F1 (also like WRC and MotoGP)

I watch every race of all three series

Been watching F1 for 18 years (started in high school!)

Ferrari - M Schumacher, Button, Kimi, Speed
Subaru - Solberg, Gali, Gronholm
Repsol Honda - Hayden, and of course Val Rossi the great doctor

Toyota & BMW, only driver I don't like is JPM

1-what is your favorite motorsport - F1, ALMS (including LeMans), CART (in that order)

2-how often to you watch - F1 absolutely every race live on TV, and go to Canada every year. Have also been to Monza. Watch ALMS when I can and like to watch as much of LeMans as I can. CART, when its convienent.

3-how long have you been watching - F1 since the late 1970's. CART and ALMS since the mid 1980's.

4-who is your favorite driver/team - Drivers - Alboreto, Villeneuve (Gilles), Prost, Senna, Schumacher (Michael obviously), Gurney (never saw him race though) - Team - You mean there is any team but Ferrari?

5-what is your least favorite formula - NASCAR Truck Series. Come on, trucks? The next thing they will race is trailer homes!

F1, Champ Car (Atlantics included), ALMS

Any race I can see...

3-how long have you been watching

almost religiously for 4 years, but off and on before that

4-who is your favorite driver/team

Kimi Raikkonen and McLaren Mercedes, and now Transnet racing since I'm working for them

5-what is your least favorite formula

NASCAR... even more after the blatant disrespect that Jimmy Spencer showed to the F1 drivers during the commentary before the NASCAR race..

TV - F1, ALMS
Live - watching spec miatas duke it out. No rules, just right. And any SCCA events.
Me driving - DE . I have thought about going to one of the 2 day race license schools. I have a b'day in June (Randall seemed to do pretty good on the b'day haul) so maybe I'll go for it.

after the first really exciting grand prix of the season it as to be F1 back on top of my list, Le Mans 24 hours is something you have to be at least once in your life time.

I will miss the citroen team in the rally, but Peugeot will be back at le Mans with apparently a diesel engine (Audi also apparently)

the Paris-Dakar is also quite exiting, i nearly run it in the eighties

Alain Prost Cocoricooo!!
and in the new lads, Alonso, Raikkonen and the son of keke Rosberg who was splendid last sunday in F1

Sebastien Loeb in Rally

the most boring to watch is probably the BTCC or similar which was so good in the early years, what a shame but the top teams are gone now and who wants to follow a team like skoda?
