • Ferrari take Indy 1-2: Schumacher led Barrichello to an American 1-2, after eight cars (Montagny, Webber, Klein, Montoya, Raikkonen, Button, Heidfeld and Speed) retired from a first corner incident. As Fernando Alonso could only managed sixth, this put Schumacher on a serious title charge.

This Time Next Year

  • IndyCar to host 34 race 2014 season: The IndyCar series will be consist of 34 races across the world as it agrees to adopt the 18 F1 events that have switched allegiance from Formula 1 in defiance of it's desire to introduce "wimpy" 1.6 litre V6 turbos. Instead the 34 tracks will be blessed with the hardcore sounds of the Indy 2.2 litre V6 turbos.

  • Bernie: Bored of Silverstone 'Wing' Now: Bernie Ecclestone has criticised Silverstone's 'Wing' building as being 'totally 2011' and 'seriously outdated'. He told media gathered at the British GP, 'I think we'll have to start looking elsewhere is the BRDC can't get their act together. I've got Qatar, Zimbabwe and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia all knocking at my door and asking for races. What am I supposed to tell them?'

  • Lucas: Senna will be better than ever: George Lucas has bought the rights to the movie Senna and plans to re-release the film in the Autumn in 3D and with the driving scenes digitally remastered in CGI. 'There are some things you can't project to your audience with old stock footage,' said the crazed producer, 'now we'll be able to fly in and out of Ayrton's car and really bring that blockbuster feel what was already a fairly solid movie.'

    Have arranged to meet Lara @Photo_Feature at Goodwood tomorrow, either at Cathedral Paddock in the morning for the Alfa run or more likely at 12.30 by the sculpture.

    If anybody is at Goodwood there are several of us meeting at 12.30 (after the F1 cars) by the Jaguar E-Type sculpture outside Goodwood House. We'll be there ten-fifteen minutes or so? Will repost this in the morning.

    I'm going to have to leave these uploading overnight I think, the videos are taking ages and are slowing down the photos.

  • Pat W01/07/2011 at 23:56

    For anyone staying up, Danica Patrick is in the Nationwide Series race which started just a few minutes ago..

    I'm off to bed and will link to the photo album properly in the morning.

    Another Star Warsd Marathon is on this weekend and the film of the original triology is on. I have just reached that scene on the revised version that really ruins the whole movie for me now and so had to leave the TV set. To those of you who have not seen Star Wars I will not reveal anything new here...

    All I can say is H-- shot first!

    We have met Lukeh & Pat. Red Arrows display. There are 9 of them so all is right with the world.

    Lukeh has seen Bruno, we have seen Karun and also Jesse but no Jenson yet. I am sitting in the shade with the bags whilst the others roam the paddock. Hot here but some welcome clouds.

    Watching MotoGP's Qualifying preview. I've never loved that competition, but it's the only motorsport event I can watch today.

    I can't connect with the channel that broadcasts the World Series :(

  • Leigh O'Gorman02/07/2011 at 11:56

    GT1 Race 1 should be on GT1world in a couple of hours I think. Their qualifying might already be up on the site

  • Leigh O'Gorman02/07/2011 at 11:56

    If you're interesting in GT1, that is.

    I am connected with a little modem, whose speed is awful. I can't even open formula1 website. :(

  • Marti02/07/2011 at 12:15

    Why do the MotoGP television record the moto's so closely? I mean, I watch TV and I just can see the moto, I can't see the track. #f1isbetter

    Greedy buggers They had the most recent Olmpics of the named Countries. 1988 Summer Games, Well, I guess the IOC knows that the South Koreans will definiteilty add tons more money to the bribary pot as they are going to shot their bolt on this one.

    Apparently, the number "four" is very unlucky in Korean. In Korean, "four" sounds very similiar to the Korean word meaning "Death". Same type of deal as "Won" and "One" in English, I guess.

    It is actually a minature figurine of Eugene Pallette, the actor who played Friar Tuck in the Flynn version of Robin Hood, and you are quite right. He's dead now. But his 1/72nd likeness is in every Robin Hood kit made by Airfix.

    I am using the figure as a monk padre for my Spanish Napoleonic Army (Or that's the idea, anyway...)

    Robin Hood and Napoleon is an interesting combination

    The basic idea is to somehow get teh Friar Tuck/ Spanish Priest figure to basically threaten my Spanish Army with excoumminication if my Spanish Troops even things about running again. (The dyes to make their uniforms held faster than their fromations.....)

    Besides. At teh wargamming club, my Spanish Troops are famously known as "The Anvil Army", as they keep getting hammered !

    Yes, he does seem to be able to "personally surround a castle"*, doesn't he, but anyways, as long as he also look like a man of the cloth, I am happy.

    * Reference to the film "The Adventures of Robin Hood" - The actual line was: "Friar Tuck, surround the castle, - personally."

    So lucky, Kai ran after him and I gave chase

    I don't think I gave you much of a choice, Pat. hehe I had to repay the favor of you taking the pic of me and him on Friday. :)

  • Kai in the UK02/07/2011 at 20:17

    I'd love to go a 3rd day but I really could use that rest. :)

    I'm a zombie right now. It took my three attempts to tweet properly. Nice to mess that up in a public forum.

    Goodwood is incredible and exhausting.

    I am too. I feel like I'm still doing 70 on the motorway.. and I feel like I've got a camera and radio around my neck.

    I do love how we all encouraged each other to go up to people or ask for a pic or autograph, or whatever. Whenever we asked "Should I...." the answer was "Yes. Go.". It gave me that little nudge I needed to go ahead and possibly make an idiot out of myself, which I did at times, but whatever. :)

    I could still hear the commentary in my ear still when I was trying to sleep, but blame most of that on the excessive intake of drink manufactured by a certain F1 constructor.

  • Leigh O'Gorman02/07/2011 at 20:39

    Well, I suppose that rules out some rather strong drinks associated with a certain Swiss F1 team

    yeah, so they can see them. I usually am a lot more private, but what the hell? I want them to remember when it was, given that they see 4 million people a day.

    M&S have a sale ATM, and they've got heels with an insole that is fanbloomingtastic! Failing that brogue like things can be had from the various back to school sections.
