The human race is just getting dumber & dumber by the minute ...

S'up, guys. Haven't been around here in a while! Surprised to see this thread at the top on my first visit in 2 years...

Jason Dial, president & CEO of Circuit of the Americas, is out...

Sad news y'all... Jules Bianchi has succumbed to injuries he sustained in the 2014 Japanese GP. #ForzaJules http://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/jules-bianchi-19892015

Yep...the decisions taken in order to pander to so-called 'green' groups, among other decisions of course, have been disastrous for the sport. The idea that F1 needs to be 'road-relevant' is an utter myth.

Two U.S. teams on the F1 grid in 2016? It could happen http://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/two-us-teams-on-the-f1-grid-in-2016-it-could-happen/ Promoter Tavo Hellmund and financier James Carney head US-based investment group looking to buy a Formula 1 team. Oh, and BTW, yet another in a long...

Frankly, the way the fans run out into the road and give so little room in general, I'm surprised this doesn't happen every year in that race.

My wife and I went there with family before our kids were born, and it just wasn't all it's cracked up to be in our experience. Our kids watch the occasional Disney movie, but I just don't...

Yeah I remember my parents always dropping me off at baseball practice. They'd come to most games, but if one of them couldn't, I never felt less loved because of it. I knew they had #### to do. And man, the whole kid's sports culture has changed so much...for the worse imho. Newsflash...your...

Yes, it was VERY strange. I've never seen anything like that on any level, in 35+ years of watching football.

Yeah. Just a horrible, horrible call and an unprecedented reversal after the announcement afaik. On the Dallas go-ahead TD there was also a missed call on obvious holding by the Cowboys' left tackle. Not sure how that gets missed right in front of the ref.
