For anyone using Chrome, check out the Red Bull TV app. They've got two shows on F1 (one that follows Riccardo and Verenge, and one that's hosted by DC), as well as some stuff on all the rest of their more spectacular goings on.

OMG. So showing the guy in the office who used to work with RB that vid. LOL.


Also found out one of the bosses in the company used to be w/ Honda F1 engines back when they were the supplier for McLaren back in the good ol' Senna days. Maybe I can get some good stories out of him if I'm not too chickenshit to spark up a conversation.

When you speak of Honda, it sounds like they are a fun company that builds fun cars...then I look at their cars and then I get :hs:

The hybrid cluster? Even on paper it looks like a sham compared to what the first NSX was.

Shame, Honda used to be, hands down, the company with the most fun lineup.

You have to remember that Honda is MUCH more than just a 'car company'.

It's really a diverse engine company.

That said, I was never too excited about any generators or lawn mowers that I can recall.

Everyone is in negotiation with Williams. They're the only seat left on the grid.
