Black Flag Racing: Formula 1 back to the Past?
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2008/12/formula-1-back-to-past.html
Monday, December 8, 2008. Formula 1 back to the Past? Don't know if you've seen the new Formula One aero packages. That were tested in Barcelona, but the first thing I thought of when I saw them was that it was a cool return to the look of the 80's. Big flat wide front wings, actual slick tires, narrow high rear wings. I really like the look. The only other thing they'd need is the brilliant shower of sparks off the start line!

Black Flag Racing: Looking forward to Edmonton
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2008/03/looking-forward-to-edmonton.html
Thursday, March 27, 2008. Looking forward to Edmonton. Official confirmation, but everyone's best guess is that the Edmonton Grand Prix. Will retain its date in the new consolidated Champ Car / IRL calendar. Edmonton has carried the torch from the defunct Vancouver Indy by offering a runway course rather than public street circuit and now represents the lone Canadian race. Drivers will be put in three groups by weight. Drivers in the lightest group will have weight added to their cars. Series off...Looki...

Black Flag Racing: Red Bull Describes Rule Changes
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2009/02/red-bull-describes-rule-changes.html
Saturday, February 7, 2009. Red Bull Describes Rule Changes. In a nifty computer animation, Red Bull shows what their new car looks like, while describing the differences from last years cars to this year. A nice series of 'exploded' (design-type, not Michael Bay type) looks at the car, and transformations from the old car to the new one. See it at Racing-live, for now: http:/ multimedia.f1-live.com/f1/en/videos/. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). NASCAR Ranting and Raving.

Black Flag Racing: Quick Picks for the big weekend
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2008/05/quick-picks-for-big-weekend.html
Sunday, May 25, 2008. Quick Picks for the big weekend. I've had these rattling around in my head for the past week, getting more and more confident as Sunday approached:. Monaco GP: Hopefully we'll get our first wet race of the year and Lewis Hamilton will remind the world of his capabilities. Outside chance: Mark Webber. Mark and Red Bull are typically in fine form at Monaco and a damp track should clear out enough spots up front to make his quali position less of an issue. Posted by Jay Jardine. Indy l...

Black Flag Racing: We're at Sonoma already?
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2008/06/were-at-sonoma-already.html
Saturday, June 21, 2008. We're at Sonoma already? Last year I took one of my favourite road trips of all time. The really cool thing about road courses is that you get an entirely novel group of drivers up at the top of the charts for once. Guys like Said, Ambrose, Gord.wait, what's this.Kasey's on the pole? Cripes. Ah, we'll see how he looks in race trim. My bets are squarely on the California Gordons. Jeff needs a win badly (or is another crew chief shake up in store. Posted by Jay Jardine.

Black Flag Racing: "Oh, Horse's Arse!"...as my Great Aunt used to say
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2008/09/oh-horses-arseas-my-great-aunt-used-to.html
Monday, September 8, 2008. Oh, Horse's Arse! As my Great Aunt used to say. Leave it to the Formula 1 stewardship to ruin what would otherwise be the most thrilling conclusion to a race in years. The question this now infamous tale of tape. Raises for me is, how much more ground do you cede to a guy you just jumped a chicane on? Gridcrasher has the viddies. Posted by Jay Jardine. As for the 'double move' that Kimi did, I put that down to more a 'whoa! Is he still right there! Hamilton did do a great job h...

Black Flag Racing: Formula WTF
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2009/03/formula-wtf.html
Friday, March 27, 2009. File under unexpected headlines:. WILLIAMS, TOYOTA, BRAWN BEST IN AUSTRALIAN GP PRACTICE. This certainly throws my round 1 fantasy picks. Constructors - BMW Sauber. First Win - Rosberg. Now this is where I always get confused - the quali is scheduled for Saturday at 1:55 AM EST, which means on the west coast it's actually late Friday night? Button, Barrichello take the front row. I'm speechless. Think Honda would love to have their red lettering across those engine bays? Pretty un...

Black Flag Racing: Countdown to Daytona: Quick Picks
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2009/02/two-weeks-till-daytona.html
Sunday, February 1, 2009. Countdown to Daytona: Quick Picks. I started intensely following NASCAR around 1990, so I've seen a few mild recessions but no major economic meltdown. Even the oil crisis. Bankruptcy years came at a time when NASCAR was still a regional curiousity rather than a respected north american pro sport brand. How then will layoffs and belt-tightening along pit road affect the standings? In any event, here's some quick picks for my Yahoo Fantasy Team. He's pretty much the focus of atte...

Black Flag Racing: Jacques opens mouth, provides insightful comment
http://black-flagged.blogspot.com/2008/10/jacques-opens-mouth-provides-insightful.html
Friday, October 17, 2008. Jacques opens mouth, provides insightful comment. Former world champion Jacques Villeneuve believes that of Formula One's three current title contenders, Robert Kubica is the most deserving this year. The BMW driver closed to within 12 points of Lewis Hamilton and seven of Felipe Massa after finishing second in the Japanese Grand Prix, while both his rivals incurred penalties in a race where both made mistakes. Can you spot a World Champion's vapour trail in the chart below?
