Taste of the Race

Every once in a while Jim and I get an email that truly impresses us and makes us feel great about contributing to the F1 community with our humble podcast. This email we got from Josh is an excellent case in point. In fact, we were so impressed that we wanted to share with everyone. And as promised on the podcast, here is his email including all the pictures he sent us. Truly impressive! Josh, you’ve taken Taste of the Race to the next level. Our hats are off to you!

TASTE OF THE RACE:

Jim and Robin,

My friends and I have been inspired by the idea you mentioned of doing a “taste of F1” and I thought the two of you would get a kick out of what we’ve been up to so far this season. It started with “burgers with the lot” for Australia and has only gone up in complexity from there. We don’t make any claim to extreme authenticity (and as dim-witted Americans like yourselves we feel entitled to do whatever we want and ignore what we don’t like), but we have been putting in a good effort, and it’s all been mostly homemade except for Malaysia. I’m sending this along as an email because my Facebook photo album can’t be shared with your show’s page.

British Grand Prix 2012 trackside

Jim and I greatly enjoyed the 2012 British Grand Prix. The television coverage gave us a great summary of the race as a whole, allowed us to focus on, and see the details of, the most fiercely fought battles on track, and once it was all said and done, we got to see and hear Jackie Stewart interview the podium with wonderful clarity. But, of course, all of those experiences pale in comparison  to actually attending the Grand Prix at Silverstone. The ability to take in the smells, absorb the atmosphere, and immerse oneself in the chaos and energy of the crowd far surpasses the greatest TV coverage by leaps and bounds. Craig “The Kilt” Wilson got that experience and wanted to share. So take a minute and loose yourself in the real British Grand Prix! – Robin

An amazing weekend at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2012

For anyone even remotely interested in motorsport the Festival of Speed is a MUST. Where else would you get to see F1 stars of past and present roaring round the Goodwood Hill Climb track in some of the sport’s most iconic cars? Throw in some jaw dropping supercars, superbikes, thought provoking concept cars, stunt bikes, the Moving Motorshow, a challenging rally stage, the Red Arrows display team and the Le Mans 24-hour winning Audi E-tron Quattro and it’s bound to be a weekend to remember.


Who needs Armco barriers when you have hay bales?

Valencia will entertain in 2012! Hopefully…

The Valencia Street Circuit has bored virtually every Formula 1 fan in the world since the circuit’s debut in 2008, when Ferrari’s Felipe Massa took the victory. That year Valencia took over from the Nurburgring as the European Grand Prix, in the hopes of adding more grandeur to the event with a similar vibe to Monaco.

Fail.

Monaco has pedigree and history topped off with a fat dollop of glamor, to be sure, but it’s also a unique and fantastic racetrack. The narrow streets twist, dive and ascend up and down a beautiful coast with a stunning view. A driver turns-in to many corners blind, shoots through tunnels, and brakes and turns over bumpy hills. It’s glorious chaos for a driver to overcome. That’s why nothing is more stunning than watching Senna qualify at Monaco on You Tube.

For Example:
