Minardi fan returns! Welcome home old chum!
Can't be bothered to list five, so I'm just gonna give me fav. 1. Hokkenheim (yes I KNOW its easy for the drivers, but it ALWAYS gives a good race as drivers slipstream each other down the straights. Look it makes a change from the MILLIONS who ALL say "Spa""Spa""Spa".....) 2. Ferrari. Because.... 3. Ferrari. Because.... 4. Eddie Irvine actually posseses a degree of personality. As does Jacques. 5. Oooo... errr.... crickey.... Gilles?? I dunno. 6. Senna at Donington Panis winning at Monaco ...actually several of this year's races have been pretty good. (cop out. sorry) |
