The new Ferrari A1 GP car is out.

Nice looking.

It's making me mad.

The DP01 is brilliant, the fucking GP Masters cars were not shabby.

Both are permantly retired.

But now the Ferrari powered A1 GP, based on the 2004 Ferrari F1 2004 is out!

And to think. The team that runs Ireland in A1 GP also runs the Canadian
team, and they were on the cusp of grabbing the lost Toronto Champ Car race
and getting A1 GP to Canada in July.

Then Andretti-Green bought it out!

Anyway, see the comments from the fans at this link along with the picture:

"Champcar sould have formed an alliace with A1 GP"

I did wonder about plumping for Alonso somewhere in there, but I just
can't see him getting ahead of at least four out of the Ferraris, BMWs
and McLarens. He might be in the top three on the grid, but if so, it
won't last.

  Mosley to skip official functions in Monaco         


Author: Paulie
Date: May 16, 2008 09:35

FFIA president Max Mosley will not be the governing body's representative at
official functions over the Monaco Grand Prix weekend, the Automobile Club
of Monaco (ACM) has confirmed, with deputy president Marco Piccinini
scheduled to fulfill that role.
Mosley is to make his first appearance at a Grand Prix in Monaco since the
News of the World made revelations about his private life earlier this year.

And with obvious concerns about Monaco's Prince Albert facing potential
embarrassment in meeting Mosley in light of the ongoing controversy, it has
been agreed that Mosley will not attend official functions, such as the
podium and prize-giving gala, to avoid putting the royal family in a
difficult position.

He will, however, continue to represent the governing body and will hold
planned meetings over the course of the weekend.
