A1GP, Eastern Creek.

Well I was there yesterday (Saturday) and I must say WOW!
TV does zero justice for these cars and once seeing them in person and what they can do (much like F1 and Indy cars etc) you definitly appreciate them alot more.

For entry on saturday was $40 and race day $55, everything else was so cheap as well.
3 beers was $10
Flags $10
Shirts started from $40
I came away with alot, damm promo girls and beer don't mix :p

But you can see why France is on top, when everyone else was packed up and other support races were on France were out in pit lane practicing there pit stop, and changing tyres, and new front nose cone and more front wing or less back wing just over and over again.
Good on them.

There was alot of people there on Saturday, I'm heading off there soon today, I hope there is double there today then yesterday (weather is much better today in Sydney)

Thats my article for today!

WHy only ONE DAMM BEER TENT! :thumbdwn:

I was sitting on the hill inbetween the straight and the first corner.
Saw Mr Japan get unsteady and then try to correct it, by the time he corrected it he ran out of road and was heading off the road at 275Km/h!

Thank god he turned otherwise he would of hit the wall head on about 180Km/h and well that wouldn't of been good.

Seeing him bounce off the concrete wall once flipping was scary, then I ran over to the crash site and his whole anti-roll bar (above his head) wasn't there! AMAZING!!!

Nicolas La'Pire (sp) is a great driver, Will did well aswell.

I didn't see the sprint race, but the feature race looked good. Aussies picked up 6th which is pretty good. Damn that French team is just running away with it. Great driving and a great team.

Hey Nogz, did you see how they got him out of the car?
It was amazing.

They train them to take the whole seat out with the driver in it, incase his back or neck is broken or damaged.

Safety these days is fantastic.
