Something a bit different - speedway, the young pole in this vid (Marcin Rempala) currently rides for my team - Ipswich Witches - bare in mind when watching this video that these bikes accelerate faster on shale than a F1 car does on tarmac, they have a single fixed gear - AND NO BRAKES AT ALL!
These guys have balls the size of melons and so much skill and balance imo

Haven't looked at the first one and the second one is now so over used it has unfortunately become a bit of a cliche. It is still probably the greatest F1 battle ever and for 2nd place too.
Another favourite of mine though, is Mansell wheel to wheel, sparks flying, with that evil Brazil nut. A rather enduring image too i'm sure you'll agree Jimbo.
Btw

because rossi used to be so so much better than anyone else, that he used to be able to make a spectical of it, now he has to be much more focused IMO and cant ride like he used too

My fave is Rossi getting a 10 second penalty at IIRC Philip Island so needed to come first by more than the 10 secs. Which he did.

God, that nearly bought a tear to the eye. The man the Italians called The Lion versus his evil arch nemesis.
Williams winning and in the correct livery and McLarens in the right colours too.
Proper cars, the proper width with proper tires and grown-ups at the wheel, AND Hunt commentating with Walker, AND it was on the BBC where it belonged with no adverts and proper theme music.
Absolute F1 gold.
I used to watch and record every second of all F1 coverage. I hate it now and never ever watch it at all.

Good god that is the most impressive bit of racing i've seen in years. Every car out there must have a sample of every other car's paint
The bloke in the camera car is a loony and a great driver. So close to the wall on the start line straight too.
