I will bløgg about Formula 1 and TV shows.
End of my bløgg
Tags formula 1
I've decided to stop my bløgg due to the uncertain future of this forum. The reason I started writing these was to share my passion for Formula 1 and I hope I have sparked an interest in the sport in at least one person. If that has happened, I have fulfilled my mission.
If you want to follow the sport (apart for the TV broadcast specifics for each country (say hello, [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernie_Ecclestone"]Bernie Ecclestone[/URL]!)) you can read news, features, interviews, watch video etc. on the Internet. Here are links to the sources I use in no particular order:

I think they need to sit down and hammer out a deal. Bernie needs to kick some ass, Mosley needs to compromise and Ferrari needs to stop requesting preferential treatment.
All this nonsense is harming the sport.Posted 05-21-2009 at 02:49 AM by Bludd
