![]() 31 October, 01, 02 November 2008 Using spoiler-tag to reduce size of first post. ![]() ![]() ![]() [spoiler] Wikipedia wrote: The Brazilian Grand Prix (Portuguese: Grande Prêmio do Brasil) is a Formula One championship race which occurs at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace in Interlagos, a district in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. [/spoiler]A Brazilian Grand Prix was first held at Interlagos in 1972, although it was not part of the Formula One World Championship. The following year, however, the race was first included in the official calendar. In 1978 the Brazilian Grand Prix moved to Jacarepaguá in Rio de Janeiro, briefly returning to Interlagos for the next two seasons before becoming the sole host from 1981 onwards. In 1990 the Grand Prix returned to Interlagos, where it has stayed since. In 2005, for the first time, the Brazilian GP decided the World Championship, won by Fernando Alonso. On October 22, 2006, Felipe Massa became the last home winner of the Brazilian GP. While its 68 years old facilities are subpar compared to most circuits on the calendar, the Interlagos circuit has created some of the most exciting and memorable races in recent Formula One history, and is regarded as one of the most challenging and exciting circuits on the F1 calendar. Along with Spa-Francorchamps, it is rare in that the circuit in its modern form is one of the few with a lengthy history in the sport not considered to have lost much of its mystique or challenge in its adaptation for the modern, much more safety-conscious era of 21st century Formula One. Circuit History [spoiler] F1.com wrote: In 1938 a huge plot of land was bought in Sao Paulo by two local property developers who intended to build a large housing development. It soon became clear, however, that one part of the land was not suitable for housing and so they decided to build a racing circuit instead. Sao Paulo grew at an incredible speed though and soon the circuit was surrounded by houses. [/spoiler]When, in the 1970s, Emerson Fittipaldi began to have international success, the Brazilians started to want a Grand Prix. In 1971 and 1972 Interlagos hosted non-championship events but in 1973 the track hosted its first championship Grand Prix. The track became a lucky charm for local racers, Fittipaldi, Carlos Pace and Carlos Reutemann all taking the spoils of victory in the 1970s. Interlagos was the scene of Pace's first and only Formula One victory, and following his death in a plane crash the circuit was renamed in his honour. In 1978 the grand prix moved to Rio, but in 1979 Interlagos got its race back. By 1981 however Rio had retaken the Grand Prix, Sao Paulo's slums being at odds with the glamorous image Formula One wanted to portray. When a $15m redevelopment programme was agreed in the heyday of Ayrton Senna, a Sao Paulo local, the race finally moved back to Interlagos. And there it has stayed. Since Senna's death there may have been no Brazilian world champion, but the passion of the Brazilian fans keeps the sport coming back every year.

it's a pity the 'gap' is not smaller. 5 points is just a little bit too much, Lewis should easily get into top 5, even though last year it was a similar situation. I wonder if the teammates will or can do something 'bad' during the start. But I doubt the forum would survive then... ![]() |

Anyway: Last race of Coulthard probably last race of Barrichello last race of grooved tires |

Because I heard that a few days and I've since heard that they'll probably keep Rubens with Bruno as tester for a year |

Probably about a week or two old JB, I've heard the Bruno as a tester one as well but that's about the same age. |

Quote: Honda has been waiting around for Alonso but it is increasingly clear that Fernando is not going to move across to the Brackley team. This means that Rubens Barrichello has a good chance to stay as there is no obvious replacement as Alexander Wurz is not interested in moving up from being test driver. The team will test some young bloods in the coming months, including Bruno Senna and some his GP2 rivals but logic suggests that Barrichello is probably a better package, if he can convince the team that he is still super-motivated. There is a possibility that Piquet might join the team if he is thrown out although one could still argue that Barrichello makes more sense than Nelson. http://www.grandprix.com/ns/ns20919.html |

I think Rubens deserves another year to be honest, China was just another demonstration of how he tends to outperform Button. |

Take a personal radio to listen to the race and sit at a corner which is known for action and if you can don't sit too far away from a tv screen (if possible). I always like to know what is happening in the race. Man I am nervous about this race. I really hope history does not repeat itself. Surely not... Surely... |
