Don't worry, BANANAGP... I think i'm the oldest here Yellow_Colorz_PDT_21 ...
I was in Rio, 1983, for Brazilian GP when I was 12 :roll: ...
In 1984 I WAS THERE TOO: FIRST AYRTON, THE BEST, GP.

On TV, 1975 I think... :roll:

you watched races with fatal accidents... i couldnt imagine having watched livaces and seeing such horrific scenes!

im so glad safety has improved, seeing some of the fatal crashes makes me feel sick in the stomache! theres a particularly terrible clip on youtube which was made in memory of alldrivers who lost their lives!

the worst i witnessed live was schumacher in the wall at silverstone 99, breaking his legs... luciano burti at spa breaking his legs, panis in canada doing the same thing and then ralf's crash at indianapolis 04 when he was KO'd!
and all of them were freaky enough...

My first race was the 2002 Australian Grand Prix, and i instantly fell in love with the mclaren, one becasue the McLaren f1 is my favourite car and two their paintjob was awesome.

at least, that incident served for something positive.

You are always late to everything

trust that to be the reason you love Fisichella

.

My first race live was at Monza '87. My dad took me to the track for the weekend and I got to met my hero. I have since given all my autographs from that weekend to Dark_Fisico

.

As an Italian I could be right in saying the first race I ever watched would be the first Ayrton Senna drove in F1. Since I was born in '84. I was also at the track in Imola at his last which put me off F1 for a year or so but when I moved to England I soon got back into it :mrgreen:.

I remember having watched some parts of races in 1997 (9 years old) but my addiction began between 1999 and 2000 :twisted:

1st F1 race i ever watched was the 2005 monaco grand prix, formula 1 really kicks nascar in the ass I never thought i would admit that but it does. there are no drivers in formula 1 that i dislike i respect every one of them especially the young guys. Anyway formula 1 is now my passion and sunday am love....
