Sky TV made it better too....

Hate these stupid pan/track/fade through black intros that every video seems to have these days. But made up for by some quality hoonage without recourse to undesirable music.

A thousand times yes! My favorite pastime was to make a track with as much downhill as possible in the track designer to do ridiculous top speed runs.

Fiat Cinquecento Sporting Abarth!

This has taken a slight turn in the odd direction! :) I'm just going to sit over here & quietly anticipate the release of Rush.

I think I'll reserve my judgement until I see the film rather than a 2 second cut in a trailer.

Was a common sight on tracks like the Nurburgring in the pre-aero times.

There was some behind the scene footage of the Lauda crash knocking around a few months ago, made my blood run cold. I hope this film is epic!

Filming pretty much anything in the UK will get you dark moody skys and rain!

Gabilier, Gabilier, Gabilier! Oh please let it be a Gabilier.

I find it hard to believe that any engine putting out those power levels in race trim is going to sound dull.

It's the SatNav/Info display I think.

On my old Renault Laguna, a headlamp bulb change was a 45 minute dealer-only job. Lamp units had to come completely out, most of the front bumper was unbolted.

I read an interview with one of the F1 engine people somewhere recently, and the matter of the noise seemed to be summed by saying that the sound will be different, but they'll still be making 800ph, so we can rest assured they'll sound pretty incredible still.

What a great circuit! And and McNumbers sounds pretty sweet in GT3 trim to boot.

The archetypal knowing when you're onto a good thing!

The crescendo of cringeworthyness though was (as it often is) F1's slimiest team principal Christian Horner's post race interviews.

Classic & still good looking, has to be minilights!

Wow! That's a pretty amazing build. It must be incomprehensibly fast!

I love this car but, ye gads! The colour.
