Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger, Senna Movie

Its been 17 years that Ayrton Senna has past away from us, from the accident at the San Marino Grand Prix in 1994 were his crashed his Williams at Tumbrello.

But, first of all don't forget that Roland Ratzenberger who got killed the day before in his Simtek. Would have been interesting that both drivers would have been 51 this year. First for Roland some YouTube footage from his BTCC days in Donnington 1988, in his BMW M3.



Right with Senna, later in the year there will be a Documentary Movie about the Brazilian coming in June I am looking forward to this movie come out. The Poster below and below that the trailer for the film, enjoy.

Chinese Grand Prix Review, Nico or Michael Mercedes-Benz ad

Hi again, new post today discussing last weekends Chinese Grand Prix. I've I can write this longer I will, due to other work I've got to commit to other projects. As I said on my Twitter page on Sunday morning , oh by the way are you following my twitter page yet? Here is the link Jonyh5onracing, anyway here what i said below:

"F1 Chinese Grand Prix, rating: 5/5 great race to watch, great for F1, great job from Pirelli, well done Hamilton for winning."

As I said on the tweet I thought it was the best race for a long while. Maybe for six years (since the great race at Suzuka 2005 were Kimi Raikkonen won) for overall race excitement. Two and half (half meaning KERS) big improvements to the show this year is one the Drag Reduction System (DRS) which you guys either love it or hate it, and main point for the big improvement is Pirelli tyres replacing Bridgestone tyres. In my opinion Pirelli been great for Formula 1 so far this season from the Italian brand. Also. not forgetting KERS has been have been little improvement to the show, but I feel Pirelli is the biggest improvement to the show by miles. So well done Pirelli.

Also, well done Lewis Hamilton for winning the Race, making the championship more interesting between Red Bull and McLaren. Overall a great weekend for Formula 1.

A few weeks back, I found an ad recently on Youtube for a Mercedes-Benz ad with Michael Schumacher and double world champion Mika Hakkinen. This week I found another Mercedes-Benz ad with Michael Schumacher, but this time with Nico Rosberg, so which one would you take to the Hospital for your birth of your first child? Michael or Nico?

Malaysia Grand Prix Review and Chinese Grand Prix Predictions

New post today, not going to be a long one again (due to projects I will be working on, this will take till May to finish on all the projects are sorted).

Anyway last Sunday Malaysia Grand Prix at Sepang was a much better race than Melbourne. As in Melbourne Sebastian Vettel was dominating again, despite losing his KERS midway through the Grand Prix. McLaren looked fast again with Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton throughout the weekend. With after race 20 second penalties for Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso for there race incidence with each other. In my opinion I didn't think the 20 second penalties were justified because both drivers had to come in for an added pit stop for both drivers, had lost time and places for that, so I personally think the penalties wasn't needed.

So Chinese Grand Prix Predictions for this weekend race at Shanghai. Red Bull one - two? I think this circuit need KERS for the long straight, with the teething problems Red Bull got with KERS. I reckoned a McLaren one - two this weekend (Button leading from Hamilton). Sebastian Vettel third. And don't count out Mark Webber, Ferrari's or Renault's either. End of post for now, next post soon. That is all. Bye.

Malaysia Grand prix Prediction

Not a long post this week, due to I've been filming this week for my moving images project, so I've been tired lately, so no review of MotoGP race at Jerez last weekend which was an exciting race in my opinion, Jorge Lorenzo won the race, were evreone else crashed out. Or the first round at Brands Hatch for the BTCC, were Jason Plato became all time race winner in BTCC of beating Andy Rouse record of 60 wins, so contracts to Jason Plato.

So Malaysia Grand Prix at Sepang this weekend. Friday practice has past by with Mark Webber fastest in both Friday practice sessions. And both Red Bull's and McLaren's have been looking fast so far. Predictions for the race: Red Bull one - two possibly Mark Webber just ahead of Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton third. Don't forget Jenson Button or the Mercedes GP team as well, maybe a surprise from Michael Schumacher. Ferrari not sure this weekend hasn't looked fast this weekend so far? but time will tell.

Also, I found an ad recently on Youtube for a Mercedes-Benz ad with Michael Schumacher and double world champion Mika Hakkinen. With the funniest line from Mika, which I enjoyed. So the video below to enjoy.
