No refueling...are they shortening the races or building larger tanks?

My faves are Kimi and Schummacher. I didn't get to follow as closely this year as I have in the past...but what I did see was the major shake up that allowed the smaller teams dominate this year and that was pretty interesting.

I really got into the sport 6 or so years ago when I was working on a track here in the Dallas area that was designed for F1 and MotoGP. Was able to go to the Canadian Grand Prix and take a lap around the course in a pace car and discuss the track with the Safety coordinator of F1. Basically he said "build it and F1 will come"..but post 9/11 and a 250 million dollar price tag ended up burying the project.

My wife got me a F1 Tag for Christmas this year Merchandising! LOL I'll definitely be following closer this next season since my tests are out of the way finally.
